The issue with drubzyy's run
3 years ago
Brazil

I was a bit confused when I saw the time of 1:34.583 (since I don't think that time is actually possible unless drubzyy got a fast accel framerule and somehow choked at the end), and then I saw the run. As it turns out, it seems that the mobile emulator drubzyy was using actually has faster load times than other computer emulators. I took TheRudy's run (on the left) and compared it to drubzyy's run (that is on the right) and started each run at the same time

It is really obvious during the transition from 1-1 to 1-2, where Rudy touches the castle first before drubzyy does and yet somehow drubzyy's level screen shows up first I am not trying to discredit drubzyy's run, but I do think it is really unfair that a run that was technically faster ends up being slower because of unfair loadtimes. We either need to make a time converter between these emulators or ban mobile emulators since their loadtimes are so much faster.

tl:dr, mobile emulators have way faster loadtimes, so we gotta do something about this.

No problem. Might want to add a list of emulators that are allowed to be used.
