Why can't we just put a checkbox on the upload page saying, "I confirm that I have replayed my inp and that it plays back to the advertised score and without requiring an nvram."?
If you don't tick the checkbox you can't upload your inp, simple.
true but even if people don't check it do you think they're going to stop what they're doing recheck it and THEN click the box? kind of like reading a license from microsoft...
Sure they might not but it's better than nothing and there will be PROOF that they didn't check their inp if it doesn't play back and they will lose credibility at MARP .
You could even go to the extent of sending an email to remind them what the checkbox is for. Or is this just another unenforced rule. I'm just saying it wouldn't hurt to have it . More importantly, more inps will play back first time so that confirmers can do their job.
Wonder how many are willing to go the extra distance finding "win85" mame for that recording. It takes Gerry 5 minutes to record a game, and for us it takes quite a lot more to try playback that, times 3, !@£€!!{&[ö]$!!
Things would be different with a class-act, or if he had tried playback for himself. Blah!
