Should Any% be added as a category?

Any% is where you try and finish something as fast as possible without cheating. The only reason I can think of not adding it is that there won't be much to Any%. But then I thought that we could leave it as a filler category until someone finds a glitch that could only work with Any%.

Also, no poll because those can easily be rigged, I just want some discussion about this before adding it.

The only reason you would do any% is to do block glitch, which is absurd as a main category as it is a borderline illegal for the server (something which makes many multiplayer game speedruns not necessarily friendly to an "Any%"). Digger assist doesn't really work for any category other than digger, and there isn't anything else. Wait until there's something substantial to add before you add it at all

Then I guess I see no valid counterarguments against it :P

(except for fatty's, but his isn't really an argument against Any%, but rather an argument against making Any% the "main" category for leaper)

I guess I'm a little late to the discussion, but I guess I'd agree with Fatty on this one.

If you guys are gonna implement an Any%, I wouldn't make it a standard category, rather a subcategory for leaper (really the only one that would need to menu grab as Disruptor gets blocks, Warper IS an exploit category, DIgger gets blocks too, and Helpless menu grabbing is just kitless solo).

Here's another alternative: Replace Exploit/NE with Any% for the exploit category, and allow the exploited times to use the menu grabbing, as menu grabbing is an exploit, so there isn't really a counterargument to add it to exploits.

I would NOT suggest flat out allowing it as the main category like Fatty said, it would just devalue all the runs by up to 1 second.

I'm going to go with Fatty and lock this thread.
