pressing M once you die and start to fade but before the end screen appears puts you in a dead but invulnerable state where you can still collect diamonds - might be useful for 100% once i put up a proper proposal for it
The reasoning behind it not being allowed in normal categories - any%, aum, etc. is that a well known streamer can get more coins by people failing to find their balloon on purpose and make easy to find balloons that are easy coins.
This also means that a new runner will have a harder time because they aren't well known. I understand that assist mode is supposed to be faster - hence assist mode and amiibo's allowed, however, they are STILL random and exploitable, and should not be allowed

It got me thinking about some categories, specifically categories that start after corvus - maybe an "all dungeons" category for killing all 12 dungeon bosses + all legacy bosses. What do people think about this, is it reasonable?
