So i was reading the rules of this run and rule number 1 states "Group Display option under the general settings menu gives the moderators vital information, it must be turned on and remain unobstructed from view." After watching a handful of runs on the police station with none of them having the settings on? is this rule just voided since no one is listening or???

some of the lower ranked runs have the setting on and the quad #1 but why are there so many runs let through that don't follow the very first rule of the run?

We explained this in an announcement via our community Discord server, but basically Its still a rule, we've just been lenient since this is unlike any other Outlast game to date and we have a huge influx of submissions for all the games in the series still.

Starting within the next few days we're gonna stop being lenient

I was curious about this as well because a few recent runs i have seen (some first place runs) had Group display turned off, is the rule still in play or not, because its the first rule on the list yet some people still arent following it and are getting runs verified.
