    The Grammar Police weren't founded until 1997, the same year AOL dialup internet invented dubstep.

    Regarding your post, "Old Sport," where did you read the phrase "less players"? I did see the phrase "less people." And in your first paragraph, you end it with, "I'm an English teacher. I can't help it..." What can't you help, being an English teacher or a dbag for having to point out an error? And you end that first graph with ellipses, which is fine, but I believe you left off your period. ...
    Second paragraph, I would have loved to have seen that comma before, not after, your end quotation mark for "amount." I believe you got it right, however, in your third paragraph — which is a tad inconsistent.
    And do keep in mind, English isn't everyone's first language.
    Peace out, yo. And, for the record, I'm the real dbag. (insert image of me dropping the microphone and walking off.)

    The MP cup ladders are nigh impossible. The Great Wall Cup was a great scam. Easy first 3 cups and entice others with the final prize of 4 Extra Tanks. But make the last event nigh impossible unless one stays up without sleep playing.

    Same with this ladder event. I'm racing in a 2X boosted McLaren P1 almost fully Pro around upper 1600's but keeping getting paired exclusively with ET fully boosted Transmontanas (I thought only 20 people won the car).I just satisfy myself taking out my anger with my Dezir-knocking people down when they vote for long tracks.

    Oh, snap! It's a battle. This just turned into 8Mile for nerds! Ok, ok... my turn... gimme a beat...

    The word "less" is wrong for both.

    Since the lighthearted nature of the post has flown over your head like a 747... pick one.

    Yet, clearly, you are not off yours. (RIMSHOT!) :D

    In an informal setting... like this one... ellipses are frequently used to simulate the speech patterns of a verbal conversation to convey extra information.

    For example, in the previous sentence, the use of ellipses around the phrase "like this one" simulates a speech pattern that, in a verbal conversation, would communicate the idea that you are being told something you either do, or at least should, already know.

    On the other hand, there is no stylistic advantage in using the adjective "less" to modify the noun "people" (or "players").


    Oops! Apparently I turned British for that sentence. :confused: Point for you.

    Well, yeah... Not everyone takes correction as an indictment of intelligence.

    No argument here. (insert image of me raising my hands in triumph and then tripping over the mic cord)

    Stuck "Error 15" unable to upload the result of climb the ladder cup - already happened twice tonight. Anyone else on Android having those? At least the fuel get "refunded" when I restart the app.

    Happened to me four times on iOS earlier today. The only good thing is that no fuel bars were lost.

    Wait what? I lost 4 fuel bars for that though. I'm not sure if you need to restart the app to get it back...since I didn't do that.

    Sigh. Right now I'm stuck at 5300+ points. I would like to say it is hard to find players, but I believe it is the opposite. The game doesn't match me with many players with lower points so I assume it is trying to match me with higher point players. Due to that, I'm forced to play with 3-5 people on the iOS as it won't match me with available players with points that are much lower than mine.

    Heck, a guy even quit during the race making it worst. -.- At least finish the race and not waste the 4 fuel bar man. I get only 10+ points in a 3 person race for 1st place (the 4th guy disconnected).

    I'm hoping to at least make it to 6400 points by the end of the day so I can get over it in two days. Maybe 6000 points is more realistic with how the situation is right now.

    I'm pretty sure it is, watch my air speed when doing it compared to my normal top speed
    I'm very sure it's faster than the take blue, stay up, drop down barrel go back up triple to flat ramp, or the take blue, drop down, take 2nd barrel and go back up to flat ramp
    But the way I did it is really hard, I could only execute it every once in a while...
    You have to wish your car completes the barrel quickly in the first barrel or else you'll wreck
    Also it only works with slow cars, even the Tesla felt a bit fast for this route :/

    Aghhhh I missed the top 100 for the tech cards, because I was one token away from the specialist kit... (ads didn't work)
    And now I'm gonna miss the tech cards for the apex cup too cuz I have no mid techs to pro my p1...

    I didn't restart either -- it showed 4 fuel bars used after exiting the (bad) race but when I entered a new race, it didn't use any more fuel bars.

    (On iOS, there's also another bug with the fuel bar display immediately after you restart the app -- it shows more fuel bars than you actually have. As soon as you enter a new race, though, the display gets corrected.)

    Is Public Enemy No1 the same guy as Public Enemy? I'm still relatively new here so I don't know exactly who is who.

    I'm surprised at his time though. I don't know if the time differs a little between versions, but he should be able to get around 53 seconds or less with his 1686 SRGTR and triple boosted. What happened? 0.0

    By the way, am I doing good for my rank? My fastest time is 56.xxx with a 1589 Sesto Elemento boosted as seen below. Obviously I still can't beat all those near-pro P1s and SRGTRs. I keep on getting matched with people with superior cars (look below), but I guess that's just how it is. I'm trying to get points even if I can't win 90% of the time now. I can't even catch up to a near-pro P1 unboosted :/ I'm still amazed at the amount of people trying to crash me despite having a superior car (like a 1686 SRGTR). Honestly, you can still win even if you don't wreck me. The only thing you're getting out of this is pushing me way back down and making me lose horribly. I swear I'll wreck everyone one day just for the sake of it.

    Great fun tonight, only 50% of the multi-player race actually register the result. Such BS.
