@jackzfiml given the opportunity, why not monetize your runs?
Either way the bigger problem with certain music copyright claims is some of them will make your video unreviewable in most regions which is super fucked for submitting the game.
@Jubilee as long as you aren't distributing it openly on the site.
For example: silly melee by alpharad https://www.speedrun.com/silly_melee
That game hasn't been available for download/distributed anywhere pretty much since it came out since it got taken down super fast. However, if you DID have a version of it or found one somewhere, you could still run it.
There's a ton of games that are hard/impossible to find that aren't even hacks that have boards, so ones that were taken down from distribution should still be good to play as long as you aren't distributing it as far as anyone can tell.
Edit: I couldn't find a DL for it while searching in 2018, but @Jaypin88 did or just had it already and completed a run last year: https://www.speedrun.com/silly_melee/run/yokv32jz
@SvalbardHDX if you have all the runs you can just submit them. If the YT videos themselves got deleted, you could contact YT support to re-instate them. If your whole google account got hacked, you can try contacting support, but unless you have info they can use (ie: phone number, backup email, etc.) they probably can't help. Good luck.
Everything that I run.
Why you might ask?
Because I ran it.
Side Note: Also Reformatted the board, should be easier to navigate now.
@KKOJJGSS was in full control of this board for awhile even though I was listed as a mod purely because I had no real interest in overseeing this board myself. However, since he has been inactive for awhile now, I decided to look at the boards + verify and runs until he's back.
I find the current rules hard to read so I'll make them more specific.
I will also be adding a mandatory input display if you're playing on dolphin. To set that up, check this guide out that I made:
It appears that wasn't changed, but I'll keep it RTA while @KKOJJGSS is gone because it is much easier to verify runs with (and submit runs with). If IGT will only be used if times are close enough that load times end up mattering which is currently very unlikely, but would likely only affect the top players.
If you're saying it's small, right click it in the thing in the 'sources' tab, hit 'transform', then 'stretch to screen'.
Also for your game recording, check that you have it set to visible, you want the open eye, not the closed one.
@MortexLeKing29 people have suggested that since this game came out. It would be kinda dumb as ur just jumping at the flagpole right away. If you want a standard level to optimize try running the story mode levels.
Banning a glitch can happen if it's considered un-fun or uncompetitive, but it should be something game breaking to ban it instead of making it's own category imo. Even if there's a year old video, that means nothing if they never saw it. For example: some goldeneye wall clip glitch was discovered recently from a video that was pretty old and has only recently been implemented in game. The mods have full discression over the rules, but if they ARE making unreasonable stuff generally they can be replaced/removed/reprimanded. Can you showcase what was removed?
