Okay well I'm stupid so can you repeat to me how any% can mean different things? Can't you humour me instead of attempt to belittle me for no reason? Jeeze.

Again you're saying that the community decides that any% excludes cheat codes.

No. I'm saying that speedrunners in general have come to that consensus, it has nothing to do with any% runs specifically.

You're saying that they are deciding the definition of any% based on the needs of their game.

No. People in a community can decide to make leaderboards for whatever categories they want, and they can name them whatever they want. That doesn't negate the concept of the fastest completion of the game sharing the definition of any% regardless of what it's named in that particular community.

Games with cheat codes probably don't allow them in any% (which makes it not any% by your definition)

By your definition*. You can't blame me if you refuse to accept the thing I've said multiple times now.

Some games allow console commands in their version of any%.

This doesn't contradict anything I've said.

You're just wrong lmao

Most people use pornhub to jerk off, you use internet arguments lmao.
