@@umanair2724 there are mods that can re-enable them in future versions.

But since the record boards use 1.16, I think there is a version of the mod that supports it.

I think slow running should have it's own category, but there should be some rules. 1 you cannot endanger yourself. You have to live your daily life whatever it happens to be, in despite of the run. 2 you cannot log off. It has to be a consecutive run. 3 you cannot pad with afk time. You have to stay active in the game. Maximum afk time per break should be 8-12 hours. 4 once submitted, you have to post time stamps in the description of when your afk times start. List them by number in consecutive order. (I.E "First afk time: 8:00:00 in. Second afk time, 15:00:00 hours in." Etc etc. It is possible that an end time may be required too, it depends on how much easier this actually makes it for mods to find the afk times.) This way, mods dont have to search for years for how long you've spent afk. This type of run would likely require you to keep a log book.

I had an experience like this once myself. It's gonna sound like shilling, and it kinda is. Not exactly a deliberate slow run, but definitely a *slow run.* The game Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords was a game I loved playing on my R4 on the DS, and when I found out it had a PC port I decided "fuck it, I'm making a category for this." And since categories do require a video, I decided to speedrun it, little more than a glorified quick playthrough as I grinded monsters, died, went up to take a piss, had some lunch, and rambled for 7 hours until I finally finished the first speedrun of Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords. In a few months someone took 3 hours off my time, and I laughed at how bad I am at the game.

I want to see a slowrun competition with more relaxed rules, so runners are allowed to save and come back later. The object would be to maximize in-game time spent before beating the ender dragon. By letting runners take breaks, it would discourage idling: because there is no theoretical limit on the top time, runners that idle will get bored and quit before those that don’t, leading to a tortoise & hare situation. It would basically be a competition to see who can have the most fun in a MC let’s play without beating the game. And verification would be as simple as showing the stats screen with the in-game timer at the beginning and end of each session.

I love the charm this man has when he treats his chat like equals genuinely so inviting not “viewers” who pay him it’s great

Your videos are one of the few videos i play when doing homework that are meant to serve as background noise but then end up catching my full attention

what about instead of speedrunning the most optimized seed, someone finds the least optimized seed to run. I think that'd turn out pretty nice.

I feel like it would be fun to go for specifically second place for a bunch of games. It'd be a lot more specific in terms of the time you needed. There should be a leaderboard for most second place speedruns

Don't worry Spiff this summer I'm going for the dreaded 200 hour long minecraft slowrun

It's one thing if a speed-run just takes a long time to complete due to it's nature (like Twilight Princess Low%), but we shouldn't be encouraging people to upload what are essentially full on let's plays to the leader-boards, as that defeats the whole "games done quick" spirit of speed-running in the first place.

Can't wait to see a video months down the road where Spiff has completed the 999 hour run. I will be waiting patiently until it happens.

Love to see more Minecraft content like this.

As far as slowrunning in other games goes, F-zero GX has a stage I would like to see some slowrun attempts on. Chapter 6. The objective of the chapter is to reach the end without dipping below a certain speed. The track layout is designed to make that difficult, with pedestrian vehicles to maneuver around, slim parts of the track, dirt sections that reduce speed unless you boost, and so on. What I would like to see, is a slowrun that tries to stay as close to the minimum speed as possible, while driving on the outside of turns and zigzagging across the track on straights to get the worst time possible. Funnily enough, doing a slowrun like this would actually be harder than getting the Max Speed speedrun, since in the speedrun you just need to maintain max speed, murder pedestrians for boost power, and take the best lines. The precise, constant button presses to keep speed low and inefficient, swerving lines would make the slowrun a nightmare, between getting as close to the walls as possible without touching them and avoiding the pedestrians that are in the way. The dirt section in the end could be particularly bad, since boost timing maintain the lowest speed while risking blowing up on the dirt is a notable risk.

Man did the minecraft no shower skip. What a legend, that’s a hard one to pull off

dedication and endurance can be seen as a skill in itself

Fun analysis video! Thanks for uploading!

imagine leaving your computer on for a month and a half, only for the power to cut out before you can beat the dragon and verify the run

As one of the Minecraft slowrun record holders I can say that slow running is just fun because you can be the best at being the worst.

These videos are the highlight of my week!

Finally! A speedrun category that I'll be good at!

In my opinion, the moderators of each game should come up with reasonable guidelines for how long a run can be before it gets automatically rejected due to being too long. I figure for most games, 16 hours is a reasonable upper limit unless the run happens to take longer than that normally. But that can be handled on a per-game basis, obviously. Something like whichever is longer between 16 hours and twice as long as the #1 run. That way, even if people are trying to finish the run within frames of the upper cutoff, it wouldn't represent a huge health risk.

I agree about the health risks, but the same can also be said about actually trying to get the fastest time in a game. Both can damage you health if done for too long.

