This is the thread for the Master of Magic (for Windows) Speedrun Contest. You have to link our speedrun videos in this thread.
The rules are as follows:
#1: You must record your entire run start to finish and post a link to that video here in this thread. Starting with the title screen (I want to see the version number in the corner)
#2: It must be played using the current version of Master of Magic for Windows. (1.04.05, 2022-08-02)
#3: NO MODS - The item editor is allowed though.
#4: You must have your Realms Beyond username in the description of the video. So I can verify everyone is posting videos of their own work.
#5: Contest ends on August 28 at 11:59 PM (Alaskan time zone, hey it's my money, so I'll make the rules, and I'm setting it in my own time zone). Video announcing winners may take a day or so to put together after that.
I am giving out prizes for the following three categories. The rules and what I'm willing to shell out is as follows.
Category #1: Any%
