In my last article, we covered **Twitch’s new 100-hour storage limit for Highlights**, which threatens thousands of existing speedruns. Since **all runs submitted with Twitch links are at risk**, we knew a solution was needed - not just for this situation, but to **build a system that allows us to respond faster to similar issues in the future**.

Today, we’re rolling out **new tools** to help runners and moderators **identify and manage runs at risk** more efficiently.

## ![](/static/blob/7n63q24n.png)

# **Identifying Runs at Risk**

To make it easier to track affected runs, runners can now see all of their at-risk submissions in the Pending Tab on their profile

![](/static/blob/1n7j9m7n.png)

..and moderators have access to the same information within the Mod Hub alongside all the other previously available filters. 

**For most cases, the view you will want is "Verified" runs that are also "At risk" as seen in the image below.**

![](/static/blob/1n5364qz.png)

Additionally, **at-risk runs will now be marked with a yellow identifier on their Video Proof Icons** for quick visibility.

# **Managing Runs at Risk: The Video State Variable**

![](/static/blob/rnq2352n.png)

To give users control over their runs, we’ve introduced a **“Video State” global variable**. This variable will only be visible on runs considered at-risk. If a run is flagged as at-risk, its Video State will default to **“⚠️ Video at Risk”**, and runners or moderators can update its status based on the situation:

✅ **Mark as Safe** - Use this if the video proof within the run submission has been updated to a link that won’t be removed in the upcoming Twitch deletion on April 19th, 2025 (e.g., reuploaded to YouTube) or if the Twitch VOD is included in the 100-hour storage limit on the runner’s channel.

🔴 **Mark as Abandoned** - Use this if the video proof **cannot be updated** and the existing video link has been or will be removed. **This does not impact the run itself** - it simply acknowledges that the run once had valid proof and remains a viable leaderboard submission.

# **Who Can Update Video States?**

- **Runners** can update video states on runs they were a player in (this includes co-op runs)
- **Submitters** can update video states on runs they submitted (whether they are the player or not)
- **Moderators** can update video states on games they moderate

# **A Note to Moderators**

While SRC has no control over where videos are re-uploaded or by who, we ask that moderators allow **runners some time to update the video proof on their own submissions first**. This helps prevent run content from being reuploaded to channels not owned by the runner.

However, **we support moderators downloading and backing up** run video proof as long as they **wait to update submissions**, giving runners time to handle updating their own submissions first.

# **Related Changes & Improvements**

As part of this update, we’ve made a few other related improvements

- **Added Embed Support** - Runs with video links from **TikTok, RUTUBE, and YouTube Live** will now have the video proof embedded properly
- **“View Run” → “Triage Run”** - The terminology has been updated to better reflect the new workflow, and is now distinct from Edit Run

![](/static/blob/7z38544n.png)

- **The “Pending” Tab** - The Pending tab on runner profiles now counts runs at risk, making them easier to track

![](/static/blob/qnygmk4n.png)

# **Backing Up Your Runs: How to Download At-Risk Videos**

Let’s quickly recap how to backup your runs if you aren’t already familiar. If you haven't backed up your runs yet, now is the time to do so.

Here are the best ways to download your runs:

### **Speedrun Rescue Script - Advanced Setup**

![](/static/blob/dz4wx9me.png)

Developed by @Matse007 and some other amazing contributors from within the speedrunning community, this script automatically detects and downloads your runs that were submitted with Twitch Highlights.

- Detects at-risk runs either per runner or per leaderboard/game
- Best for runners and moderators who need to bulk download all at-risk runs per runner or per leaderboard/game
- Lots of new customization options (see Github page)
- Requirements: Python + dependencies (installation instructions on the page)
- Get it here: [https://github.com/Matse007/SpeedrunRescueScript](https://github.com/Matse007/SpeedrunRescueScript)

Matse has also gone ahead and created a handy YouTube tutorial for S.R.S.!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkgnHt2aVmQ

### **TwitchDownloader - Easy Setup (Still Somewhat Technical)**

TwitchDownloader allows you to bulk download your VODs and Highlights from a Twitch channel.

![](/static/blob/1n83vr9z.png)

**How to Use:**

Best for bulk downloading VODs and Highlights from a single Twitch channel.

