stevie... wrong.

the timer goes the moment you start MOVING.

if you sit on the line for 10 seconds, then go, those 1st 10 seconds mean NOTHING to the time.

hence why it's advised to NOT try and go on the green if you're wanting toput in a good time... sit there, take your time and go when you're ready. nobody takes a blind bit of notice of the response times anyway tbh
