without actually seeing what happened it is difficult to say exactly how the glitch occured, but my initial thought is that ekun clipped through the wall beneath the dropdown that you use to leave the boss arena. I assume you werent recording or anything like that? Regarding potential softlocks, I don't think it will cause any problems since I skip far more in the speedrun without issue.

that would basically require setting up a completely separate website, the leaderboards here are not set up in a way that would allow us to manually order the runs. I am not opposed to something like that, but I have no idea how to go about doing that.

I have added an unfair% category, but as far as I can tell there is no way for this site to track things like reloads, so it will be strictly time based.
