Welcome to Speedrunner of the Week, a contest tailored for the fastest players in Platform Racing 2! We have the racers, the fast racers, and those who are above them all: Speedrunners. Do you have what it takes to become a Speedrunner?

🔧 How does it work? 🔧
  • Each week a new level is given a target time and expert time for contestants to beat. If you complete the target time you get 1 point added onto your total score. If you are super speedy and also manage to complete the expert time you will gain 1 extra point, bringing your total to 2 just from beating the set times.

  • You can also gain points if you place in a podium spot against your competitors: if you set the fastest time that week you will gain 3 points, if you come in with the second fastest time you will get 2 points, and if you set the third fastest time you will get 1 extra point. Make note however, you will only be granted these podium points if you have beaten the target time.

  • Submissions will close on Sunday 12:00AM EDT. Be sure to convert this time into your own timezone if necessary to avoid any late submissions!
📔 Rules: 📔
  • Any runs that have been posted after the submission date will not be counted for that week. Please note that Sunday 12:00AM EDT is your deadline and not when I post the "submission's closed" comment on the thread.

  • You are allowed to submit as many runs as necessary; you are not just limited to one.

  • You are not allowed to use any form of hacks or TAS in your submitted run, doing so will get you banned from participating in any further SOTW events.

  • Any form of glitching which wasn't intended by the creator of the level will not be allowed. If you are unsure whether a glitch is allowed or not, feel free to ask me in a thread post or through Discord.

  • You are not allowed to involve multiple players in your speedrun. however, you are allowed to have someone spectate you for any assistance purposes such as recording runs.

  • In the event of a level with 'Super Flying Cowboy Mode' (SFCM): unless the level uses this mode as a hat remover or if the level specifically requires the use of SFCM, all runs that have this mode enabled must be reset. Any runs that have this mode enabled when it's prohibited will be voided.

  • You are only allowed to use up to 195 stat points (Rank 45).

  • You are not allowed to use any hats which may affect the time of the speedrun. Hats which you are allowed to use include: Exp Hat, Kong Hat, Party Hat, Jigg Hat, Thief Hat and the Jellyfish Hat.

  • You are allowed to get the stat advantages from any of the stat blocks around the level.

  • Regarding video submissions, only video submissions which have been posted on this thread will be allowed. I will not be accepting any downloadable files as submissions. Please make sure that in your video you are also showing your in-game stats, as well as a clear video on your ending time.

The main thread is generally where all the updates to the leaderboard and the scores of each player. Although I can understand it would be more practical to have it, it would mean that I'd have to spend that little extra time updating the leaderboard on the weekly thread as well as main thread and I don't think it's worth my time to do it just to increase the quality of life.

If other people support your idea and are desperate for something like this then it's definitely worth keeping in mind 👍

when you finish updating the table in the main thread you only give copy and then paste in the weekly thread.
It only takes about 40 seconds a week to do it.

Sorry I'm gonna have to void that run since it uses a head glitch during the vanish block section.

Planned to use my 1:06.50 from last sunday since recording was a mess tonight, but when I saw Master Raiden's run at 23h39...
I hate the arrow keys on the desktop I had to use but holy hell I can't believe I pulled a miraculous run within 10 minutes

If you're reading this, it means I have not made a cool signature yet and you should be proud of yourself.
