Hey all, long time no see, today I verified some runs done by Willop that used a glitch that makes the map small, to quote: "This is using the Mixed Tribe Easter Egg and a glitch that I found, which makes the map as small as possible."
Do we think this should be a separate category, or do we think the main leader-boards should incorporate this into the current one?
This is not a dig, quite the opposite, Well done for finding a glitch in this game!
but this does need to be accounted for, any responses are good but I'd like to hear feedback on it ~Acro
There is a timer in the video that states 51 seconds, quite clearly you've just taken the length of the video and set it to that.
The rules state "timing starts on world spawn" and that's when my timer starts, so what's the problem?
Hello all! It was brought to my attention earlier on today by a site admin, I am not as active as I used to be, and take considerably longer to review runs now. I realise that there is on a few (still active) polytopia runners and whilst I would like us to expand in numbers, I think it would be right if I were to add some other moderators to this game. If you want to apply for moderator, reply to this post and I will consider you for this role.
Another point (and the latter half of the title) a couple of runs on this board are very short, this is because of the slight oversight (on a few people's behalfs) that means AI effectively won't attack you on easy mode, meaning you can spam end turn to gain stars, so I am considering enforcing a "hard" level rule for all categories, this unfortunately would effect most of the runs on this board, although I could simply only enforce it on the categories (the star category for instance) that very much exploit this.
Reply with your thoughts on a difficulty, if you want to be a moderator, and if you think a discord server would be beneficial to this community
Thanks for all the runs, ~Acro
GalacticGuard, just in case you didn't know, I cannot verify your run unless I have access to the videos which appear to currently be on private mode, thanky you for submitting runs however, good luck!
Hello and welcome to the Polytopia speedrun forum!
Most of the rules are laid out on the individual categories but if anything need some clarification please post it on the forum
All runs need a video as evidence, a screen recorder is preferable (check the resources) but any camera capable device is allowed to record with
I will try and verify runs as soon as I get them but this may not be instantly
I hope you enjoy your time here and look forward to seeing your runs!

Here I suggest we could put view sync links to videos that had runs relatively close to each other
here is mysterio vs bamz0rs vs me (frame glitch) vs me (alt+f4) - https://viewsync.net/watch?v=8PtQ8k5qrGY&t=22&v=ZijmUJainCU&t=32&v=hNkNqM_RB64&t=27&v=SnZ7z2zmdXc&t=16
I am aware that 2 of these runs are not moderated yet, this is mainly as a bit of fun to see various techniques, and the speed at witch certain segments happen
Hello all, I had some ideas for new speedrun categories, tell me what you think!:
•All music discs (co-op potential) •All horse armour •All mobs (kill one of each mob except bosses) •Kill Wither Co-Op •All structures (mine a block from each generated structure in minecraft)
thank you for your time
