Leaderboards moderation requests thread

Hi speedrun.com crew!

After my first Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 run was accepted, I quickly attempted five more runs. I submitted all five of them more than three weeks ago and none of them have been verified or declined. During the three weeks my runs have been awaiting verification, only one of the four mods have been online. One hasn't been online in over a year and another was last online the day their account was created. Oh yeah, and they're all supermods for some reason.

I posted a forum thread (since the most active mod doesn't have any linked accounts I can use to contact him) asking if any of the mods could either approve some of my runs or make me a mod. None of the mods replied. I saw the one mod was online at some point after I posted that I'd come here if nothing happened, so either he doesn't follow the game he moderates or he just chose to ignore it.

@Zeypher I would still submit your run as well :)

Edit - he removed his post

Hey! Just a post in regards to the Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events game. One of the mods has never submitted a run to the game, and the other last submitted a run two years ago. At the beginning of the month I posted a forum topic proposing a new category, and never got a response from either of them. One has not been online in three months but the other still comes onto the site regularly. It seems that, like in WhoIsWorm's RCT1 instance, they're either not following the game they mod, or choose to ignore it. I've sent the more active mod a message several days ago but, again, have received no response.

Hi, I’m Karatetiger10 and yesterday, I submitted a run to Escape the Car Original for the 100% run and haven’t heard anything yet. I’m wondering if someone could help my case.

@Karatetiger10 you need to wait at least 3 weeks for your run to not be verified before posting here. Yesterday really is not a lot of time for a mod of the game to verify a run. ^^

Hes still been inactive for 3 weeks and he doesn't seem to be very active on social media either

@Karatetiger10 You should still try to contact the current mod on social media

There seems to be a small community for https://www.speedrun.com/Marvel_Ultimate_Alliance/

The mods have NG+ runs in the NG Co-Op slot and no clarification of rules when myself and others are asking. Can I please be a moderator JUST to clean this up?

I would like Digimon World Next Order 100% to be added to the leader boards as I have had some trouble with the mods in the past about this run but I feel like it should be added since the time and effort has been put into it.

Hello!

I'd like to apply for the game No Touch (/No_Touch). There's a single mod, PrincessGriff, and they haven't been online since December 9th 2017. Their profile doesn't include any contact information either so I had no way of getting in touch.

I'm active on sr.com, I have the WR on that game (or, would have if it was verified) and would be willing to create a cute themed logo for the page and everything <3

Thanks for taking your time!

I would like to request moderator/verifier (not sure what the difference is) privileges for Pneuma: Breath of Life. https://www.speedrun.com/pbol/ I have numerous runs sitting unverified, the oldest was submitted 28 Feb 2018. Of the three extant mods, one has not logged into speedrun.com since January and the other two have not logged in since summer 2017.

We have runs waiting to be submitted for Co-OP NG and Co-Op NG+ for Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. We aren't going to submit before the current times remain unsorted. Right now the current Co-Op NG run is very obviously NG+.

Can the runs please be sorted out so that our times are compared accurately against the current records? Can anyone just move the Co-Op run to Co-Op NG+?

Hello, I submitted a run for Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder 3 weeks ago, but the Moderator (kobepilgim) has been inactive for nearly 3 months. I tried contacting them on twitter and twitch, but haven't gotten any response. Can someone please look into my submitted run? Thank you.

I’m having some trouble getting through to the Europa Universalis 4 super mod. While the game is not massively active I have suggested some new categories to which he created a strawpoll to put in the most popular ones (I guess).

That’s all fine and dandy. But he hasn’t responded ever since, hasn’t made any changes whatsoever, and even ignores my forum-posts. It’s been almost a month now and it’s really slowing everything massively down. He has even been online and verified runs. My point is that he definitely has seen my posts, but haven’t had the decency to discuss or even reply the last 24 days - and that’s a key mod-quality if there ever was one. As he has no other active social media connected to his profile, he really leaves me with no other option than to request his mod-position this way.

After all, it would be a shame if a perfectly complicated game like EU4 with sweet juicy RNG-based gameplay was diminished to a 10 seconds any% meme-run :)

Hi! I'd like to be a moderator for game "NosTale" This game doesn't exist in speedrun.com so would be very nice if i could be a moderator of this game. I could create a lot of categories like "get any class (15 level, 20 level of profession) as fast as possible", "win space-time as fast as possible" etc. Please contact me as soon as possible for details!

Hello, can I request to become a mod for the game Sheep, a ps1 game? Since the current mod has been inactive for a long while now and I was planning to start running the game.

There is a rom hack for the NES that i speedrun named Super Luigi Bros (I used to be mod in this game). A day ago i submitted a run (31.4) in the 1-1 Fire Luigi category that is faster than a tas someone created (31.83) and a speedrunner named Xein said that the run must be sped up because its not possible to beat the tas. Then he made a forum post about it and i was banned from the leaderboards and demodded. I wasnt cheating or speeding up the game and i uploaded a video comparing xeins, the tas, and my pb but the mods still say im cheating. Is there any way that you can help?

Going to jump in here and say I watched the video out of curiosity's sake and even with frame by frame analysis couldn't see anything fishy so I made a post to defend youtubeman and the mods pretty much just immediately moved to wanting to delete my posts and ban me. They won't provide proof of cheating and even deny simple proof that disproves every claim they can make, doesn't really seem like good moderation is taking place on the page.
