    12 hours suck

    Really 12 hours? 24 hours or 20 minutes. I don't have time to play all day or 12 hours from when I started. Its 930 pm no way I'm playing at 930 am I'm in meetings. Change this.

    You could always start them at 9:30am and play them at the end. I agree this is kind of a weird time but it's doable, you just probably can't play the whole time so it's more like doing a short one anyways. We really just need to have the options.

    I think his point is you can start at 8 or whenever right before you go to work, and then just play your showdown from 7-8 at night or whatever fits your schedule. Your boss might not let you play the showdowns at 9:30, but you can probably open up the app, press start showdown 3 times, and then close it and play the end of the showdown at night. This season is definitely inconvenient for the 9-7 worker contingent that plays this game, which is probably a lot of us based on the age poll showing a lot of players 25+ years old. Just because it's inconvenient doesn't mean it is impossible, though.

    Maybe "summer" season is catered to students on their summer break who have the opportunities to play during any time slot.

    I still would like to see trick based showdowns where you have to meet certain criteria like a slot machine challenge. Obviously, both opponents get the same criteria. This way it's no longer doing tracks where you've practically mastered the path and the tricks alter how you ride the track. Definitely agree that 12 hours is an odd time frame. 3 hours wouldn't be too bad.

    I must agree with you guys, I am not a fan of this format, there is no good time to start a showdown and be able to stay on top of the match, I have started several and lost because the pther person raced while I was asleep or working and did't attempt to beat his time... I am sure I won a few that way too. But still not a fan.

    Cheers
