Normally I don't pay much attention to the other lane when staging, I light the pre stage & stage when I'm ready and then just stare at my bulb until it comes on.

I got in a pretty good burn down once because this dude was lipping off all night about how he never stages first, EVER. I happened to get paired up with him later and decided since I'm on alcohol and he wasn't, I'll just sit there till he goes in. Really pissed the starter off too.

I don't even remember who finally went in first or who won. I just remember I let that guy get to me. Never again. What do I care if the other guy stages first or not?
