Softlock%

Hi ! when I try to speedrun the game, I found how to softlock the game (link of my video ) and I propose to add the category softlock%

United States

First off, before I start, welcome to the community, and thank you for reviving the forums!

We've known about this softlock trick for a while now, but I've been a bit hesitant to create an entire category for it due to its extremely short length (from start to finish, the entire run takes about 5 seconds, give or take). Because of this, any Softlock% category would undoubtedly become super optimized super fast, eliminating any hope of the legitimate competition that makes speedrunning so fun. Therefore, I will unfortunately have to decline your proposal.

However, if you're still not satisfied, I can put the proposal up to public vote among our Discord community (which you should totally join 😉) and let democracy do the rest. Keep in mind that just because Softlock% is not a category on the boards does not mean that you cannot still run it.

Above all, though, I'd like to give you another warmhearted welcome to our community, and I'm looking forward to watching any future speedruns that you might have in store.

We ultimately decided to put Softlock% up to public vote in our Discord, with a voting period of 5 days. The results of the vote after 5 days were 1 for and 3 against, so Softlock% will not be added to the boards. Remember that you may still run the category unofficially by yourself, however.

We assumed Flash RNG would be chaotic and completely unpredictable. As it turns out we were wrong, F
