      Well, that's because half the time glitches are found to lower times or more official calculations (such as Zelda with drop tables). Also, the rest of the time is them thinking their run is the best possible. It's called ego, ignorance, and lack of foresight. Welcome to the human race. ;)

    • @Ballaam
      @Ballaam Před 6 lety +8

      The community (Consisting of both VC & N64 runners) has decided several times to not split the leaderboards. Whilst no lag does give VC a severe advantage, and makes a meh VC time look better than a great N64 time, we still class it as the same game.
      There is also a filter function on SRC anyway which allows you to see the N64 leaderboard or the VC leaderboard for a certain category. Most N64 runners look at that for goals and where they are.

    • @tails512
