FractalFusion: Bit 5 of byte 0x0C was set, indicating hack use. Along with the plaintext format, it causes the site to flag many frames as hacked. To clear this, I have cleared bit 5 of byte 0x0C.
FractalFusion: Added branch "E3 Version".
FractalFusion: Judging.

Should this portion be moderated if I uncancel this ? Im not sure its revelant to the next judge or the audiance FF: Im not even sure you should step down from judging this, I mean, im cool with your explanation, shit happen, sometime we can all say stuff we regret, while i dont regret the way i handled this, i would regret if you are to step down because of your answers, they can be deleted or simply ignored, maybe i did a bit exagerate myself too, but i was for sure pissed off like never, hence my reaction.

I have to vote no on this run. I dislike the idea of using a beta version of a game, which is designed to show off the game for advertising purposes, not really supposed to be official and representative of the final version of gameplay. Such versions may be a bit different than an official game, but they're also expected to be buggier, and thus runs made with them aren't as impressive. Perhaps people who played this at E3 would find this run impressive, but I doubt our audience is populated by such people who would fully appreciate it. Nor do I know if E3 goers really dived into the game to the extent that they'd realize how many things done in this run aren't supposed to be possible. To me overall, this run seems a lot like the other SotN runs, just using a different route. Because of the similarities, and that we already have plenty of SotN runs, and I personally as a viewer don't really find this run to be unique, I just have to vote no.
