    I don't even think that poll is too convincing. The Stallion is way more special than the other bikes, so if you like normal bikes then you chose the Stallion. If you DO like the Stallion, you'd go for one of the other bikes which are, of course, different from each other but not in the extreme way the Stallion is. But you got six to chose, not only one ;p
    Also I think the Stallion is way too underrated. Sure it's a ***** sometimes, really often even, but still it has enormous potential.

    The poll is very straightforward; which bike do you not like. Stallion wins hand-down across as many people as you are likely to ever see in a forum poll, and it would be very foolish indeed to throw that data away just because you ALSO think it has potential. It shows a trend, which is all you can get from it. I can use the Stallion to its fullest potential, but I dont WANT to because I think it sucks overall; its not what Trials should be about as far as I am concerned. . .which is why its my least favorite. Give the pollers some credit for making informed decisions.

    If you want to find out how many people LIKE the Stallion versus all other bikes, then start your own similar poll but ask which is everyones favorite instead (and probably remove the Balance Bikes but put in the Agile Bikes). The results may surprise us all.

    Since we are asking for all kinds of things here for contests, here is part of my personal lists I keep track of and post from time to time; it echoes many of the things you guys are saying:



    - Create a bunch of multi-track tournaments. Like EVO did it; ex you pick the tournament name from a list, and you must then run its assigned 3-4 tracks in a row, and sum their faults/times. Tournament get their own leaderboard and medals... RL can literally add as many of these over time as you want. Its a no-brainer for them since it adds in-game challenge using pre-existing tracks.

    - A set of Contest maps; a special map where you cant lean....one where gas is always pushed ... one where you have to jump far ... of how high can you jump... or how high can you climb before dying, etc. Also known as skill games in EVO

    - Add in-game Achievements of all types; easy and very, very hard. Some based on stats.. some can be a contest in themselves. Some examples... Holding a wheelie for 10/20/30 secs (any track)... completing track X without using "lean"... crossed finish line 25K times... gathered 1K/5K/10K/25K gems .... made Legends 10 times... played 10K showdowns... won 5K showdowns... Collected all "buzzard nests" (and then go put some buzzard nests in many tracks in hard-to-get places).... etc. (that last one can literally be a contest in itself). Frankly, this is only limited by imagination.

    - Gigatrack for Frontier!

    - Separate Stallion and AgentBike LBs (its more fun/replayable to test my skill over all tracks with a single bike, like Donkey is done)

    - Be more creative with Bunker Seasons. Changing showdown time and season duration, etc is not really adding much variety. Need to be trying to make the same old tracks seem fresh and new again while still adding challenge. Like some peoples suggestions of adding trick requirements (flips, inverted times, etc). Or hey, maybe they reverse the track and we all race right-to-left instead of left-to-right. or maybe overpower our bikes by 50%... Or add the donkey/stallion to showdowns for everyone (just in showdowns). Or reduce/increase gravity, or add places where if you touch it you are frozen for .25secs (you must avoid those spots). But only in the Bunker. Stuff that just makes gameplay.... Different. Not merely quicker/longer.

    PS : Guys, sometimes I make jokes *__* The Unicorn thingy was just to pick up on Elements1992's comment. And any way, I am not the one who'll decide what will be the next event, so relax, no unicorn bike/event (as far as I know...) ;D

    It would be too similar in idea to the Stallion.... which means it should 100% just be a Stallion paintjob... and soon! :P

    First off, I wanted to mention that I almost feel bad for the Stallion, since it's getting so much hate. RedLynx tried a new concept, and as quirky and strange as it is, I guess it didn't really work out. But that isn't an excuse to turn your backs and start dumping on the bike -- even though I agree that a bike that the Stallion doesn't belong in the current Trials atmosphere, it was in every way a creative experiment. I'd hate to see such outrageously fresh and different ideas get stifled at the drawing board.

    Now, back on topic, I took a screenshot of the bunker matchmaker when it happened to cycle through 2 outfits I've never seen (as mentioned by the OP).
