Due to a recently submitted "world record" run that was obviously cheated (sped up gameplay, no gamesound or music, no visible round counter, etc) I thought I'd add this warning in case anyone attempts the same thing.

As someone who has ran this game a lot and has held top times I can tell pretty quickly if a run is legitimate or not. If you post a run that is a major record such as monkey lane I'll make sure before it is verified it is checked properly. It's pretty easy to tell if a run is sped up, spliced or modified in any way thanks to how simple BTD5 is.

I'm not expecting anyone to ever try to pass off such a clearly cheated run again as this is the first time I've seen it but I'm putting this I guess you could call "policy" here anyway.

If you post a run that is found out to be cheated, you will be allowed 1 chance to admit wrongdoing and be allowed to post as normal again. Deny you cheated without providing counter-evidence or continue to post cheated runs and you will be banned permanently from the BTD5 leaderboards and all previous runs will be removed. Zero tolerance and all that.

Note that I don't consider breaking one of the rules by accident or because you didn't know them cheating. I'm talking about posting a run that is clearly only intended to get a false record. Runs that just break the normal rules will be rejected as normal but that's it.

It's BTD not SM64, why would you even care enough to cheat anyway.
