Run submission - How to set player 1 as your account and delete "You Are"?

So this was something I have been stuck on for quite some time. I scrolled up and down constantly under Edit Game, but to no avail. I have asked the supermod of another game I run how he was able to do it, but he didn't even remember how it was done. Any help will be tremendously appreciated. :)

Are you asking if you can remove the feature? You can't delete that option. It's what allows you as a moderator to submit runs on behalf of other users.

Or are you having trouble submitting a run for yourself?

More context? What are you trying to do, could try to help but I'm not really sure what you want to do lol

So essentially, I'm trying to set it so that it defaults Player 1 to the submitter's account. For example:

https://prnt.sc/jeynto Here is the submission page of the game I am a supermod of. As you can see, there is a Player 1 tab, which is open for you to write anything in there. The "You Are" tab has the option of just Player 1 (as that is the max amount I have it set to.) When I select Player 1, it comes up with my name. I want to make it so that it defaults it to the account of whoever is submitting.

https://prnt.sc/jeyo0q Here is a game I run. As you can see, what I am trying to accomplish has already been done here. It defaults Player 1 to my account, and there is no "You Are" tab.

Sorry for any confusion I caused earlier.

What's the game? Is it a two player game? I've never seen this as an option for one player games..

It's Chibi-Robo. I have it set as only 1 player for the category, and yet it comes up with this. I never quite understood why.

Like @6oliath said, it only shows up when your a mod so you can submit runs on behalf of others while if your not a mod it doesnt show up because your not supposed to submit runs for others

^ that. As a regular user I went to the game and nothing seems out of place. My name autofilled the “Player 1” box like normal.

...oh .-.

Well if that's the case, thanks everyone for your help lmao. Didn't even think to check while not logged in.

Also in regards to what @6oliath said, I read it but at first didn't even realize what was being said lol. Dragged the thread out longer than it needed to be. Thanks again.
