It's fine to leave it, I get it, it'd suck for him to have his run dq'd for something that he didn't change, I'll just beat it again anyways, it'll do me some good to have motivation to try harder.

Orange makes a valid point as to not starting from a new file considering it is a NG+ category anyways, I can concede that to him and if you aren't going to make it a rule, that's fine, I'll just start doing runs from there now.

Since you did add V-Sync being a requirement, as it very well should be, and it is noticeable that Raiin's run has V-Sync off, can it be thrown out? It isn't following the rules as they are set so why should it net him the number one spot on the leaderboard.

To comment on your point of when the timer should be started, if you look at the beginning of my run vs any other run you can see that I actually get the intro scene that the others don't it takes about an extra 1:20 at the start of the run, and since that is where the game really starts I think that should be included. The way steam saves info on games can be weird, your weapons are actually saved through steam regardless of your local files, they talk about it here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/238460/discussions/1/540741131066236448/ What I actually do is a little different, you have to turn of syncing data with steam and I just have a copy of my save file with no levels beaten and just copy that in every time.

For reference, this is what a run of true Any% looks like.

Can we get Categories for Any% No Level Skip, and Co-op Any% No Level Skip, because that's what all of the runs here currently are. The difference in the categories, in case you don't know, in levels 1 and 2 of every act in all chapters, you can just quit the level and move on to the next one. This means you only have to complete 5 levels in every chapter instead of 11.
