Final Glitchless Rules

Clarification:
Since there is such a gray area in defining what is or is not a "glitch" in this game, a group of OoT players voted to define a set of rules that they would all abide by. It is important that all players use the same rules, since it allows them to compare times with each other. These rules are not perfect, but they are the current standard. This category aims to ban things solely based on the techniques used, not the results of those techniques. To the extent that common sense allows, we may explain this as: "If the means are not a glitch, neither are the ends." So if you do not perform a glitch, you may skip any part of the game, regardless of how important. This category allows a stricter set of techniques than Bug Limit, which allows some of the techniques that fall into the grey area between glitches and non-glitches.

Allowed Techniques:
-Power Crouch Stabbing
-Roll invincibility
-Using post-damage invincibility to avoid further damage, unless you skip a puzzle
-Jumpslashing while mid-air for more distance
-Shield-dropping held objects
-Using broken deku stick
-Hookshot Extension
-Rolling from the blue switch in Jabu Jabu's Belly to open the door without holding down the switch
-Damage Buffering
-Damaging Volvagia's second hitbox with an explosion while it is underground
-Passing through the back side of a one-sided collision (e.g. bridge clip, darunia's door, forest's falling ceiling)
-Attacking to collect or hit an object on the other side of a collision
-Twisted sidehops or backflips via siderolls or standing ESS shuffle
-Backflipping over Mido in the Lost Woods as adult
-Holding target to swim while sinking with iron boots

Banned Techniques:
-Infinite Sword Glitch
-Megaflip and megasidehop
-Extended Antigravity (e.g. unloading lower gerudo fortress)
-Momentary Antigravity (e.g. b1 skip)
-Ground jump
-Hoverboost
-All forms of superslide
-Hovering
-Going Out of Bounds (any area which is beyond the boundary walls of the map such as an outer seam, or any area which is exposed to the lowest void plane in the map.)
-Entrance point glitch (or other respawn point manipulation)
-Passing through collision from the front (i.e. clipping). Note that this includes passing through the falling spikes in shadow temple since they have been shown to be solid)
-Cutscene diving to sink into water
-Flame storage
-Item Manipulation (BA, RBA, GIM)
-Using collection delay to your advantage (e.g. early eyeball frog or gold scale. Delay happens naturally in many shops if you buy quickly, this is ok)

-Bottle Duplication
-Wrong warp
-Void warp
-Walking While Talking
-Causing a switch to remain pressed longer than it should
-Ocarina Items
-Z-slide
-A-slide
-Using restricted items (such as farore's wind in the overworld or ocarina in boss rooms)

-Unloading an actor which clearly should be loaded (e.g. actor glitch, unloading KZ's ice, overloading the graveyard or trials to remove graves or Gold Gauntlet monoliths)
-Dying to achieve anything other than a deathwarp
-Shielding damage midair to take Link out of a backflip or sidehop and into a normal airborne state. A.K.A. "Recoil Jump"
-Skipping text triggers via weapon swapping (e.g. owl skips and vine text skips in deku tree)
-Opening underwater chests while wearing the Iron Boots
-Damage boosting
-Touching misplaced or accidentally exposed loading zones (e.g. Early Jabu or Trials Skip)
-Skipping puzzles via damage invincibility
-Opening flaming treasure chests
-Skipping cutscenes by any means (e.g. voiding while the shadow bridge falls, exiting DC while exploding the wall, pulling ocarina to stop the tunic Goron from speaking)

Emulator-specific rules:
-You must use Project64 1.6 or 1.7. All other emulators and versions (such as Mupen64 and Project64 2.0+) are banned.
-You must use the default settings for emulation. (eg. Changing the graphics plugin to do GIM is not allowed)
-Tricks and glitches exclusive to 1.0/1.1 cannot be used on emulator to save time.
