May have mentioned this before. When people tag your name in a thread, would be nice to get a notification of that, or a notification when you get a "like"...simple stuff like this

Is there a board for individual races? Time trial. Example: Luigi's Raceway (normal runs and "course skip runs")

Sorry if there is, can't see it. A link would be good

https://www.statista.com/statistics/293304/number-video-gamers/

According to data, there are an estimated 3.24 billion gamers across the globe, as of 2021. Yet, in the Speedrun community, we've got 1M+ monthly active users

In summary: Doesn't seem enough, comparable with the number of gamers. Would like to see our number rise, in our awesome community

I haven't been online in a bit but noticed we've now got an "about" panel on our profiles, pretty neat. If we can customise our own bio etc, that would be another step

What is the original primary, panel and background colour? Of a Speedrun.com account. Maybe someone will know if they've never changed these things, they are a bunch of letters and numbers. I just want to know as I messed it up, and I want it back to the original (my OCD)

Bit of a dull thread ...if anyone knows, then awesome

I don't get notifications when a user "likes" a post, tagging ...all the basic stuff. All I get is notifications for DM messages and verified runs etc

I've turned on all my stuff, weird

I'm trying change my email, to my current email...but I can't

Apparently, there's another account of mine here that has my new email, with zero activity, as it comes up with "account already used"

So, I'm guessing it was me. I want that account with whatever username it is deleted and gone, and just have this account. Can this be done?

Tried getting Lightstream Racer approved but got rejected...sucks. Such a fun game, and notable

http://lightstreamracer.com/

...yet games like "Crash On The Run" are aloud. Short and trivial games...

Don't understand, weird

Uploading runs today, any new / good mobile ones worth a shot? (On IOS)

United Kingdomjames3 years ago

Allow users to add custom profile descriptions / bio (little site suggestion)

Running is done from small kids all the way up to adults. What's the "average" age in the forum? (question of curiosity)

May have got a WR on my hands for a level in Super Kirby Clash. What bothers me is I did this on the Switch just tonight, not the PC, and after getting my time, I took a picture of it, along with a video of the screen showing the time, and pressing "A" to go through the rest of the game like normal showing I'm using the Switch with my TV

In future...best way to record the Switch?

WR time in Super Kirby Clash...

Story Quest Seaside Level: Hornhead (1:04)

...just a small dent in Kirby games, but pretty happy. Hopefully gets accepted

United Kingdomjames3 years ago

Anyone speedrunning anything "different" on the Switch? That isn't as mainstream

You can only have a username that has 5 characters or more, yet some have usernames under 5 characters. What's the situation with that? (doesn't really matter, curiosity)

United Kingdomjames3 years ago

The glitch for getting stuff fast on the bouncing box etc. Has this glitch been patched for N-Sane Trilogy?

United Kingdomjames3 years ago

May have already been discussed, but has an app been considered for IOS / Android? Community could help towards development (I'd be happy chipping in, as a supporter)

Outside the norm for it happen, but imagine it does.

If a good runner within a top 10 or 20 of a leaderboard has a friend, who is struggling to get anywhere, does a run for him, and puts him at 65th.

Not all runs are streamed live. No camera, no accountability.

In process of setting up new runs. Is there a simple way to replay a certain section of a run, if the game itself has no save.

Example: Super Mario Land on the Gameboy, it contains 32 levels, subdivided into 8 worlds. Is there a way to start a run at world 4? To "practice" world 4. Games like this have no save, once you've passed world 4, it's passed. Only way to go back to world 4, is to start over at world 1.

Super Mario Land on the Gameboy is one example, but applies to all games like it that don't allow the save.

If you look up Goldeneye (N64) and check out "Agent" for Statue / Bunker ll, there are no runs under this. Is there a reason?
