Re: timed puzzle timer starts at 0:01

In the last couple of days, I noticed that my timed puzzle timer always started at 0:01 instead of 0:00, which makes especially my 4*4 times a lot slower than they really are.
Has this error something to do with bad internet access, or is it something that can be fixed?
I think it's been a feature/bug of all times.
The timer above the puzzle is updated every half second.
Only at the first update the puzzle is shown, so you always lose half a second at the start (!)
This means that if you're handy with javascript, you could've hacked the page so you don't lose that first half second.
Because of rounding issues, the gap between shown seconds can be half a second (I recorded video of the process,
and noted the times when the load is started, puzzle becomes visible, & seconds change for the first 10 seconds).
I've changed it now so the puzzle becomes visible as soon as possible, and the timer is updated 4 times a second.
I'll make the change at midnight tonight (to make sure the change happens at the same time for everyone).
edit: forgot yesterday
, will try for this evening (Fri -> Sat)
