So that's it, guys. The 26th round is over, here are the results. I'll be updating the spreadsheet very soon. I hope you guys liked the track and the idea for the bonus round. This time the rest of the ORG team was pretty busy so I had to pretty much figure the whole thing for the round in like 2 days. I'm happy with the overall outcome of the track , ghosts and the feedback for the track, so I think things ended up going well overall. Yeah, some people struggled with the tunnel or the bomb part, but I think that overall it was a decent ride that wasn't too hard or too easy. We had another great draw between RedOrBlue and Cerasium, a great ghost from RadiumRC and much more, like the good results from RubeGoldberger, CHARREDLIZARD21, Sidewalk and a_drain for example. DrChill did good as usual as well and I liked the performances from TheMemeBiker and LuckyMp-3 as well, that got close to the top 10 in the track. Good stuff!

PS: The players below are sadly being eliminated from the contest:

- Blank_Guy

Hey, guys. What's up? I updated the ORG spreadsheet. We don't have that many big changes, but we had some interesting stuff going on. In first place we have Cerasium, that has a good lead over the 2nd place and is close to reach the Grandmaster rank. It's a tough mission, but it's now very likely to happen at some point in those last rounds of the contest. We have only 9 rounds to go, so any mistake can cost a lot for the players, but he has a strong lead. In 2nd place we have RedOrBlue again. After being 3rd place for a week, RedOrBlue came back to the 2nd place and to the Master rank, with a great performance in the round. He took the 1st place tied with Cerasium, but ended up getting more points than him, with shortened the distance between the two. Good stuff. In 3rd place we have DrChill. Despite finishing in last place in his match on the last round, he still has a solid lead over the 4th place in the contest, and can reach the Master rank next week if he manages to secure a win. In 4th place, there's me. I managed to do a great performance in my own track (just like DrChill did in his) so I shortened the difference between us a little bit, but I'm still in 4th place overall in the contest. In 5th place we have Chaos-Fallen, that is back to the Diamond rank. Despite not doing his best round in this past week he managed to still do good enough to get in the Diamond rank again. Everyone that completed the track got a win, so it's hard to talk about win streaks now, but I'll give some shoutouts. RadiumRC is killing it with great ghosts every week, with 4 wins in a row, no losses so far and is already in 11th place overall. Urabni also has 4 wins in a row and AfterImage is doing a solid recovery with 5 wins in a row. With 3 wins in a row we have DrChill, fuzzyman8, Selesele, TheMemeBiker, Skriper and RocknRoll, so shoutout to you guys, keep killing it! And of course, with a ghost in the last minutes of the round Silver_bird7 managed to not break his legendary win streak, with 10 wins in a row. Yeah, he finished in last place on his match and went down one place in the leaderboard, but he still has a strong score that makes him able to fight for the top placements in the contest. Let's see how he is going to do in the Platinum rank. Also, shoutout to CHARREDLIZARD21 for a great ghost this week and 1st place on his match, and to RubeGoldberger for killing it with a great ghost, just like last week. Full leaderboard below:

From what I could check, you got a win on Weeks 23 and 24, took a break for Week 25 and got a win for Week 26.

 

I checked it now and you are actually right, lol. Last time you lost a match was still in June, lol. The thing is that you were in a break for some time and then we had the GBC3, so I ended up missing it. Your last loss was on Week 17, back in June. You won the match on Week 18, then you went on a break for Weeks 19, 20, 21 and 22, then we had the GBC3, then you won your matches on weeks 23 and 24, took a break for Week 25 and won your match on Week 26. So yeah, with the wins on weeks 18, 23, 24 and 26 you have won matches for "4 weeks in a row", I'll change that in the spreadsheet.

 

Yes, you can. You have 2 challenges to use until Week 30. After that, your challenges will be reseted to 2 and you'll be able to make 2 more challenges until the end of the contest in Week 35. Since you are in the Bronze rank, you can only challenge people from the Bronze rank or above. You can't challenge people that are already on a challenge or on a break. You can find the players that are on challenge on the main post of this thread: https://community.freeriderhd.com/threads/org-challenges-and-breaks.13435/

The thread above is the one where we are announcing challenges and breaks now, so after you check the main post to see if the player you plan to challenge is not on a challenge or break you can say "I challenge *insert name of the player here*". You can also see who is available checking the spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...20R764bzB0EAYhMdPwpcoE8UF4/edit#gid=245188596). If their name is with a white font, they are on a break, if it is with a purple font, they are on a challenge. If that's not the case, they are available for a challenge. In your case, you can challenge anyone from the ranks Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond and Master. The highest score and rank the challenged player is, the most points you'll get in case of a win, and the least points you will lose in case of a loss. My advice would be challenging the highest placed player you think you can beat. Any more questions let me know, if the main post of the ORG Challenges and Breaks and the main post of the main ORG thread are not enough.

We kind of made a recommendation (not 100% a rule, but it kinda is), that ORG players shouldn't make tracks for ORG. Sometimes we'll pick a track that was made by an ORG player, but we usually don't do that and try to avoid having ORG players making new tracks for the contest. But we had a few exceptions. For example, Coated_Badger had a track ready for ORG that he was planning to use for a bonus round, before he left the ORG team. Since pretty much everyone won points on that round, we didn't think it was really unfair. I made 2 tracks for ORG as well, both for bonus rounds. In one of the cases, I worked with Madara in one track and published it, but it was also a bonus round where most people won points, and at the end of the day, we had decided that we would try to always make the tracks for the bonus rounds to not let anyone have any advantage on the track, but Madara and I were the only ones available from the team for the task on that week, so my help was needed. I made the most recent bonus round as well, but let's be honest, my match was against Cerasium, RedOrBlue and DrChill, so I'm pretty sure that even though it was my track I didn't have that much advantage on it. The track was finished like a few hours before the round started, so it's not like I had weeks of practice on the track. My first deathless ghost was made after the track was published. I just played the necessary to complete the track and get the ride right. Since Coated_Badger created the ORG and was once in the team and I'm on the team now, and I was the only one available to make a track last week, the most relevant case of ORG players making a track for ORG was the one from DrChill. He was working on a really good track and asked us if he could use the track for the ORG. We weren't sure at first, since the matches are mostly made in a random way, which could make it a bit unfair for his opponent, depending on who it was. But he said he would take a break on that week, so it wouldn't be unfair. We then accepted to use his track for ORG and since it was a new track, we decided to make a bonus round on it. It was a "4 player group match" bonus round, so if DrChill joined he would be facing RedOrBlue, Cerasium and I. Since it was like 1 or 2 days before the start of the round and we already knew who his opponents would be, we asked RedOrBlue and Cerasium if they thought it would be unfair if DrChill ghosted the track and they were fine with it, and so was I. So we mentioned that to DrChill and he ended up joining that round as well and taking the 1st place on the track, which was quite surprising since we messed up his original route finding a shortcut in the round, but he managed to adapt and make a really solid ghost. So yeah, usually, we don't let ORG players make new tracks for ORG, but there's some exceptions, whenever they make sense and everyone is cool with it (and the track is cool, honestly).
