It has been suggested, a while ago now,

Since the discovery of the Sampo chest seeds would render Any%, Teleportless, and Low% identical; TPless and Low% rules should specify that the player is only allowed to complete the game at The Work underground.

Considering the discussion I've heard on various streams and in discord, I'm going to make this change now and we can revert it if there is substantial objection.

Please object here if you think we shouldn't change it. (You could also message me in private [via speedrun.com, discord, twitter, twitch, etc...] if you are more comfortable that way)

Concern about the potential for abuse of game lag has been brought up (again).

More than one person has expressed that the potential for abuse is greater than the 'pay to win' concern (better PC = less lag which makes it easier to get a better Real Time time) which had more adherents last time.

Please let me know what you think.

(edit: I'm going to wait for comments until 2020-01-17 to render the decision.)

Multiple people have raised concern about the current rules of the teleportless category.

I think it should be changed back to a general ban of any kind of teleporting (intentional or unintentional) except for the Holy Mountain Portal.

Please voice support, opposition or criticism here.

Can someone give me some assistance. I want the page for Noita to be like the pages for Teraria or Factorio where there are "category tabs" at the top and "selector" refinements under each.

I claim, I am not so dense, but I can't quite intuit or search out the answer to this.

Thank any in advance.

After further discussion in other places, I've made an informal poll on the teleportless issue

please consider voting

There has been some informal discussion regarding "Any% Set Seed" as a category name.

Some feel that it inaccurately describes the category; possibly implying that everyone must play from the same seed where actually the player may choose any seed.

Anyone in favor of changing it should speak up, ideally suggesting a new name or expressing favor for a previously suggested name.

Anyone against should speak up in favor of the current name.

As I am the only mod, currently, I will only act a tiebreaker.

I will consider this issue to be resolved on 2019-12-05 without prejudice.
