Kripp wins Race ladder by big margin. WTF HOW?

its kinda funny that the #1 and #20 are about 500 points apart

what i think they need to start doing is hold tandem events so 1 person cant win them all

i can!

480 wasn't enough for those guys.

...

1000 for top prize here ya go.

on a side note..

one of the reasons i would love to see races that are in game time, rather real time..

for instance, a 1 hour race would could run a full 24 hours in real time, and you could start that race at any time during that 24 hour period (or perhaps 23 hour period, given its a 1 hour race) and once you spawned in the world your 1 hour started counting (in game time) once that character has racked up 1 hour total play time, he is immediatly ported back to town in default league.

maybe you could even enter as many times as you like for the race.. but only your highest score would count.

just dont know how this would work with, say, week long races.. maybe there are no more week races, or they go by different rules, but ive seen it suggested numerous times, hope they make it into season 2 somehow.

these races are all about collecting data.. i think you'd get way more participation in races and thus, more data..

Living your life as you want to is sad as hell ;)

Being upset about a competition that's largely based on who has more time to play a computer game, is sadder.

I think that once you start, the timer should keep going even if you're logged out. That way, you can start whenever you want, but you're still in the same "environment" as before. Good idea though. School and homework have been keeping me from playing all the races so I haven't participated very often (no chance of winning).

It makes no sense for me to play sports because I'll never be as good as the pros.

Racing is a blast. I'm terrible at it. I die every time trying to keep up with the good players. I just don't understand people that complain about racing because they don't like the rewards or don't like that the same people always win. Race because it's fun and because you want to set a personal record.

It was painfully obvious that this would be the case from the getgo.
How GGG thought that this would be fair, is beyond what i can understand.
