I know there was a delay with the adjudication of gaming records last week, but I'm afraid there will also be a delay this week of ALL adjudications.
This is because our New York office (where our adjudicator for Challenegrs works from) is currently closed due to the hurricane affecting the area. I'm sure you all understand the reason behind this and that it is totally out of our control, and if any of you are located on the East coast of the USA, stay safe!
Sorry to see that even in this new record "most dominoes stacked into a tower with chopsticks in 30 seconds" you didn't insert into the guidelines the use of a clock to check video aren't accelerated! This discussion never ends as this is your fault after all of the claims about it !!!
Just want to make sure that you didn't misunderstand anything cause I saw you post this in the video page as well.
The video that you posted this message to has nothing to do with the accelerating thing at all. That record is for 30 secs but Silvo did 1 min. And that's just that. And Dan already said that it is not necessary to do it but would help the adjudicator if do so.
A question in my mind right now is what can Dan actually do to this matter? delete ID? won't they create a new one? block IP? won't they use some kind of unblockproxy site?
For starters I've deleted all these accounts and everything they've done on the site, please continue to report such accounts to me when you see them (via PM is best).
If the problem gets worse, we'll look at what we can do to prevent such spam accounts.
Watched the show because the livestream didn't work. i saw that oli licked his lips, and thought, oh no will liz giving him now his guinnes world record?. He was very fast and totally well but he's at the very end really licked the lips, too bad, I would have granted him.
Hey!
Why is that not record?! It is a game like "Fruit Ninja"!:

Not all games suggested are approved as new record categories - especially if they are deemed too similar to an existing challenge.
Hey Challengers!

Am in thoughts in the USA..
Maybe dan can give us a new challenge in this waiting time *hehe*
I could only wish people in USA well, sad time indeed.
Its pretty scary. I'm in Texas and were getting some of it.
I'll have a new challenge (gaming) for you guys up later today ;)
Yaay, great news dan :)

As I've said previously, at present we do not REQUIRE a clock/timer to be visible during your attempts, although it is PREFERABLE.
Pity, i repeat, you should insert it into the guidelines to avoid such discussions...
Dear friend, i thank'you and i undertand you about the timer but if they don't want it, please stop asking! Please stop with that discussion!!!
Trust so sad cause mailman no understand English language in red. T-T

Another funny thing is the one that had just been approved (16 Oct) is the one on the left (Zelda 34 secs)
But Curveball still did not arrive (approved on 29 Aug)
Sorry to see one got bent a little, but glad they arrived!

These should no longer be enterable, but if they are, please don't as they are rested and will NOT be adjudicated!
Well done..

Perfect timing getting a record so late in the stream!
He won't have it for long :)
