It was only used for green pepper PC runs and PAL console runs, but 1) nobody ever ran on green pepper and it's not gonna happen in the foreseeable future, and 2) console runs are super niche. Besides, the main differentiation that should be made on the leaderboard is between non-Japanese and Japanese versions anyway, so I'm in favour of removing the PAL region from VC.

Let me know if you think otherwise, but for the love of god don't come up with a counterargument that you personally don't vouch for.
