I keep trying to submit to have a new category for Project Zomboid;s A Really CD DA challenge mode. If you know the challenge mode then the goals of the speedrun are, cure the cold and heal the injury, then sleep in a bed. Which makes a fair amount of sense if you know the challenge.

I keep getting rejected because "We are not accepting speedruns from endless games with arbitrary goals".

But there are speedruns for other endless games with arbitrary goals.

Such as Dayz and 7dtd die having a "Kill a zombie" speedrun, or the sims having a "Max out a carrier speedrun". What makes these endless games with arbitrary goals allowable compared with mine?

I know Project Zomboid has an active player base, especially for the challenge mode, and has an average of 14k players online. Me and some friends who play the game are waiting until we can get the category to do speedruns, but its wierd that the rules are unevenly enforced across the board.

Is there any way I can actually talk to the people that reject the runs to seek clarification?
