It's lawful, not chaotic. Malicious compliance is still following the rules.

SmallAnt is the person that forced the theme park to put a sign at the theme park that says: No taking pictures eating a live cow while nekad shouting the lyrics to feliz navida.

this is like getting a high score on my old pinball machine, you can hit it to make the score counter go wonky and increment itself erroneously. or the time i won my track meet by shooting everybody else in the leg.

[@Griffin_09]

At 10:54 someone by the name of Extrasyllabe typed out a very long message. This was when Smallant was looking away so I decided to write it out for you here. I think it is actually quite useful so here it goes. Beat the game as fast as possible. Timing begins when you select “Start” and ends when you shoot out of the electric wire in the escape sequence. RTA timing is used meaning runs must be completed within one setting and the timer cannot be pause at any point in the run. All runs require video proof (with audio). Runs must be done entirely with your switch in docked or undocked Mode, you may not switch between the two mid run. The use of a Amiibo, Luigi’s balloon world and assist mode is not allowed.

I feel like we legit learned a lot about the limits of the game through this. We learned how the game attempts to prevent skipping kingdoms, and what potential roadblocks and solutions we might encounter if any major kingdom skip glitches are found in the future.

[@CalamitasCalliope]

I'm fully expecting them to add a rule that just says, "No modifying the game files(We're looking at you SmallAnt)"
