Title: GV ng and rBC3 ng world record history discussion
Post by Qazzy on 11/16/20 at 21:54:21

So, I thought there were probably a few more times on rBC3 No-SC before JimmyB’s 2:18.318. I thought it was strange that it took so long for someone to play that track in NO-SC and so I put the page in wayback machine, and here I found evidence that there were a few times that might’ve been records, one even dates back to early 2008.

I could only go back to 2016 though, so it only proves that there were at least SOME records before Jimmy’s, some players could have improved their times and some may not have player’s page profiles. So I need some people to help uncover the mystery of how many of these were records or not.

Here is what I found:

There were also two from 3rd May and 4th May.

I’m surprised this wasn’t noticed before.

There’s probably some obvious reason this is incorrect and I’m gonna feel really dum [smiley=kickbutt.gif]

I think it's just that we aren't that sure what the fastest ones were before Jimmy's since it wasn't kept track of what so ever.

I’m pretty sure Marco’s was a world record at least, considering how they’re only 2 months apart. I’ll try my best to find more proof but it’s hard and I could use some help finding these forgotten records.

Those 2008 times are SC. Inconsistent with the rest of their timesheets

We have a pretty good idea of the WR history for this and GV for some time before the starting dates on mkwrs. It's just that the categories had never been considered 'official' for a long time after the sc/glitches were discovered.
Not sure if Cole plans to change anything but I'd imagine times like these would be added if there was enough popular opinion for it.

I’m interested, do you have a link to a google docs or something that has the times on it?
