30 November 2024

  • Extra Tutorials Remix option is now universally banned. This is due to further discoveries with the bug, including that it can be triggered multiple times in a single cycle and has wider applications than previously thought. The exploit in question allowed the player to reset the cycle timer by entering a gate room where Iggy does the "Stand on the gate" tutorial. It was also performed multiple times on accident, making it a potential issue even for those not trying to abuse the bug.

13 December 2024

  • No Vulture cheese! rule in <@&1178062110543057082> is changed to No Echo pacification!. This is primarily a change for ease of understanding, but it does incidentally ban Echo pacification strategies unrelated to Vultures.
  • Various other minor rewordings, reorganisations, and changes in capitalisation for consistency and ease of understanding without any change of meaning.

  • The multi-spawning documentation link in <@&1178062110543057082> and <@&1305977440987775047> has been updated to one specifically written for this purpose, rather than the pre-Remix #tech-resources post.

21 January 2025

  • The <@&969750889864757308> description has been changed to remove the starve death requirement. The new description only requires you to reach the ending shelter, rather than starving to death in it.

  • Hunter Cycles and Hunter Bonus Cycles now cannot be greater than the default values rather than being required to be exactly the default. Now you can reroll redsFlower much more easily, if you ever need it hunterrip
    ||Hunter Long Legs is an easy way to clip into the Metropolis gate, so it's easier to do <@&1249102433515475017> on a few more campaigns! invwink||

28 September 2025

  • The <@&821079440552362015> and <@&1249102247543963769> server challenges have been changed from RTA to IGT for timing, meaning they will use the ingame timer rather than the raw length of the recording.
  • <@&821079440552362015>'s timer has been changed from 39 minutes to 38 minutes to account for this. <@&1249102247543963769> will remain the same.
  • A console proof has been added for <@&821079440552362015> and <@&1249102247543963769>: Short clips at the start of the run showing speedrun validation, and of reaching the final void sea screen transition. (Do note that this could be changed in the future.)

9 October 2025

  • Yeek Mauling Fix has been removed from the sheet's primary allowlist and is now a banned mod.
    • Short reasoning: the reason to allow it was that it's a patch for a PC-exclusive glitch. Since the console update makes that no longer true, this is no longer applicable.

19 October 2025

  • A console proof has been added for <@&1121561253089914911> - Short clips of pinning each unique live creature, all with cycle timer visible.

24 December 2025

  • No more Guardian Skip for <@&821033115911716865>. Reasoning:
    • This was banned in the original wording for Saint as falling under "no glitches", but was erroneously unbanned when the wording was made more explicit on what exactly is banned.
    • This fits under the intent of the challenge through "all 3 objectives", as Guardian Skip is effectively skipping one of the objectives.

20 February 2026

  • Explicitly disallowed the Vanilla Exploit in which most of the save data remains after wiping a campaign save that's on a starvation cycle, on challenges that require a New Game (e.g. "starting cycle" ones or <@&821079440552362015>).
    • This may still be exploited on challenges that do not fall under this category. However, even with the gameplay effect of it resetting getting Watcher's endings, it doesn't seem like this can be used to trivialise any existing challenge besides exploiting a "starting cycle"/"game start" loophole since it only resets certain aspects of MiscProgressionData such as viewed tutorials, not affecting SaveState or DeathPersistentSaveData.
  • Snailfully adds that a challenge batch happened 3 days ago (#server-announcements message), including <@&1466835011461316628>, <@&1466836024452976871>, <@&1466835526899208233>, <@&1466835323735769290>, and <@&1466835786157527100>. 🐌

  • Modified the Screenshots cannot be cropped or edited in any way. rule to be Proof cannot be cropped, sped up, or obfuscated., to make it explicit that the equivalent rule applies to video recordings as well and that speeding up is also disallowed. This was already the de facto consensus, just not portrayed on the sheet.
  • <@&1466835011461316628> now has an additional requirement of a hibernation screen with ||a feathered region visible on the warp map||, as an easy way to check the maximum rather than current ripple.

24 March 2026

  • <@&904855352451956746> now has a console-friendly submission method: Clips of leaving and re-entering the starting shelter, and one at the rotless Memory Conflux room turnaround. (3 clips total)
