[George Nishimura]

When does the time start? When the pedestal is lit or when the ball first enters the field?

This is actually really interesting data that would be cool to catalogue and compare against other regionals.

There would be outliers of course - cycles where they change strategy midway (ie miss a few HGs and go LG) but with a large enough sample size and maybe exclude it to elimination matches, we might get fascinating insights like 'the truss is overrated' as suggested by your data.
