I would like to add that although the skip does not start time on island 1, with the ant/slug island 1 spawn you can finish island 1 normally in about 2-5 seconds with an additional item. I think it's smart to disallow larger IGT things like this from happening in the future but I think we might be reaching a point where island 1 skip is not fully optimized (damage shot, aura shot, gemstone, etc island 1 makes a greater difference in the run's time vs saving 5 seconds in the beginning)

I prematurely stopped the timer at 43.33 seconds, and at exactly 1:00.21 minutes I reached 1 million points, since the timer stopped I would think its invalid, but I did stream it and can overlay a timer down to the frame that I reach 1 million points. Will this be accepted or should I try again? I can also send a link to the original video for proof
