Hey guys. It's been on my mind lately seeing most Retro Games including JP have most of their timers start on the "START" screen on the main menu. I'm thinking it may be best to do it for JP1 and Rampage Edition as well. If you think about it, starting on the map screen seems a bit off because you are active to move the controls and pick whatever map you'd like depending on your route which sometimes happens during the run itself when the timer is on. For events like GDQ, which I'm trying hard to get these games in at the next event, it seems a bit smoother to have the timer start at menu like most games. Let me know your guys' thoughts. :)
Also it makes Aviary button spam much easier for the player to jump off the Pterodactyl at this point.
Not finished a good enough run of this yet to submit lol, but yeah I think the timer for this should start from pressing start seeing as the choice for which area to go to first is an important one
After talking with other runners including sk1pbase I think this is the best way to go so I'll be updating the rules. The timer now starts as soon as you press "START" on the main menu.
