The current timing is from the start of the timer to the popup, but there seems to be no reason it cannot be the time from timer start to timer stop (ie, the time that shows at the end) A few reasons this is better than the current timing: 1.) would make timing a run and uploading it far easier 2.) would make the time more consistent and rely less on rng (sometimes the end time takes more or fewer frames to pop up, while the time shown at the end is consistent.) 3.) The current runners compare times purely through the end time, with actually timing the run just being a nuisance that we take care of later.

Especially since there are no submitted runs to the leaderboard yet, this is the perfect time to change the timing again so it is more reasonable.
