What's the official timing?

When does timing start and stop, frame-wise?

I just 'timed' a run I just made starting from when the name select screen starts to disappear to start, to when Link disappears from the stairs exiting from the boss fight to end. But I don't know if that's how y'all are usually doing it since it's not in the rules. :)

The ruleset here need a update. I got the rules from ZSR when I started to play the game. I will post the ZSR rules here and that is what we are using for now. _

All versions (1.0/1.1) are allowed.

Allowed platforms:

-Game Boy -Game Boy Color -Game Boy Advance -Super Game Boy 2 -Gamecube Game Boy Player -Bizhawk -Gambatte revision 537 or higher -BGB version 1.4.3 or higher

Banned platforms: -Super Gameboy -All other emulators

For all categories, timing starts at file select and ends on the white screen fade after beating Nightmare and climbing the stairs.

U+D/L+R is banned in all categories.

Stealing items from the shop is allowed.

"Warpless" means that glitches that warp Link unnaturally are banned. These include the select warp glitch, the doghouse glitch, and any trick that causes Link to bypass normal screen transition boundaries.

Thanks. Sounds like I picked the right points then.
