Uploading splits to a game's resources page gives me a following error: "That is the wrong file type. It must be a .zip, .7z, .rar, or .lss file.", but the file I am trying to upload, is in fact an .lss file.

edit: ah, I see, sorry then :P

@Renusek It's on the bug list.

I have the feeling not all runs are shown on leaderboards, for whatever reason.

http://speedrun.com/ae2 I was checking Ape Escape 2's Leaderboards, and there were fewer any% runs than I remember, unproofed, and instead of 6+ runners, there are 4 All Monkeys runners, same for 100%. I did remember a certain runner and went to his profile. https://www.speedrun.com/user/TOTOzigemm

If you go all the way down, you see he's 43th in Any% and 4th in 100%, yet he isn't on the boards.

@Riekelt Further inspecting the run, it looks like some key information was missing too when opening the run. When looking at the reviewed run without editing, I noticed the runners name, date of the run and name of the moderator were all not showing up.

I did manage to make it appear by changing the date to yesterday, to test. Since I noticed that the run in particular had a date of "30-11-2019". I think another user mentioned there is a bug with runs that have a date set in the future, but its strange because this run seems to be performed in 2016. No clue how that happened.

Either way, for some reason after that action, the date itself got adjusted too to the original date which was 08-10-2016 and the name of the runner and mod, as well as the date returned back too.

I'll do some testing on a test board and see if I can replicate what happened.

I believe its a bug with runs that dont have set dates, most of my old runs that dont have a date arent actually showing up on the respective leaderboards even though they are still tied to my profile.

If a user donated the site and got banned, the text "Banned" and "Donated $X" will overlap.

Currently every few hours the site logs me out and forces me to log back in. Logging back in requires email 2FA, and half the time this e-mail doesn't even send, forcing me to keep on trying until an e-mail actually does send (and even then sometimes it says the code is invalid).

Was submission date on runs always a mandatory field, and also has it changed recently in display behaviour for runs which do not have this populated, as some of the older legacy runs on the FF13 leaderboard recently went missing, and as far as we can tell the play date is the only thing that wasn't populated correctly on them. We have now gone through and placed sufficiently old legacy dates on the runs we've been able to track down but it would be nice if we could get some correction applied across the board, or the restriction changed.

so, on the Crosscode leaderboard the Current any% time is a 31 but it's showing the old 38 for me, everyone else sees the new PB but me. I'm not sure why that is. Just figured it would pop in and report this

United States

Played on date > Current date. Give it a bit and it'll show when it turns the 5th for whichever timezone the site uses (EST? I forget)

Edit: Yup, exactly the issue. It's there now.

So there is some bug with the sorting algorithm. If you view all games by total players like here https://www.speedrun.com/games#platform=&orderby=mostplayers&unofficial=off you will see Super Mario Odyssey has 2800 players and Ocarina of Time has 950 total players. However under the game's pages, Super Mario Odyssey has 1800 total players here https://www.speedrun.com/smo/gamestats and Ocarina of Time has 1500 total players here https://www.speedrun.com/oot/gamestats

Different places using different methods to count. Not a bug, just inconsistent.

@Habreno I have been following the most spedrun games by various measures for over a year. On May 2, 2019, SR.com said that SMO had 1622 players and OoT had 1450. On September 1, 2019, SR.com said that SMO had 1753 players and OoT had 1486. These numbers matched the numbers on the statistics page under the game. Thus in 4 months SMO had gained 131 players and OoT had gained 36. Today SR.com says SMO has 2807 players and OoT has 953. That means that in 3 months SMO had to have gained 1054 players and OoT had to have LOST 533 players. As someone with a strong following in SMO I can tell you there's no way it could've hit numbers like those this fall. And there's been no massive ban or any reason OoT would have lost anywhere close to that many players. However if we go to the stats page under the games we see SMO has 1808 players and OoT has 1513 players. This would mean in the past 3 months SMO gained 55 players and OoT gained 27 players. These are much more reasonable numbers.

If the numbers aren't "glitched" and are in counting players differently, how do they count it? Because I can't think of a single way to measure it so SMO has only 23 less players than SM64 and OoT has less players than Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy.

Algorithims, and I don't know them offhand.

Not sure if this has been mentionned before, but with the new markdown system there are some issues if you add images in category rules :

https://i.gyazo.com/a32d811cd4fe6b5ebef1eb80e57fa2d5.png

As you can see, the image goes outside of the box.

Also, another thing i've noticed : so you have the lists, you can see the little circles (or whatever they are) next to each element of the lists ; If you haven't edited rules in a while, the circles won't show and you'll get a " - " instead. However, if you go to the settings, edit and save, the " - " changes to circles.

EDIT : It seems like the images going outside of the box comes from lists, because for each list element it adds some padding to the right. Images aren't resized as well, so if they're too big, it gets even worse.

@xDrHellx It's on the bug list. It also happens in the Audit Log with text.

I don’t know if this is known or not, so I’m sorry if it’s been noticed. The “moderators” tab doesn’t appear on “Edit Series” pages.

I think this is the right place to post this, but I'm not sure. I don't know if this is only happening to me, but when I try to go to my profile page (gui.jpeg) it gives out an 404 error. It's happening both on my computer (even when in incognito mode) and in my phone browser. It started happening when I changed my username, I believe.

Going to second the problem with the recent date field change. I think that it's probably reasonable to require a date for current/future submissions (though I think that mods should still be able to add dateless runs), but not showing any run without a date on the leaderboards, when there are many legacy runs without dates for many games, is a pretty major bug.

As for how this would interact with leaderboard snapshots (show runs at or before X date) a run with an unknown date could just be assumed to be too recent. I suspect the bug is from treating Date: Current as "show all runs at or before today's date" when it should just show all runs.
