RESULTS IN! POINTS HAVE ALL BEEN DOUBLE CHECKED AND FIXED

 

love how you put yourself over theft on round 6 even tho on the leaderboard you're second

 

Do you happen know if the ties accurately show who was the slightest bit faster or if it just doesn’t register anything past a hundredth of a second? I always assumed it didn’t register further; obviously it doesn’t display further.

 

idk lol i just sorted the numbers and it put me first

 

i am determined to beat cerasium on at least one of the rounds lol

 

im just gonna put it out there that im aware of 2 cuts on this track that could push winning time down to less than a minute. hope you guys are having fun

 

I was at 1:00.67 and overshot the last star on the heli.

 

You might be running low on time, we're pretty far in...

EDIT: If I had as much free time as I did during my peak on the site (like ~2019), I promise I wouldn't allow that to continue through every single round.

 

does thefts ghost rely on a glitcch to get the heli for that long? And if so, aren't glitches not allowed since last round didn't allow the mtb glitch?

I am going to hold off in following suite with ghosting it with the glitch, it's not the way the author intended the track to be played and that's how I would go about hosting this contest.

 

Vehicle glitch is a track exploit, as the track is designed to be played in a certain way, making changing the bike by reloading the page and holding down 'v' a huge advantage in a track, especially when ghosting it. The heli glitch is just a glitch in the game's system, Cerasium already has a featured ghost from using it, and so does Radium I believe. It involves going back to a checkpoint when you're JUST about to pick up the heli powerup (tell me if I'm wrong here). This then adds time to how long you can use the powerup. This requires skill sometimes to pull off and is quite handy, I wouldn't call this cheating though compared to vehicle glitch as it isn't as cheap. Btw, there is a reason why featured ghosts using the vehicle glitch are put in the "Other" category whilst heli glitch ghosts are not.

 

The reasoning behind the other glitch ban wasn't that its a built-in glitch, its that it's playing the track in a way that isn't intended by the author. Badger could have allowed mtb if he wanted but he didn't. Loge could have allowed more heli time, but he didn't.

 

from the POV of a trackmaker who has had two tracks butchered by the vehicle glitch, this ^^^^^^^ it's bs, annoying and track breaking, and if i made a trial track for the express purpose of a competition i would not want ppl using any 'glitch' on it. same goes for holding down v, i really dont see how these two cases are different
