This is something that we need to decide as a community. What I am offering is a thread in which we can discuss this respectfully without making our own opinions seem oppressive. I just want to ask a few questions. I am going to state my opinion on the matter and I hope everyone in the community does the same.

If you agree with ESW just because of the interest, or because it is a short category; does that mean that we need a short category as a main category? I'm just wondering if it would be so bad if the shorter categories were misc? People could still run them, they would still be on the leaderboard, but do they NEED to be main categories? This really boils down to a simple question. Should Event Storage Warp be allowed in the main categories?

I'll tell you from experience, Krystal Corruption was much more enjoyable than Any% as it is now. Any% as it is now is a 34 minute run and the majority of it is cutscenes. Krystal Corruption is only 18 minutes, but more of it is gameplay than cutscenes.

My stance is, and will remain, that Event Storage Warp in all forms should not be allowed in the main categories. I believe that even though they are both short categories, Krystal Corruption, and Glitched Any%(Any% as it is now) could coexist as miscellaneous categories. They would both give runners, old and new, a short category that they can enjoy as they please.

I also want to note; whether or not Jub posts in this forum thread, that we should remember his stance is much against the existence of Event Storage Warp in the main categories.

May we finally put this to rest as a community.
