Hi, I moderate a game and want to submit a run for WR history purposes on behalf of a runner who deleted their account. It seems like, despite deleting their account, they registered again under the same username and used the account for a couple days, so attempting to put the username in the Player field forces it to be tracked under that account. They had submitted to the same category before with the previous account, but now both runs are showing up on the board, and I don't know how to fix it without also editing the old run. Here is the board in question: https://www.speedrun.com/wl2?h=Main_Story-Glitched&x=ndx1n52q-9l79p7n1.jqznnvgq
Ideally I would be able to put the username in as an unregistered player so it doesn't have to be linked to this other account. Other runs of theirs have been submitted in another game (Super Marisa World) earlier this year, and it shows up properly there (unregistered player, no user link), so maybe an update removed this feature, but I hope I'm just missing something.
Edit: title is a bit misleading, "register" should say "submit"
Put [] in front of their name which turns them into a guest.
You then could add a country code between these brackets, which gives them a flag on the leaderboard.
You can get a country code from the URL of people's flags on the site.
Here's an example: https://www.speedrun.com/granny/runs/me9d682z
This worked, thanks! At first it still didn't obsolete the old run, so I had to edit that one as well to be explicitly unregistered. Thankfully there were only the 2 runs. I just wish this was a more obvious feature
Okay I recently have trouble trying to register "unregistered player" on a game name Feeding Frenzy 2. Someone from China broke the WR on FF2 and I want to register the name. It works on Feeding Frenzy 1 but not on the second one. Why is that?
