Choosing the Default Platform

I'm going to make a support hub ticket with this, but I thought I'd also make it a thread so that people can discuss. I also believe that this has been requested in the past.

It would be really nice if moderators could choose what the default platform for a game is. In the game mobility, almost all of the runs are done on PC, and a few of them are done on web. There is one run that is done on a PSVita port of the game. Even though PC is the most common category, PSVita is the default platform for some reason, and there is no way to change it. A lot of the time runners forget to change the platform field when submitting a run, and if we could choose the default, we would get less frequent submissions with incorrect platforms and save everyone time and energy.

This is requested for years.

Better still: there should be no default. All submitters should have to select the platform.

Your proposed solution of putting the more common platforms as default doesn't address the problem that users can forget to change it, and in some cases could make the problem worse like with runs where the platform is hard to distinguish based on video alone.

[quote=Merl_]save everyone['s] time and energy.[/quote] You have to click 2 buttons? Unless finding out what platform they are on is the issue I think what @6oliath said should be added

This should also be added to the date, tons of runners don't select it. so normally I check the upload date of the video and change it to that
