    But then every time we try to run it again won't we have to create another account? Or can we delete our local save?

    Well if you want to speedrun it again on the same account you can just look at the time you got from the session leaderboard and write it down right after you play the track.

    You sir, are a madman.

    Proof wise, I think the only thing we can allow is a video of the full run uninterrupted. I understand that's hard for some though. I'm looking into buying a capture card for that reason. You could still submit a time if you don't have proof but it would go on the boards as unverified and wouldn't count until a better run is achieved and taped.

    So:

    - Start timer at commencement of racing on Ridge Tracer and stop at crossing the finish line on Inferno 3.
    - License tests not included.
    - Skill games not included.
    - All tracks must be done in order.
    - All tracks completed in one sitting.
    - Only VERIFIED times added to the leader board. However people can still submit unverified runs, but they won't be added to the main board.

    I think these are some good rules to get this started. I don't want this to turn into some 100% official/SDA approved/technicality/pissing contest thing because after all it is for a bit fun and spirited competition.

    Anything else we should include/discuss?
    I like this, sounds good.

    It's easiest just to do GetWhatYouGive's idea. It's the way I'd rather do it anyways. Don't want to have to use the rattler and piranha.

    just banged out a run ----> 58:22.75
    sooooooo much more time left in it tho

    vid: http://www.twitch.tv/chaeron/c/3917173

    I don't think faults should be a factor, just time

    also I have decided to call the run Trials All Tracks (aka TATs - props to MikeB ) that way when someone gets a good run we can say "hey nice TATs!"

    Ok, well if everyone is on board with that I'll update the OP with all the info and stuff when I get home tonight. I don't have the ability to record yet (being broke all the time sucks) but I suppose I could use my iPhone camera somehow, purely for verifying. Not ideal I know but for now It'll have to do.

    I agree with the faults thing now actually. It should just be purely about how fast you can get through all the tracks.

    I attempted doing this on Gold Edition today and and I got to Gigatrack then Gold Edition crashed on me. It always finds a way to let you down. Not going to try it again on GE anyways, because it lagged pretty much the whole time for me.

    I'm going to be running this tomorrow on my day off. Hopefully get a sub 1 hour time Not sure I can record it but. I guess It'll be unverified for now.

    I just gave this a go today and got 1:00:19.582.
    Wasn't a great run, made like 25+ faults but I will definitely try to improve it another time
