Andrew A's game on Double Sprint
Ok - not 30 to 40 frames as you say Vega, but .3 to .4 of a second is possible (though very very difficult).

I reverted to an easier, more consistent start method - just to practice the turnaround, and this popped out within about 5 runs! This start really does set you up better for the turnaround, but I gave up about .3 of a sec to Champ at one point.

The drive all the way back is pretty difficult to get, but much, much quicker, no?

VERY nicely done, AA.

5,360 players have submitted a time for this level, and you now have gold!

Couldn't have had a more mistimed ending - without dying

Early days.

Andrew A's game on Double Sprint
Thanks for that, Vega.

For all my talk of .3/.4 of a second - it's still just 1 frame though..

Back in the day, this would have felt vulnerable. It still does.

So - have you got yersel' an old iPod yet?

Not yet bud. Still on the ol' rusty Treo.

1,312 less players than on Riding School (btw), So, yea - a summery breezy walk in the park..

Cue The Isley Brothers.. (some people think it was Jimi H who played the guitar lead lines on that song, but he had left the band by then - with a year or two of anonymity still ahead of him, before he arrived in a properly appreciative London, under the managership of Chas Chandler - ex bass player of The Animals, and himself pretty much broke at that point).

It was Ernie Isley who played those guitar lines - being totally in the thrall of Jimi (but without the - ahem - same level of creativity?).

If anyone is interested.

Just because I heard the song today for the first time in years

Vega's game on Jurassic Parking
My comment on Clay Serpent is -Unquestionably the hardest I have ever worked for a silver medal in all my years of Bike or Die -.

Well... not anymore! My efforts to obtain silver here far supersede my efforts on Clay Serpent.

After 20,064 tries and 591 completed (ridiculous for a map this difficult to complete), I have decided to yield the gold and move on.

Make no mistake... I gave this my very best shot! This silver medal is my greatest defeat in BoD thus far.

How? Because my second best time is 37.12 and I was gunning for gold here. This was a breakthrough run and I missed it by ONE FRAME!!

My new 36.76 run (black bike) against 6 of my best failed runs that made me want to crush my Treo with a mallet.

Red bike comes close but that's the one where I got horribly robbed with a tire straight through the red flag after the yellow truck.

Yellow bike had a fighting chance for a bit too. This is pretty cool to watch

36.76 (black bike) against 6 of my best completed runs that would all qualify for bronze.

Interesting to see a couple bikes come from behind to catch up to the pack.

Also interesting to see how confidently the black bike pulls away from the pack in the final stretch.

Vega's game on Downhill Madness
Well folks... (yes, the massive audience that frequents this forum ) I am now the only person to hold a place on the first page of every level in the Standard Pack. That is to say... a TOP 10 rank.

Now, it is worth noting that this level is my worst rank at #9, but I get bronze points since everybody and their grandmother is tied on this silly map.

My worst points on any standard level is equivalent to 7th place at 103 points.

And I am not even finished...

Andrew A's game on Sinus Mountains
Mystical.. (though a bit of a slow start)



No I haven't been playing this level all this time! Just been very busy with other things.

Having said that - when I have had the odd moment to play at all - it's been this level I've played.

Will catch up on the plethora of posts this evening.

Andrew A's game on Sinus Mountains
Very nicely executed AA. I always figured a high 29.xx would be the stone cold nuts on this map.

I've never played Sinus Mountains with a ghost. Even if (someday) I do, this will be a very difficult run to best.

Mystical indeed, sir.

Andrew A's game on Underground
Pretty sure I can better this

Interesting doing a H2H with Oliver - our front wheels overlap almost exactly at the end, when he finishes, but mine slides on for a few more frames (4).

Olivers start is very slow. I am 0.2 -ish ahead of him early on.

The Gold time can definitely be beaten, though not sure by how much. I'd probably settle for 3rd spot on this map right now..

Slid past the top of the flag for about oohhh - 3 seconds .. Otherwise almost a cert Gold.

Will have to check in Edge (where I can do a fullscreen replay, but not comment - the opposite of Chrome).

Just checked and 16.46-.50 looks about right. When my bike actually 'finishes', I'm nowhere near the flag anymore..

Just the one (smiley).

But super annoyingly smug...

16.4x! Incredible. I figured you might land a 16.5x but you took it one step further. I think this could be the eternal gold here.

Even if I revisited this level, I'm not sure I'd play it competitively enough to best this run.

Bonus points for toppling another longstanding gold of mike flips. Any day you do that is a good day.

Quite nicely done, AA.

Wow, 10 years since the previous best run. This is a tricky trick. Smooth!
