Hi, I'm the new mod here

I've checked the runs with wrong IGT and fixed those accordingly. If there's any wrong IGTs or RTA timing, feel free to let me know in this thread and I'll have a look at it. Thank you :)

Hey yall I just verified a bunch of SB's runs and I saw that the timing different between wiiu vc and normal DS is completely bullshit I've been fixing it manually before this, but honestly I don't think this is the right call, especially now that more runs seem to be done on wii u vc.

is it time to switch to igt?

Honestly I've had this feeling as soon as I started playing this game, but I feel like the in game timer is off -- and I will prove it.

After watching F1s run I don't see any reason to believe that that boost in the 2nd lap's tunnel was good enough to save 1.7s over me, even after many mistakes during the run. He slows down at the quick U-turn twice, which is at least a second per lap. His ending section is as tragic as my old run, if not worse. He goes wide many times and has bad bridge turns. So. Would that lap 2 tunnel - wide ending - bumps - bad u-turns - bad bridges = a 1.7s timesave? I very much doubt it.

But if that wasn't enough: Here's a true doubter for you guys. I've commentated a comparison video comparing my (current) PB, this next video, and F1s vid, but I cba rendering that and uploading it at 5 AM.

3:28.8 igt run.

Looks like shit got a lucky ass boost at the end but

This was played in very shitty laggy conditions. Then sped up in a video editor to have it be close to the original speed. As you can see, the cutscenes are ridiculously fast. I even crash in the last section. Yet it's still 6 seconds faster. If anyone truly dares to tell me that the rate of playing the game doesn't matter now, you'd be clueless. IGT is skewed. I'll post the comparison vid tomorrow.

I'm mainly a Mario Kart Double Dash runner, but I occasionally venture out into other (meme) games. The problem with this is that MKDD (because of its low frequency in recordsetting) slowly sinks towards the bottom of my profile page, where as the meme games are at the top. I'd love to have a sticky function or pin function where I can put my favorite/pinned/sticky game to be at the top of my profile.

Shadowdrax and Drax26 are now removed from the leaderboard.

Reason: Submitting (a) fake time(s), multi accounting.

If you are drax, you'll need to come with concrete proof of your claimed time's skill level to be allowed back on the leaderboard.

So a lot of the times I'll see someone claim WR when it's just the best time on this website. I was wondering if it's a possibility to add a Checkmark as a guarantee that every site record is actually a World Record as well.

I reckon this can be added to most popular games, and would easily clear up which games aren't fully on the site, or if they just have a small community.

To verify the checkmarks it should probably be a request by the mod team of a game, verified by the staff of this website. At least, that's just a guess of how this can be done I suppose

Hello everyone.

ItzXector will be banned from the leaderboards for continually submitting runs where the IGT and RTA don't match up, or don't match up at all with the provided IGT picture. I've warned them before and yet it still continues.

The only way to get back on the leaderboards will be to gain the community's trust. This is up to them and you guys to decide how they can do it and if they can do it.

Hello everyone, a few things:

  1. RTA is mandatory when submitting runs. This is to check that the run is done in 60hz, without any breaks. Were we to switch to mandatory IGT, either we would have to allow 50hz and taking breaks in runs, or require every submission to have video. I'd like to hear everyone's opinion on this.

  2. Don't submit RTA milliseconds. Human timing isn't accurate, and because tenths don't look good on sr.com, please leave them out. If there's a tie, just look at IGT.

  3. The current video proof standard is top 10 runs. However, this rule was made way back before MKDD got a lot of newer players and submissions. Should this be changed to a certain time barrier? Or is top 10 still fine?

Please let me know your thoughts in this thread.

Since MK8 changed theirs I thought it was time for Double Dash to get a new look as well :)

Hopefully you guys like it. Please leave any feedback (positive and/or negative) in the comments here.

Hey hey people

After some debating we've decided to require a picture of your IGT for your runs. Existing runs don't need to update theirs, but new runs will be rejected if there isn't a picture. This should also hopefully clear the confusion with RTA and IGT (RTA is the full time, IGT is the sum of track times, which is shown in the records section)

Any feedback on this would be appreciated, so leave your thoughts in here

Hello everyone! I'm a mod of MKDD and we have one main category (All Cup Tour) and four misc categories (Mushroom-, Flower-, Star- and Special cup). The problem is that some people miss the Show misc categories button. However if I make them main categories then they will be next to All Cup Tour and just as important, which is not what I want.

Is there a way of doing this? Or can this get added?

Gelderland, NetherlandsGoomba8 years ago

Hello everyone!

I've been trying to at least learn world 1 to see if I am eventually going to run this game. However, I'd like to do it with the yoshi flutter in Yoshi 2

So here's my description of how I do it: Stand at yoshi's nest, aim to the top right and then jump + spin to get the headshake then hold down + a little bit right but when the camera changes, I lose my speed. I've tried turning my control stick with the camera and stuff and I only got it once, but I had no clue how I did it

Any help would be greatly appreciated :D
