Not being a hater but why is Dashas run on a TAS website. 8 mins is only possible with Tas

This is more enough to prove that run is a tool assisted run. Wayyy to many cheaters getting runs approve on this site. Mods be careful. And always be skeptical. This was found and brought to my attention from Canadian gamer. I've busted many cheaters in the past. But I tip my hat to Canadian with this one. Well done.

I wholeheartedly agree with @AlphaNerd on this. Already, the YouTube account is sketchy from the start. It looks like a stolen profile picture from a relatively young lady born after this game was released, no face shown on video, no voice, no controller inputs, not recorded live and playing like this is either impossible for a human or require hundreds/thousands hours of attempts, if it's even possible. There's not one single thing that makes me think that that run is legit.

At the time of approval I was hesitant about no audio, but upon checking their previous runs on their YT dating back over a year ago they had audio and the fact they had been apparently playing the game at a high level for over a year added some form of credibility (and also the thought of someone making Chase HQ II of all things their debut game to cheat in just seemed weirdly unlikely).

As I am no longer super active in this game I just assumed players had crazily optimized strats over time. I do not follow TAS websites so thank you for pointing out the fact that their run was posted on such a site, which is indeed very suspect.

I would like to imagine Dasha doesn’t understand the difference between RTA and TAS and just assumes SR.C is loaded eith TAS videos, but the fact that they have splits and everything in the video….I just have no idea other than it is an attempt to fool people into thinking it is real time.

I removed the run and told them if they want to resubmit they will need to join the conversation here and refute the claims or prove their runs are legit in some way. Maybe by streaming the game and showing their skills in a real time environment where they can show their inputs are not TAS. If they can consistently pull off say sub 9’s in a stream then maybe there is some credibility to this run. I suggest adding AlphaNerd as a mod to the game to have an extra set of eyes in the approval process in the future.

Awesome to hear and even more awesome offer them to join the discussion. When watching their run the way they hit the cars is just unreal they are glued to the boss car and take zero knock back damage. And when I saw the run on a tas website that was the nail in the coffin for me. If you look at my time of 1219 and last place 1411 that's less then 2 Mins with all other runners times in between those. Yet their run def in a league of their own over 4 mins ahead of mine. Odd stuff indeed. And it's a shame so many do cheat. But it's always great to catch them and remove them. It really helps the credibility of this site

I would gladly be a mod as well. And turth us even if they could do sub 10 mins live a few times that would also help show they have the skill to possibly get 8'13 but I don't think they will join the conversation.

I also notice there is a run thats not showing on the leaderbored. Tho their run is approved. Was curious as to why it's not visible. Their run is 1051 I just watched it seems legit. Odd it's not showing on the leaderbored tho

Canada

PeteDorr you're amazing! Couldn't agree more with everything you said. Big thumbs up!

PS: There's indeed a hidden run not showing on the leaderboard. In my profile it says I got Bronze.

Just saw my 8:13 run was deleted. So funny. With no proofs. Why? Because you hate russians or because you so slow in this game? Want to hear appologize from all of you and give my 8:13 run on leaderboard. Without practicing, i did a 3-minutes faster run, than AlphaNerd. Enjoy.

Hey there,

Nobody wants to get into a bitter argument here, it's definitely important to get clarification when needed. There is no need to bring nationality in this, let's keep it classy my friend.

If you all want to do the "sub 10" or better, i can make a huge 30-40 minutes tutorial video, where i explain all little details and strats. Hit the like button on this message, if you want.

Ya dude no need to think that way. I love Russian women

Hamilton, ON, Canada

Explain this to me then??? Why was your original run on a TAS website

Canada

LISITSA, are you not "Dasha" anymore? What's up with that? The Dasha account says "She/Her"... You were using the avatar of a young lady and we were calling you a "she"...

Furthermore you now bring nationality into this debate? Seriously?? Nobody cares what country you're from. You should be the one to apologize.

You had a fake persona, no face or voice on video, no inputs, nothing to show those runs were legit. And now, finally, you're trying to give some proof, which you should've done from the start instead of creating an alt-account.

You are the one that had no proof, not us and it's your job as a Speedrunner to show proof your runs are legit.

That being said, now that you've finally shown yourself and your inputs, you can get your WR back as far as I'm concerned. But don't be mad at us for having questioned it, it was as sketchy as it gets.

Sounds good Lisista, I would be down with that. Russian women are incredible, I second that.

@LISITSA What about the other account you used @Dasha : https://www.speedrun.com/user/Dasha It says "She/Her" Why were you using the account of a female. Don't you realize how sketchy that is, especially on a website like this?

MasterSystemMarceau, yeah, Dasha is my account. Until this, i doesn't have a real one account, just because don't want to show my real face or kinda this. I play for fun. I completely forgot about speedruning, but today, i saw the leaderboard and was surprised.
