On the rules for Death% it states you must be on a new save file. But, ComicBlue's run starts on a file that has reached mission 2. So am I able to use a pre-existing save file for Death%?

Also ComicBlue's run didn't end on the try again screen.

As for Death%, I will admit that I made a weak decision in terms of verifying these runs. From what we have at the moment, Death% starts at level 1 and ends at level 1, as you can die in the tutorial. This can be changed if we get enough feedback as to otherwise but as to now, I will be unverifing the runs.
