Start time change

Hey guys. It's been on my mind lately seeing most Retro Games including JP have most of their timers start on the "START" screen on the main menu. I'm thinking it may be best to do it for this game and Rampage Edition as well. I believe it would only add an additional 3 seconds to the run if we all agree on it which I'll do since I'm a moderator now. Let me know your guys' thoughts. :)

I don't remember why I timed on character control. Habit I guess? I see no strong case for one way or the other so I'm fine with whatever takes consensus.

Thanks for the reply. I just see most Retro games starting the timer on the "START" screen and I guess the fact that it gives you one map load description without being timed like the other stages that are included in the run. Also I hope to see you running this game again. Your playthrough is what got me into speedrunning this game :)

I think it’s a good idea seeing as you have to mash skip cutscenes after clicking start, but really I’m easy either way

After talking with other runners including BoosterShane I think this is the best way to go so I'll be updating the rules. The timer now starts as soon as you press "START" on the main menu. That adds an additional 3 seconds to the runs with cutscene loading time skips. Thanks for giving your feedback on here guys :)
