People shouldn't be confused because it says in more than one spot you can use skips. This also isn't a CTGP category extensions page, this is for the normal MKWii tracks.
We don't need new or more mods, but it takes 2 months to verify runs. Perfect logic there.
While I don't think a forum post for a run not getting verified is really ever necessary (there's better ways to get in contact), I don't entirely agree with the viewpoint of "give the mods time, they're volunteers." There are 12 mods. The argument that some of them are there for purposes of respect because they're good at the game is bullshit. If there's 12 mods, it shouldn't take that long for runs to get verified. Just because you're a volunteer doesn't mean you don't have responsibilities. If you've had a run sitting waiting for verification for a month and a half @Mars02 , I salute you for being as patient as you're being. I would never think a run sitting for that long with this quantity of mods would ever be reasonable.
I got my last one on eBay without the cables or sensor bar for $20.
You can record with a phone or a webcam. You don't need a capture card. Mods can't make exceptions for unsubstantial proof because of background info. It also doesn't make any sense that you wouldn't have submitted any runs prior to having a good enough time to negate video proof.
If I start getting an influx of suspicious/ fake photos as proof, I'd be willing to move over to mandating video proof.
Since very nearly everything is on a self timer in this game, isn't the only source of optimization just doing the boss fights quicker?
Thanks for letting me know. I examined the photo and somehow didn't catch that. To be completely honest I personally am not extremely concerned about mandating video for this high score leaderboard as there have been scores acquired higher than those listed on the leaderboard, just that have not been submitted. At one time there were some everyplay videos of scores around 5000, 7000, etc.
From my knowledge the preexisting TT leaderboard has all of the records for time trials, and that leaderboard definitely has existed for much longer than this one. RTA Grand Prix Speedruns are different from TTs, so I think them being separated makes perfect sense.
why should there be another leaderboard if one already exists
I really wasn't trying to advise someone to quit, more so just calling him on his claim that he's practicing 6 hours a day. There's absolutely no way you're just not improving at all if you're playing that much.
I would just like to add that if you legitimately are practicing 6 hours a day and not showing any improvement, then you should definitely just quit. I'm guessing you aren't actually practicing that much.
We could also throw in All Pro no baseball, and there's probably more categories we could put in there as well that we'd just have to think of. Even if you current mods don't want to mod it, just request the leaderboard for us and let some of us mod it.
