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?

• 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!
  

• 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.

Copying the description cause I'm lazy, eh



A collection of some of the music I made throughout the last year.

When it comes to composing, I tend to start and complete a piece in only one sitting, with very few exceptions. About a year ago I started to write music without waiting months between each session. This EP contains most of the stuff I felt decent about.

Hopefully this serves as a good comparison for next year, I want to come up with another one of these and perhaps learn how to mix a bit.

Hope you like it !

With the (not so) recent addition of levels where you can only have a certain hat, what if there were levels that gave you a certain hat for the race? Like unto the certain hat levels, it would be something that would be toggle-able and would only happen if someone wanted to change it. I am aware of SFCM, but that is only with the cowboy hat. Like for instance, a sim race could have the X.P. hat added in so that each person who clicked on the level would be given the X.P. hat for the race. Also, like the crown. Some people can't get f@h (like me), and cannot get crown or cowboy, and this would be an extension of SFCM for those people. It would kinda be like an extension of SFCM for each hat. It would also give new players the chance to race with others on the same levels that they would otherwise not be able to do. This could also give new players the chance to do levels like top, prop, and Santa w/out actually beating the golden compass and relying on luck. I'm not sure about any of the coding or whatnot, but I think this would be a good addition to the game. Then again, I haven't been able to play for 2 months, so I haven't been able to see the new updates in action. Thanks for taking the chance to look at this.

In the spirit of making trapping more accessible for my fellow Pr2 players, I hereby present my thoroughly researched and carefully curated Beginner-Friendly Trap Maps Showcase:
(Google Doc-- cba to reformat into a JV post)

When a hat start block is placed (max 1 per player) that player's hat will spawn at that location and be removed from the player
This would be good for races where at the end the winner gets all hats (exp) or for war type levels without the need for a hat remover
