@peeq they did read the website rules, that's why they asked the question also, why are you angry? did someone harass you over this?

I just finished the first ever SUB 30 SECONDS run of the flossing DLC. However, I noticed that the second place run is at a severe disadvantage because they have braces. I suggest that all categories be split into non-braces and braces.

You should probably ask this question in the minecraft game forums, not here. https://www.speedrun.com/mcce/forum Over there, you can get help from other runners, but on the general site forums it's not likely you'll get help from someone who runs that game.

Well, I don't know what consoles you have, if you are willing to spend money, or how long you would want runs to be, but I'll give a variety of suggestions:

Minecraft: This one is pretty popular to run right now Mario 3D World: Now that this game has been ported to the switch, it's easier to get than ever. This game has a lot of really interesting speed tech, glitches, etc. Karlson: Very short, fast paced fps platforming game. Rayman 2: Incredibly buggy and glitchy masterpiece, a really fun game but the any% run incorporates several incredibly difficult glitches/tricks.

I'm pretty sure these are both bots that are cooperating to sell a blanket. Neither has logged in since their forum post, and it's a weird post to make at all.

https://www.speedrun.com/cargopants/allposts This person's socials all link to a business.

https://www.speedrun.com/DrakeHeyman/allposts This person is not bot, but they likely made the bot, saw that people figured it out, and made an account to defend themself. They posted a link to a font website download thingy.

The odds of getting a run like he did are very low, but nowhere near that of his 1.16 runs. The mod team did not find anything wrong with his 1.15 runs. The argument you've provided could be restructured to apply to literally anybody's run, for example, Dowsky's 1.16 run:

1.) He spawns near an ocean right in front of a tree 2.) He makes a boat and then finds a shipwreck 3.) Then he find a monument 1m11s later 4.) He finds a village with 5 beds 5.) He kills the golem and gets 3 iron and a poppy 6.) He finds a dolphin 7.) He finds a stronghold without using any eyes of ender 8.) He finds the portal room 51 seconds later 9.) The nether portal spawns him literally inside the fortress 10.) He gets all the blazes and pearls he needs 11.) He gets a 4 bed kill on the dragon

edit: this person's discord link says Georgenotfound, it's possible they're a troll

First thing: The rules for games getting accepted has gotten much stricter over time, so small games may have gotten accepted in the past that wouldn't be added today.

Second thing: Those roblox games were added by series moderators, who can add games to the series without the site mods checking it. This is why series mods are so rare nowadays.

Third thing: My understanding is that a game isn't notable if it has little to no community, or isn't a very well made/polished game.

Final thing: If you think your game is notable, have someone else from your community submit a game request. I can think of a couple times I've had game requests rejected for not being notable/short and trivial, and then later the game got added. Also, if you are sure the game is notable, you can add a note in the comments part of the submission explaining why you think it is notable.

All of my notifs are working perfectly except for liking forum post notifs, but that's it.

@Timmiluvs I don't have a problem with my notifications, I think you should check your user settings

I do agree that I wish that there would be some sort of feedback to let us know that certain bugs are being fixed/noted, it's weird that there is never a response in the feedback thread or site bug thread.
