Yes they will be. All times will be IGT. You can use a used file which has all the characters/upgrades to get the time as low as possible. Only for AVGN 1 tutorial you need to start from new in order to play it. As for the last level in each game, I think you have to wait for the cutscenes to start before the time is recorded, then you would just reset the game and show us proof of final time on the stage select.
If playing on a used file those times have to be lower than when you first entered the level in order to be accepted, unless you're playing these levels for the first time on the file. This only applies for the last levels of each game as the time is only updated if you beat it, as any other stage show you what time you get right after beating it.
Just a reminder to add a 0 to your milliseconds time. EX: submitting 43.54 will result as a 43.054 submission on the site. We'll use milliseconds for ILs only.
