Yeah
Where did r6c2 come from
Did someone suggest that
đ
r6c2
i was gonna say
please don't
I was voting
is it r5c2 main or 100% too
For r6c2
What am I voting for here
Hate to say
r6c2
r5c2 100% or main what is that
i trust it's 100% surely
yeah sure, i'll hold you to it
100% more interesting
ping me here when it ahppens
uhh
whats current wr again
what if the channel gets killed by then
90:00
for r4e1?
no 5 euros shame on yo
jish knows
Like 41 mins or something
i know that one
41 minutes doesn't sound bad i can easily solo it
100% will easily not have many people joining tho
well... that's it with bringing some new groups
I donât think r6 story is getting much either
ngl i voted it just cause i want to see more runs of it
Cause itâs over 25 mins right guys
fun run to watch
but nothing for people who might be interested in a fun run to try
2 teams are running this xd
LOL
maybe 3rd
nah savis team is busy
trust i'll get a team team
We can bully frosty out of your group so he makes a new team
is it just the 100% that puts off people or is it R5C2 in general|?
i'll just post in #lfg-beginners for r5c2 100% speeds
100%
100% will hurt
Those players
the strat for 100% to do it fast is not something most people will pull off
who are new
but what are they competing against
any% MIGHT get some players, but it is already on the edge, 100% strat is just giga fucked
Theyâre not competing for the wr surely
runs done by which individual, on which level, under which conditions (gtfo%? individual level runs?), under which circumstances (one and done? multiple runs until a decent baseline time is had?)
as I said, a good time is a function of the amount of time you put into running the level
if you spend 90 minutes and don't give a fuck about cleaning everything up wrt your movement/minimising wasted time then yeah of course the time is going to be bad, but that's a function of time invested and not of the run being easy or difficult
If itâs not wr and itâs something different
sub 50 !!
Something more achievable
or sub 45 idk
Then sure
sub 1:10 is more reasonable tbh
whenever i pub that level it's always 1:30 ore more lol
its been a long time since i played
its decently hard
Itâs not that hard tbh
mixed messages
Imo there is obviously a difference between a grinded out multiple attempt singular run. And a run in say gtfo full game where you are under mercy of rng and dont want to wipe
now lets look at R8B4
19:08 was gtfo any% time
What do you think is a 100% reproducable time with worst rng?
i mean depends on the player lmao
are you asking the thousand hours players or the average player
everyone here is above at least 2k hours lmao
R4C3, R6C3, R7C3, R8C2
id say top 5?
nerds
excuse me
guys the average players will not be participating most likely
forgetting someone
u get a skull emoji
okay then it's not that hard
my b g
wat
u literally named a memory level, melee level and an ammo tight level
huh?
they're like gimmick
are we talking about 100% or main
100%
okay but if the average player is not partecipating r5c2 100% is good no?
nahh
yea
To make an informed decision I'd need more familiarity with the level, but given there's 6 mins between the gtfo% and your run then yes, most likely you can always beat 19:08 if you play well?
