why does timing start early for the puzzle rush category
2 years ago

in the puzzle rush category it is stated that timing starts the first frame you see "GO!" on your screen, but you clearly can't make any pieces move until it fades away. So should the timing start the first frame "GO!" disappears?

The run usually starts as soon as the first input is possible or the run is started. In this case, the run is started when you press the start button. However, it would be unfair to have the first 3 seconds of the run not be doing anything. Therefore, it starts at the GO. In addition, It is hard to see exactly when the first input (first move played) is possible to be made.
