Hey Im looking for games I can speed run on pc or iOS that I can speed run, but because I'm lazy I don't want to record, they should preferably have an in game timer, and be somewhat easy to learn
Dungeon Defenders Individual Levels, the game has an ingame-timer so you can just make a screenshot of the end-screen & use that as evidence.
It's a very bad thing that there are still games which don't need any kind of video proof for verification. If you are claiming to have beaten a game in a certain time you should prove that, period. Not with a picture which can be photoshopped and furthermore not with a screenshot of your splits, because this is no proof at all. everyone can create splits without even doing the run in the first place. No video -> not getting verified. My opinion.
Not everyone is capable of recording video, and to outright reject a submission just because there's a possibility of it being manipulated/shopped isn't the way to go imo. although I agree that just screenshotting your splits isn't enough for evidence, when a game has an ingame timer that is possible to be used, I don't see any reason not to use it.
"Guilty until proven innocent" is not the way to go.

For WR a video should be required in my opinion. Just using your phone to record and upload is enough. I can with ease forge screenshots, making it look like real if not very carefully examinated.
