Updated 4 years ago by Rastats

Submitting a speedrun is easy, it only requires a few steps :

1. Go to https://speedrun.com/trackmania and select a TrackMania game.

2. Go to the Leaderboards and select the category you have speedrunned, then click on Submit Run.

3. A form like this should appear : https://i.ibb.co/BNTr019/Submission-page-Trackmania-Stadium.png

A) Category : Make sure it is the category you have speedrunned.

B) Player : Leave the box blank.

C) You are : Click on Player 1.

D) Time without loads (RTA w/o loads, for TrackMania² games only) : This timing method doesn't take into account loading times between tracks, fill the boxes ONLY if you used the TrackMania Load Remover whose tutorial is available here : https://www.speedrun.com/tm2stadium/guide/ktact .

E) Time with loads (RTA) : The total time elapsed from the start to the end of a speedrun, including the time spent in the menu and the loading times.

F) In-game Time (IGT) : The sum of your finish times on all the tracks you played. It can be calculated manually with the InGame Time Calculator ( https://www.speedrun.com/tmturbo/resources ) or directly during a speedrun with the Manual Game Time component in Livesplit. If you restart a track, don't forget to take into account the time spent driving on the track before the restart by analysing your video frame by frame in a video editing software.

G) Maniaplanet (for TrackMania² games only) : the Maniaplanet version of the game at the time of your speedrun. MP4 by default. For any speedrun done before 20th May 2017, click on MP3.

H) Platform : PC, XB1, PS4, DS or Wii depending on the TrackMania game.

I) Date : Fill with the date of your speedrun.

J) Video link : Share the Youtube or Twitch link corresponding to the video proof of your speedrun. For Twitch links, send stream highlights and not stream broadcasts because stream broadcasts are temporary.

K) splits i/o : Splits.io allows you to easily share your splits times to other runners. Upload a splits file on https://splits.io and share the ID corresponding to the file (ex : 4x5i for https://splits.io/4x5i ).

L) Description : Comment your speedrun, give your track times for IGT speedruns, ask questions to moderators,...