But why does that matter at all as a qualifier? A bad unpracticed run is slow and easy to beat if you're focused and minimising your time loss, so I'm still befuddled as to the point you're arguing
nah
think yea
it's a good challenge
oh I misread
just cause an average player isnt participating doesnt mean i want to make it inaccessable to them
idk I can't give you a time unless I know the level and how much time is lost from each segment if you roll badly or play poorly
guys
id agree with the 2nd part if the time difference between it and the gtfo full game wasnt bigger than the WR and it
you can easily get 15 min everytime. The only rough part being the start which is realistically only a challenge if you dont find ammo at all (you can just loot for 10 seconds and get a 4 use safe)
Thatâs why they should compete to beat an easier time
there is a diffrent angle here
Instead of WR
Take current time as benchmark rng, add the time loss from bad rng, then add on +10-15% from that for sloppy play
what level do we want to run the least
well yeah
R5C2 100% fast strat is inaccessable for them for sure tho
ezpz
hold on guys my mic stand fell off
make a comp to be cuter than sky
R1A1
no
oh god
we can mid max the time
MID MAX
we can try to get it lower
what
MID MAX
MID
yeah thats the plan
trust
pretty much everyone wil get a role
and then the special coloured role is given to the sweatlords that are top three
k so here's the strat: get like 10 different shows totaling to about a week worth of watch time: and then each player hosts the lobby 1/4th of the time and everyone watches together shows while the host is resetting for 8 hours
R6 story%
R3D1
R5C2 main
and some other ones
are way more accessable
R6 story% biggest wall is Reactor skip, especially since cycle skip in the boss fight saves nearly a minute and is not smth many will pull off
either fastest in general or first to beat a certain time
i wish you could run multiple gtfo instances to run r1a1 so you can reset everytime like minecraft speedruningdoes
the advantage of choosing say R3D1 is that we can choose a goal time (like 11 minutes) which is reachable but tough so the "sweatlords" as soy called them have a good goal to reach
We got the Minecraft speedrunning mention
bro my game crashes at 1 instance, running 2 is a death sentence
no offence to the sweatlords btw
The speedrunning argument criteria has been complete
keep up the good work
oh dw
lmao
i prefer a different liquid
if jish idea gets put forward maybe I can start calling myself a Sweatsage 
SO CLOSE
still need a different liquid
if i still vaped i would try a sweatsage flavour
xD
on if 100% is the way to go or not
guys can we just agree on r3d1
^
R3D1 would be good.
Consensus
what about R3A2 instead?
I like the odds for a sub 3:20 jish
r3d1 is the first level with the big mother right
ye
yea
yeah
what's the timer for r3d1 then
ok i kinda remember that one
to get the non sweat badge
12 mins if your being nice
if 11 is to beat wr?
sub 14
well i think that level is in my skill level
Isn't that a high-roll-fest?
so ill set the baseline
id say sub 11 for "Sage"
and sub 15 for general speed?
you wanna know the theoretical odds ray 
sub 15 general speed would be good
you actual gtfo players can figure out the good time to beat
sub 15 seems good
no rng for sub 15, while not requiring the most fucked strats
maybe?
do u think sub 10 is possible lol
nope
yes
then ues
R3A2 sub 3:20 would take a theoretical 1 in 1.500.000.000 (obviously rounded)
its unclear whether that seed can even exist
there's a solo guide
i am pretty sure
for r3d1?
the jish guide goes hard
wait i never seen it
LOL
that seed gonna hit so hard when it has the 7 giant on path to first team scan xd
It is me making fun of a solo montage player
eh 3 scatterguns
For 7 mins
i need it
ooooh
that one back then
wasnt that the same guy who posted the screenshot with feet
Is that the same guy
i want to forget
ty jish
I thought GoN Arch was a different guy
how the fuck did i know this guy before playing gtfo
i had him on my steam friends through gunfire reborn
LOL
Someone carry Soy
I can host for you if yo uwant?
hey its not my fault they removed all of my completions
the game told me to do the tutorial first as well
just r3d1 how its meant to be
yeah that might be for the best
damn soy washed
who has time rn?
nuh uh
beginner

i do but i may or may not write on the logger mid run
and we all know what happens in charger zone
this tutorial goes hard omw to get a sub 10
if im gonna play with you guys we have to run meme builds to make it fair
i really like the hard cut
https://discord.gg/hpsKFyph
R3D1? for soy
it is so funny
did you like the speedrun music
in the background
oh it brings me back to when i was a teenager
Does it have to be just one level, btw?
i think we've decided on R3d1 for this one
but if you have a suggestion ill take it in mind for next time i do one
Probably R5E1 or R7E1.
Hard speeds w/ varied strats
and both under 30 minutes
(even not on the most optimal route)
ray this is not accessible
yeah only 2 teams are gonna run thisâŚ
Non-Brazil-skip R7E1 is pretty relaxed
ig but it's an E tier
if that means anything
pubs can't clear those not talking about speed
yeah think about the average players!!!
yes yes !!
