This is almost exactly what the SAC did, dude. Why are you bringing all this up like it's a new idea?
Look at my SAC sheet. Notice the symbols next to S sometimes? Those mean things. Go read what they mean. Or how some people mark a D instead of an S? Guess what that means. Lol.

I'm the person that copied your SAC sheet into the wiki, so yes I absolutely read it, and look I never tried to claim that the idea of qualifying solo attempts was a unique one that I made up. On the contrary, this entire discussion is predicated on the very idea that such distinctions existed. But at the same time, as this thread proves, there's still a ton of confusion when someone says "I soloed ___", and those categories being in your post/on that page hasn't solved that confusion.
Just because you made a few categories on your own however many years ago, EVEN IF they were the perfect categories for you and solo artists then, it doesn't mean those are the best possible ones, or what everyone else should use now. Maybe they are: if you read my posts I NEVER said what I was proposing was the best at all. I was purely trying to get the ball rolling.

[S] -> Soloed with self buffs only
[S-] -> Soloed but used strong item clickies
[S*] -> Soloed without pull (or invis pulled)
[S*-] -> Soloed without pull and used strong item clickies

That doesn't seem identical at all to me. Of course there's similarities, but there's some very obvious differences, like say the fact that my list had 3 and your's had 4.
Plus it makes the assumption that A) "strong item clickies" is a universally understood term, and B) that everyone 100% agrees on which ones are strong and which aren't. I don't think that's settled at all.
And again THE WHOLE POINT is that people here think they know what everyone else is thinking! If everyone understood the word "solo" to mean the same thing, this thread wouldn't exist!
