So I submitted a run and the only moderator has been offline for 11 months. They have no Twitter, YT, Twitch ect. on their profile so I carn't even contact them there. Any ideas what I could do?

Assuming you run the game and would like to take over the moderation ofcourse

@crrool. Thanks I will try that. But I didn't realize you could verify your own run tho.

That's been mentioned in other threads before, but the way the site is laid out encourages mods to self-verify. Getting on the front page gives your run more attention, especially if it's a world record and/or a popular game. If there's a delay in approving, it doesn't get on the front page. Yeah it's mostly an ego thing, but you can see how it's encouraged.

I believe most of the really popular games still require someone else to verify a moderator's run, but for smaller games it's a bit of problem. For obscure games it's justified seeing how no one else is likely qualified to moderate.
