I wont get those bombchus, as I said above, I CAN do the bomb hover with only bombs now. 
Yautja, I suggest you redo your Deku Tree segment because my run got rejected due to the Skulltula skip.
SDA Forum
In programming ways you aren't leaving the room in the skulltulla trick; it's not really like MP's secret worlds. If nothing else, it seems most comparable to the barrier skip in Ganon's Castle; what's the meaningful difference between those two tricks? For that matter though, what's the difference between the barrier skip and the secret worlds? It all seems very similar to me; a clear line on standard rules, separate catagory, and flat illegal would be nice.
Hmm, that might be a site suggestion. At the very least, there should be clear communication on glitch rulings before runs are submitted. The forum discussion suggested in the rules clearly failed here as everyone equated it with the barrier skip in terms of legality. Rulings on glitches before submission are somewhat essential to runners of games like OoT where the question of which glitches you use is nothing but the question of where the line is.

with secret worlds, you step in areas outside the regular areas you can normally be on.
in the barrier skip, you are still inside an intended area of the game, even with no textures and all.
it's a shitty minor detail but minimal things like these kill runs (skipping the Echo visor to save time in mp2 just requires like 15 seconds of SW use, yet that is forbidden due to the SW itself. that's comparable to the skulltula skip in deku tree)

So, didn't you already have a deku tree without the skip recorded yautja? I believe you did. Just use that instead for your deku tree segment, right (unless something else doesn't match up)?
Yeah I have, but I wont use that, I'll just redo the deku tree (again) using the golden skulltula to do the moat skip.
And about the boundary violations... I'm going to make videos of all tricks that I use that might be a boundary violation, show them to Radix just to be sure. I'm talking stuff like Gerudo Training Ground as a kid.

heh, I don't think that is what the problem was Yauty. Fluffy went into the void in his segment when he did that trick. Let me go check yours again to see if it's okay.
It can't be, I did the same thing.
Edit: Oh, you are refering to the gerudo trick, if so I don't think it it a boundary violation... I hope you're right.

What still bothers me is that I can't do this. I'm not really outside the map or in a void, am I? This trick would save some sweet time in my run and I hope someone can tell me why it isn't allowed.

Yeah, just because it is black space when the intended textures have been loaded means it is probably ruled as 'the void' even if there is water there. IDK I don't make the rulings.
Oh and Yautja, mind hooking me up w/ a link to that Deku segment that is in question so I can check it out?

Definately a boundary violation like fluffy's. :-/
============================================
Okay, so this is what my next segment will look like:
- Ice Cavern
- Zora's Fountain [Heart Piece]
- Zora's Domain [Zora's Tunic, Golden Skulltula #47]
- Zora's River
- Lost Woods [Odd Mushroom]
- Goron City [Goron Tunic, Golden Skulltula #35]
- Death Mountain Trail
- Kakariko Village
- Potion Shop [Odd Potion]
It's a good thing I wont need any bombchus yet.

Progress report.
Segment 34 done. There were a few minor mistakes that cost me 5 seconds tops, so overall it's a very good segment. Oh and I now have 58 skulltulas, with same amount of hearts/hp's.
Now I need to sit down and try to plan the forest temple. I'm pretty sure it will be done in 3 segments.
