what if we used vegas two ideas but we had them on one page. for idea 2 recognize the top five people and the second i agree to recognizing one. also we should have them all one one page for idea two but at the same time when you click a page for a level it should show the person whose had the most gold days on the level

[Longest Standing Golds Competition] yea, that would be cool.

yea, that would be cool.

On the main level page for each level, underneath the picture of the level it can say, longest record for gold on this level: "Name" "# of days"

by the way.... there is an important reason for part 2. Because if the longest standing were the only one, then you would never want to beat your own gold if it's long standing and you are going for the record

Daledude's idea is very cool. I think there should be 2 parts to it.

part 1
longest standing gold
1 person only recognized
based on one individual run and counted by # of days held

part 2
Total Gold days for each level
All historical gold holders recognized
Basically a total gold point tally for each level. Example: I had 16.88 as gold on Underground, then Oliver beat it, then I took it back with 16.68. Or better example. I had gold on Sinus Mountains for several months before I submitted the jump trick and beat my own gold. The total point tally would simply add all days up that each player held the gold for that level, regardless of which individual run it was. Seems pretty easy to do bcuz all the numbers are already there.

I think Mike is the closest to what I'm thinking here. It's less of a competition and more of a place to remember great golds. You would get one point per day you had a gold on a certain level and the count would be saved and then reset once you lost it. So the person with the most consecutive days holding a single gold on a single level would be in first. We might have to limit the number to either one entry per player or only 100 or so entrants. There would be a ton of entrants if everything was counted. I like my first idea more though since only 98 players have ever held a gold. It would make the list more manageable.

Older players will definitely have an advantage here, but I think it is a good way of remembering a great gold that stood for a long long time.

If there were to be a competition like this, we cant just choose levels as our golds, look at vegas time on the right way, its not going to be beaten any time soon... and there are other similar golds that are really good. Everyone will be in first for too long.

And the first option, to me it sounds like it tells you how many days you have had any gold. And so if you have 5, the first day u get a point and if you lose 3 you still get points every day until you have no golds left. Then you are out and however many days you had golds for is how many points you get.

What about people that arent going to lose all their golds??? Me, cirenco, kris, vega, pmd, and many more are not losing all our golds so we will just be tied.

If this contest were to work it would have to be something such as, what Dale's title suggests... the longest standing gold. It will take your longest gold and will give you a point per day for the gold. THen there is chart of all the longest standing golds. And if i have 300 days for one level, i get 300 points. If someone has 244 day they get 244 points. That is the only way i see this working. IT is very long term... but older players may be up in the rankings here.

i lie tis idea but i'm going to expand on it a little. i have two options.

option 1- there is a point per day with a gold but the com only chooses one gold.lets say you have two golds. and afer three days you lose one. so the com continues to go from 3days and so on untiol you lose all your golds and you ave to sart over. in other words it shows ow many days you had until you lost a gold. we would exclude bottle levels of course

option2 you pick a specific gold and continue to go as far as you can on that gold till it is taken. when it is you must start over. ck a new gold and start from 0 again.the catch when you pick a certain level for idea #2 people will be able to see what level you choose making it a target.

for both ideas there would be a gold silver and bronze placing for how many days ou went
for idea 1 it would just have a number. for idea 2 it would have the number of days what level and what .
i really like #2 it is more challenging to all players because idea 1 will be a massive tie between about 10 players and woulnt be fun but idea 2 is awesom and adds more competition

please tell me if you one if you have any more suggestions and if you want it to be added to the site

i vote idea #2 to be added to a seperate contest. it would be really cool
