Confusion about Timing
3 years ago
Pennsylvania, USA

I have had two runs recently, both verified by different mods, and they both ended the run at separate times. One in the fade-out before the credits, after Golden Freddy screams, and one after the fight ends, before he screams. What is the definitive point that a run stops? If this is something up for debate, I think it should be after the scream since that's when the credits start.

P.S: I can't respond or view my DMs right now because my account is too young. (Yet I am allowed to submit runs as well as make guides and forum posts, which seems kinda dumb to be honest)

The timing used to end when it showed how many tokens you earned like way back in the day.

So now it ends after the fade out of the final boss because I thought that made more sense. The game is beaten at that point so there really is no reason to keep timing until the credits.

Okay, I guess that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying!

Yea no problem man! That's so weird how you can't check DM's... unfortunate too... cause I did try and contact you through there lul.

I noticed, I can see the notification but I can't do anything with it.

Nice guide DSaC, thinking about doing a Night X run but it seems so rng reliant...

Honestly.... yea it is. Night X 100% honestly is a lot more fun imo. Sure there's RNG, but not nearly as much as Golden Freddy's fight.
