Most runs are around 5 or 4 minutes long and all you really have to do is watch it there isn't any frame by frame or anything so I disagree with that statement not to mention the fact that runs do not get submitted that often and if it really is that big of a deal that it's too much to handle we could just get more mods we literally only have 1 and the only really big deal is the fact the weekly changes every week but a rule could be set in place that after the run it is required you show the weekly pack it was ran on so that custom packs couldn't just be used and be like yeah that's the weekly pack
I dont know what % this would fall under but i think there should be weekly leaderboard since it is constantly changing and I think that would be fun for a leaderboard also this is the only pack without a category so thats just another reason. However, I do see problems with top times being unbeatable because if there was 1 weekly pack with like the best pets ever and it could never be topped I could see how that might cause a problem in terms of the leaderboard having the same top 3 for 2 years or something also i dont know if sap is going to be removing weeklies ever so that might be 1 thing to consider if a leaderboard is decided to be made.
I don't think this should be a thing since the entire point of speedrun .com is speedrunning and it is even stated in the rules that run should be played with the intent of beating it fast and I assume you got this idea from the minecraft community which can only do that because the game is designed in a way that doesn't force a player to sit on 1 portion of the game specifically like 1 round just to make the run long so I don't think that will ever be a thing in this community specifically
1 problem with that what if they add a new expansion pack then you need a whole new sub category because any good runner could beat 3 packs before someone else beats 4 and then the top time is nearly unbeatable kind of like all patch combined right now which has a time of like 2:39 or something which is extremely hard to beat if not unbeatable in the current state of the game or rather pack 1 with literally everything being nerfed and otter the big one being just a buffed apple kind of so make sure to take that factor into account
Interesting then why was my run taken down for not showing pack selection kinda seems like you're playing favorites in my opinion I mean the proof is kind of right there not to mention the rule is pointless give the fact that the main screen sprite right next to the word "pets" changes depending on the pack you have mine was turtle meaning I had the standard pack on but what was your reasoning for that not mattering oh I remember now you can just change custom packs icons to turtle and then you could get away scot free potentially except no you can't sap literally prevents you from doing so but great moderation skills keep it up
But isn't that still Android world record also showing pack doesn't do much but make people waste more time while speedrunning the game Also the icon in the top right right next the word pets changes depending on your pack and as clearly seen in the video it's a turtle which guess what means standard pack
