Here are the February 2013 Castlevania Speed Run Competition winners.


1st.
ByePass :
TIME: 00:25:20


There were a few submissions but only ByePass's counted since he was the only one to submit a video.

Congrats ByePass for getting it done video and all. Still impressed with ruanito and Dragoon26's times as this game is quite the difficult one.

Dragoon26 : I don't see it as a slight at all, but bringing up the video requirement does catch my attention. I wasn't aware that I had to add the link to the video to the thread as well and haven't done so. But regardless of whether I knew about it or not I only fulfilled half the requirements and am no more entitled to winning as anyone else who done half the requirements.

I understand that you're complaining, and if I were in your shoes would probably do the same thing as well. Since I only did half of the requirements and got counted I would either like to see the others who have posted the video link on the thread counted, or for mine to not count at all.

Dragoon26 : Typically, in these competitions, the rules USED to be that you had to post the screenshot or video to the thread. But the thing is, the important thing is to have it submitted to the game's page, not so much the thread. You got to remember that David is already busy, so he typically copy/pastes the rules because it is a lot faster. Same applies to when he finds the winner. Instead of searching through all the posts to find people's video submissions, it is a lot easier to look at the game's page. You happened to not submit your video to the one that is more important. Since you wouldn't have gotten first place anyway, so it isn't like it effects your high score hall of fame status or anything. However, I find if kind of funny how you said that you see that byebass usually dominates these competitions. Looking at the history, I see he has only one a total of 2 of these. Not even remotely close to dominating. Look at the hall of fame thread David has for that

rcarter2 :   If that's what the rules used to be that's all fine and well. But I have been on here since early February so not only was I unaware of that, but it honestly means nothing to me. But thank you for the information.

Also I made it known that it won't let me put up the video on the game page. I made a new video for Tetris just to try again and that won't let me either. So I know it was the "less important" part of the rules that I submitted the video to,  but it is still proof. 

Also his video is 25:20, mine is 23:53 ...

Lastly I can't remember what I was looking at but I saw byepass had some nice scores/times. Just saying he's a good competitor/player. That's all.

Dragoon26 : I can try to help you out with the youtube thing. What exactly are you doing when you try. Walk me through what you do step by step and I try to pinpoint your problem.
