Change in ANBA's choice of opponent | Forums

[hanks420]

Thanks hikasrams, i hadn´t touched Anba in a long time. I did a test just now and paid 5 gems to get another matchup instead of Great Wall, and to my surprise it matched me on Black Forest against someone with the exact same time as my PB, so yea if i improve 0:00.001 i will win. My apologies to Zarrex, i didn´t realize RL had changed this!

I'm not sure they really did. None of my anba challenges only require a .001 improvement, however, I only have 2 tracks where i rank in the top 2000 and only 1 where I'm in the top 500. I usually need to improve by at least .1 and by sometimes by a full second.

If you rank extremely high on a certain track there are extremely few faster times for you to beat.

I would assume if you have the #-1 time on any track you will never race anba there as there is no one with a faster time.

I´m not sure either. Truth is Anba is just not very useful once you´ve platted most of the tracks.

Damn! it's always been like this - just tel smb. a good idea and it turns away from you
Guess what? My ANBA is >0.5s away from me now (after beating it in previous track by 0.8 s)
Now it will be impossible for me at all. Opponent is one place below me on Aqueduct LB, but as LB isn't sorted properly, all in all there is about 1000 gap between us I guess
It's not a good idea of choosing ANBA from neighbour LB position instead of according to time. Maybe that's a problem?

Edited: (details for JollyCharly)
On bonxy site my opponent has 315 place having time 19.982; there is no my entry on this site somehow, but it should be 1230 with time 20.522 (http://trials.bonxy.net/tracks/The+A...roid&show=1500).
On RL LB: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1...1024/upload_-1
my place is 1057, opponent is 1058.
My advice for RL in choosing ANBA is not to only take into account LB place and select neighbor, but to compare times also. It's nearly impossible to move up 1000 positions in my case (I have only one track <300). If starting point was 10.000 than -1000 it would be possible. Please, choose opponents closer to ANBA purpose
