Hey,
Why is the turret killing GLaDOS considered a glitch? (for a glitchless run) Legit question because the turrets shoots onto me, hits glados, and she drops all her cores. I'm not doing anything to make it glitch. It's legit use of Portals, right?
Thanks in advance for the answer.

'Glitchless' category is very very VEEEEERY arbitrary. What was considered a glitch a while ago isn't what is considered a glitch now. If you want to clear your mind, rename "Glitchless" into "Some tricks are banned" as a category name in your head, because 'glitches' is too vague.
A guide saying that shooting glados with turrets from the hallway is wrong, because it's illegal.
I understand... man, I had 19:45 on what I thought was Glitchless, but actually is inbounds then. That sucks :(. Oh well, I understand. Thank you for your explaination.

All previous full runs utilizing it will be grandfathered in, and all previous ILs utilizing it will be
