    I found that if you haven't loaded the game up or it goes through the loading screen, it doesn't take you to the leaderboard. What I do, is I will load the game up, go to the map, then hit my Samsung home key, and then lock my phone. When I get the notification I click on the notification and it takes me back to the map loading that leaderboard.

    Through some trial and error, I found that when my connection changes (example: I leave home and disconnect from my WiFi or vice versa), the game will load up from the loading screen. So once I am out of range, I load the game back up and do as I stated above.

    I also tried some of the notification saver apps out there thinking that I could use that to re-launch but they turned out to be captures of the data and would not actually take me to Trials.

    Periodically though I will run through the process in the first paragraph to make sure it still goes to the map when I click the Trials icon then go back to the home page so that when I do get the notification I don't miss out on the opportunity to play one of those tracks.

    Wow that is freaking genius. I do that with the home key sometimes but only to quickly check stuff on other apps, etc. Never thought to just leave it going.

    Thanks to LinkinJon, who passed me on Bunnyhop, I got the chance to play it with the donkey. Now I only need Hill Climb.

    And again, thanks to LinkinJon, I did Hill Climb today.
    Now I have zero faulted every track except The Quagmire and Permafrost Climb with the donkey.
    The Hill Climb and Bunnyhop tracks gave me an insane amount of points on the donkey leaderboard, both are sub 10 second times. After doing Sine City with the donkey I went from 104 million to 105 million points, but after doing Bunnyhop it went up to 108 million. And now after doing Hill Climb I have 111 million points.

    Maybe it has to do with the sub-10 second times; I have seen Cave give 3 million (roughly). I think I made a note of the Cave one in a post somewhere; it was my first donkey track and at the time I wasnt sure if it was track-related or just because I was getting a "first track bonus" from Ubi.


    Twice now I have missed notifications for this; once I swiped the wrong way, and the other I logged into the ipad and all my notications were wiped; like I get to see them once and they are gone. Very frustrating, but I'll get this eventually....

    You arent showing on Traction Testground at all; maybe you dont have it yet. (Cass has 0 faults, and the next person has 45 faults....) Personally, I was saving this one for last because I need all the donkey experience I can get first....

    Totally forgot about Traction Testground, I still need a lot of chips to unlock it but I have lost interest in playing the bunker.
