The way the rule reads right now is: "Timer starts once space bar is pressed in the first cut scene. Timer ends once you reach level 10. After the run's completion open the legacy pane to confirm no legacy perks were used."

"Once space bar is pressed in the first cutscene" implies that starting the cutscene is not when timing starts; this means you could sit there for 5 minutes in order to save 5+ seconds which doesn't make sense.

Also heard reports that the cutscene loads at different rates initially for different people, which is a problem for comparability. It's inevitable for lag and less powerful computers to likely lose time at every computer, but the very start of the run can at least be fixed.

As such I'm going to change the start time to first action input so you can mash through the first cutscene, and then timing will start when your character starts moving or if you open your inventory for the first time or legacy or anything.

Players who have submitted times can feel free to re-enter their PBs with updated timings (since this saves ~5 seconds each run) or leave their times as is. LMK if you have a problem with this change in rules.

that is a good rule change, also i noticed that cut scenes load faster on second tries, so i advice any one with low end systems to always do a practice run before going for a pb because cut scenes will load almost instantly
