No more any% extension runs

Effective immediately, any% runs will not be accepted on the H2 extension categories due to a general lack of effort and interest in them.

Edit: All any% submissions from the past are now rejected.

Again: You cannot submit any% runs to the H2 extension boards going forwards.

I understand this but why not just keep it up in case someone wants to compete there? It doesn't look like it costs extra time to review and it could accommodate to those people who do want to run it. All in all what is the trouble of keeping it up and reviewing a vid whenever it comes along?

It does cost more time to review, the whole reason I removed any% extensions is because it was more trouble than it was worth.

The majority of any% submissions were slower than the SA extension submissions. This meant that all SA runs had to be tediously submitted to any% extensions categories as well to prevent false "WR" claiming.

This is besides the fact that a good majority of the community (both SA and any% runners) agreed that any% is best run with zero restrictions, and any% with extension restrictions defeats the point of any% to begin with.

All that said, if there is an influx of well-optimized (faster than SA records, at least) any% extension runs in the future, we may consider adding them back.
