Also, I just found out that the users request is completely broken. It always returns a bad request unless you search for a specific name/id. This also appears to have been broken for a few years.
This thread is 2 years old but I'm bumping it because this is still an issue, you can't get runs from the API with an offset of more than 10000.
If you're trying to get all runs on the website, as I am right now for something I'm working on, going by ascending order you can only get up to November 2014, if you go descending you can only get runs from the last 4 days. This makes getting runs like this pretty much useless, so you have to specifically search for every individual game (or category) to get all runs.
However you can't even do that since some categories have more than 10000 runs, in fact the biggest Subway Surfers category has 25000. As is mentioned above, you can get 20000 runs by sorting by both ascending and descending, but that still isn't enough.
This is a serious limitation that doesn't seem to have any reason to be here. Even if you're not trying to get every single run on the boards, there are many pretty reasonable things that can't be done because of this. With this issue being 2 years old I'm a little sceptical this will be resolved, but seriously why hasn't this been fixed?
If you have an idea for a category you can submit it to the category extensions under Submit Category (https://www.speedrun.com/racextras). However, I don't think anyone would be interested in a glitchless category because it wouldn't be interesting or fun.
Hi, I have submitted a WR run for the game https://www.speedrun.com/httpsarmorgames.complay68195xman It has one moderator that was last online a year ago, and the last world record took 2 months to be verified. I would like to be a moderator of this game as the only mod is extremely inactive.
