SM has own Speedrun page

[djhubertus]

Hi, we all know that obstacle is the most popular gamemode in SM. A lot of people are fighting to get the best time on map. Some dedicated servers are using local records to store leaderboards for maps but what if server will gone?

That's why there is speedrun.com. It's a website where people are sharing their runs in various games. I saw that TM series are on website so why not add SM? It's a good spot to promote the game.

If You want to take a look, here are links to TM2 and SM

Shootmania doesn't have campaign so I added Obstacle TP and Platform TP as full categories, but, more possibilities can come if we will add some hard and challenging levels to individual section.

Feel free to say, what you think and how we can invite people to make some speedruns

Oki but You are supporting single levels, most of leaderboards on speedrun.com are a campaigns or set of levels.

The replays have to be sent to someone that check the time of the run, then this person selects the 3 fastests runs for each map. And if someone does better then one of the video is replaced by the other !

To submit a run you need a live video without cuts, speed manipulations etc. So "jury" is not needed to check frame by frame, is run is legal.

then this person selects the 3 fastests runs for each map. And if someone does better then one of the video is replaced by the other !

I don't understand what are you talking about. It's not coop-segmented speedrun. We are talking about single-segmented runs without breaks.

only single segment accepted ?

If 5 people submit their runs, then you keep only the 3 first runs for example.
