New Bloodpoint Category?

Yesterday, a big DBD youtuber named "Dowsey", released a video where he attempted to get 1 million bp only using survivor, and finished it around 5h 22m 04s. Personally, I believe I can beat that easily. Granted, he counted loading time and didn't do it according to standard dbd speedrun rules, but I think he sparked an interest with me and possibly a bunch of other players to want to do this. maybe rules for survivor would be no items or offerings and with killer no offerings, but I think it would be quite entertaining to see a longer format to a dbd run than the typical 1 round runs we see now.

As a DbD Player speaking, Yes. Its sounds great. I enjoy the idea of the challenge, and have done this before numerous times. I was also watching it yesterday when he did it on Twitch. He doesnt show the bit where the servers crash around 30 minutes in :p

Moderator wise there are numeorous issues.

  1. We are running out of space for new categories (Its why Mobile Speedruns were removed and with new killer coming out today its getting even tighter). Having a Solo Run, SWF Run Killer run etc would mean no more room for new Killer categories.

  2. All the best runs will be during BP events, or Festivals which makes WR runs potentially unbeatable a majority of the year. (Yesterday was the last day of 1.5x BP bloodhunt)

  3. As mentioned above, it would take a LONG time to verify.

  4. Save editing is a thing.

  5. I potentially would not be able to verify runs on stream due to copyright issues. If im watching someones videos for 3-4 hours then said streamer could report me to Twitch for breech of T&Cs (I could do it offstream, but you get the point). A 5-10 minute video is generally fine to get away with, but not if its 3-4 hours.

Long Story short, great idea on paper, but practically impossible.
