    It's a real shame the acorn tournaments won't return. I really enjoyed them. Every week I'd be looking forward to the weekend so that I can win some acorns.

    You say they won't return because some people weren't receiving their acorns. That happened to me too. I was owed 500 acorns one weekend and never received them but I'd rather that there are still tournaments with a small chance you won't get your reward than no tournaments at all. Even if I don't get the acorns at least there was still a high chance that I do get them. Now there is no chance whatsoever.

    Also, I agree with the above poster, if there are now less methods to earn acorns then the prices should be cut to reflect that.

    Sorry fur double post but just saw this suggestion about attempts.

    Absolutely not.
    It doesn't matter how many attempts you take. If I get 47:00:00 on Inferno with 0f but it took me 700 attempts and you get 47:00:40 but with only 200 attempts I should still be ahead of you on the leaderboards no matter what.
    That's the beauty of trials. You can keep trying a track to improve your pb. If attempts matter then after a while on a track I'd stop bothering because no matter how well I do I'm gonna just keep slipping down the leaderboard. It's like the goal posts keep moving.

    That's why I want them not to be with with infinite attempts. The winner is who has more time for playing, but not who plays better.

    Playtime isn't a valid excuse. We don't all have the same ability/rate of improvement, therefore playtime is basically irrelevant.

    The better player is the one with the better run. End of story.
