So, a while ago, there was quite a lot of Debate about certain rules. At the time, I dictated the rules were one way and one way only, and this was not proper modding.

I wish to apologize, at the time, I was a new mod, I was thrust into this mod position without even asking or being told about it, I just opened up speedrun.com one day to find im suddenly a mod for this catagory, and to this date, I still don't know why or how or when. Because of this, I was unprepared and inexperienced at handling this situations.

A while has passed, and I also had the chance to talk to CrafterDark for a little, and I'd also realized something. Rules are decided by the community as a whole, not the mods alone.

Because of this, the old debate about preserving items is moot as of this point. The rules specifically state that placing items inside the bedrock chamber is forbidden, and when you start up the Survival Branch, you are told you are in pure survival mode. Because of this, I hereby decree that altering the command blocks by placing blocks/levers/whatever on the outside of the bedrock chamber, is in fact NOT in violation of the rules.

Last time this came up, I was being extremely dogmatic about it, and now I think it's time to fix that. Of course, all other rules still apply, but from now on, I'll try to be a better mod lest this game die.