I don't think pubs are participating in this in general
the average players that are totally going to be interested in speedrunning
colored role is a colored role
Like, the R6C1 ended up being 3 teams in the end anyway
ill partecipate
And became boring almost immediately because it was too easy to optimize
r3d1 will be the same btw
i mean that's just how it is
game is dead no?
for short levels yeah
i see more vc's with farm merge valley than gtfo
Theyâre boring as fuck to optimise
r7e1 with brazil skip would be one of the best choices ngl
ah yes that will get many people joining
I think R7E1 would be good just because you can get a decent time w/out Brazil skipping
Brazil skip is like a 2min time save
after this competition im down to do some random ass levels that will only have 2 teams playing
thatâd be fun probably
this is the only one that i intend to try and make actually accessable
cuz its the sendoff for this channel
yes i want to see speedrunners fight against each other

play with them
i go work
Wesley's sum of best is 4:05.9 unless he got a better run
That's scary
i think sum of best for like the entire community was like 4.05.7xx
Is R6D1 even viable to run after sniper nerf
yes
but also cycle skip is known now which is some extra time you dont spend in the level
client tumor things
Shooting it before it pops on your end so you get extra damage
With the goal of skipping a cycle
You can over damage tumors. By having a low tumor and or shooting a tumor that has already popped by not popped on your end
If you over damage by 12 sniper shots
Then you would have skipped a phase
Oh like that
Yeah
It is âeasyâ to do
You just have to be accustomed with your teamâs latency and you have 4 sniper shots of error
The set up is like 12 dmr plus 9 sniper
To bring tumor to 1 hp but you have to adjust based on damage fall off calculations that kinda just need to be eye balled
If you donât then you will lose your 4 sniper shots of error and only have 3

Dw frosty I'm crashing out when I get home in 4 hours
Anytime but not for Australian timezone friendly :)
what level again
GTFO sex%
r3d1 i think
nah
(impossible)
majority agreed on r3d1
More like
when and where
.
i guess i zoned out/went to get food at that part
went from sigma to beta
here
@candid jackal
i dont mean to single you out jish sigma boy
aight
ive wanted to run it for like a year
witch hunt this man
Ngl if the role is called smth like GTFO SAGE
then we give jish massive props
You guys
Just
Splat on all my ideas
It is worse than high school
at least you donât dunk my head in the use urinal but I feel like you all would try to if you could
wtf
i'm not sure if i'll find r3d1 all too compelling to run
complexity dips when there's only one thing to be doing at a time, with how short the level is scan rng ends up becoming quite a large determinant
Huh
ikr
Like this.. or general gtfo?
r3d1
also just force star or smth
when does it start
make em
speedrunning is just a set of learned behaviours
yeah exactly
also sub 16(:08?) is pretty casually doable
you go and shoot
no logs, no fancy strats
for r3d1 u mean?
