I feel like because there's no time-saving or way to skip the cutscene, we should start at -1:08, since that's when you gain control of your character after hitting new. I think it would just look better.

I'm gonna try some "Fastest Death" meme runs and I'm starting on -1:08 for them so yeah, I think better to start from control of character.

I suppose starting from gaining control would be better, although it's hard to tell exactly what frame the player gains control. Something better might be starting from the first movement of the player's camera--so you could like, sit idle for a bit and timing would only start when you first move the player/the camera.

Also fastest death sounds interesting, might add a category/misc. category for it, since this game is kind of limited on category ideas lol.

There will always be a few frames missing since it's pretty much impossible for the human body to do two things like that at exactly the same time, but in the 100 runs I've done, almost every one unless I screw up and don't mash my keyboard for the first 15 seconds (when the "Press Any Button" prompt comes up) you will gain control at exactly 1:08. The good thing is that since we're not at Super Mario Bros levels where only a few milliseconds can be shaved off at a time, those milliseconds don't matter, and if it ever does get to that annoying point where milliseconds actually do matter, you can just run the timer long and count the frames in a video editor to get it down to the EXACT millisecond, but again, I don't think this game will ever reach that level, the game is too long for that and relies on the unreliable method of holding down your left click which will always have some error.

If you want, I'd be happy to mod the game and add some fun categories I think of. Fastest death is a 10 second run right now because I start at -1:08, I also want to do a run where you just die to the fire, and possibly a run where you do the whole game backwards, starting from the final picture and making your way to the first.

I'd upload a new LiveSplit that starts from -1:08 because I noticed you've set the times back by 1:08, but for some reason LiveSplit doesn't like me taking 1:08 and the fourth split creates some conflict and the split time ends up lower than the segment time. So I won't be updating any of my splits, I'll just upload a new blank split that starts at -1:08 for people to use.