    1. Install TwitchDownloader (GUI is recommended over CLI)
    2. Open the Task Queue tab and hit Search VODs
    3. Enter your Twitch channel name to generate a list of all VODs/Highlights
    4. Select all relevant runs (or select all) and add them to the queue for downloading

- Get it here: [https://github.com/lay295/TwitchDownloader/releases](https://github.com/lay295/TwitchDownloader/releases)
- Installation Instructions: [https://github.com/lay295/TwitchDownloader/ReadMe](https://github.com/lay295/TwitchDownloader?tab=readme-ov-file#readme) (Go down to any of Windows/MacOS/Linux “Getting Started” sections)

This is probably the easiest “set it and forget it” solution, but will still require some basic Github knowledge to download/install.

## **What’s Next?**

While these changes currently apply only to existing at-risk runs, these features lay the groundwork for responding more effectively to similar issues in the future.

We're actively monitoring the impact of these changes and are prepared to make additional adjustments as necessary. If you have any feedback, suggestions, or run into issues using the new tools, let us know! This is a community-wide effort, and we’re committed to making the process as smooth as possible.

Twitch Runs At Risk are now visible and easier to manage!

Twitch Runs At Risk Are Now Visible for Runners & Moderators

*Super Mario* is a major licence in video games and speedrunning. After the first post with Zelda games in *Speedrunlympics*, I was really curious to see what *Super Mario* games could offer in the a speedrunlympic format.
I've set up the same rules as the precedent post, and the standings were taken on Mario day, March 10th.

## Rues

- There is every game of the Super Mario main series according to [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario#History_and_development). Remakes and remasters are counted with the original game.

- Each game have at least 2 categories, where there are the most entries.

- A category is picked if there is at least 50 runners and the goal is to finish the game.

- Original game and its remake count as one game (applying for rule 2).

- Category are picked from official learderboards game on SRC.

Rules are set, let's travel around the different standings !

# 2D Super Mario : 16 games

![](/static/blob/1n53g9qz.png)



## ![](/static/blob/1n7j1o7n.png)

# 3D Super Mario : 8 games

![](/static/blob/7n63p14n.png)



# ![](/static/blob/rnq2wq2n.png)

# All Super Mario : 24 games

![](/static/blob/7e9wkx3z.png)



![](/static/blob/ynlxp50n.png)

The **USA** is still on the top in the medal count, as we already seen on Zelda Games. But they are beaten on 2D games by **Japan** with their overall dominance on *Super Mario World* !

**Canada** is still on top 5 on all standings, but Sweden and France are a bit far this time. As we expected on Zelda, **Germany** is coming strong with a top 4 overall and a second place on 3D speedruns ! **Wales** is also surprisingly in the top 5 with **Jhay** performances around the *Super Mario Galaxy* games, placing him 2nd overall and 1st on 3Ds !

You may have also recognized some players in all games podium, **Nifstky** with his performances on *Super Mario Bros. & The Lost Levels* games, and, of course, **Suigi** who has all world records on *Super Mario 64* console categories.

## Statistics

- **Number of categories:** 117
- **Number of medal-winning players:** 187
- **Game with the most categories:** Super Mario 64 (17 categories)
- **Game represented by the most countries:** Super Mario 64 (10 countries)
- **Categories with the most runners:** Super Mario 64 (16 Star [EMU]) with 4,574 runners & Super Mario Odyssey (Any% [1P]) with 4,524 runners
- **Fun fact:** There is 9 categories with more than 1000 runners on 6 different games

I hope you like this second post around *Speedrunlympics*. If you want to see other licences, i'm open to suggestions. You can find the data, including the complete standings, categories, and other details, in this [spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ua8lvuTp0sTLfliN9dIjgzRs7qycqC5kx6htXiktfeQ/edit?usp=sharing).

What If Super Mario Speedruns Were an Olympic Event?



# **Hello SRC peeps~**

We're gorlsgoFAST! We are partnered with Lady Arcaders, so there is a bit of overlap there. If you are familiar with them, then you might be familiar with some of us. :) We also host a women's speedrunning charity event annually. We have a chilled community and we wanna meet you!

Normally, each year we pick a different charity, but we have decided that from now on, we will be raising funds for the charity 'I Support the Girls'. We actually supported them for our very first event, and we thought they were a great charity to support. They focus on providing bras and hygiene products for women experiencing poverty, homelessness, or unfortunate circumstances. We love how their focuses are constantly changing and they support people in many different ways. They are currently helping provide support to people experiencing hardship due to the California fires, but they also provide support to women in other countries as well! They have affiliates in the US, Canada, Australia, Pakistan, Philippines, and Germany.

