In looking for faster routes, I've noticed that the French version of the map is slightly different and does let you be faster since you have access to beds from the beginning of the map. This raises two questions that I didn't want to decide on my own.
-
Should using the French version of the map be allowed since it's technically a different map? (If people think it makes sense we could also potentially have it as a separate category)
-
Should bed clutching be legal? The beds are intended to be placed down to set your spawn, so I don't see an issue there (placing beds doesn't break map rules). My concern would be the fact that you maintain your fall damage and die once you get out of the bed. One could argue that since you die at the bottom you didn't finish the level, but you could say the same thing about the keyhole button on level 17.
I didn't want to make a unilateral decision, so please feel free to give input.
I submitted a run for The Dropper Minecraft Map (https://www.speedrun.com/mcm_dropper/full_game) over 3 weeks ago. One of the moderators hasn't been online in 10 months, and I haven't been able to contact the other moderators since they don't allow messages on Discord or Twitter.
Similarly to the previous post on this forum, I do have a pending WR, which could be a conflict of interest, but I would be interested in moderating the game since its a small game and all of the current mods moderate a bunch of other games in addition to this one.
