@SpiderHako Oh, my bad. Thanks for pointing it out.
Go to the game page, click "Edit game", go to the "Categories" tab and click "New Category".
Yesterday I realised the option to add pronouns to your profile (either in a profile bio or a specific pronoun field) is first and foremost helpful to people who are aware of gender issues anyway but isn't able to change the mentality of certain people in the community over night. I see so many streamers greet new followers with "Welcome, man!" or say things like "Let's go, boys!" even if they know women and non-binary people are watching their streams. It's because we are used to the idea that every gamer, speedrunner, etc. is a cis man. But that's not the case. I'm aware the majority of gamers in general and speedrunners in particular is male but that doesn't make it right. Especially when you consider how hurtful it is for trans people to be addressed with the wrong gender. Regardless of intent, getting called "man" just hurts me and that even happened to me with people who know I'm a girl. So am I saying adding pronouns to profiles is useless because of the mentality many people have? Not at all. I'm fully aware it won't change things overnight and it won't stop people from being intentionally hurtful. But it could raise awareness for the fact that there are in fact gamers and speedrunners who are not male, for the fact that the speedrunning community is diverse (not only) in regards to gender. If, for example, people would see users in this fourum with "she/her" or "they/them" pronouns on a daily basis (which should be seen under the profile picture or when you hover over the username in my opinion) it would hopefully slowly change our assumption that gamers and speedrunners are male by default. And I hope this will lead to more people using more gender neutral language. It's so easy to say "Welcome, friend!" or "Let's go, folks!", it's a small thing with a big impact for certain people in the community.
Bienvenue. Amuse-toi speedrunning
Welcome. Enjoy speedrunning.
Bienvenue et bonne chance sur tes speedruns.
Welcome and good luck on your speedruns.
Welcome! Go to the game page and click "Submit run". Almost all games require video proof so you have to include a link to a video of your run which you have to upload on an external site like YouTube or Vimeo. For your game the page should be: https://www.speedrun.com/chip_n_dale_rescue_rangers_2
In this FAQ several options are discussed, many people use OBS.

You need upload your video on an external site like YouTube or Vimeo and link the video in your run submission.
I'd like to request a new category called All Pearls where you have to beat the game as fast as possible while also collecting all pearls in the game. If I have counted correctly there should be 22 pearls (9 Power Pearls and 13 Range Pearls) in the game. Here's my test run for this category in which I did a lot of mistakes so there's much room for improvement:
I'd love to see this category added and would be excited to see how others run it and how low we can push the time on this run. If people are interested in running this category I'd be happy to post a guide explaining how many pearls can be found in each level and which chests to avoid because they're empty.
With signing up here I'd say you just did join the speedrunning community. Welcome and good luck on your runs! ⭐
Thank you very much for your feedback @Oreo321 and @SpiderHako. Yes, Credits% is unnecessary indeed. It was meant as a joke but maybe that kind of joke is better suited for my YouTube channel and not for the game page. 🙈
Hello fellow and future runners of this weirdly fun game. If you want any categories added, for example Mirror Mode or the individual tracks, please don't hesitate to say so as I will add them gladly if people request it.
Welcome! Do you already know which games you would like to run? Good luck on all of your future runs! ⭐
My request for a new game got approved (Yay!) and I would like to ask if any mods with experience of setting up a game page would take a look at it to see if I've done it properly? This is my first time setting up a game page and my first game to moderate as well so I'd really appreciate the feedback! Here's the link:

Also, I have a question regarding editing the game's theme: what does "banner" and "icon" replace? I changed both and couldn't see any changes.
Thanks in advance! 💜
My game request has been approved! It's Bibi Blocksberg: Big Broom Race 3, a weirdly fun and funnily weird Mario Kart clone. I'd love some competition in this game so feel free to speedrun it: https://www.speedrun.com/bigbroomrace3 😊
Welcome and congrats on submitting your first run.
I got into speedrunning because I love Super Mario Land, I have played this Gameboy game as a child and have beaten it casually numerous times. At some point I saw the TAS for that game and that sparked my interest in speedrunning so here I am.
