Hello,

I've recently messaged Pablo Acevedo, a talented SM64 runner of his day who had a 120 Star WR in 2005-06 that beat Spiderman's 2:57 run by several minutes. What he told me that I didn't know is that he actually submitted his run to this website and got rejected because it wasn't a very impressive improvement. He also said that he wasn't the first one to submit a 120 Star WR and get rejected with it at the time for the same reason.

In consequence, what I'd be very interested to know is if SDA has ever internally kept track of such rejected submissions, and if there is any chance that information about these runs could be retrieved in any capacity.

Thanks in advance!

someone who knows more than me may want to weigh in. all i can tell you is we moved to an automated system for processing submissions only in 2012 and the oldest rejected runs i can see are from that time. from what i remember of the previous systems we used, nothing was saved about rejected runs. it was just text files with one run per line or tools that edited those files. when a run was either rejected or accepted/posted, its line in the file was deleted.

as an aside, there is this in the kb but it doesn't list rejected runs.

sorry i can't be of more help.