...Was this inspired by that person's little brother in the Bad Poppy's Playtime Speedrun Submissions video comment section?

I'm just going to say that I think the best way to start a slow run is, "Hi, I've never run this game before, so let's start the timer and see how it goes." Timer starts. Player then begins downloading and installing the game.

That 999 slowrun is the most hyped thing about Minecraft rn, ngl

I always thought about this concept of having the slowest speed run but it never showed, cool to see people are doing it though.

I feel like the mods should keep allowing this, but make it against the rules to neglect your health, win-win

You've also gotta consider that the moderators need to watch the whole run in order to verify, and lets just say that if the lowest time is 100hrs then the moderator is gonna have a fun time.

Finally, something I could compete for

This is the kind of run that I could feasibly do. No stress from trying to take the best routes or botching skips that need high skill and lots of practice, just time and patience.

@@brentbottoms2876 I don’t know when do people dirtying laundry stop being really bad cleaners and get excluded from the cleaning clothes? =_=

I would love to propose to the spreedrun website mods to create a alternative website for slowruns, so they could keep them separate.

Ironically, I was watching this and went “okay, Spiff, what the _hells_ is happening here?” And wow, 100 hours-

I love these kinds of speedruns.

Does anyone else feel inspired after this video?

we never got to know the rating on the last run :(

I think the longest thing I'd try is a Baiten Kaitos run with the shampoo item. Or else you have something like the Desert Bus marathon. In both cases, they do other stuff in the downtimes. That's the only reasonable justification I could give for a slowrun. I've got to many books to read, movies to watch, and films to see to spend 999 hours on one run. :P

the issue with making a separate category for slowruns in the leaderboards is that eventually people are gonna be motivated to do the exact same thing slowrunners did originally and speedrun the slowrun category, negating the solution and bringing us back to square one

Slow speedruns are funny the first few times but the gimmick wears off real quick if you are the one having the verify the runs for a speed run leaderboard. I feel like once a category gets enough runs, some sort of limit for length is a good idea. Like if the average speed is 30 minuets, 1hr+ runs aren't allowed.

Honestly that would really kill the point cause then everyone would just play normally to get to the 1h point then just finish and be done and then we would have 40 speedruns all that are the same time. I get your point but i honestly think it's either needs to be allowed or not at all because limiting the time wouldn't really work.

@@faimynth6030 I suggested a max length to give an easy way to judge runs that can be clearly listed in the rules and isn't subjective at all. I figured that double the average run length is a good enough range to allow people actually serious about submitting runs to do so, while greatly reducing the amount of time spent on troll runs. Oh and personally I don't think multiple people trying to tie for last place is a problem. It's obviously not ideal, but it's not that different from people trying to get the longest run submitted, and at least those tied runs would be easier to verify.

I believe there's actually a getting over it speedrun category (I think it was in category extensions) where the actual goal was the slowest time, with rules and all (one of the rules was that at least half of the speedrun had to be the actual game so some people just watched movies for 12 hours and then played the game for 12 more)

I think a great way to do Slow Runs is like this: You cannot deliberately AFK or purposefully do things in the slowest possible manner (for example using just fist in Minecraft if you have the option to make a wooden tools or walking one tiny button press at a time). However, you are allowed to do whatever you want like build a house, mine with wooden tools, watch TV screens, touch literally everything in sight, etc... Whatever keeps you active in the game until you complete it. You would be allowed 1-2 breaks depending on your time ofc but you can't just go to sleep for 8 hours while leaving your game, timer and stream running.

I actually think the opposite. I think that you shouldn't be allowed to do anything not related to progressing the game, so that it's less of a lets play and more like a speed run. In speed runs you try to make every action you take faster to cut down on time. I think that slow runs should be trying to make every action you take slower to add more time (but just like speed runs, you're trying to defeat the ender dragon the whole time). I do think there should be limits (like the button press walk as you said), but I think you can get very creative with this.

I don't feel comfortable with not having more rules around these slow runs. What's it going to take for rules to change? Someone ending up in the hospital, or worse? I would say just don't encourage this type of run in the first place. It's funny once or twice if someone is just submitting a slow run because they were bad at the game but it's only maybe a few hours long, but 21+ hours is bad. If you're GOING to accept these runs be more strict, don't allow runs where they're afk for seemingly no reason in regards to the game. Visually don't allow all the stupid gigs that obscure all of the "game play". They should always be trying to progress, even if in a roundabout way. Of course they should be allowed breaks, but that shouldn't be a majority of the run. In the end my Personal Opinion is don't allow these slowruns on the leaderboards. They aren't contributing anything to the community as a whole and have the potential to be damaging to the player.

It's not your job, or the community's job, to worry about someone else's health. That's between them and their physician. Nevermind that one could say exactly the same of speedrunning, with all the time some people spend just grinding at refining their performance of a strat. The only difference is a mod doesn't have to see all of that.
