These new records are likely to be unbeatable once traffic returns to normal. I wonder whether that'll cause the demise of the Cannonball Run?
That said, in computer speed runs, it's generally said that once someone says a run is unbeatable, it'll be beaten...
- mydongle 6y agoWhy don't they just invalidate runs that happen during something like a pandemic?
- denlekke 6y agothere's no one to invalidate them ! even validating them is a game of trust as it's illegal and most of the only other people interested are competitors who are reluctant to be beaten. the vinwiki guy has made himself out to be an arbiter because he gets more views on his youtube channel and app subscribers from it
