[Reject Appeal] Accused of using an emulator for Any%
13 days ago
United States

On Oct. 29th and Oct. 30th respectively, I submitted 2 (1:40:29 and 1:31:22) Any% runs as my first runs for this game. earlier today they were both rejected for Reason: Runs on an emulator aren't allowed. both of these runs were captured directly from my switch and are ran on Super Mario Odyssey version 1.3.0 with switch firmware version 19.0.1. I can only assume these runs were denied because of my comments in this thread: https://www.speedrun.com/smo/forums/dyjea but those comments were speaking purely hypothetically and I would never submit a run using an emu unless it was accurate enough to be allowed on speedrun.com, and until then, I will only ever use an emulator for either practice or for fun. I hope that this misunderstanding can be cleared up and my run(s)? could be verified.

Sorry to hear that dude, if they aren't emulated (I'm too stupid to know) I hope it gets resolved <3

Yeah good luck! A sub 2 hour run is pretty good on my opinion, and that seems sad.

idk why you got accused of emulator, the action guide loaded on both of those runs

Dang, hopefully you can get it properly verified now. Honestly I've never heard of this issue, but it could have just been a one-time issue with a moderator, it should be resolved quickly.

i hope these runs get verified, keep us updated. as a runner with a 1:36:09 i know how incredible it feels when you get a run like those, and to get them falsely rejected must be awful. GG on your runs, though!
