Hello, I have recently talked with Loop and have become a Super Moderator for Prison Life. This is so I can verify recent runs and make some changes to the leaderboards. My main focuses are fixing up the rules and dealing with obsolete runs.
As you may know, Prison Life is infested with exploiters, making speedrunning harder to do. I plan on changing the rules so this is kept in mind, and so runners are less likely to have their runs rejected due to something that is out of their control.
I am planning on modifying the rules to make it more clear how runs should start and end. My idea is to either have the player reset before the run starts and/or to show the team selection screen before the run can start. I am also going to take into account how other players may unintentionally interfere with the run and how that will be dealt. This is especially an issue for categories like Kill 5 Guards, where even an inmate accidentally helping you can invalidate your run.
A lot of the glitched speedruns in Prison Life use the corner clip glitch, which is unfortunately patched. I may make a newer solo glitched category to deal with this. A good replacement for the corner clip is the laugh clip, since you can laugh clip through two walls in the cell block.
Feel free to leave suggestions on what I should change or keep in mind. I'll be trying to improve the leaderboards to the best of my ability.
Small update: I've been dealing with a lot of stress so it's taking me a bit to work on stuff. I may attempt to verify more runs, but since I will be working on the rules, do not expect them to be verified.
I'm starting to get more into verifying runs, but please still do give me some time. I do have two things I want to note, though.
- Please make sure you've read the game AND category rules and that you are following them. I've rejected multiple runs for using keycards that they have not gotten o
