Lor, the categories were perfectly sufficient for anyone who wanted to do the challenge or who enjoyed readingnabout it. You think "strong clicky" is vague but that there's no difference between using a disease cure pot and 10x stinging worts? Your attempt at categories is no better than before.
The only people who complain about anything in the sac are people who weren't doing it, couldn't understand how anyone would have fun with it, mocked people who enjoyed doing it or reading about it, etc. That's all pretty apparent for someone who followed it, or even just this thread.

Great: your words make sense to you in your brain. But again, I wasn't talking about making things make sense to Tecmos, it was about making it clear to
everyone in the forum what a person means when they say "I soloed ___".
Again, I NEVER said "my list is better than Tecmos's!" Seriously, show me the quote if I did, but I don't think I ever did (I have too much respect for you to do that). All I did was propose a simple list (
clearly inspired by your's) to start a conversation, and you're acting like I stabbed you in the back or something.
If everyone agrees that Wort potions don't matter to soloing, great! If the community says "it makes sense to mention puppet strings, but not wort potions", GREAT! I will 100% support that and use whatever term we want to use for "I soloed ____ using wort potions but not puppet strings".
But I reject the idea that
any player just gets to arbitrarily decide the rules of (as I keep repeating) A LARGELY PERSONAL CHALLENGE. I don't think
anyone should tell someone else how to play a game, or even just how to talk about it. Let's let the community decide that last part.
I really don't think it should be about anyone "gatekeeping" or "judging" anyone else. I just would prefer less forum arguments resulting from person A and person B having different definitions of "soloing", and I could care less how we improve communication, as long as it's something everyone can agree on.
I don't think your categories are bad or wrong, and I wasn't in any way trying to ignore them and replace them with mine (although I do think they're not 100% clear). At the very least "strong clickies" needs definition, but more importantly I just don't think "repeat Tecmo's asterisks and plus symbols in forum posts and everyone will just magically know what they mean and think those categories are perfect" is the right solution.
