I just fell of the map for the time vs. LALeaf by going too high. Missed the jump on the "round and round" map, and it bounced off the bumper at some crazy angle and shot right into the sky.
How goes round 2, everybody? I'm early-final-lap in Desert Dash, first place and almost lapping second place Fluffmyster. Late-final-lap in Bumper Beware, first place and a lap and a half ahead of second+third (GusTavToo slightly ahead of Fluffmyster and next to shoot) Late-second-lap in W, first place but only a shot or two ahead of 2nd+3rd (GusTavToo slightly ahead of Fluffmyster and next to shoot). I have had my way with jump shots in this round. Haven't missed one.
We're getting close! SomethingWitty takes a turn a day usually but hasn't been active for nearly 2 days now. Hopefully they take their turn soon. We are on the last lap on 2 tracks and mid way through lap 2 on 1 race. Good luck!
I ("mcevoy") have clinched League 3. I won Bumper Beware with GustavToo second (still on second lap), and I won Desert Dash with FluffMyster second (still on second lap). So with a score of 4-1-1, even if I choke and finish last on W (I presently lead and could theoretically win on my next shot, though 2 shots is more likely required) I'll still win the league.
Round 2 League 3 is now officially completed (ironically, my first round league STILL isn't over, though my victory is long-since-clinched and one of the opponents has officially forfeit). I won the W race, with FluffMyster in second. So the final standings of League 3 were: mcevoy 6 Fluffmyster 2 GusTavToo 1
Not sure anyone noticed but v2.0 is in the app store now. Nothing visibly different from what I see, the release note line mentions better Twitter and emoji (?) support, which seems awfully small for a full increment-number release... but at the very least, it's a sign that Pixelocity is still supporting the title and has not closed the door on new updates and revisions.
I've pretty much clinched the victory for league 1. I've won 2 races and I'm currently leading the last race. I would have to come in 3rd place and dls911 would have to win for there to be a tiebreaker. Considering I'm about to lap SomethingWitty on our final lap, I believe you can call league 1 complete. At the rate were moving, about a turn maybe 2 a day, we may be finished by the end of the weekend. =)
Yes. I just want to say a big thank you to gospvg for putting this together and managing it! It's been a great way to meet some wonderful competitors, and other users who love this game as much as I do! Cheers!
I'm about 3 turns away from finishing the last race, not saying that it's impossible that dls911 will catch me but he's a couple turns behind. SomethingWitty managed 2 turns today so far which is better than his usual one turn a day. Like I said before. I've pretty much won League 1. Witty would have to nearly come from a lap behind and pass me so that I finish last for anything to even matter points-wise. So far the results from our league. Big W: 1st-Indy 2nd-Dls911 3rd-Somethingwitty Bumper Beware: 1st-Indy 2nd-Dls911 3rd-Somethingwitty Desert Dash: (currently) 1st-Indy 2nd-Dls911 3rd-Somethingwitty I feel pretty confident that I've clenched the win on Desert but you never know with this game, someone makes a jump on you and the next thing you know you're trailing, not likely in this situation but you never know! Can't wait to race some of the best of the best, hopefully this weekend! Question for gospvg: Are we doing anything special for the last round? Will it be a single race for the final victory or another set of 3 with possiblity of a tiebreaker? Just wondering. I hope you will run more tournaments in the future because even though some that were committed at first fell through and slowed things down a bit, it has been fun and some of the competition is as solid as I've ever played! Thanks again.
I expect the final will be four simultaneous races, with each participant getting the pole position on one race.