Yup
my pubs get like 18 to 19 occasionally
yea
duo time barely beating sub 15 smh
isn't it 14:40
Yup
So you will save time on every section of scans
With 4
You just need to make it to the team scans on time
if double foam is still fastest strat i'm gonna cry
its less about being faster and just being safer
if done badly 2nd alarm is slower with foam
no
yes
Also crazy timing to gundyrs theme picking up 
i dont disagree, but i hate that an absolute perfectly executed run can get fked by rng
thats just speedrunning in a lot of games for you
it is, and it is precisely why i personally dont like it
well one of the main reasons at least
me when I had 2nd place nmg pace in PP Ch1.3 but didnt get last pole skip due to rng and fucked it
well @cloud depot you could just do some 4fun fast runs 
if it was on smthin like r4e1 i wouldve considered doing that maybe, but i dont find just doin r3d1 fast particularly interesting, not much of a challenge even with my skilled issued self
meanwhile quick r4e1 even if im not goin for wr is still fairly diffcult
for me at least
r4e1 is more rng lmao
i sk balls
i mean in the context of just going for a "fast" run
not for a wr
otherwise for a lot of earlier runs its just skill
ah
for wr ya
i think ur run is more or less optimized skill wise
maybe like slight time loss on reactor
shadow zone full sprint max skill progression unlocked when
fair enuf
probably never cause idk if we're pushing the time to a point where that matters
that could be like sub 29 angle
id have to see what sub 30 run looks like
yeah r4e1 is mostly down to getting good keys, good cell in reactor (you're having a worse time if you don't roll e-trip or 2nd c-trip to use at blood door), and good scans once you're playing well
but it takes a fair amount of growing into to get that skill expression in each role and even still you can fuck up
well if in the future there is an r4e1 speed i'd prolly go for a "fast" run like i said, should be an interesting challenge, no intention of going or expecting a wr from me tho xd
and then there's more facets to perform and things to do than a lot of other levels which are more along the lines of running from point A to point B
yea i mean i imagine looting efficiently matters alot
way more than smthin like A-B speeds
Not even just that
A lot of speedruns you are really just running for scans and picking up one or two objects
yea in r4e1 you run for scans while picking up objects 
look, at least there's a bit more to it
yea like a reactor
harder levels always have more to them
doing all the stuff at reactor, resources afterwards, choosing when to use meds to push harder
you know like 3 way split ups
dealing with any scout waves when necessary
that just sounds like many speeds tbh, minus the reactor
more intense
r4e1 reactor is cool due to fast waves tho ngl
if that was a typical long reactor it would be so snooze
r4e1 already has 2 long waiting sections basically
i think there is a big diff in the intensity and leeway tho
like shadow zone when u sprint tho
is pretty scary xd
reactor is also no joke
well mostly w6
big? Eh
depends on what you compare
its definetly on the high end. But thats expected considering its an E tier
The harder the squeeze the better it feels
since there is only a few E tiers xd
some speeds bump up the run difficulty itself in crazy ways if you try and full send them
that sounds very wrong out of context lmao

what? everyone loves a good hug
well i cant argue with that
I have found people do not like being picked up when you hug em
they're just to tsundere
I wish someone would pick me up and not dunk my head into the toilet @placid marten
lmfao
Bruh whaaa
Id never do that
Id yoink peoples hats sometimes at worst
oh ya btw speaking of r4e1 speeds what's usually done to mom room? I only watched beth's run and she was defending reactor so not sure
im assuming prolly just blast
you hope theres a good path
you normally just walk through
best case
there is provision to kill em, Ray's the one who'd make that call
hope for sprint path
imagine killing mothers
i see
R3d1 and r8d2 the only true big mom friendly runs
sprint path doesn't really speed too much up (maybe on the way out of reactor?)
even on r5c2 you kill herâŚ
Way out yes
well you wouldnt wake them up cause bhopping
i see
well u prolly dont save THAT much time even with sprint path then, tho its nice for looting which i imagine helps quite a bit
You can force good path
One walk path almost always exists
honestly in theory how you play shadow zones is probably the biggest time save left
but that can get really fucked
the 3 moms on end room door
i dont quite understand what u mean by "force"
Bkh being 5s faster through mom zone doesn't mean you're 5s faster out of reactor anyhow
still bottlenecked by res grab
which is theoretically bottlenecked by mom zone
idk why you cant use telepathy to communicate where stuff is
I do it in some recent runs
smh
Wow this channel is so active now
All it took was it being faced with gettint thannos snapped
And a competition ig
yea I cant believe theres talks about this being read only
crazy decision by some admins i guess 
I mean part of me is somewhat second guessing it at this point
probably
If the channel was always this active itâd be obvious to keep it
But yeah, I doubt itâll stay this active
i mean in my case i literary only opened this channel cause i heard it was getting nuked lmao, and decided to join the convo
Dont tempt me
ill start sending fun facts about gtfo levels every day
surely
If only that was speedrunning related
eva posting a new quiz about gtfo until they slowly divert to quizzes about deadspace
Tbf if I kept up this whole challenges thing for a while I could probably change this to just be a gtfo challenge channel
But idk if that is blasphemous
Also Iâd rather make a forum to be honest
But we would miss out on goated lines like
if we speed into insults in an argument is that gtfo speedrun technically
Discord is a 3rd party service we need to not use it in speedruns
You think I dont have speedrun facts?
