[center]SKIP DEFINITION[/center]

1. A strategy is a skip if it REDUCES DISTANCE TRAVELLED by any one of the following methods:

• a. Going out of bounds (oob), which is defined by initiating the game's internal oob timer. An oob region does not count if it is unavoidable or part of the track spline.
• b. Clipping through a wall or object that has collision (from any direction).
• c. Triggering a lap some place other than the start-finish line.

2. A strategy may also be deemed a skip if it REDUCES DISTANCE TRAVELLED and is judged to be a skip using the following principles:

• a. These factors contribute to the strategy being a skip: -- i. Cutting a significant portion of the track. -- ii. Wall riding, extreme climbing, or bouncing. -- iii. An unusual jump or another advanced trick. -- iv. Driving through a visible texture (without collision). -- v. The route is very different from the track spline (in distance or shape). -- vi. Accessing an area that appears to not be developer-intended.
• b. These factors contribute to the strategy NOT being a skip: -- i. Offroad. -- ii. A jump that is directly accessible from the track spline. -- iii. It appears to be little more than a creative line or hidden shortcut. -- iv. The pod stays on flat or almost-flat ground. -- v. The route is similar to the track spline (in distance or shape). -- vi. Accessing the area or performing the strategy appears to be developer-intended.

3. If a strategy requires triggering a Maximum Fall Glitch (MFG), or using the AI to load portions of track, then it is an MFG/AI skip.
4. A strategy that enables a recovery from a mistake is not a skip, as long as it does not cut less distance than not making the mistake in the first place.

Rule (2) is judged on a case-by-case basis by the mod team. The mod team must make its decision based solely on how the strategy in question fits into the principles in Rule (2). Both the number of principles met, and the degree (or severity) to which they are met, matter. If a strategy is called into question, the mod team holds a vote. In the event of a tie, it is considered a skip. A previous decision can be changed with a two-thirds majority vote. All decisions must be logged and dated on the speedrun.com forum.
