There's definitely a bug in the timing. I feel like it's related to the previous round. Whenever I finished a round early, the next round timed out early.
Also, it should be revamped to always run the full time and award points to the shortest regex. I regularly won rounds with entries like `foo|bar|...` Easy to write, and requiring almost no skill.