Yeah I probably should have realised you would
gtfo fun facts competition
who says more fun facts until they run out
Oh thatâs a good idea Iâll save it for later
omg u should do it with the devs maybs
would be a banger
I very much doubt theyâd have the time to do that
my joke
wdym
THAT IS MY IDEA. Ive done it 9 times and its going to happen soon with the devs 
my bit
Oh really?
Surprises me to be honest
it was planned last wed
but one had smth come up urgently so we are replanning
Its been in the works since gamescom man
if devs have time to be denning and wolving they b havin time for quizzin
Thatâs cool
Hey I only just became active again Iâm not in the loop
smh
ssmh
on that note
I also am planning to do a gtfo solo lockout bingo event
but me being sick got in the way of planning much
No commitment smh
But anyway Iâm gonna steal your idea of a quiz show for another competition
If anyone else has any ideas for me to steal lmk
something stupid i always wanted to do is a spanish game where u ask questions which answers go around the abecedary, like answers with A B C D and so on, but thats a very spanish game
not really something u can do in english
OY
Cry about it
oh no
occlusions e1 will find u
anyway i think its time to start the speedrun competition
I hope everyone has a gud time with it
im eating give me 5 minutes
D:
also just to clarify, this channel will remain like it is now until a little bit after the competition ends
Oooh
my excuse is im sick
And that I knew youd be stealing my quizshow idea
I shouldve trademarked it like the podcast smh
yeah ngl if some people try and find a loophole or some shit to get an advantage im gonna start exposing people
ill most likely verify any run anyway that gets sub 11:20
and no mods/cheats/glitches/boosters is mostly everything no?
the only thing ive thought of since is no runs completed before the date of the competition start
but idk how we'd check for that lmao
maybe
i might just do it as a rule for runs under 11 mins though
those are the only ones i imagine will need proper verification
maybe i shouldnt have said that publically
you guys are funny
am i funny :3
sometimes
yay
Thank you
@sullen silo Assuming that the runners are incentivized to get the lowest possible time, then the problem with choosing an "accessible" level is that getting the lowest time will generally devolve into grinding for as close to perfect RNG as possible. This shifts the 'accessibility barrier' for striving for the lowest time from 'being one of the best teams running' to 'being a good enough team running and having the most amount of time during the competition window'.
This was seen during 10CC's R6C1 competition. The teams that got the lowest times all grinded for dozens and dozens of hours, I think the winning team literally woke-up, grinded all day, went to bed for days in a row. No discredit to those teams, they're all good and their commitment and dedication is impressive, the point is simply that 'team that only has 8 hours to run because they have other real life commitments during the window' is simply not going to have chances of getting one of the lowest times. Entry into the competition will be accessible, but getting one of the lowest times will instead have a unhealthy barrier.
And of course if you choose an inaccessible level there'll be like 3 teams.
As such, I'd strongly recommend not incentivizing (or at least only weakly incentivizing) the lowest possible time.
My suggestion (similar to part of what was suggested by yourself) is to only have rewards for beating X time. You could even split this up to have gold/silver/participation time goals. Getting the lowest possible time could still have rewards from e.g. getting a shout out in the winning announcement, but I do not think it should have a disproportionately large reward in order to avoid too strongly incentivizing unhealthy amounts of grinding.
This would also give clear goals for all those participating, they have a time to beat and they don't need to care about anyone else, they're just competing against themselves and the clock.
And if some teams want to really grind it out for the lowest time, they can still do so, and get some clout and a shout out for doing so.
The reward
Is a discord role
I'm aware
and the time thing
was suggested by myself
yeah currently there is no extra reward for being the fastest team
i didn't expect anything before going into the ruleset but i'm still sorta disappointed/let down
i mean maybe ill think about something
Like
I agree
but thats a massive text for whats essentially a short statement
And thats coming from me who often also types up a lot

not being able to play for the vast majority of the competition period
guess it sucks if 3 teams beat 11m before i can even get to run!
