https://www.speedrun.com/the_site/thread/z6h67 I made a thread about this as well. The site is not doing well these past few days, there might be an update to the site soon, or it could just be the site doing weird things for weird reasons. Hopefully Elo will fix whatever the problem is soon.

People grinding to win the title of most games played, most world records, most categories, etc. are already a very annoying problem on this site (for example, otterstone_gamer submits hundreds of short runs at a time to farm categories, often overwhelming moderators). Having something like this would just encourage that behavior even more. Besides, just because I have more world records than you doesn't make me a better runner, for all you know all of them could have been 1 try runs in categories with no other runners at all.

serious answer is that the site automatically detects rickroll links and submitting one will result in a 2 week long ban. If you submit spam runs frequently, you can be permanently banned. If the site doesn't recognize a rickroll link, mods can reject the run with the reason: "Spam" which will alert site staff and also result in a ban. Please don't do it, it's not funny at all.

I still don't understand why the run got duplicated, and the leaderboards hadn't updated after 3 hours of waiting.

I checked back 3 hours later, and the run was STILL under the flash category. At this point I was extremely confused, so I decided to reject the run to get it off of the wrong leaderboard and then verify it again. I rejected it with a note about how sr.c wasn't working, then went to my rejected runs and re-verified it. Now, the run does not show up on EITHER the HTML5 or flash leaderboards. I went to the actual URL of the run, and it says that it is 56th place under HTML5 category, but it is very clearly NOT on the leaderboard. I don't know what is going on, I've never encountered this glitch before and have no idea how to fix it. help https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/837730563418095725/855849337031884800/unknown.png

So today, this run was pending in a game I moderate: https://www.speedrun.com/60sbr/run/yo7x320m I retimed and verified it, but I forgot to change the category that the runner submitted to. They put their run under "flash" but it was played on the HTML5 version of the game. So, the run showed up on the flash leaderboard instead of HTML5. That's fine, usually that's very easy to fix. So I edit the run and change the category to HTML5, and verify the run. I go to the leaderboard and the run is still under the flash category. I repeated this to make sure that I didn't accidentally mess up twice in a row, and after verifying it it still showed up on the flash leaderboards. I checked the HTML5 leaderboards and the run was on that leaderboard too. I went back to the flash version and clicked on the run, and the run had all the correct information, so I thought that maybe the site just hadn't updated the leaderboard since it was running slowly.

I mean, mce is not an active game at all. There are thousands of people who follow minecraft java edition though. If I were to turn on notifications for everything there, I could probably get hunderds, maybe even thousands of notifications per day. The site needs to be able to handle all of that. However, it probably was not caused by the notifications at all. The last time the site was running like this was when elo was about to release a major update, so that might be the cause.

elo is going to raise the character limit for forum posts, but unfortunately the days of posting war and peace are gone.
