That's really cool, thanks for the response.

Unsure if this has been found before. Apparently, you can jump off the border of the one-hit kill (frame perfect).

How did I come to this: I'm usually a little ahead of the cycle and I just kept trying to jump right before death for fun. Now wondering if this can be applied anywhere else.

Not sure why the comment was removed. I get you Anerag no worries, just how another mod handled the issue is a joke. Maybe he can find other words besides derogatory ones as replies :)

Mr. Fox#7887 is a joke and should be removed from the boards because he believes he knows what is "developer intended" in this game right.

What an absolute joke of a situation. The first time I had a discussion about it with him in discord, the discussion went off the road right from hello because he lacked elementary politeness in a regular human greeting. He couldn't keep his cool when I was explaining the facts and my point of view regarding the aforementioned topic. When I explained thoroughly about why it shouldn't be considered as against the rules, his responses were "so why did you even start running with these rules", "if you want we can make a category just for you", "your attitude is bullshit" for not agreeing with him, "I need to summon my brain cells" because "my claims are backed on nothing" just like his own arguments (developed intended btw).

Allegedly, everything I said was nonsense. The best argument by him was "Anerag made the rules, I had nothing to do with this". He refused to acknowledge the definition of a "glitch" and just continued to talk ONLY about "developer intended" interactions because "bUt iTs iN tHe hIsToRy bOoK". NO OTHER ARGUMENTS.

If you're so keen to prove that it's developer intended, contact one of the devs and let us know that it's true. Until then, it shouldn't be considered a glitch because that is solely based on your personal opinion, backed with absolutely nothing but "iTs iN tHe hIsToRy bOoK".

I have screenshots of the conversation with the Mighty Fox saved, including independent conversations with other developers (not MM7 ofc) and asking their take on it. Mighty Fox threw some more verbal abuse at me and blocked me on discord shortly after. A few minutes later, he notified Anerag that he will step down as a mod (which he did) and said we can basically do what we want. EVERYONE besides him was on the take that it shouldn't be considered as a glitch/exploit. Now miraculously, I saw that my time has been moved to any%, MightyFox is a mod again and then there is this discussion here. Fucking hell, this is literally why no one wants to speedrun this game when it's being handled by a bombaclaat.

Kindly let us know what did the developers intended Mighty Fox :)

Looking forward to your supreme intelligence.

Thanks for taking your time to clarify the questions! I might've misworded the follower part, but thankfully you covered both possible answers. See you soon on the boards!

I've been playing this game for the past 15 years. Me and my brother have played this game for thousands of hours (literally, we learned our English thanks to this game). We got a few questions for you about a few specific rules in the "glitchless" cat.

1. Stealing control cube
2. Repeated use of wells or shrines
3. Using followers at Shoals or Lincoln
4. Completing Vampires without killing Vampire Lord

Can someone please explain how are these the rules in the GLITCHLESS category when none of these are glitches. I respect that these may be your personal rulesets, but these should not be reflecting on the glitchless boards. Every causal player can do those tricks without having the consent that these are actually "glitches".

1. Control cube is meant to be stolen. What defines it as a glitch?

2. Wells are meant to be used. Imagine doing a run and you're allowed to "refresh" your HP only once. Just because they allowed players to get infinite SP/ EXP in the land of the giants, that doesn't mean it's an error/bug/glitch. It is clearly intentional and I like how people have come up with different strategies for that.

Please confirm what defines multiple uses on a single fountain as a glitch.

3. That's a tricky one, we're still allowed to use the jar right, because it's a different location (warp) and not a bug/glitch. That jar isn't there by a random accident.

4. Alright, vampire part is really a bug as it's not in their intended player journey and it's legitematelly broken. However, is it really a glitch abuse if you don't do anything.

Looking forward to any mod responses before double checking with the content mods.

Also on a sidenote, from previous forum discussions there were made separate categories for light/dark side. There's a clean nearly 7 hour run without abusing any glitches (unless you seriously consider those above mentioned glitches), why has it been forced to regular any% when it could've been in the Any% glitchless cat instead of being forced to be with literal glitch exhibitions. Don't get me wrong, the times on the board are insane with well done research and I do not mean this post in any bad way. Cheers

I have the same thing when I'm using the webcam, that everything just doesn't fit. In my honest opinion it's fine. But I'd recommend adding an input display (gamepadviewer etc) to "enhance" the validity of the run.
