Hello,
I have tried a little experiment for a youtube video. I asked myself if it's possible that a fake speedrun got verified. I spliced a 16 Star Speedrun, got a 17:32 I know it's not a world class run. But i think this is good enough for this experiment.
Here ist the run: https://www.speedrun.com/sm64/run/yl0qgo2y

Here some weird Parts:
7:39 - I have 32 Coins but after i entered the Pipe i have 15 Coins. Magic.
11:46 - after Mario enters the door you can hear the splice. At 15:20 too.
There are some more splices but ther not so obvious. For these you need to analyse the Audio spektrogramm to find it out.
@afnannen136 I was inspired by this video:
I would see if this is today possible too.
I don’t blame the mods for not watching every second of a ~200th place 16 star run. Tons of runs are submitted daily, especially for SM64.
I’m sure if you sloppily spliced together a top ~25 score it wouldn’t have been verified so easily.
Funnily enough, gothic was suspicious of your run. I probably wouldn't have thought twice about it
There's not enough time in the day or anyone's lives to watch every mediocre run that gets submitted, it's more about verifiability (being able to verify the run if need be) than actually verifying the run at the time of submission.
Try to post a fake 15 next time, if you wanna expose us.
@Alaris_Villain
Oh okay. I don't know that he find the run suspicious. Thank you for the Information. :)
I Was Just Opening this site,and here i found a "cheater" (lol).
@A_Logical
No it's not to make mods feel bad. I know that it is not possible to watch all thousand of runs.
I have make this for a Youtube Video.
I tried the same thing with another game called Honshogi: Naitou Kudan Shogi Hiden a very unknown game. I tried to fake a WR. But the run was rejected.
My Conclusion is that it is not possible today to verify a World Class Run like a 15 or 16 in Sm64 16 Star.
And look at Gothic Logic's post he said: " You sure showed me bud well done" I think he does not feel bad or something. Something can happen because the queue is a busy one.
I Hope These two runs were the only ones that are fake and you're not trying to actually cheat a lot of your "future runs" (If You'll ever speedrun more games/categories).
I do speedrun. But this is a 2nd Account because the Runner Loan Shark Joe Who made this Video
Was banned from Speedrun.com
This is why I made a 2nd Account.
@Akaya64 wait,that's supposed to be a second account based of loan shark joe's one?
@chooch23 let's not start to insult this guy,just because he did ONE Single Fake Speedrun And Admitted to it.
We would like to announce that VC and EMU subcategories are now active on the Stage RTA leaderboards (under "Levels"). Stage RTA involves collecting all the stars in a given stage including the 100 coin star. Timing starts on star select and ends upon collecting the final star. You are allowed to us
