Hey everyone!
As some of you might already know, there was a big glitch discovery recently! This glitch involves playing the game in windowed mode, then moving the window during a midair parry. For some reason, this prevents Chai from falling, and allows you to fly around freely. This is known as the Windowed Flying Glitch, or WFG for short.
Due to concerns about trializing the run (already saves 30 minutes in Any% NG+), many people have been calling to split it into a separate leaderboard, and we've decided to have a community poll about what to do with the glitch.
We have 3 options:
- Leave the boards as they are; allow the Windowed Flying Glitch in every category
- Separate leaderboard for runs that use the Windowed Flying Glitch
- Separate leaderboard for runs that use the Windowed Flying Glitch or Parry Jumps
We'll only be allowing runners or people planning to run the game (actively practicing/learning) to vote on this poll, so you'll need to either provide your speedrun.com name, your Discord name (if you've been in the community but don't have a run on speedrun.com yet), or some other proof of running/learning the game.
Your names will only be collected to verify that you are a runner of the game. At no point will your name and vote be seen side by side.
This is a Ranked Choice Vote, so you'll pick a first choice and second choice from the 3 options. If your first choice is the least popular, your vote will be counted for your second choice instead.
You can vote on this poll here: https://forms.gle/hc7GwKYDHLi5apfT8. The poll will close in one week from now, on July 18th, 2023, at 11:59pm EST.
Also, just as a reminder, please do not submit runs utilizing WFG until we make a decision! To be clear, WFG will be allowed somewhere on the leaderboards after this, so feel free to practice or do runs, just hold off on submitting them until we have a place for them!
Thanks for reading and happy running!!
