    Screw off, Banana Girl!

    In this current week of the challenge, we race against the ghost and I'm fine with that.. I've been playing Stilted Path now for about 20 minutes, a level I usually have minimal problems with, until the end. I'm allowed 4 faults and have completed this course with 2. What's really screwing me up, is I made it toward the end and had some issues with the final buzz saw. Now this little brat pops up and wants me to spend 30 gems on a banana peel EVERY TIME I RESTART! Since she's been popping up, I can barely get past the second jump, sometimes the first! Is it absolutely necessary to have her pop up EVERY time you restart? In the actual game when you're racing turbo lame-o and that other chick.. the button comes up for "Banana Time" and you're not interrupted every time you restart. Why is it different with this challenge? I've always hated her pop-up and feel a little insulted and usually suck after she pops up but then she goes away. She's not going away now and it's been a harder strain on my patience...

    I'm just venting here and needed a few minutes away from this course before I go back in.

    I'm sure there are others like me that know when they screw up, know how to correct it and are looking for the back-swipe on the arrow to begin again.. but this little gap-toothed brat is putting a damper on my style!

    **And right after I posted this, I won the match... It pays to vent some times...

    I got Daredevil Paradise with her today, and the banana girl appeared before I even started my first run. Luckily I was able to beat her to every checkpoint on maybe my 4th try so it wasn't super annoying, but man, there needs to be a way to disable her.

    Jeah, Dark machine today, spent to get new track... permafrost climb!
    She get somewhat 20sec time there, I haven't played that tracks since I got platinum there...
    Well, another 10 gems then...

    EDIT: long time ago the banana girl popped up once, and after that it stayed on middle low screen as an banner. It should be like that also.

    +1 to disable her as well....I probably never used her offer and during rodeo event it is pointless to use 30 gems for banana....however it is almost end of the event...

    I will never use her and would like the ability to disable her.

    And it's super annoying when she cut down the race counter straight to 1.... wth... Loosing my patience cause of this nuance.

    Definitely annoying. Got Cowgirl on Grindhouse and was trying to snag all checkpoints. Definitely needs to be a better implementation/player options for enabling assistance.
