With the recent friendly competition ariamelio and I have going on, we've noticed some differences between our versions of the game. I'm not quite sure it's an iOS vs Android situation but it seems most likely as I'm on an Android device and she's on an iOS device. Ariamentio's version not only has 4 additional categories to play as she's mentioned in the description of her runs, but the timer also pauses during the various checkpoints scattered throughout the levels. Meanwhile I only have access to the levels up to Tricky Treat and my timer keeps going continuously until the end of the level. The category thing can be resolved easily, but the timer pausing in checkpoints is a different issue. Personally, I'm not bothered by it much because many games have version differences that are advantageous to runners with that certain version of the game, and if you spam through the checkpoints it doesn't add up to much time saved if at all. But, I just thought I'd bring it to the mods' attention that this game doesn't seem to be the same for everyone.

Edit: it's probably just a version difference and not a device difference as getSlam's run on the Old School leaderboard doesn't pause in checkpoints either (and they played on iOS), but it's still important enough to make this forum thread lol

So you suggest seperating the leaderboards for iOS and Android? And if needed the different app build versions?

Or an RTA timer

RTA timer wouldn't work because lag is also an issue, but separating the leaderboards wouldn't be by device, it'd be by the game version. I don't think the disparity caused by the timer pausing is substantial by any means, but that's just my opinion and others may think otherwise. I am, however advocating for the addition of the 4 new categories so people with access to them can compete on those here on the leaderboards.

imo an rta timer limits the accessibility of this speedrun, as I’m not sure how to access one and neither do a lot of the runners probably, and I’d second addressing the timer disparity by separating runners by version instead of device, if you want I can help with determining which runs had checkpoint timer and which ones didn’t

I realize I'm outing myself as a moron here, but I don't understand how someone could get 50 seconds.
