    No.
    Exactly.
    We took another look at the featured trickghosts once, so I feel like this first case probably won't happen, we could only add more. Unless the standards for trickghosts increase at an insane rate.

    Unfeaturing trickghosts isn't impossible, in my time here I unfeatured 2 (One from myself and one from Ninjasparkour), but it's never due to new ghosts made in the track, but due to the standards itself. Mine was only unfeatured because of the high use of slow motion and not being impressive enough, and the Ninjasparkour one was kinda short and not better than a lot of ghosts we rejected. mR..A also unfeatured a few, most from himself, but it's a rare thing to happen.

    I don't know, and that's something that is hard to say. i would have to watch some of them again to get a clear answer, but I think it would be better to point out the best than the "least good" ones.

    I already sent both of my reviews for those ghosts to Eryp, but while I feel like both of them have potential, there's still a few stuff that could be improved on them, especially on yours, Cork. Like your ghost is longer than Cerulean's, which is great, but I feel like you spent too much time on 2 wheels not doing that much stuff. Your tricks were on point, very well-executed, but I feel like for a ghost this long it lacked some more tricks. Great flips, though. It's still not decided, but I feel like using the track better to create cooler transitions and adding some tricks are good aspects to improve. But it's already a good one.
    You have a bit of time in 2 wheels without much stuff as well, but not as much, so the ghost worked a bit better in my opinion. Transitions were great, didn't waste too much time on the same part, but kept going towards the star with cool tricks (like wheeling while going to the end), so I feel like this one was one of your best trickghost suggestions. I feel like it's not as long as Cork's ghost, but it's more packed with tricks, so it's a cool suggestion as well. I feel like we will have a proper feedback when we make the update, after Eryp finishes reviewing the ghosts. But both suggestions are great and have and might be in the discussion for a feature.

    or he's just too lazy to write 2 sentences himself, so he copy/pated yours idk... I feel like that is something I would do if someone else's words were generic enough

    Yes, lol. But it's definitely not a feature, though. But yeah, if you can complete the track just holding up and it even says "hold up", I feel like you could consider this an auto cut.

    I bet you could get under 60 seconds if you optimize it perfectly. Then it might be a feat but it would have to be flawless.

    hey everyone, was scrolling through the featured ghosts on the first page in hopes of stealing one and obtaining my first feat and saw FreeLander2's auto cut on this track:
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/52341/r/freelander2
    attempted about 500 times, and eventually got a time 0:00.03 seconds slower than FreeLander2's.
    https://www.freeriderhd.com/t/52341/r/madmaxx21
    i won't attempt the track any longer as i have given up, but this definitely gives me hope that one day, i could be able to get a featured ghost (i've found that i really enjoy doing auto cuts, however i have much to improve in every aspect of my ghosting skills)
    this featured ghost is one of the most simple to replicate i've seen, and i give massive props to FreeLander2 for discovering the cut and executing it almost perfectly. all i did was mimic his moves, which makes him far superior in every way.
    if anyone would like to give it a shot, go for it. wish you the best of luck.

    A trick ghost would ensure that it wouldn't get stolen :thumbsup: unless standards go up again, or the track is deleted for some reason.
    And improvements in your ghosting skill take time, but they definitely can be done, and once you improve, you definitely feel it :) I have slightly improved since I last played, yet I didnt practice much, it came with time. So even if you don't practice heavily, you are likely to improve with time, so just keep at it :thumbsup:

    spent like 3 minutes writing that, haha. just wanted to help out, if i was that close to tying/beating FreeLander2's time, one of the greats can definitely do it.
    indeed, i'm definitely gonna try to keep ghosting and improve
