Why not have individual-level leaderboards for levels higher than 20?

I have personally only gotten to level 24 myself (and years ago), but I'm sure some of the better players could get way past that.

I would love to see other players' submissions and times.

What do you guys think? I have some times I would submit on level 21 and 22. They aren't GREAT times, but respectable. :)

Hey!

I'm a long time Dr. Mario lover, but new to speedrun.com and speedrunning in general.

From watching videos of the top 4 on the leaderboard for the Levels 0-10 speedrun, I realized that many of the levels are largely repeating themselves.

If I understand this correctly, there must be a way for speedrunners to manipulate the RNG which generates viruses at the beginning of each level.

Since it would provide a huge advantage on speedruns, shouldn't there AT LEAST be a way to filter out the results that have used RNG manipulation?

Or if not, why not?

It is fairly easy to check for by simply taking screenshots at the beginning of each level and comparing them.

I would be willing to help review videos if it is simply a matter of needing more manpower.

Interested to hear everyone's thoughts on this. Thanks!
