Looking out the window?

I get the whole 100% thing but is there really any point of looking out the window? I know we see all other cutscenes but technically we skip the whole laboratory scene because our timer starts as soon as the desk appears in the water and Lester is active for us to control. I've always felt there should be a Any% and a Any% Glitchless category instead. Meaning no zips, skips, glitches etc. I guess I look out that window and question it everytime lol.

Yeah I think the idea of the any% and 100% categories should maybe have a re-think? My any% run was basically the same as 100% just without the window cutscene, which I think is an arbitrary addition to that category.

Just throwing out the idea of categories separated by skips vs. no skips (or even glitched vs. glitchless but I can’t even pretend to understand ‘glitches’ for this game lol).

I always questioned it myself to be honest, but didn't think I should change the rules for a category which already had runs when I became a moderator of the game. (I did change the name to 100% though. I think we can agree the old name of "100% with Window CutScene" was dumb lol)

@Brandooates I've added you as a mod so you can do as you like with the leaderboards; while I'm always on speedrun.com I'm not all too active within this game.
