Hello! Welcome to the very first Level of the Week Speedrunning Contest!
You've heard of Level of the Week (I'd hope so, at least), but have you heard of a contest for speedrunning through winning submissions of Level of the Week? Doubt it! That's because this is the very first contest of its kind (for Level of the Week)! Seeing as how it's the Holidays, it's time to give back to the community by giving everyone a good source of entertainment, and to reward those who give it their best efforts. The basis of this contest revolves around getting the best time on Level of the Week winning submissions, or getting the best time of playing through consecutive groups of submissions. Think you got what it takes? Keep on reading...
How It Works
This contest revolves around two different categories: best single times and best section times. For both categories, you are required to play through levels in the Tournament Server, and to reply to this thread with the following information:
- Your PR2 username:
- What category you're participating in (single time or section time):
- What level or section are you submitting for:
- What time did you get:
- Timestamp of when your playthrough of the level occurred (for those going for section times):
- Link to video recording / livestream of your playthrough:
For single times: Your objective is to get the best time on any of the 68 levels you can play through for this contest. Make sure to do your attempts in the Tournament Server. If your submitted times are done in any other server your time will be disqualified. The time that appears in-game at the end of a level is the time that you must submit in this thread. If you get the best time for any levels you submitted your times for by January 15th, 2023 at 12 AM CT you win!
For section times: Your objective is to get the best time by playing through one of the two available sections of levels. The time it takes between each level to start your next level is included in your ending time. Any editing of the submitted video recording to speed up transitions between each level will be disqualified. The times you achieve for each individual level during this run can be submitted separately, but a time stamp must be made when you submit the video recording. If you get the best time for either sections of levels you submitted your times for by January 15th, 2023 at 12 AM CT you win!
The list of levels and their sections will be listed in the post below this post. The best times will be updated from time to time up until the contest ends, which is January 15th, 2023 at 12 AM CT.
Rewards
A competition without rewards!? Sacrilege! Anyway, there are quite a few rewards for those that end up getting the best time for any individual level or getting the best time for any of the 2 sections.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The account that created the winning submission will be sent a Private Message (PM) on Platform Racing 2 asking what prize they would like, and on what account they would like it on. If the owner of the account does not respond within 3 days I will be putting the appropriate prize for the amount of times they have won on the account that won. The account listed under "Your PR2 Username" in your submission post will obtain the prize for submitting a winning submission.
- If you get the best time for any of the 2 sections, you will be rewarded with the elusive Artifact Hat! You can also exchange this reward for 34 million EXP if you already have the Artifact Hat or would rather have the EXP.
(Note: You can give this reward to a different account if you'd like!)
There will be a potential total of 2 Artifact Hats being rewarded in this competition, or a potential 68 million EXP for getting the best time in just sections alone!
What the Artifact Hat looks like:
- If you submit a section playthrough, you will be rewarded with 2,500,000 EXP! This can stack, meaning if you submit a playthrough of both sections, you can earn a total of 5 million EXP!
(Note: This can only be rewarded once, and you can only earn this reward by submitting playthroughs via this thread or Discord. Simply making a video playthrough of them and then not submitting it here will not earn you the EXP reward.)
- If you get the best time on any individual level, you will be rewarded with 1,000,000 EXP! This can stack, meaning you can win this reward multiple times, so you can potentially win up to a total of 67 million EXP!!!
(Note: You can give this reward to a different account for each individual win, meaning if you get the best time in multiple levels, you can give 1,000,000 EXP to several different accounts of your choice.)
- If you manage to get the best time in both sections, there could maybe be an additional reward for anyone insane enough to get the best time in both sections. Guess we will see.
Rules
- You must submit your times using the format listed in the How It Works section of this post.
- All playthroughs of each level must be played in the Tournament Server. Submitting a time that takes place in any other server will result in a disqualification.
- For each submission you'd like to make, please make a new post in this thread detailing what your submission is.
- Any edits to video recordings mid-way through its playthrough will result in that submission being disqualified.
- Glitches are allowed.
- No cowboy hats allowed in Single Playthroughs unless the level has a 100% chance of Super Flying Cowboy mode. If you get Super Flying Cowboy mode activated while in a Section Playthrough on a level that has less than a 100% of it activating, restart the race and the time it took to load into the first attempt won't count.
- Altering your own winning submission (if you've won one of the weeks) so that you get a clearly better time than other users will result in a disqualification.
- In the off chance that a level becomes unplayable, whether through the winning submission becoming unpublished or things are done to the level to prevent a finish, a new level will be cycled in to help the contest continue. Previous section times will remain intact.
- For single playthroughs, the time that appears in-game at the end of the level is the time that you must submit.
- For section playthroughs, the time between each level are included with your time.
- For section playthroughs, if you want a time you achieved on an individual level from your section playthrough submitted , you must make a separate post with what individual time you'd like to submit along with the time stamp in the video recording where it takes place.
- Times must be submitted by January 15th, 2023 at 12 AM CT.

FYI, I'm aware of Deaths level not being published anymore. If we can't get it back I'll be editing the playable level list

I'm making the executive decision to get rid of Death's level from Section 1 due to it still not being available. So there will only be 33 levels in Section 1 and 34 levels in Section 2.
