P.S: I am, truly, a terrible rider. The last one to arrive that does not even appeared at the end of the video. Marshalls at Temple Hall will confiscate my license.
Just finished the US race. Not sure what happened - stated 15 minutes late, not instructions, unclear how the start was signallled. A bunch of bikes left when fireworks went off. As far as I could see I won it by a substantial ammount, but there were no announcements or any indication of what happened.
I state several times in say, in general and in chatā¦ and itās stated this clearly in the forum thread, skyh. Sometimes chat is buggy though. But good luck on the next race.
Mystery solved - I missed the sentence saying we had to use Sprint IV. And I forgot that I had General chat turned off, so didnāt see it in the game.
Oops ā¦ I was wondering how I ended up so far ahead
It is certainly easier to navigate on Sprint IV ā¦ I practiced the course a few times, but I forgot to practice reading the instructions.
Leogrim wasnāt using sprint 4. He left everyone behind on the first straight line just after the start. You can see his speed even at the start of the video, disappearing without the camera crew ever seeing him again before the finish line. Hollo+Crew said at the end theyād have to watch the video before announcing the winners, because atleast 2 had taken a shortcut through Pangea. Sadly, Hollopoint was the only one recording, and they didnāt have proof of the malice taken afoot. Thatās why they let Leogrim walk away with the prices.
Yeah it was more confusion with the first race, no problems at all with the winners, we have things sorted from here on in. It was just first time inexperience with the race.
The start and end point have also been changed to help out with things as well.
For the Friday 13th Races we will do 2 races per time zone and have plenty of Marshals. Also Iāll publish the revised prizes shortly, had some nice gifts in
If anything it was a problem with the marshaling, I stayed up at the front with the second race, so I had a better view of the leaders and if a higher sprint was used, as it was mistakenly by the first across the line in the second race. Also popping the flare to start the race, knocked me off my bike.
Due to the confusion with the early races, Iāve upped the number of races to two per time zone anyway, so at least there will be more chances for people to win a race.
It was an awesome event! I was logging in just to do a few practise runs around London, not just for some minibosses and some marks. Thank you!
Iām not asking for a reward or anything.
No worries, Wesqq, thank. I am aware that everyting should be above board as much as possible with every event we do With the Bike Race it was just something Iād never tried before
Without me being able to keep pace and check for sure, I donāt really want to get into recriminations about that sort of thing, Wesqq. As I said, teething problems with the first race.
