Leaderboard Disputes / Re: ATTN: Sonicspeedruner, Nicur, and R3FR4G

You know what? Screw it.

There is recent history on this forum of you going after runners who have a faster time of you, accusing them of cheating so maybe, just maybe, you can weasel your way into getting world record on something. There is no coincidence you specifically went after the three runners who were above you in the standings. There is another thread of you doing the exact same thing to RingRush.

Your accusations were completely baseless for every single person and cherry-picked so that you could get ahead. You even completely failed to realize that SADX had a PC release, in fact multiple PC releases. Perhaps you should learn a little bit more about the game before accusing people of cheating for no reason. As in, something as basic as knowing the existing versions of the game.

The only reason more came out about how these times were done is because people decided to be nice, but I'm tired of trying. Consider yourself lucky that you actually found out anything.

You don't even have video proof of your own time, in an age where cell phones are plentiful and can record video and any toaster of a PC made in the last 15 years can run SADX and record. So I have no idea whether you even got your time or not, and for your standards that's enough to constitute cheating.

Furthermore, you recently created an account to dodge a ban on your OPs account, asking for the regular account to be unbanned. This is generally against this site's rules. I am pointing this out because you are clearly privy to breaking rules yourself.

If you actually want a world record, get a better time and stop doing this bullshit.

Weighing in on this being an 8-year speedrunner of SADX. You got a few things wrong in the OP.

Sonicspeedrunner plays on gamecube and records with a cell phone or camera as far as I know, the crop may have been done in editing. I do not think cropping or audio cut outs automatically constitute cheating.

Niczur and Refrag both play on PC Disk and not an emulator. Emulated play is extremely easy to tell as it looks like the Gamecube version. The PC Disk version has many notable visual differences to the Gamecube version.

As for Refrags blinking health bar, I have not encountered that on the PC Disk version. It is a pretty janky programmed game though and I wouldn't be surprised if that was a result of something in the vanilla game. It is designed for DirectX 7 (so early WinXP era?) and is highly likely being ran on Win10 for both competitors. The OS the game was designed for is fundamentally different than the one that users are currently on. However this is speculation and does not definitively explain this. With the PC Disk version you may have to take into account the graphics card, driver version, etc.

I feel that it is up to the runners to weigh in but I highly doubt they will turn their attention to this as they have little to no incentive to do so. I do not think the original allegation is enough grounds for further scrutiny, though.

What's up TSC

I've done some work on SADX here but that's about it so far. I have a bunch of other Sonic games but whether I will play them or not is a different story haha
