HungaryThere's this display on speedrun com which shows whether the run did/did not use cheats during the playthrough. The thing is, yesterday I figured out that getting a secret cheat in 1-6 would save significant time in the No Secret Exits category, and I could easily get WR with it. However, at this point, Julien's WR in that category is very and I mean VERY optimized to a point that taking it with a route that uses cheats is very cheap. If I were to get WR, I don't think I would even submit that as an official WR since it is 99.99% more likely that the run wouldn't be as optimized as the current WR. My question would be the following: couldn't we make seperate leaderboards for runs that uses cheats/don't use cheats? For certain categories, such as any% and all of its variants (any%, pacifist, anti-pacifist, and any% coinless), and also all switches, this wouldn't change anything since getting a cheat in the run would be slower anyway. However, for categories like No Secret Exits, KBS and 107%, I think a seperate leaderboards would be required due to the non-cheats WR being optimized as they are, idk what mods think about this but I think it would make getting records way more fair.
