So YH10S has (relatively) exploded since the (now 3 year old) decision to add milliseconds to the entire leaderboard. We're over 50 runners, and I personally think the leaderboard is looking a little messy because of it. We have some times without milliseconds, most with, but most submitted times just get the milliseconds submitted from the livesplit timer, they aren't correctly retimes from VODs that I'm aware of (because it's a lot of work for us verifiers, and personally I'm not too fussed if the milliseconds aren't accurate for a 50th place 4 minute run, where they aren't tying anyone to the second.

So I'd like to see if anyone objects to us changing the millisecond timing to either the top X runs (top 5 or top 10 seems nice), or any sub X time runs (sub 3 being the obvious choice). This would neaten up the presentation of the leaderboard, not require unnecessarily accurate timing lower down the leaderboards but still allow for unties towards the top, and remove a lot of potential work on us moderators having to frame count every VOD going forward.

If the community consensus is that milliseconds should be shown and correct for every run on the board I'm still willing to do that, and correct all the times, but would like to avoid that much work if it isn't necessary ;)

Just a thread to dump relevant or useful info (feel free to add anything, even if it isn't relevant to speedruns, there's little collected info on this game)

We (the mods of You Have 10 Seconds) have recently had a few run submissions by a new runner calling himself IrreversibleNinja. The recordings were very choppy, had no sound, and were pretty high up the leaderboards for a first run. We rejected the run(s) for these reasons and explained those reasons to him. Since then he posted this thread http://www.speedrun.com/yh10s1/thread/umxyj (where he's since deleted his posts, but they were multiple rambling posts about how he spent ages getting those runs and we're idiots for not verifying them) The important part of that thread is the runner from another game informing us that he had spliced a run in that game too. We then got this thread http://www.speedrun.com/yh10s1/thread/994x1 Which is an embarrasing attempt to save face, and to "not tell anyone else about the cheated runs ... keep it a secret".

So yeah, this is a heads up to anyone that gets submissions from this idiot.

Just noticed that the any% leaderboard has 2 runs by skater (his first place one and a 18:50 one not accredited to his account). Thought I'd mention it in case no one else has seen it.

Could someone clarify what the ISO loaders bit in the rules means? As a guess it sounds like running the ISO on a softmodded wii, but I'm not sure (plus that seems like an odd ban when emulated runs are allowed).
