In mass effect 2, when you start the game, you walk down a hallway for 30 seconds and then there's a 10 minute unskippable cutscene, and then the game starts for real. Runners have agreed to start the game from a loaded save after the cutscene, effectively choosing to not play a part of the game becuase it isn't fun or interesting. They've invented a new game to run that is mass effect 2 but slightly altered. I see bioshock infinite in a similar vein. There's bioshock infinite, a garbage game that is no fun, and then there's bioshock infinite prime, a cool game for chill people. Nobody is stopping you from running the bad game. The times aren't tracked for it because nobody actually wants to play it.

I should be able to have a leaderboard for any game, not just "real" "speed" games. Lots of people are upset that they allow flash games and romhacks. That's very odd to me.

Most speedrun.com moderators are good nice people and it's not like the doom guys are actually powertripping jerks. They just obey the convetional wisdom on what makes a speedrun.com leaderboard. "It's a meme category" could also mean "nobody has actually run this in earnest yet" In general, people want you to be good at the game and teach you everything they've learned. It's not about winning. It's about discovering the best speedrun. It's hidden inside the game and we all have to work together to get it out. Plus, people dedicate a ton of time to studying the game and they get excited when they have someone who is intered in learning. Even if they're hyper competitive and are all about havimg the WR, the record means more the more people who are competing at their level.

I know not agreeing with you makes you a Nazi(a defunct political party, which no one is a part of, but you can feel good that your 'fighting' Nazis). I guess it would be too much to ask you to tone it down, or make a separate thread. (GDQ drama thread, GDQ community thread). Listen I just have a different opinion about whether we should round up all the gays and put them in camps. It's not reasonable that you should exclude me from your video game party.

You can also just play the game fast and not record it. Back in the day, everyone had sd consoles and a vcr, so capture was no problem. You'd just mail the tapes in to sda.
