Sorry SupSuper, I didn't read the thread properly and only sent in the Goontrack 2 replay. I've sent the Bonus track replay to the e-mail now if it isn't too late.

I didn't get around to competing in the last couple tracks because of life and other poo poo, but it was fun racing against everybody! :) Can't wait to see how I fared even with the penalty times.

Same. I got a chance to take a last minute trip to a Caribbean island for the long weekend and somehow that won out over grinding out times on the last two tracks. Sucks when life gets in the way of video games.

Seriously though, it was a good run this year and I'm glad I got to participate for most of it. Thanks a bunch to everyone that helped put this together! Now get the final times posted so I can see where I finished.

Don't worry, difficult decisions like this, agonizing as they might be, help forging your character. You're a better man now.

Ah so that's why submissions were at their lowest, I thought it was just because it was a goontrack. :v:

Anyways Goontrack 2 results are up, I'll try and get the bonus times and final standings this weekend.

I really hope the replay shows him pulling a decent time but stopping in front of the finish line for a full two minutes.

I would be okay with this. It's already bad enough to get the lowest time, without having such a crazy outlier.

I spent way too much time on the bonus track to fall short but I wouldn't be surprised if it comes down to that. I'll be content with any place I end up in but clearly I want to get into the Top 10 as well although thats obviously going to be hard after you completely demolished me in GT2.

So may the better driver win.

Ok the Trackmania elders and I have had a meeting, and we have decided to open an exception to the golden rule:

If you miss a round, a time will be assigned to you that is equal to the slowest time +5%. If the time is over twice as long as the second-slowest time, than the second-slowest time is used instead.

Yay! I caused a rule change!:downs:

It was just a super :effort: run. I think I only ran it the first two days of the last week, intending to get a better time, but that never happened.

Also it's a little weird that everyone is misspelling my name.

We regret to inform you that, due to your recent performance, you have been demoted to Space Janitor. Your company-provided Space Mop can be found in the storage area that previously contained your personal belongings.
Surely there's an award for fastest participant with one-or-more missed submissions. It makes for a wordy trophy engraving but I'll treasure it nonetheless. This was a great competition, thanks for putting it on!

Hey no beating me to the punch. :mad:

Anyways season's over, here are the final results:



Congratulations to AtomicSX for winning the season, getting first at the last minute and even forcing Entropist to play through his sick track to retain his smug.
And congrats to Ghetto Wizard, Hiilai and everyone else who participated! (special thanks to those who stuck around til the end ;)) Stay tuned as I'll still be posting new videos on this thread.

Good job CVE, I focused on the goontrack because these last weeks I couldn't afford to try that ten minutes abomination much. You were ahead for most of the tournament anyway and goontracks are as gimmicky as the bonus track for gaining positions.

Edit: and you saved me :10bux: anyway , I'm happy.

Bonus Track bumped me up 3 places :D

I guess 33rd isn't bad for a first try and missing half the tracks.

Canyons would be pretty fun. Drift like there's no tomorrow.

I'm deeply amazed that my terrible bonus track performance wound up placing so high. But hey, it let me achieve my goal of 10th place or under!

Can't wait for the next season, and I'll be eagerly watching out for this season's videos. Thanks for continuing to hold these tournaments, they're the only thing that convinces me to break out of lurking-mode around here.