We like to have our submission date end a bit before the actual event. We like to promptly release the schedule and make sure there is enough time to iron out any issues. Please let us know if this is your first event or if you will need any extra assistance setting up for your run. We do use our own obs and you will be streaming to one of our bot channels.

(Note to all runners that we do have some male staffers helping out with the event, but they will not be doing runs, just providing support)

gorlsgoFAST 2025 will be our fifth charity event. Our events focus on highlighting the women speedrunners in the community! We welcome ALL women to apply: whether you are cis, trans, nonbinary, or gender non-conforming.

User @AudiblySmiles A.K.A Mikuze (Das me!!!!!) has managed to topple the records in Glitched% and Glitched% with AI ally that both stood for 7 years nearly uncontested! Smiles started their Speedrunning career in the very same Front Page featured category that they now have the gold in. There are almost zero guides for these old games, no set-in-stone routes for each level & no skips just like in the old days!!!

![](/static/blob/1n83v2xz.png)

Now for those of you who are new to Car Combat and Twisted Metal 4, let me give a small explanation about the genre and the game in question. Car Combat games are essentially fighting games mixed with Arena Shooters but the characters are the cars. Generally, the games are known for doing inputs for special moves just like using meters in fighting games, and even rely on their own similar kind of meters. They are known for high speeds and reliance on pickups across each of the maps - you can even ring people out!

Twisted Metal 4 by 989 Studios is a very colorful and arcade-y style game in the Twisted series, it has a ton of characters from previous games, and even the most famous character (Sweet Tooth) known for his flaming head is the final boss of Twisted Metal 4. Additionally, this is the only reason this run is possible in Glitched%! The game is incredibly action-y and notably inconsistent in its gameplay against AI opponents. This does imply that the games are multiplayer and well they are! There is a boss every level of this game and the enemies always spawn in random spawn points and can have drastically different levels of aggression each playthrough. You always fight the same amount of characters per level and the pickups are always in the same places.

![](/static/blob/4zjq4j1e.png)

In the runs for these games, you use proxy spawning of bosses, map knowledge, and the biggest factor of this whole run...The Rear Attack exploit!!!!! It's normally just a regular input like all the others but it can let you fire a weapon with an empty inventory so you can fire an ideal weapon using meter over and over, increasing the DPS exponentially compared to normal gameplay.

Our signature racing marathon, McRaeathon, is back with a bang with our 2025 edition running over the weekend of May 3rd/4th!

McRaeathon 2025 submissions are now OPEN!

This game has so many choices you can make, such as playing in career mode where you fight bots to win coins and up your league with higher class cars and competitions, or either playing some quick races or a championship which can help you practice against bots. There is also the time trial mode, which is key to speedrunning and sending runs. Here are some tips that will definitely help you achieve faster times.

# **🛠 CUSTOMIZATION 🛠**

-> The game provides you with a variety of classes, that have their own uniqueness and stats. Picking the right class on the right track will help you score much faster. To obtain the higher classes, you have to buy them for a certain amount of coins. You must play game modes that give you coins like Quick Races, Championship or Career Mode.

-> Some tracks do require you to pay a certain amount of coins, which could vary. It's best to either grind for coins so you can have a shot at it and possibly get the world record first, or you can play it safe and Speedrun accessible levels that are unlocked right from the get go!

# **❕SKIPS AND TECHNIQUES❕**

-> You will need to know when to accelerate and when to not. Usually in straight paths, it's best to keep accelerating and to stop once you reach a corner or a turn.

-> Sometimes, turns will be *really* sharp. This means you have to break and wait until you can make the turn because if you end up on the grass, you will lose a lot of speed and will probably kill your run.

# ❓**NEED HELP?❓**

-> We get it, it's usually difficult when you first start speedrunning the game. It's the common principle for every game in speedrunning. If you want to get more tips and tricks on how to improve, you can watch the runs from the top 1-3 people and look at some YouTube videos to better improve your gameplay and some day reach the world record!

I hope this helps you out with your performance and if you're new, you could even try it out! The game is accessible on all platforms like PS4, switch, Xbox, mobile, PC and more!
