You might need to get Discord if you want to organize something big like a Tourney.
So is it really worth trading? Or just farm kill some endermen in a warped forest?
Isn’t pearl trading not efficient in .201?
This run is not even close to my world record run and probably slower than the #2 run and for some reason the mod who verified it put it as #1.
Rewatch it and re-time it please...

Also, could a mod re-time my run because i believe it is a 1:06, not a 1:07. I may be wrong but it sure is wr.
Well- some mods arent even 13, at least one that I know of.
I know where you are coming from, Time, and I agree with you that they have to show the timer and try to show the lobby before and could even prove that they aren’t in a party by doing “/p” or “/c p”. There is many ways to make your run more verifiable and help the mods know you didn’t fake it even if you didn’t just because that’s how it should be.
But what I realized when running, and even NG staff confirmed it for me, that the scoreboard timer isn’t accurate enough when the server is lagging or other variables that can make the in-game timer inaccurate. (Go to #support on the Speedrun server and go to my last messages and there you will see what I mean, explained better with an example, and the link to the message on NG discord support channel confirming me that the scoreboard timer is inaccurate).
So that’s why in The Bridge runs we decided to make it so the time starts when we hit the floor (we can know that by looking at the visual sound wave it makes when in the editing program) and then we sync the video up with the timer. The run ends when the frame of the victory screen appears, so you don’t stop the timer before it appears, you stop it as soon as the first frame appears and that is your time in milliseconds. So for my run, which is the #1 on The Birdge at the moment, that’s what I did since we can’t rely on the scoreboard timer.
Even on my video you can see that inaccuracy of the timer that it sometimes didn’t even show the countdown when getting out of the cage like it happened after my 3rd goal I believe.
Also on the Bedwars category we also start the timer when the player first starts moving (as you can see in my other video “fastest final kill”) and end the same way; when the first frame of the victory screen pops up.
So we have two options, we use our own timing system and time it how I explained it above and still have the NG timer for reference because it is consistent most of the time. Or we use the NG timer primarily and the server lag or individual lag could be a form of RNG since we can’t control that.
I personally would rather have our own way of timing and using milliseconds too but also have the scoreboard timer so people don’t fake runs and just have it as another visual aid to verify runs. If we choose option 2, some people will always have a disadvantage when running because not everyone lives close to the server proxies and will lag and have a higher ping or other variables like that.
I agree with this, even in the discord server the moderation is such a mess and channels filled with spam and bots so it gets annoying and very unprofessional. Some mods aren’t even the age required to be a mod. This game actually has potential but the moderation needs to up their game. Or get new and better mods and demote the ones that aren’t helping.
