Are untimed pauses allowed in ILs?

Title says it all really. I was just wondering whether this was allowed.

French Southern Territories

Is it allowed to play the game, then pause, not time the pause, and play the game in a single-segment run. I think single-segment is self-explino ... explonat ... it explains itself on its own. If you don't time it, then you can pause every tick to align your tricks. I don't think it's allowed and if it is, it shouldn't in my opinion.

I dont fucking know anymore, source engine is too stupid by now. I understand that other games (even one i run) use pause buffering since forever but they are all timed as they should. But what do i know...

In hl2 maxam got shit for using pauses during loads, afterwards it was changed to engine ticks with pauses in livesplit.

Audio requirements

Starting today, runs that require video proof (top 25) and runs beyond that where video is the only form of proof, now require audio, as recording audio for only the game is now a native OBS feature.
