    Summer season, 2 weeks, 12 hour showdowns

    How many chips can you get in 12 hours? I forget...

    I need 11,000 for traction testground and was going to spend my 450 tickets to get it in a day but now im not sure i can earn enough with the 12 hour timeline

    With ping-pong, i think something 600-800 could be doable.

    12 hour showdowns...

    So, if I start a showdown when I get home from school at 4pm it finishes at...4am. If I start one later it still finishes either too early or during school/work hours.
    Looks like I'll be skipping this season, can't believe RL actually thought 12 hours was a good time.

    I'll do some casual showdowns, but not competing... the reason is obvious as said above.

    This is even worse than blitz season!

    The news popup that appears when you open the app said the developers have listened to users and put together a season of shorter showdowns. Who are they listening to? Was there a poll on this discussion board? Where are they getting these ideas from?

    EDIT: There was this poll some time back.

    I really liked the idea of a season with tricks. Fastest time with 10 backflips takes the track. It would mess up the lines people
    Practice, change the game.

    I don't hate the 12, but it isn't my favorite either. At least it isn't a month.

    Looks like 250 chips at 6 hours as I'm letting my opponents win uncontested, not sure what to do with my plan yet


    A season with tricks would be fun

    Yeah, its nothing to get excited about. Its funny how people will sometimes complain about the 24 hour matches, but at least you could start those whenever you felt like it (and were awake); a 12 hour game cant be started in 16 out of the 24 hours (assuming 8 hours of sleep)

    Being focused more on other aspects at the moment, the Bunker really isnt going to draw me in other than for a casual game or two.

    I actually find this quite a good idea!
