VietnamOk so there's a 2 days long testing for pvp mode and I think speedrunning with this would be crazy, you can flood other enemies and then win the game asap or be in a party with your friend and having your friend throwing the game for you so you can get a faster time, basically just hypixel speedruns but in TDS, thoughts?
Have you ever had a speedrun rejected by a verifier? Are you unsure how to submit a correct one? Or did a verifier need to edit your submission because the category was wrong? Here's a simple guide on how to properly submit speedruns.
Uploading the run itself
Please submit your run only on YouTube or Twitch; submissions through any other platforms will get your run rejected. Additionally, make sure that your video is a displayable link.
"What is a displayable link?" For example, you have two YouTube links. If you submit the first link on speedrun.com and it only shows as a link without displaying the video itself, it's not embedded and that is not displayable. However, if the second link you submit shows as an embedded, directly playable video on speedrun.com, and doesn't appear as a hyperlink, then congratulations! It's a displayable link you submitted!
The speedrun itself
Your recording should be stars before wave 1 starts and spans all the way to the end of the final wave with NO CUTS and NO EDITS, meaning if you start your recording after wave 1 starts, your run will be rejected and if your run ends before the victory screen is shown, your run will also be rejected. Additionally, your gameplay must be recorded at the default speed; any alteration in playback speed, either sped up or slowed down, will result in immediate rejection of your run.
Real time vs In Game Time
Real time is the total duration of your recording, and in-game time is the time shown on the victory screen. When you submit a game run, use the in-game time as the main timer. This means you should enter the time from the victory screen into the in-game time section.
For example, you completed a Molten speedrun in 11:18, but your video is 13:05 long because you recorded the time you spent in the lobby, intermissing, map voting, and choosing the game mode, then 11:18 is your accurate in-game time, and 13:05 is the real time, therfore you should put 11:18 in your in-game time box.
Types of Towers
This is a common mistake I see when someone submits a run. If your game involves only non-special towers, then it's a "no special towers" run, you cannot submit it in other categories because you did not use any special towers. That goes for the "no event towers" category, DO NOT submit a record for the "event tower run" category if you didn't use an event tower, your submission will only be valid in the "event tower run" category if it includes at least one event tower.
If you're unsure about what counts as regular towers or special towers, please refer to my other guide thread for more details. You can find it here. Btw consumables & timescale tickets are banned.
If you can't find the answers here and have more questions, feel free message me, I'm always here to help you. Thank you for spending your time reading, and have fun speedrunning!

Its JOEVER (not my run btw shoutout to @NotJofe125 for performing this)
Hello everyone, I've been growing frustrated with the frequent submissions of runs selecting the wrong tower types. To address this issue, I've created this thread to serve as a guide on tower categorization.
All Towers:
All Towers are all are exclusively available for a limited time during in-game events. Some common examples include Gladiator, Sledger, and Swarmer. Notably, Warden and Cowboy do not fall under this category, as Pizza Party and Badlands 2 are permanent modes.
No Exclusive Towers (Special Towers):
Special are those found in the Hardcore, Golden, and Event Tower categories. If you've used event towers in your run, please submit under the All Towers category. Notably, towers like Mercenary Base and Pursuit are not considered special towers (this is a controversial topic, so this is just for now) since they don't belong to the hardcore or golden tower groups. To the surprise of some newcomers, Warden and Cowboy also do not qualify as special towers because Warden can be unlocked using in-game coins, and neither tower is featured in exclusive towers categories.
No Special Towers:
If you've carefully read the information above, you'll know that special towers are those that can be unlocked without any exclusivity restrictions. Common examples include Shotgunner, Farm, Commander, and DJ Booth.
TL;DR : Warden and Cowboy are not event towers, they're not special towers either, so is Crook Boss, Turret, Mortar, Pursuit and Mercenary Base
Idek smth like reach half game, reach wave 40, max a tower or smth blah blah blah
Last time i created a thread asking the worst possible run so figured out that id do best possible :P
Has there been a run that actually was cheated? Like hacks scripts client used or changed data something similar
