It has come to my attention that some races which don't have any skips are having times submitted for both any% and no skips. As such, I propose a new ruling (which, without objections, will go into effect on the 16th) -

If a race does not have skips, only submit times for the main category (any%)

I'll make this a requirement for all races unless there are objections in 2 weeks (the 16th). Current runs would be edited to be in the any% category if they don't follow the rule.

We can also go in the opposite direction - preferring to submit for the no skips category, but this implies to the unknowing viewer that skips may exist for the level, when in reality there are no accepted submissions.

Motivations:

• There's currently an any% race category with a slower time than a no skips category, which I think is silly.
• Some runs don't have skips we know of, and we have submissions for both. This is redundant. Speedrun.com doesn't offer granular enough control for me to disable these categories, but I am capable of effectively removing these categories by not approving future runs and modifying existing ones.
• The spirit of my opinion: If your run is effectively the same category, it should be in the same category.
• If new skips are discovered then we can talk about them at that point and move the runs over that don't utilize the skips.

Lastly, assuming we go in this direction, I'll include a list of the races which you shouldn't be submitting no skips runs for in the races, and post it for a brief time here before ratifying it in the rules entry for the races.
