But there are other runs in the same category with no video and a faster time

Recently I had 2 runs rejected in the "Beat 1-1 as Fire Mario" category. Both runs were quite slow in comparison to the high standards of others. I was wondering why they were rejected as there are other runs on the leaderboard that are very similar to mine. (highish time, no video and emulator used). Any help in this matter would be appreciated.

Thanks for the help

I'm slowly but surely learning how to run 2 boss no up+a and I was wondering if, when I eventually pull a full run together, I will need footage for it to go on here even if it's way off of a top 10 spot? Thanks in advance :)
