Can one of moderators please check my 10 days old Over the Flagpole world record? Also I got Softlock world record.
I think that ever since the rules were changed, the mods have been extremely busy with the regular game than the category extensions. If you would like you can ask Barnowl or mav6771, both of which should be completely OK with verifying them.
Barnowl says that he can't verify my WR's, because they are too optimal and it need somebody, who can see correct time. Also, after changing rules, work of moderatores became where easier then it was before deleting Individual levels. I'm asked i_o_l and didn't got answer, I don't know where currently mav6771
The queue for SMB1, SMB2J and SMBCE is around 20 combined right now, so it's not that bad compared to the 100+ before the changes were made.
Please realize that we volunteer our free time to verify runs. We aren't paid to do this and I wouldn't consider it fun. Its work and it's something that requires a lot of attention to look for things that could be suspicious or to retime/frame count runs and several other things. Not all of the mods actively verify runs. The time I spend verifying runs could be spent otherwise by doing things like playing with my dog or going on a hike or streaming or something with several other interests that I have. Also, I work a normal 8-5 job. So yeah, sometimes you gotta wait a bit because we have other things besides speedrunning going on.
Yes, I understand, of course, I'm also have problem with speedruning more time. I wasn't patient because got 2 world records (3 with Beat 1-1 as Fire mario).
Sorry, mods, I can understand you problems, but I did 24.992 beat 1-1 as fire mario 10 days ago, can somebody please verify it?
I was once waiting a month and would wait longer but I spoke with Kosmic. And this poor guy waited for 7 months https://www.speedrun.com/run/dy4g1ony
I feel like we need more manpower on the mods, I know they volunteer, and I know sometimes it can take some time to retime. That's why, we need more mods, so when some aren't available, others are, instead of waiting months. And some of the mods, rarely verify other people's runs.
Hey Folks!
Just wanted to announce a new change to timing methods for both 11x categories. The new timing standards are as follows:
- Timing starts from power-on/reset (or game select if you're using one of the combo cartridges).
- Timing ends on grabbing the axe on the 11th run.
- Time betw
