The discovery of several immensely valuable new tricks has opened up the serious possibility that this time could at some point in the future be reduced to below 4 hours 30 minutes, or even below 4 hours dead. However, some of these tricks are of extremely dubious legality - they cross the line between "trick" and "glitch" and often involve passing outside the nominal "bounds of the game", something which is against SDA's (admittedly flexible) [http://speeddemosarchive.com/rules.html rules]. Pending the definitive classification of each trick into "allowed" and "not allowed" by SDA's administrator, [[Radix]], there will probably arise a second variety of OoT runs which ''does'' allow all the questionable glitches. As yet no such run has been attempted as more tricks are still being found at a startling rate. | The discovery of several immensely valuable new tricks has opened up the serious possibility that this time could at some point in the future be reduced to below 4 hours 30 minutes, or even below 4 hours dead.
