  1. Timing ends upon completion of the last objective in any given category
  2. If defeating Ganon, timing ends on the first frame of the final blow cutscene
  3.  
  4. ***
  5. Proposals to allow (currently banned):
  6. - Seamwalking
  7. (Very limited usefulness in-bounds. All outer boundary seam walks are banned by the below. Only applications are to reach silver gauntlets from mirror shield with just a hookshot, and to get the skulltula in collossus, that I know of currently. Adds a little bit of new optional tech)
  8. - “Crazy Dance” in Spirit Temple [Adult side spirit as child]
  9. (Extremely limited usefulness and potential for softlock should it go wrong. Cannot fully skip strength in spirit as only adult can complete the dungeon, but could potentially lead to 3 early items (hand + 2 sun chests on adult passthrough))
  10. - Child in Gerudo Fortress
  11. (Most potential for use, however it would require a kokiri sword for cucco jump as that trick is impossible with a stick should you also ban quickdraw, and reaching it from wasteland means already having done it as adult. Only accomplishment of this is to skip hookshot/epona for gerudo access and would potentially take more time to do than to find those items naturally. Clunky ban as well)
  12. - Flame Storage
  13. (Literally a quality of life / speed tech trick. Inarguably a glitch, however its uses make already possible tricks/skips easier. Deku basement lighting the torch means no more frame perfect jumpslashes or pushing the block, zora's domain torch run is slightly faster but no easier or harder, and child spirit sun room without din's or doing the rupee puzzle is trivially easy with flame storage and already possible without. Only advantageous item-skip usage is getting the royal tomb chest without din's / fire arrows, however that trick is very easy to learn using nothing more than quick sidehops and a bit of positioning. also this glitch is trivially easy to execute)
  14. - Schrodinger’s chain
  15. (Straight up quality of life. very easy to execute and explain. opens up the harder early game routes for less experienced players and would allow anyone who made a mistake in their time of day routing to potentially save it and not have to wait the night and lose a lot of time. speeds up the game and requires a little bit of skill, although not necessarily always useful)
  16. - Z-slide
  17. (I'd potentially like to add super swimming, which is a z-slide in water, as performing it is easy and it speeds up swimming through lake hylia as child and adult. very limited use, more quality of life with low cost / barrier to entry)
  18.  
  19. Proposed Ban (currently not mentioned):
  20. - Quickdraw (adding this ban to prevent cucco jump with a stick, also it is a glitch and not useful at all with IM banned)
  21. ***
