Do you think I've got the goods Bubblegum? Cuz I am INTO this stuff!

Oh heck yes! I guess I need to buy TM2 now. Do car models from the first game still work in the second? I can't imagine a racing season without Santa and his reindeer riding along. :)

Also, count me in for the Goon track.

I hate the feeling that I can do better, but after several hours of trying, I think I hit my wall. It was a great wall for my standards, so I'm not unhappy at all. But that Entropist finish line is just smirking at me smugly, and I want to hit it so hard...

What do you guys use as your determining factor on when to call it quits and not drive yourself crazy?

Thanks whoever sent out the emails. I survived this thing back in 2010, so I'm definitely up for whatever gets thrown at me this year.

I remember feeling like a bit of a dick when I made the first 10 seconds of that course. Little did I know how much of a big bunch of assholes Goons really can be.

I'll set up the global leaderboards soon.

18th two weeks in a row? That's an odd thing for me to be consistent about. Guess I'll try very hard to be average from here on out, and that's the only reason I won't be winning. :)

Oh good. I'm out all week for business, so the extra day will really help me maintain my lower upper-class position. Thanks for being on vacation, Entropist!

I can't tell if I should brake more often, or stop braking so much. Technical tracks are confusing. :psyduck:

Edit: On another note, people who signed up for the Goon Track, remember to check your emails or you might get skipped over.

Oops. That was pointed at me. :ohdear: I'll have something back to you tomorrow.

I think my standings are going to drop after this and next week - had about 30 minutes tonight to get a time for Track 7, and will have about the same for Track 8 and Goon Track 1 next Sunday. Is it weird that I'd rather be at home playing Trackmania and not on an all-expenses-paid business trip?

I was playing GT1 tonight, and my wife happened to be watching for a bit. I got to CVE's part, and she said "That reminds me of a nightmare I had one time." CVE, all I can say is :bravo:

You may have just screwed everyone who didn't submit a time!

Edit: Yes. I just checked. You pushed my global position from 31 to 25!

He took a bullet for the rest of us slow, but loyal, participants.

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

Really close all around! That was probably my favorite track of the season (outside of the Goon Tracks, of course).

I don't know if you planned this everyone, but at ~9:00 in the Afghan Warcraft video, five Entropists go upside-down to the timing of a cymbal crash-paired crescendo in the music. Well done. :golfclap:


Edit: vvvv Thanks! Was going off the video credits - says Sup did recording/editing.
