Most likely because it says you have to complete levels 1-5, you just skip straight to level 5, I don't think that would necessarily count as a completed level if you skip straight to the end, at least that's what I would think, even so, you should ask the mod themself why it's not valid
You missed the first line of the rules, that's what you didn't follow "Complete the first 5 nights of the game"
Skipping nights is not completing the nights, it's skipping them.
I agree that the rule is ambiguous. One could argue that ending on night 5, no matter how you got there, could be considered "completing the first 5 nights", as the 5th night was completed, and time is linear, meaning the previous 4 nights must have existed if night 5 existed.
The mod should clarify the rule to prevent ambiguity.
When it says 'complete' the nights, you can't actually argue that skipping them is the same as completing them.
If skipping is the same as completing, then any% and 100% are the same thing.
tbh I'd have rejected it as well - simple as it gets: it's 100% cheating. you modified a file outside of the means of the game. If I'd try to submit a run of random rpg with long grind session here and just set my level to max w/ a save editor it'd be rejected as well.