Soy is unfamiliar with the speedrunning community. "lol A tier grindfest zzzzzz make it just a goal time" might make sense to you but Soy deserves a bit more explanation
hmm good point actually
it ties into what tru said above
because surely 3 teams will get sub 11 easily right
tho I do agree it should probably just be
Get sub 16? -> special role
get sub 11? -> extra special role
at a point it becomes about grinding for rng rather than being about skill expression
lf3 r3d1
it still is about skill expression
rng mattering is unavoidable. Its gtfo
but my 5 seconds running in a straight line!!!
trus point of grinding is tru(e) tho
can I play in my bed
think it'd be cool if the role for sub 11 stayed coloured but i guess some people wouldn't like that
what's better, sub11 role or NLO
me when theres an enemy on my term (i had to reset)
i should probably explain the roles a bit more
rn at least the plan is this
ya that'd help, and i should also state that there's no animosity towards you Soy
my ire is reserved for when people start saying stupid shit :)
yeah be aware that if things go wrong it is not your fault and we chatters were probably going to get mad at each other anyways đ
just want to point out that if things go wrong it is your fault soy and you should've never come back to the server
brilliant move
I know ty
anyone getting sub 16 gets a (i participated in this specific speedrunning competition) role, this one will be perminant but it wont be coloured.
Anyone getting sub 11 will also get an "Competition Winner" role that is coloured. After some time, essentially whenever i decide to make the next competition but at least a month probably, they'll lose that role and be given a non coloured equivalent, so that the next set of winners can be coloured instead.
While id love to keep people coloured forever, im not sure i could because eventally there would be so many people with the coloured role that it loses its unique-ness. Id also love to be able to make loads of roles for this kind of thing so its even more unique, but this is an offical server for the game and i have to keep it somewhat small scale at the end of the day.
i hope that explains it all
gtfo season 1 will go hard
goated soy
can we get the John wick skin for season 3
okay cool we go r4e1 sub 30 next month
if thats what people want
but im also gonna do non speedrunning stuff at some point
maybe alongside speedrunning, if people are into it enough
dont do r4e1 sub 30 that shits ass
gotta give the non speedrunners an opertunity to feel special
and r3d1 isn't?
it is
also this reads so ⌠wrong ngl
do you really expect anyone to get mad if it werent for a select few throwing up shit
Dont push that stuff on others
beth stop tabbing out hani needs you
id neveroops
im so sorry eva i didnt mean to delete that lmao
i meant to reply to it
guys lets all try to have fun and a good time and be really nice to each other with good sportsmanship đ
yeah

new rule anyone being a big meanie is disqualified
đ
and banned
and they get the big dumb stupid head role
time to get banned
yes
GIMME
speaking of roles
Re: level choice. I feel like 80% or the arguments about level choice earlier were made without the context of how the competition would be run (with solely goal time based role rewards) so feelings might change on that front.
