Just making sure, but getting extra jump height by shooting yourself with an arrow is against the rules, right?

If you are using it to trespass something, it is prohibited. Other means like maybe u thought of a shortcut to get the wool or to speed urself(which is impossible without 'punch' enchant) is allowed probably. Depends on how you use it. Record it with a proper run. They will tell u if it's allowed or not.

I asked Tahg in IRC a few days ago and he said using the arrow to push you up in any circumstance is not allowed

can you explain why that is since it was said any shortcuts are allowed and there is no modification of the game or map needed.

also the direction it knocks you is random and it doesn't rely on client glitching. nor is it game breaking as if used in a game breaking way there are other modifications needed.

Understandable. Since the bow and arrows are there for the archery specifically. Is the fastest still 11:10? Oo

Must be some kind of wireless transmitter/receivers or something cheaty again.
yeah, I used the wireless remote on the top of the skull at spawn. entered the same numbers as the other person who got a stupid time and bang, just got 1:30 with that strat.
Note: I did use MCEdit to teleport myself to top.

As long as it's clear enough to tell it was a single run with no hacks, that might be ok. I'd prefer 480p tho if you can manage it. Keep in mind thought that the best time is 11:10 though, so you'll have to beat that.

You are completely skipping the challenge when you do that. In the case of archery, it currently allows you to mess with the whole map.

I thought shortcuts were encouraged though and even though it can be used in archery to cheat those runs arent allowed. however I use it in my run as a shortcut for an area that doesn't ruin the map just lets me complere an area faster.

If you want I can send you a video of the spot I use it.

We will not enter discussion on any matters of the contest. If you wish to submit a run we will however we will inform you if it is valid.
