CanadaThanks Super!
Moderator note:
The Legend of Zelda (Famicom Remix) has been added as a needed category. While NES Remix and the Japanese-exclusive Famicom Remix are 90% identical for competitive purposes, the Legend of Zelda themed stages are the exception. Not only does the Japanese version's NPC text display twice as fast (automatically making times impossible to achieve on NES Remix), but the enemies are rearranged throughout all the stages. Mammaru's times have been moved to that category.
Hi everyone!
First, let me say it's my pleasure to be a new member of Speedrun and part of this great community. I became intrigued with this site after many references to it from articles in my news feed related to gaming achievements.
I have been playing NES Remix competitively since August of 2014 - just over 10 years ago. The original timestamps for all of my scores can be found at Cyberscore, where I sharpened and honed my skills against the likes of andrewg, KingBoo, packattack and many others. I became a Moderator there recently as well, verifying proofs.
Something I will mention here, is that NES Remix was released on Dec 18, 2013 and was updated to version 1.1.0 by the end of that month. The original version was flawed in that pausing repeatedly would lower your time on any given challenge. Luckily, the update eliminated that and restored integrity and robustness to the game. The Clear Time was changed to a light blue color, from dark blue, so all scores earned fairly on the fixed version are clearly distinguishable. This will be considered in run verification here as well.
I have many top scores across this series, including on NES Remix 2 and Ultimate NES Remix for the 3DS. Before that I was an avid WarioWare and Mario vs. Donkey Kong (GBA) player. All of my scores, times, and worldwide standings can be found at Cyberscore.me.uk.
Enjoy the challenge my newly submitted NES Remix times will present. They are equal parts mystery solving and speedrunning ;)
I will do my best to serve this community with honor, respect, and dedication. Happy gaming to everyone :)

I always consider myself a puzzle solver more than a speed runner, and this game doesn't hold your hand like more recent iterations of the concept. Enjoy the challenge and I will do my best to serve this community with honor and dedication. Feel free to contact me here or directly :)

The original version was flawed in that pausing repeatedly would lower your time on any given challenge. Luckily, the update eliminated that and restored integrity and robustness to the game. Old Clear Times from version 1.0.0 were displayed in Dark Blue (navy) and remained as such even after the update. But all Clear Times achieved after the update were presented in Light Blue (cyan). This is a key factor in determining the legitimacy of a score.
The physical edition of this game, NES Remix pack, had the version update built-in.

I have messaged the user politely requesting any form of proof- a screenshot, scrolling video, or full run video. I have explained that times must be for version 1.1.0, and shown in the corresponding Light Blue color from the menu. After two weeks, if there is no response, I will remove the unverified time.

It is impossible to surpass 22.8, which already requires a fast acceleration to achieve. This is a basic reach the flagpole SMB challenge.
I have contacted MudSabs and DarQ about this, as my support ticket for cheating suggested I do. The time by Sheela is a stain on the credibility of the site in my opinion, it's been up for over half a decade without proof. It could have been an honest mistake, who knows.
Thank you for your attention to this matter,
