Scouting is analyzing the map in cheat mode using a bunch of cheat codes to check all possible walkthrough options.
A Walkthrough is completing the map following an option selected during scouting. A "clean run". If scouting is done correctly, no more than 2-3 "clean" runs will be required.
Well, that's basically what I'm saying: if scouting doesn't count as an attempt, then a player could scout the map using cheat codes several times via different options so that the final clean run is ideally a single one. Why did you suddenly settle on the numbers "no more than 2-3 clean runs"? Why not 1 or 4, for example? Or do you have some compiled material based on real examples? Can you provide them? ;)
