AAA++++!!! WOULD BUY AGAIN!!!

As some of you may know I’m looking for some competition on speedruns as my new DML troll is really raping pretty much every speedrun leaderboard he touches. To that effect I was looking to have a little contest, but I’m not giving BP for cheating. So anyway, see topic?

Unfortunately, there is no perfect test for a scripted speedrun.

Having said that, I don’t think it’s very easy to create such a script without leaving a trail of bad requests that we could look up in your history.

Sneakily vicious and filled with virtuous pit bulls.

So you could detect someone creating the script, but not using it.

Calculating some minimum times for speedruns/individual threads/attacks based on optimal conditions, and ensuring responses to not fall under these timings, would be one way to detect a script.
