Because they aren't really "episodes" (at least in the traditional Life is Strange / Walking Dead / Hitman sense) as much as it is just different endings to the same opening (and they are referred to as "endings" in the game). And I don't include the intro because it just doesn't seem really necessary to the run? I might add a category with intro or add a listing with intro in addition to without. I don't have too particularly strong of an opinion either way.

I hope this satisfies your question.

Hello, I would like to be added as a super moderator of The Shivah: Kosher Edition ( https://www.speedrun.com/the_shivah_kosher_edition ) as the game's original requester/moderator has since deleted their account and there are currently no moderators for the game, just two verifiers (myself and 1 other person.)

Didn't know it was available on Switch. Thanks. Updated.

Death% seems like an amusing novelty that I wouldn't be opposed to, but the rest of these are pretty much pointless - Marlon% and Tenn% are basically just the Episode 1 and 4 categories which already exist, and Violet% and Louis% are just more specific versions of a category that literally nobody plays as it is.

The idea of changing the files of the game itself doesn't really sit well with me when the entire point of speedrunning a game is to complete the given game in the fastest time, not change how the game itself functions to make it go faster. I mean, I'd be okay with it being some side/misc category but I don't feel changing the file names in Windows should be allowed in the Main Any% category.

Curses, now I'm going to have to actually face competition in the 100% category, aren't I?

Seriously though, thank you so much for this. I'm really eager to see how this list plays out.
