Using the speedrun.bot, I was shown 97 pages of runs, it's a game with FOUR active runners at the moment and many have been pending since last year. Shambolic

If Cult of the Lamb has it's own autosplitter/load remover for the game, it's likely better to ask in their forums or Discord for support.

Just general tips to get autosplitters working though is to add the splitter from the 'Other' section of the layout, then make sure your timer is using In-Game time, from 'Compare Against' as well, as that's a usual prerequisite for them, check the splitter doesn't have any blank customisation options in addition, by the way, all of that is available with the plus button in 'Edit Layout'.

I've from time to time been really invested in ongoing glitch-hunts or strategy discussions and I'd love to hear everyone's best out of context snippets from discussions like that.

My entry, not written by me, from a routing discussion, is this: "Using the double gravy race glitch meerkat found before you start the cutscene usually softlocks you, but if you are playing the toaster minigame at the same time you can regain control."

Looks like a really interesting tournament + game, I've stopped by just for the moment to say both the discord invite links have expired ;)

You can DM @starsmiley on the website if you're pretty sure the request was denied for a reason that can be explained and not a fundamental problem with the game

I personally have lived in Wales and prefer it to England, hence cool flag ;)

well, it seems to me that OrangePeeling, the original super, was banned and prior to being banned they added a massive unnecessary amount of verifiers. Now that Slothboy is on the leaderboard, they're making an effort to clear that up.

Just separate from the specifics here, removing mods without mentioning anything to them is unacceptable unless it's an emergency with compromised accounts or griefing etc... But on the flip side, there's no reason he isn't allowed to do that unless it's found to be bad moderation practice that warrants his removal from the board. Try and resolve the problem with him directly ;)

Even if this ban wasn't related to flippantly adding verifiers, still gave me a good laugh: That went about as well as could be expected https://i.imgur.com/UcjG4Q8.jpg

It's a weird one. The platform is definitely recognised by the site but it's held as a sort of sub-platform to the predecessor console by default, for some reason, so if you press the plus icon beside the platforms on a game page, it may reveal additional platforms if the mods have specified that submissions are valid on them. So don't worry, the platforms are definitely valid for speedrunning https://i.imgur.com/TYj29ZW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/GG1bMxW.jpg

The best bet is just to ask the game moderators if the Xbox Series X/S is accepted for submissions, in all my experiences with modern console games thus far that's never been a problem, especially when an Xbox One game is ported over, but there might actually be platform differences which warrant a different category for it. If there isn't one and Xbox One is listed, and it's available on the X/S, I'd just poke the game moderator(s) to check. It'll depend game to game :)

please use the game's specific forums rather than site forums to make game-specific requests In any case, usually, you'd want to message a moderator if the run's been pending for a substantial amount of time, over 2 weeks on low-activity boards I'd understand.

Hope the final developments go well! There's no rule against making new threads in the forums to advertise your games but they're frowned upon a bit outside of the Advertisement thread, I'd just post it there. You are also much more likely to get a leaderboard accepted onto the site once the game has been fully released and there's evidence of you/others doing a speedrun of it and an info page. Most games that are accepted before full release are anticipated to be requested by lots of people or part of big series, and it will likely be rejected before full release.

I've reported and notified people of this bug quite a long while ago, albeit through Twitter in the late stages because I was still fed up with being unable to change the sub-country flag then. it's pretty disappointing that such an (I would imagine) tiny fix just hasn't happened yet, especially one which looks so shoddy and so many new users will likely encounter.

The same goes for myself! I've got much more time in my life this year which... might be a bad thing But it'd make for a good sheet I imagine

Awesome compilation Merl_, I remembered a tenth of the stuff on there and the rest is really interesting

Sooo... this thread is to say you are going to make a video soon, but it's not done yet, that you don't need help, and we should wait...

best of luck though ;)
