A question about the category: do you actually have the stones/medallion you collected prior to BIT upon collecting the game? Or is the requirement just "collect the item for completing each dungeon at least once, even if you lose it later"? This is something that might need to be clarified in the description of the category (and which hasn't really come up before because the game isn't intended to have you lose stones and medallions after collecting them, and there isn't normally a reason to remove them).
Great question! I thought I had included verbage in the author notes to discuss this, but looking back at it, I'm not sure I did. You do not maintain the Spiritual Stones after BiT. Moreover, the dungeons that you complete revert back to an uncompleted state. The community for this game decided that the definition for this category only required beating the dungeons and obtaining the dungeon reward, but maintaining that completion status and keeping those items in your inventory throughout would not be required. This was mostly in order to allow the BiT glitch because it's just so cool and interesting. The MST (Medallions/Stones/Trials) category bans this glitch and requires keeping the dungeons rewards. Overall that category has a much more conservative ruleset, comparatively.
