Sorry to disturb everyone - but why is my 3:50 run taken down? I saw the mod note said it's temporarily - but why?

Because it was spliced.

@speeeeeeedy How do you know?

@Sir_Farcelot I have proof but I don't think the mods want me to tell everyone yet.

I agree, we should at least be given a reason!

idk why the mods aren't posting anything about it but I don't want to post the proof because cheaters will just come and make better cheated runs. But I assure you there is very good proof. I'm sure the mods will find some way to prove it without letting future cheaters know how to cheat better.

Honestly, I'm going to treat my run as second place until I am told a reason. Sorry @speeeeeedy, but this is just my opinion.

You haven't really given a reason for why this run was taken down. I think that the evidence should be posted so that we can come to a solid conclusion.

I'm not a mod so I can't share the info but if you want to you can ask the mods to let me make the proof public.

United States

I have... but they're a lot less active now.

United States

Now that @speeeeeeedy is a mod, will the evidence be revealed?

yes, one moment

New Standards of Proof

Due to a recent cheating situation, I feel that top runs should have more proof.

  1. Any top 10 full game runs now needs a video of at least 20 minutes of attempts submitted along with it.

  2. any top 50% individual level submission now must have the replay code in the description or, if it's too lo
