Hi everyone!
Theres been plenty of changes on the leaderboards recently! Firstly, we've recently added the Ironman challenge as a speedrun category to the main leaderboards! There's two different variants of this challenge. In Classic Ironman you land on each moon only once, while in Hardcore Ironman you complete an entire quota on each moon! Originally, we planned on adding these categories to Category Extensions but due to the similarity of the run to X Quota speedruns, we decided that the challenge fits better on the main boards as the goal is to clear quotas on just like the other categories on the board and it would be out of place on the category extension boards.
We've also added a new category to the category extension leaderboards: Museum%. In this category the player(s) must collect each variant of each scrap item in the game.
Other smaller recent changes in regard to the leaderboards are:
- v56 version variables have been added and v56 related changes to category extension boards have been applied.
- Double subcategory submissions are not allowed. This is more specifically in relation to glitchless vs glitched runs where glitchless runs will not be accepted to the leaderboards for glitched runs.
- For T3 Moon 100% runs, setup time with zeekers cheat before the day that clears the moon does not count the timing. You may, for example, land on company building to get items then land as many times on the moon before the attempt to clear it. Using zeekers cheat multiple times for t3 moons is also allowed.
For the High Quota% category, we plan on removing it from speedrun.com and hosting it on a dedicated website instead. SRC is not going to cater to HQ due to the differences and the (lack of) features, so we feel like a dedicated site with features more suitable for a high score leaderboard rather than time based leaderboard is the best solution here. Removal will happen once the site is ready and published.
Also, In other news:
Bully is a super moderator on the leaderboards and a discord admin!
Also welcome Zephyr to our team of verifiers!
Remember that we have a Discord Server where we discuss speedruns, strategies, events, ideas, streams and whatever else interests us. We also hold community polls farily regularily on leaderboard matters to edit the leaderboards according to how the community would like them, such as the inclusion of Ironman and Museum% to the leaderboards, and we're holding one right now about the handling of beehives for Classic Ironman!
See you in the Discord! And good luck on your speedruns!
Hiya!
There have been a lot of recent changes, both on the mod team and on the boards. I'll start with the boards first:
-
Zeekers cheat and ejection strats are going to be split off into an unrestricted category together on the category extensions
-
6 Quota is staying merged for the time being. As the vote was so close, it is subject to change in the future.
-
1 and 3 Quota have a new subcategory, which splits No Beehives and Beehives
As for the mod team:
-
Tomatobird is now an smod and is the owner of the Discord server.
-
Bully is now a mod on the main boards
-
Gabtix is now a verifier on the main boards
-
Voidspace and I (CookiesUnite) have decided to return as super moderator and moderator respectively.
-
Mikkaya and Escue have also been added in the first wave of new verifiers. If you submitted an application and were not accepted, you still may be accepted in the next wave.
Happy birthday lotoe !!!
We have received news on an update on ASL file. With this new update, the autosplitter should no longer be broken. You should now be able to activate/deactivate normally.
Thank you for your patience!

Livesplit autosplitter is currently broken due to an update to a third party library that the autosplitter uses called asl-help which has broken it. If you've noticed autosplitter is not working this is why.
Zach (autosplitter creator) has posted a guide in Discord with a workaround for this that I have pinned. Please join the Discord and look in the announcements channel to find the fix.
You will manually need to set this up in the meantime for the autosplitter to work. Zach will push an update and notify everyone once the surrounding issues have been fixed.
Hello Employees!
With the new changes coming to the Lethal Company Speedrunning Community, I have also reformatted the rules in accordance. Please take the time to reference these rules, as there are some new additions that should be taken note of for run submissions.
This includes moving some rules into the category section, a new global rule section, and required materials in your video for submission.
If you have any questions regarding the rules, please do not hesitate to contact me for further clarification.
Happy Speedrunning,
Void
Timings for Lethal Company speedruns are being changed from RTA to IGT (In-Game Time)
An autosplitter has now been created for Lethal Company speedrunners by a member of the community which allows load times to be removed from the overall time of runs. Due to how new speedruns for this game are and the currently low overall amount of runs there are we are switching to using IGT for the timing of Lethal Company speedruns effective immediately.
What does this change mean?
- IGT is a now a requirement for all runs going forward, if your run does not use IGT it will be rejected
- Livesplit & the autosplitter must be used to make sure your run is being timed using IGT
- Livesplit needs to be shown the whole time throughout your run
If you don't know how to setup livesplit and the autosplitter, please refer to the guide below: https://www.speedrun.com/Lethal_Company/guides/fayyy
As far as how this affects co-op runs:
- All pov's for other players are still required
- The host of the game need's to be using livesplit and make sure they are timing with IGT as the timing for co-op is based off of the host's POV.
Thank you for your understanding

Hi Everyone, as you may have noticed, we have 2 new categories
Level100%, which requires collecting every scrap or item on the map, and Bestiary%, which requires scanning every monster in the game.
Hope everyone has fun with these new categories and i cant wait to see the first runs on them
On a different topic however, Rules have been heavily re-written to make things a lot more clear for runs, make timing easier, and make the runs overall more fun to play. We are sorry if your run was removed because of these new rules, but after some thought it was better off for the speedrunning scene as a whole.
If you happen to have any questions, comments or Concerns, please do reach out so we can further improve on it, and i hope you all have fun getting abducted by a bracken right at the end of your perfect 100% run LOL
Cya till next update, and have fun yall
