    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

    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.

    • @Ayoryn
      @Ayoryn Рік тому

      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.

  • @PinkAndTheKeytarCat
    @PinkAndTheKeytarCat 2 роки тому +4

    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.

    Funny thing is, that moderators don't have to verify these runs since the src rules state you are allowed to deny a run for simply not having the intent of a Speedrun. I think it is funny but can also be a pain for moderation, but it is up to the mods how they want to go about it

    @tippa7328 2 роки тому

    tbh if slowruns had rules like no afk, must be attempting speedrun strats (just non optimally), etc., I feel like slowruns could be an actually viable strat as there's then even a theoretical softcap on time since people wouldnt be allowed to sleep and thus their health wouldnt likely be in jeopardy.
    I mean, there's already 10+ hr runs like GTA V 100%, I dont see how this would be much different.

    @abderianagelast7868 Рік тому

    Frankly, a run where most of the time is spent AFK or building extraneous structures is boring. I want to see a slowrun where every second spent in game is trying to beat the game (unless it gets so long that sleep breaks are needed), it's just that your methods are slow. So single gold trades at a time, spawn manipulating the blazes to only fight one at a time with your fists, getting unlucky and getting terrible drops, etc.

  • @Vaeta
    @Vaeta 2 роки тому

    Slow runs are just people casually playing the game and going afk whenever they like to get the clock up. Not that I'm at all part of the speedrun community, but I feel these "slow runs" are just mocking people who work hard to master the game they are playing. I don't think all people who play casually and clock a higher time should be discounted, but intentionally going afk for hours just to get the "slowest run" should not be counted. But then there is the gray area of "How do you determine what intentional afk is?" That is where I don't have a solution or suggestion. I just feel that last run, at least half of the run was the person afk. That's not speed running, that's occasionally playing Minecraft for an hour or two and then leaving the game open while you do other things. It's not playing the game.
    Sorry if this seems rude or I have any misinformation, this is simply my opinion and am open to other's ideas.

    My thoughts is slowruns is basically just an alternate meme% kind of category, I think it's fine as long as the people doing them take care of themselves.

    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.

  • @dymaxion3988

    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.

  • @mr_h831
    @mr_h831 2 роки тому +19

    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.
