You are not able to have a record on the rankings if it involves a new strategy discovery, until there is a video and proper explanation of said strategy made public for everyone to access. For example, if you claim a new strategy that skips Trev's speech entirely on Statue, and claim a 2:10, you are not able to have that time ranked until you have a video of it and an explanation on how to perform the new strategy made public. While discouraged, hoarding a new strategy is allowed so that you can keep it to yourself and keep playing until you obtain an untied world record or otherwise personally significant record. However said record will not be ranked until a video and explanation are made public.

Modifying your controllers is allowed in the instances of inserting a new control stick (Gamecube style sticks allowed) or repairing or removing buttons (ie: you can remove the R button completely if you feel it gets in the way and is unnecessary.) You are allowed to do anything to your controller so long as it is not modified in a way which produces inputs which were not naturally programmed into the game.

Pressing down on the circuit board to freeze the game’s timer but still completing objectives in game, is not allowed ([[Trent]]'s Circuit Board Strategy)
