No drops means like "no pushing yourself off the cathedral to ride the car" or "no pushing yourself off the right side of the mountain." The whole point is to do a vanilla (no skip run) backwards.
This would work in some places, and seems fun. But, in some places it just would not work. The ice mountain and orange hell are both near vertical climbs. How would somebody get down those without launching themselves a bit to the left, and accidentally flying over? And would you have to and right next to the radio tower from space, or could you just drop wherever you want? And getting back to the tutorial requires some sort of drop/skip to vault over the rock wall. Mostly, it would just be too hard to not go at all to the side in places like ice mountain, orange, and the granite rocks, especially while speedrunning.
But people, we should focus on finding new categories! Some wont work, but just a little brainstorming will get us that right one
I don't think we should "focus on finding new categories" at all. Adding new categories just splits the community and most of them are never run. If people enjoy the idea of a certain type of run, they will run it, and if it gets popular enough, then it might be added to the leaderboard. But there's almost never a case for "hey guys I just came up with this run, add it to the leaderboard." no one else will run it. The person who suggested it probably won't run it.
This is a follow up to the previous news post, see
It has now been decided by the mod team that mobile runs should not be allowed on the individual level leaderboard due to their inaccuracy in timing. All mobile runs will be removed and no more will be ac
