Rules so far

  1. Expert only because I said so and fuck that flashlight
  2. you have to livestream sucks to be you if your internet isnt fast enough OR your system is too old to do it too. We dont really care
  3. HAVE to use Spite Extreme since normal Spite isnt extreme enough imo
  4. CANNOT pick up weapons or use them same goes for melees because I am making sure that no one else plays this
  5. CANNOT heal because why not, it doesnt matter since we are on expert and tanks insta down but when did these make sense. And fuck you too
  6. oh btw those items that the game comes with? Fuck them too since we are not using anything.
  7. no using of these mysterious "cheat spots" since the tanks dont like that they cannot kill you.
  8. do not use menu for anything, if you accidently open a menu you should uninstall the game and stream that too so I know you uninstalled it
  9. Oh! You can bhop but not where it matters. and btw using bad level design or overlooked skips is cheating and you will be banned
  10. Yeah those skips that makes the whole speedrun even played in the first place? You cannot use them, again just making sure no one plays this.
  11. oh dont pick up gas cans that arent made for the idea of pouring because of a objective, I am sure this vague rule isnt gonna be abused and misunderstood.
  12. yeah rule 11. is ONLY for gas cans, you know those red ones? you can shove a propane up your ass if you want but no touching those gas cans. Especially the red ones.

Have fun and I hope no one plays this since I made the rules so strict that there is no competing of skill level but only luck! :)

This was meant to be done many months ago, but the time and motivation simply didn't exist to make it happen.
