Not Rayman-related but I enjoyed this video "The Absurdity of Speedrunning":

Very interesting! The myth of Sisyphus is one of my favourites! It's nice to see that Cosmic-Ray-induced bitflip in there. But what's this about elevated temperatures increasing the conductivity of copper? I thought metals became more resistive at high temperature :mefiant:

Very interesting indeed! Though as rightly pointed out at the end of the video, this absurdity extends to a lot of aspects of life. :mrgreen:

Sounds like something got lost in translation here!

I think Speedbot might be broken, it hasn't posting any new runs for the past month.

Sometimes it’s just a bit slow, but I do think a moderator should check it out

Yeah I noticed that a couple weeks ago and checked some of the leaderboards to see if anything new had been submitted, but I couldn't find anything so I thought it was normal. I will investigate again!

Yes, that's the goal, I just haven't been able to find the time to design a challenge yet. :oops2:

I think it should be a Rayman Legends challenge!

It's around the time where Speedray would normally be happening, is there any estimate for when it'll be ready? Just curious, these events are always my favorite moments in RPC!

No estimate for now, but expect it to take place later this year, for reasons which will be obvious in due time. :winkgrin:
