Help, please. When I tested this, immediately after I pressed A to start, it also started @WOODS, without the option to go to @START2 can you guys tell me how to fix?

Started my first 'game.' It's a text adventure, so it requires a bit of imagination if you want to see pictures.

I just got this, and I'm wondering how long it'll take to learn BASIC. I'm not in a rush, I just want to get into some sorta RPG and maybe even a puzzle.
