To confirm,

For any category, time starts when hitting the "START" Fire Barrel after starting a new Competition Mode run. Sorry for any misunderstandings. Feel free to adjust your character's style and/or Board style!

Stop time is when you either cross the finish line in Snow Ruins/Dive Into the Cave OR when you retire the final race in your respective difficulty. Just in case we find glitches that change what races are skipped/how they're done, it'll be good to have that in place.

Quick question: Is anyone actually running this? Just yesterday I got my old PS1 from the basement and startet replaying this gem, but this page seems to be utterly empty.

Does that mean that I can submit the first run and be king for one day? :D

I also found this super weird and was about to ask the same thing. It’s really detailed and well laid out yet there’s zero runs recorded. I used to love this game and am considering getting back into it.

Now that I actually submitted my first run (approval pending, White Resort only), I realize that this "the run starts on hitting 'START'" can only apply to competition mode, right? The level leaderboard should use the ingame time.
