  1. The goal is to accumulate as many points as possible from the items/objectives below in one hour. Some rules to note:
  2. - ***This is boss/enemy randomizer.***
  3. - You must finish as close to as 1 Hour as possible.
  4. - You are allowed to end 5 minutes early. Any finish earlier than 0:55:00 is counted as a DQ.
  5. - For every minute past 1:00:00, you are penalized 5 points sequentially (ex. 5 points for 1 minute, 5 + 5 points for 2, 5 + 5 + 5 for 3, etc.).
  6. - You cannot enter Final Fights past 1:00:00.
  7. - The latest version DA's Tracker is a requirement for this race, as it is the only version of the tracker at the moment that supports the Points hint system.
  8. - In addition, all checks *must* be autotracked. If a check has to be tracked manually, you may only do so once you find the check and it did not autotrack. You may never put checks you haven't found in your tracker, and your tracker must be on-screen at all times.
  9. - Both PC and PCSX2 are allowed so long as both players are playing on the same version. **Having the PCSX2 version of the randomizer ready is a minimum requirement for this, since it is the easiest to access and most stable version.** If both players have the PC version and would like to play on PC, they can discuss it before their match. The reason for instating this rule is because boss/enemy randomization is different for each version.
  10. - If, for whatever reason, someone signs up without access to the PCSX2 version, and they play an opponent who cannot play on PC, they will be DQ'd if they cannot set up the PCSX2 version of the randomizer.
  11. - There is a glitch where you are forced into Twilight Town 2nd Visit after some boss fights. After some discussion, it's been decided that, should this happen, the player must leave through a save point or take a 20 point penalty.
  12. - Although not a rule, you are strongly advised to save often, whether that be through Save Points or savestates. You never know if you'll run into a boss that crashes/softlocks you (Barbossa is the key offender of this), so save often. I recommend making a save at *every save point before a boss*.
  13. - In the event of a tie, the order first is how many Bonus Points are obtained, and if that ties, it is the number of important checks, and if that ties, it's the closest to finish to 1 hour.
  14.  
  15. Point tallies:
  16. - Each important check tallied as followed according to DA's tracker:
  17. - Drive Forms = 10 points
  18. - Magic = 8 points each, including upgrades
  19. - Summons = 6 points
  20. - SC/OM = 4 points each
  21. - Ansem Reports = 2 Points Each
  22. - Torn Pages = 4 points each
  23. - Each Bonus Level up is 10 points. Find a list of bonus levels here for reference:
  24. - https://www.khwiki.com/Bonus_Level#Kingdom_Hearts_II_Final_Mix
  25. - Each Drive Level up is 3 points
  26. - Blue numbering a world that is not 0 is 10 points
  27. Bonus points calculated at the end of the race:
  28. - Collecting all 13 reports gives 25 bonus points
  29. - Collecting all 5 Torn Pages gives 20 bonus points.
  30. - Defeating a "Data" of a boss (any boss in a Data's location) is 20 points. You may only defeat the data once.
  31. - Ex. If Scar replaces Data Saix, defeating "Data" Scar gets you 20 bonus points.
  32. - Something to note: For Data Xemnas' location, Data Final Xemnas counts as a *different location*. So you can get 40 points from defeating the Data Xemnas I replacement and Data Final Xemnas, or defeat Data Xemnas I and lose to Data Final Xemnas for 20 points.
  33. - Finding and defeating a Data Organization XIII member is 20 points
  34. - Ex. If Data Xigbar replaces Shan Yu, you get 20 bonus points for defeating Data Xigbar.
  35. - Defeating whatever replaces Volcanic and Blizzard Lord is 15 points.
  36. - Defeating whatever replaced Sephiroth is 30 points. You may only do this once.
  37. - Defeating whatever replaced Lingering Will is 30 points. You may only do this once.
  38. - Finding and defeating Sephiroth is 25 points
  39. - Finding and defeating Lingering Will is 50 points
  40. - Defeating Final Xemnas (always the same in 1-to-1 boss randomization) is 100 points
