Hi guys, this is actually my first post here and I would like your input about this and sugestions how to proceed:
I have made a timed attemp at Resident Evil 7 (I'll paste the link at the end if you want to check out the vid) in the category 100% New Game Easy. Now it was rejected twice by one of the RE 7 moderators, someone I actually follow on twitch speedrunning stuff. The reason for the rejection the first time was : This is not a speedrun, it's a guide"
Since I dind't find any way to at least clarify with him what he meant by that, because my intent was not as a "guide" when I recorded it, I resubmited the run and in the description I wrote "This is not a guide, this is my attempt at the best time I could do. There are other runs with more time in madhouse in other categories (not 100%)
This run is completly within the rules established and no rules refer to what is and what is not "a guide" and as such be discarded."
The answer the 2nd time was simply " its not a speedrun"
Now I don't claim it's a good speedrun like the ones he makes, but I claim it is my speedrun nonetheless in that particular category. I even asked some friends about it, for example if theres some sort of a time limit of what you ca do, and they said they never heard of it.
What am I missing here? What can be done?
