This is how you choose to behave? What a horrible thing to say. You could've at least worded it professionally, but you now just come across as whiny and petulant at best. I don't care what you think about site staff, no one deserves having their ear chewed off so aggressively. I'd be ashamed.

I can't help but agree with this statement. If this is how you choose to act publicly, I don't think you'd even be fit to moderate a community of runners. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Hey there! This actually exists as a category extension category, which can be found here!

run video is private now

Any chance we could get a low round easter egg category for applicable maps? The rules could state that your final time is your real time + 24*the final round number hours (essentially meaning... for example... a 5 hour run of Revelations on round 1 is timed at 29 hours, or 1D 5H) - this would maintain run heirarchy based on final time, as well as have a leaderboard indicator for runs performed on lower rounds than others.

Personally, I'd push for this category to be a complete free-for-all in regards to glitch abuse, whether it be infinite death machine or glitched attachments (to name a few notable examples), as Shadows of Evil and Moon become much more interesting low round routes when taking glitches such as these into consideration. :)

Hey there jambobinous! Your runs are still on the leaderboard (see here), so there's no need to worry about your time being lost. Unfortunately, we're rather limited with how we can go about tweaking run information without requiring a complete resubmit. If there was another way to tweak run data, that didn't involve resubmission of runs, trust me - we would have loved to do it that way instead.

If you have any other concerns, please don't forget to let us hear them - either here on site, or in the discord, as we're more than happy to help alleviate any and all concerns.

Precisely, it's a way of preventing runners from submitting to this category as full stealth isn't possible, as the heist automatically goes loud the second you spawn.

October -> now was the "Chronicles of Nasuper" chapter of SRC

That is a valid issue! I'll get on fixing that right now! :P

EDIT: Fixed :D

Lovely to see this entire charade is still going on.

Nasuper, i've asked you to stop - multiple times, especially after you've been proven wrong, time and time again. Irokwe and Zombie's videos above prove you wrong, yet you haven't even shown a desire to consider the possibility that you are wrong. This behaviour is - if not already - harassing behaviour towards myself, and I'd very much like you to stop.

Hey heisters!

Just wanted to put out an announcement regarding our newest moderator - haracookie! Following his indepth testing of the IGT issues, as well as being a helping hand for new runners, we felt this appointment was justified.

Keep those helmets flying!

No worries about asking! We're here to help! :)

A complete mission is when you escape, whether that takes 5 bags or 2 bags - your final time is dependant on when you "escape".

In regards to "reset strat", that is allowed for the time being until we find out what starbreeze aims to do about people "abusing preset rng restarts". As, at this moment in time, we don't know what they're aiming to do :)

You may submit now :D - a few hours here or there before oct 5th local or not won't make too much difference, the oct 5th lock was just so we could get things up and running, which... hopefully... everything should be setup correctly :D

Hello heisters,

Thought it'd be wise to take a moment to discuss the current leaderboard layout/decisions taken regarding certain rules, as a way of being entirely transparent on the matter of possible future steps!

Rules:

The biggest rule decision, arguably, is the decision to use IGT (In-Game Time) despite the timer being broken via server related issues. The reason this decision was taken, was due to the fact that each option had pros/cons, and we felt that using IGT provided the most ease of access, whilst reducing the cons as much as possible.

The options that were available to us were as follows:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Use IGT.

Pros: Makes runs easier for runners to submit as the timer is provided "out of the box" and, mostly, works

Cons:

Is slightly inconsistent depending on the current server status/a runners internet connection to the server

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Use RTA.

Pros:

Would be a more reliable time method than IGT as it'd be 100% consistent

Cons:

Would impart a larger burden on runners to add a real time clock to their run via video editing (of which console runners may not have access to)

Opens the door to runners abusing the clock by slightly speeding up their run by a small percent (1-2%) which would be nigh impossible to tell for verification purposes

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Use a mod to fix IGT.

Pros:

Fixed IGT - obviously.

Cons:

Console runners wouldn't have access to this mod

Vastly complicates the barrier to entry for a new runner

Possible tampering of the mod as a cheating method

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Another rule decision worth discussing, was the banning of private servers. The reason for this was due to the fact that private servers are 1) accessible only by pc players, creating a divide between console/pc runs, and 2) private servers provide an unfair advantage in some cases - such as pagers triggering upon guard death almost immediately, compared to the usual 5-7 second (or so) wait a normal server runner would experience.

The rules regarding mods were also written due to similar reasonings as the aforementioned rule decisions, creating a divide between pc/console runners as well as opening the door to risk of cheating within runs, as mods can functionally be anything - from mere asset replacements, to skill tree/skill effect modification. A mod that makes "rush" provide a 12% movement speed bonus over the base game 10% would be incredibly hard to notice from mere eye-review.

Future leaderboard steps:

As with every leaderboard, nothing is ever set in stone - and things are always subject to change depending on what the community wants or desires. We've personally seen some really good suggestions for categories, such as:

• Maskless%
• Full Stealth
• Full Loud
• All loot
• Asset-less
• Random Seed

We hear the demand for such categories, and feel that these categories would be more suited to a category extensions type of page - in an effort to maintain the simplistic choices of the main leaderboards for new runners to not be overwhelmed by too many choices. The category extension leaderboard shall be coming soon (TM).

Some of the aforementioned categories would also only be possible on some heists rather than all heists, which is complicated to do with speedrun.com's leaderboard settings. For example, "Maskless%" is impossible for 'Road Rage' as the game automatically forces you to mask up - however - speedrun.com's leaderboard settings would mean every individual level (even Road Rage) would have this category applied to them.

Another point of discussion was the decision about the seperation of PC/Console runners in order to provide each runner a leaderboard without feeling pressure from the other type of runner. Ultimately we decided against this as with co-op runs being possible cross-platform, it'd result in categories sometimes having PC/Console split, whilst others not having that split, which may be confusing for new runners. HOWEVER, runs can be filtered based on the platform it was performed on, allowing console runners to compare runs with other console runners.

Once again, leaderboards can always be changed - nothing is set in stone completely. So we can change things if the community need or desire arises. This post was meant to ensure clarity for why decisions were taken the way they were, and we hope you can appreciate our reasonings for these decisions.

If you have any questions about either the rules, or the next steps of the leaderboards, we're more than happy to answer - either here, or in the discord server: here.

Your guys' suggestions are great ideas, and we hear you. Levi and I feel most of these suggestions would be more greatly felt across on a category extensions type page, rather than the main page. Adding all these categories to the main page would become rather unwieldy and cumbersome from a visual point of view, and would serve to overwhelm new runners with too many choices when they first view the leaderboards. However, as I said, these suggestions will likely come in the form of a category extensions page within a few weeks! <3

We understand your frustrations, and i hope you understand we didn't make this decision lightly. The reason we leaned towards this rule is to help improve competitive integrity between different runners, especially across PC/Console platforms - as for example - a custom FOV mod would allow players to gather more visual information than a player without a custom FOV mod.

With the current state of modding being up in the air until starbreeze writes up their modding policy - we will continue to monitor the situation regarding mods and refine this rule as more time passes. Remember, rules can always be tweaked down the line! :)

Leaderboards are now in active construction - remember your hardhats folks!

Pay no mind to the layout/rules as of this exact moment in time, as they are purely provisionary. A full announcement will be made once all is finalised, as well as stating future plans - including some category suggestions y'all have provided! :)
