Ocarina of Time
Show Rules
-Saving and resetting to change Link's position (savewarping) is allowed
-Dying and continuing to change Link's position (deathwarping) is allowed
-Time ends at the start of the Ganon death cutscene
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
Allowed Techniques:
-Power Crouch Stabbing
-Roll invincibility
-Jumpslashing in mid-air for more distance
-Shield dropping
-Using broken deku stick
-Rolling from the blue switch in Jabu Jabu's Belly
-Damage boosting
-Getting on top of the falling spike trap in the Shadow Temple
-Damage Buffering
-Placing bombs on lava pits to damage Volvagia
-Skip talking to the owl by switching weapons
-Opening underwater chests while wearing the Iron Boots
-Backflipping onto the falling ceiling in the Forest Temple
-Passing through the back of the door to Darunia's room
-Attacking through a wall, block, or red ice
-Opening flaming treasure chests

While many of the most obvious and useful glitches are listed here, several other glitches exist. If something questionable is not explicitly listed as allowed, it's probably banned.
General
- Timing starts when selecting "Yes" (or equivalent) on the file select screen.
- When game completion is required, timing ends on first frame of any cutscene that naturally occurs after final hit on Ganon.
- If defeating Ganon, this is the first frame of the final blow cutscene
- If warping into the credits, this is the first frame of the fade in cutscene (i.e no visible hud, no dialog boxes)
- When running on Wii Virtual Console, only unmodified wads of NTSC 1.2 J, NTSC 1.2 U, or PAL 1.1 Wii are allowed.
- Using savestates (e.g. Wii U Virtual Console) is banned.
Emulator Specific Rules
- Runs performed on an emulator are not valid candidates for verification.
- You must use Project 64 1.6 or Project 64 1.7. All other emulators are banned.
- You must use the default settings for emulation.
- Tricks or glitches exclusive to 1.0/1.1 cannot be used.
