@TheRailwayNoob87 That's just how the site works after the most recent page update. If a time has .000 milliseconds, then the milliseconds aren't displayed at all

Having an input display shown isn't the problem, I've had NohBoard in my layout since I've been speedrunning NES games. The main problem is including the full attempt session in the submission description. I prefer not to have my full attempt recordings public in any way, and having it in the description of my run is still having it public, as anyone can go to the pending tab on my profile to see it, so I'd much rather have a mod/verifier DM me on Discord when they're about to verify my run, and I'll send them a video of my full attempt session there when I have time. I also prefer not to keep my full attempt recordings, so after my run has been verified, I'll delete them.

I've been through a lot of confusion on what frame you complete a level, therefore you are allowed to force quit/time ends. Please, can I have an answer.

On January 15th, 2024, I posted in the Geometry Dash Speedruns Discord server saying I got a run the night before, but I force-quit at 99.94%, and the icon was fully inside the wall, so I didn't know if the run was valid. [1] Maximum later replied saying it wasn't valid, [2] and I wasn't sure if that meant the icon has to be fully past the wall or if the progress bar is what matters.

Two days after that, I submitted a run thinking it was a 4:30.267 because I thought the icon has to be fully past the wall, but after the run got verified, it was retimed to a 4:30.250, which meant the end frame was when the icon was fully inside the wall. [3]

Two weeks later, on the 31st, I got a 100% run, and since the aforementioned run was retimed with the end frame to be when the icon was fully inside the wall, I decided to go with that when figuring out the time and got 4:44.667 instead of 4:44.683 [4]

Is the frame of the level completion the frame the icon is fully inside the wall or the frame the icon is fully past the wall? Please, I've been through a lot of confusion, can I have an answer. I'm very sorry for my passive-aggressiveness, I can't wrap my head around all this.

there are some classic categories where the world record is impossible to beat on 2.2.

Which categories, specifically?

They’re both below 3:20, which is why I’m asking.

Do you have the FDS BIOS ROM file?

In other words, why do the decimals end with 00, 16, 33, 50, 66, and 83, and not 00, 17, 33, 50, 67, and 83?

I've retimed both runs, and here are the results: stewie_cartman:   11 1  11   19:42.436   24:20.162 +52:49.064 1:36:51.662 (Frame Count: 349,274)

Mars02:   1   11   19:15.430   23:05.901 +54:30.614 1:36:51.945 (Frame Count: 349,291)

As you can see, Stewie beat Mars by seventeen frames. So he should have the world record, and Mars should be in second place. But if you mods don't want to make this change, no worries!

Just having this for my own purposes (and possible everyone's purposes). :​) Makes Sense: :​) → :) ;​) → ;) :​( → :( :​| → :| :​o → :o :​P → :P :​p → :p B​) → B) ​-- → -- <​3 → <3

Makes Sense, but Could Change: :​/ → :/ (Why not make it "🫤"? I personally don't like ":/" turning into "😕.") :​\ → :\ (Why not make it "🫤"? I personally don't like ":" turning into "😕.") ​>:( → >:( (Why not make it "😠"? I personally don't like ">:(" turning into "😡.")

And seriously, please can we have a setting to toggle auto-emoticon-to-emoji? :​(

My point is not, "We must match the runs with the TAS." My point is, “Three of the four statements on the timing doc are one frame too slow (too fast?)." Like, if you activate ‘Recording’ mode in the TAS Editor, you’ll see the inputs appearing in the TAS Editor the frame before the emulated frame when pressing buttons in real time and going frame by frame.
