I'd like to request mod/super mod status for the following game: https://www.speedrun.com/volume

The only runner/mod/super mod has not logged in since Aug 1 2020. I have a run pending that has been in the queue for 2 weeks now.

I have tried to contact via Twitch whispers but no response. I do not see any other viable way to contact.

My pending run: https://www.speedrun.com/volume/run/yo9k7pdy

Thank you.

Special treatment for @AllAgesGaming to retime only his times is not right. Never should be an option IMO. I'd say either separate or just don't. At the end of the day speedrunning is a bit of an arms race. If NTSC is the fastest, then just play NTSC and let NTSC/PAL be on the same board. Emulators are highly accessible along with obtaining an NTSC copy.

For something like this, separate PAL and NTSC. If it's that drastic of a difference, and you want everyone to play fair, just separate them. Doing math/conversions just sounds wack, and very confusing.

HD Edition PS3, yes. I would do HDD.

If you have a fiber connection and perfect elements, it's only going to load and run as fast as a PS3. As Major already said, PSNow just emulates a PS3. There is no point to separation.

Emulate is a loose term in this sense. PSNow emulates, or represents a PS3. RPCS3 is totally different, 3rd party and not comparable.

Unfortunately even if you play perfect, the loads/lag/etc. just can't compete with PS3. Plus there are exclusive glitches that are PS2 only, thus needing the separation even more.

I'd be very surprised if Mr. Snawk ran VE ever.

Yes but if you submit the run will be hidden from the boards by default. You can go into the filters and show emulator runs but they won't be visible until you filter them.
