There are alot tracks which shows wrong medals with donkey and crazy bikes. about 10% tracks are wrong
pls fix
Yes, I believe the medals shown are based on "Night Life"s medal times as explained by xitooner here

Roughly, you can see that most of the long tracks that will take about 30 sec are marked as bronze, and the short ones as platinium. So I suspect this to be thereason.
I really think the devs should take a look at xitooner's post, since they seem not to be aware.
Nice observation! This .... would actually quite funny in its own weird way; sounds like they might have got bitten by their own scoring bug.Originally Posted by ambsan47 Go to original postI just wish I had the update to see it for myself (on IOS) .... I'll get it soon, I suppose....
Back when I posted my topic I asked Jolly to forward it to the devs to see if they might respond and he said he would.... maybe they didnt read it very closely.
If this turns out to be the case... any bets on whether the current donkey/crazy scoring bug is fixed and the LBs recalculated?![]()
Okay, now that IOS has the update as well... I can also confirm that ambsan47 is right; the donkey/crazy medals being shown are bugged.
The Donkey/Crazy medals displayed are not using the traditional Medal times for each track; all tracks for donkey/crazy are showing using the Medal times based on the "Night Life" tracks medal times. So your visible donkey/crazy medal on the screen could be almost anything (even Bronze) for times that would be Plat if it were the normal LB. Its even possible its showing as Plat when its not....
These are the medal times that the donkey/crazy medals are using:
- Bronze is 30.701 to 9999+ sec
- Silver is 24.001 to 30.7 sec
- Gold is 22.001 to 24 sec
- Plat is <=22 sec
(if you have faults it may be adjusted worse, of course)
Thats why your plat donkey runs on long tracks like Diamond Dash, Lost Race Track, Lumber Yard, Tanktops, etc are probably showing as Bronze (Silver if you are really good)![]()
Well if only RL was as smart as x hereOriginally Posted by xitooner Go to original post![]()
+1 here to xitooner also!Originally Posted by justinman114 Go to original post
We just have to rely on bonxy site for medals viewing.
Instead of adding this new Toggle feature and the other things they've tried to add (but failed to) they should have just focused on Recalculating the Leader Boards and making them work properly once and for all.....I'm pretty sure that most people would prefer to have this than ALL the new things they've tried to add recently but they've just added more bugs and glitches instead !!!!![]()
I really like the Toggle feature. It's been a highly requested option ever since the Donkey had its own leaderboard... I don't even have a guess as to how long ago that was.
The problem is now, their Toggle feature has shed light on the fact that the entire Donkey and CrazyBike Plat, Gold, Silver and Bronze medals are based on the exact same time metrics, regardless of which track you race on! With a database as massive and theirs, the solution isn't just as easy as re-writing a couple lines of code. To fix this, Ubi will have to completely re-analyze the leaderboard, changing everyone's LB position. I can see why they are hesitant to do this, even if it is the right thing to do.
I agree, that would be the correct way to do it, and very time consuming. But another way to at least make it better would be to make the toggle show the actual medals we have got in Donkey / Crazy. That can't be too hard, can it? I mean, the medal times are known for each track, they are the same on all bike modes (regular, donkey, crazy), right?Originally Posted by Whitechapple Go to original post
I thought this was what it was meant to do anyway, as I know I have mostly Platinum Medals with the Donkey now, but when I Toggle it most of the tracks are showing the wrong medal !?!?Originally Posted by PapaFrey Go to original post![]()
