As of December 4, 2006, new runs in the topic are in bold.

DON'T TELL ANYONE YOU'RE A VERIFIER UNTIL THE RUN IS POSTED!

Just because a run has enough verifiers doesn't mean it has too many.


If you verify, you may withhold your comments from being posted, just tell me in your post.

This topic is here to list all runs that need verifiers. A verifier needs to be someone who has played, completed, and knows enough about a game to determine whether the gameplay in a run is good or not.

So what does a verifier do? Here's a list:

1) Watch an entire run.
2) Make sure the video and audio quality is fine, such as no audio sync problems or missing portions.
3) Make sure the player isn't cheating.
4) Check for consistency between saves. For example, if one segment ends with 5 bullets and the next starts with 7.
5) Tell me if they're impressed with the run, or if the run is below SDA standards.
6) Help me with timing start/end points, if the game doesn't have a timer.
  
You can use this topic to see what runs are coming, as I don't list games on the queue page. Once verifiers have been found for a run, the run will be removed from the list, but that doesn't mean the run is going up immediately. The number in the topic title is the number of runs listed in the topic currently, not the number of runs in the queue.
  
Verifiers should either be someone who has been around for a while, or someone very knowledgeable in a game.  Guests and people known for flaming and spamming the forums can't be verifiers. If you've completed any of the games listed below and want to help me out, please send me a PM. This topic is locked and stickied to keep it at the top and to prevent it from becoming clogged with replies. I will edit the list whenever necessary. Note that not every run appears here: a couple of runs get enough verifiers from the IRC channel.

The following list has runs that people want to submit. As of May 19, 2006, I'm listing games here to find verifiers before letting runners actually submit the run. Once I have found at least three verifiers (or two if the run has been up for a while) I'll let the runner submit. However, even when enough verifiers are found, the runs will stay listed here until they're actually available for verifying, or if I get 6+ verifiers.

Again, if you can verify, send me a PM. I typically don't respond until a run is available for verification.

If I am slow to respond, it's probably taking forever to find verifiers. If you offered to verify a run and wonder why it's still here, it's because I look for 2-3 verifiers. The bigger this list gets, the longer it takes for me to organize responses, get runs processed, and get them to verifiers, so please don't message me constantly if your run is taking a while to get posted.
