This can get super heated. There was a controversial "glitchless" run of Mirror's Edge at GDQ a few years back...

Sometimes people make a "no major glitches" or "no OOB" category, where specific glitches are disallowed, but others are allowed.

If we're thinking of the same Mirror's Edge run, that was meant to be a joke and to bring to light the ridiculousness of a "glitchless" run as a lot of things can be interpreted as a glitch or not.

Interesting! Thanks for this; this happened just as I was getting into speed running, and I, like many others apparently, didn’t realize that, but I did some googling over lunch and it appears this was the case! Thank you for the extra context.