(In particular I think a lot of people complaining about boring reset heavy levels might care a bit less strongly when its just a reasonable goal time they're up against)
im undecided on the name of the coloured one
unless you want it to be called red
Though I'm personally fine with R3D1, though it is a bit less accessible as far as things go
I just said it shouldnt be a competition
yes i want
bc this game sucks
why are you here
@wind cliff already gave the best choice
a red role thats called blue would go hard
yeah its certainly a good one
but i think the winners should be able to decide
bc I try my best to make the game not suck
this is good btw
having a time goal that is abit easier is good for accessability, and having one that is harder is good for people that want a challenge
incentive for both types of players
for the first half of this comment
that was⌠made clear tho
I guess it just shows that discord users rarely scroll up (gamers dont look up meme)
I read the entire convo from top to bottom, it was never clear that this was set in stone, it had only been thrown around as suggestions
Also in spirit of speedrunning
Time bounties are often a thing
i like time bounties
the comment also didnt indicate that you meant set in stone tbfâŚ
like for example "15:00 = bronzem, 13:00 = silver, 11:00 = gold"
it was indicated that it would probably be based on time goals
iirc soy said 2 roles only
yeah i gotta keep the amount lowish for now
irrespective of the way the competition is rewarded, I still believe it preferable to pick a level where the RNG component is more minimal compared to skill expression (i.e the most important factor is you playing well, and if you play poorly you get punished)
maybe ill get more bold eventually
that's my stance and will continue to be my stance
holy shit gtfo medals lets go @drifting citrus
i fuckign said it 2 months ago
medals/badges would be such a good feature for discord
i fucking knew it
yeah just an example

ACTUALLY
challenge is good and a level being accessible enough that you're playing for RNG is not great for competition or fun while playing (though one could levy that with infinite time every level becomes about RNG as player skill improves to such a degree)
so basically new speedrunners have no chance
(If the time goals are chosen reasonably then even moderate-bad RNG with good-exceptional play should be able to get low or close to low enough times)
/players
I agree that rng should be less for competition runs, not completely gone cuz that would limit levels quite a lot i imagine
/players
but im not too knowledgeable so i rely on you guys for that for now
very much so
There simply isnt many levels with no rng
shut up finish warden mapper for every level
so real
whatever
R6D1 comes the closest of any main level i guess
but it has a strat that most people would need to understand and pull off to have a chance
(Well if you pick good goal times that account for the effect of RNG then we don't have to be having this conversation)
Actually a thing yes
thats being done tho
at such a point you may start discerning the reason for competition, is it to compete or get a participation prize?
do newer players even have the skills or knowledge required in the first place to be able to play to the level required? in terms of borth the mechanical skill, the learned behaviours of minimising time (scan optimisation, looting optimisation, the small things), and what of the external stuff such as reading logs/using wardenmapper/seedindexeroverlay?
I did push out multiple options i had thought of for a reason
im just now finding out about this competition
Ayo lurker
thats why there are time goals so less experienced people have a chance to earn something
Because it is not official and is still getting worked out before it is made a thing
understood i was told different
i dont think the competition to win a role needs to be so elitist, its probably ok to not require high skill
ill be keeping an eye out then
no
Yea its a shocker
Fun exists
Fuck

There'll be a discord announcement when(if) it is made official đ
literally
there is an announcement about it
Bro why are my discord notifications so ass
which brings me to my next question
Scammers messed me up man
skill issue on my part for not checking announcements
disqualified
honestly its my bad i shoulda given more heads up to mods about this lol
+10s penalty to your time
i figured it was lowkey enough that it wasnt needed
imma be honest: i do think an @ everyone would be deserved here
yeah?
yea why not
im not even gonna pretend actually
Better yet ping everyone individually
Two teams get sub 11, you're trying to be the third - what happens if i get a sub 11 run at 11:55am GMT and have to wait until 1pm GMT to submit it due to slow upload speed on the vod, while someone else gets a sub 11 run at 12:30pm GMT, it uploads in 10 minutes and they submit it before I do
Which team gets the point? The ones who were first to the goal or the ones who were first to the google form?
This sounds scary
people who complain about @ everyone s can seethe and cope to getting one red letter
Wdym submit
you can send the screenshot 
also logs
Also logs exist
tell time
send which screenshot where
This discord
media, like every other world record
and also logs work too
I feel like soy isnt legally blind
we gotta check that
@sullen silo right?
its already been changed from first 3 anyways no?
