On rules: The rules for this mode are not exhaustive, and do not mention anything which would typically be seen as against the rules in any game mode (save-scumming, console interaction, etc).  If at any point you question whether what you are doing is ok, or if you're simply not sure a rule above prohibits a certain action, then what you want to do is likely against the rules.  Do not cheat, you're only ruining the mode for yourself, and potentially others.

On {{ItemIcon|Burnt Cave Fish}}: Yes, it is possible to brick your save on this item.  As you need a specific quantity of them to acquire the {{ItemIcon|Clue Chasers Insignia}}.  If you happen to get caught out by item doubling, and end up with too many, then you are permitted to sell ''one'' of them, and only ''one'', and only ''after'' achieving at least 99% completion.  The completion check is to ensure you are being penalised for your mistake.  If you are caught out twice, game over.  It is therefore recommended you do not go for the {{PetIcon|Golden Golbin}} pet before doing this, and to not combat the {{MonsterIcon|Tentacle}} before Slayer.


Finally, no one person is the arbiter of this game mode.  If the prevailing view of the community playing this mode is that something is against the spirit of the challenge, then it is that view you should follow.

==Side Quest Recommendations==
Due to the extended length of some of the grinds in this mode, a lot of players have filled these with side quests.  Or secondary content that isn't necessary, but will further future goals, or make future content simpler.  This section lists a few of these, all combat focused, as well as the times you could be focusing on them.  Note that none of these will be simple side quests, they will all require proper consideration, because they will have an affect on your progress.
* Completing the {{ZoneIcon|Volcanic Cave}} before Astrology
* Completing the {{ZoneIcon|Infernal Stronghold}} before Slayer
* Completing {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} before Agility
