Talk:Speedrun

Two little thoughts for this entry.

We say that the descriptions of COMPET-N categories are "taken from the Compet-N FAQ", but today I revised them to make them (I hope) slightly clearer. So are they still "taken from the Compet-N FAQ"? Did somebody, for example, go to the trouble of getting permission from that site to repost them as long as they weren't altered? (And if so, for future reference, where on earth did it say that in the existing article?)

That entire huge list of footnotes from the COMPET-N "rules" page should not be included here, even if our policies allow it. If someone actually needs to know that stuff, then they're seriously thinking about submitting something, and if they're seriously thinking about submitting something, they should be reading their favorite speedrunning site for rules clarifications, not this one.

 * Okay, I indirectly changed my mind about the second one. :> The tables in the articles for the individual categories make less sense without the information in the footnotes. Ryan W 18:37, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC).

Wow, too much cherry Coke that day. Let's start over.

Does anyone know how to contact Adam Hegyi? The address on the COMPET-N page bounces, and I've wondered if the rule descriptions on this page are so close to the originals as to be a copyright violation without his permission. Ryan W 23:02, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