I think so yea
yeah
Now the question is whether tru will ever get discord notifs again
im getting too many pings my focus is being split
just not reflected in the discord announcement
sent you a dm
lurker admin??????
in local time zone, what do you make of that when something reads 19:55 but is GMT+8 and another run reads 14:55 and is GMT-8
The GMT+8 came first but it reads differently
pls use gtfo-media for its intended purpose only, double kills with melee
???
how do you interpret it without knowing the timezone of whoever submits
ask
give me perms to @ everyone, ill do it and accept that ill never get the bbc rank ever
this shit is not going to be this complicated
get a new bit
just post your endscreen screenshot in media when you get it
fun fact: logs are not your local timezone
very difficult endeavour
fun fact: if they were you would doxx yourself by posting logs
huge
at least country/region
doxx myself how?
you couldn't tell apart if I was living in Birmingham or the Algarve in Portugal
oh no they gonna see i live in yucatan
except any country that does summer time where u can get doxxed by the timeframe. Or any country that has a non standard integer difference to UTC
honestly thats a good point
and tbh i dont have a good solution

for that or the issue of timezones
there isnt a way to really make it fair for everyone to have time to do it
Its a non issue as described by tgb
That + screenshot post in media
Tho the easiest solution is anyone who gets sub 11 gets special role.
fixes it outright
Even if i delay the competition for a week or so, so people know in advance to get ready but even then people would have to ruin sleep schedules
yeah that came to mind
also gives incentive to not play 24/7
but i wasnt sure if people would be mad that it suddenly isnt as exclusive
I dont think people would mind
Its mostly for fun and likely you wont see many get sub 11
It was a See a bunch of unread notifications for this server > Check notification list > @ moderators > scammer sigh > mark as unread moment
sub 11 is not an easy run to get
i mean
Oh shit right
WR is 11 20 rn tbf
Ya
?
sub 11 is doable
but not free
exactly
It is the correct thing to do, dw
And if like 20 people decide to omega grind
let em have the reward (imo)
But my 50$ :(
me when i don't get ven at last class 6
Imma be honest, having 12 or 20 people with special role wouldn't be an issue
Its only 1.3 sec
in quad?
yes
i guess i forgot to say earlier, i feel it unfair to call this channel a hotbed for scamming when the bots/compromised accounts post in... every channel that exists in this server
aight not too bad then
Keep in mind u gotta leave early for door
Yea
That was already brought up
I think its mostly the activity + actual server stuff
Okay the descriptions in the announcement and the form have been updated to say anyone getting a run under 11 mintes will be awarded the special role
Based
HUGE
Best admin
I mean
No issue with soy but
Like they waste my time before work because they donât play
GTFO
@sullen silo time to torment you more
so there's no distinction made as to how many players should be in the lobby, do you want to impose a limit on that or let there be an option to try for the sub 16 as duo? (trio runs are boring we don't mention trio)
uhh
is there any advantage from running less people compared to just having 4?
if not then i see no issue with it
the advantage is that you don't have to put up with as many people (if someone is insufferable) or find as many players
but the run is significantly harder and there is absolutely 0 gameplay advantage
yeah thats fine then
sick
based
I am so sad chill
why
With the r3d1 speed trials here's a tool to help with dealing with logs: https://github.com/Tgb03/Logger/releases/tag/1.1.1 . With this there is no need to deal with looking for logs for finding key. I am unfortunately unable to make a tutorial rn, but i will make one when i get home from uni.
If anyone has any questions, simply DM me, I will do my best to explain as soon as I can

https://youtu.be/rvlCpxyXw_k tutorial is made
has anyone managed a good run yet or is it just chill/ray/hani/beth as far as anyone knows
if anyone has they havent submitted it
We havenât started running yet
smh no commitment
should have started running as soon as the competition started
/s
Give me a trip to Sweden and I would have already put 12 hours into this 
If a trip to Sweden was on the table I wouldâve already cheated my own run
I mean, I would have practiced for hours to get a good run
Jokes on you ive sent a 266 petabyte zip bomb to ur dms
im sorry im sick and have work 
Congrats to @rustic bridge @placid marten @radiant hemlock and @drifting citrus for being the first to submit a sub 16 minute run
now i actually have to make the role for them smh
LESGOOOO
zzzz
the 11:23 run in the corner
okay have no fun

ya
this one? #gtfo-media message
mhm
not submitted. deleted banned from speedrunning
we probs only submit when we get sub 11
I have a feeling they want to submit only a sub 11
ye
LETS GOOOOO 
I wasnât recording that run anyway I donât think
