I have no problem with that I was not chosen. But I am a little bit annoyed by the following statement:

Please don't be disappointed if your name is not in the list, we've chosen names on a First Come First Serve basis.

It seems that this is not the whole truth.

It would therefore be a nice gesture if all who have registered and have not been selected are set/seeded at the next event (or receive a few gems as consolation ;-).

My sympathy to all who weren't selected. After reading the first responses to the team-doc, I didn't expect my name to show up. Luckily it did.

If anyone can retrieve the date/time of my first post in this thread (I can't on iPad it seems), and is sure to have registered earlier than that, then indeed:

It seems that this is not the whole truth.

It's BS if anyone who signed up wasn't selected. Why is there a limit? There are like 63 teams, you think 163 would make a difference?

I am very mad for those players.

ALSO: IMPORTANT:

It says we were selected on a "first come first serve basis". This is simply not true. I see plenty of people here who said they registered IMMEDIATELY after it was posted, and didn't get selected. I, however, didn't register until like 5 hours after I saw the post, and I got in. I don't even know if I saw the post the same day it was made on TFG. So someone is lying.

I'm actually kind of excited for this, because I love team based stuff, but everyone should be involved, not just the precious selected few, and that includes me.

AS USUAL, fixing is needed, but will not happen.

Sorry to my fellow riders who didn't get to join

EDIT: I just checked my teammates on Bonxy. This is ridiculous lol. I have a teammate who has literally 0 time played in the game, 0 tracks, 0 medals, etc. I have a few others with very little playtime. Looks like a few who actually play. There are gonna be teams that have people who don't even play who just signed up to troll, and we have legit players who play this game every day who don't get to play. Nice.

I was not the earliest of birds but still signed for the this event the same day it was announced I think and well before the original deadline but seems I missed the spot on the list
I'm not the fastest rider but I got most of the released tracks by playing earlier events actively having me at ~1k bracket in global leaderboard.

Oh well, at least nowI don't have to deal with the inevitable glitches the event will likely have in one form or another
Still GL to those who got picked :thumbsup:

NeetjeNL,
I am in your Flower Hills team, mate.
Altogether with USA-Mike_G-TFG, I hope he will push us up and upper : )
There are other players with rank 1 in the team.
I haven't checked if the other teams are mixed well with various ranked players.
I will do my best – only after work : )

Guys!!! calm down. We have 3 Legs.

Here is the new schedule -
1st Leg: 16th August – 22nd August 2017
2nd Leg: 22nd August – 28th August 2017
3rd Leg: 28th August – 3rd September 2017

The first leg, i guess, the first 63 teams are playing.
In the second leg new 63 teams. And so on.

That's the reason that someone of you isnt in the first leg, Ubi-Negitron correct me if i'am false.
And they fixxed bugs before we are get these. All good vibriations for me.

But why we use Google Docs? Why? WHY???

We have bonxy and my page where we can do some magic with html and css. We are here and we willing help

Anyway lets start this event i'm excited with my team "The Waterwheels"


PS.: credits to carterclem for his tutorial on waterwheels https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BckEjx62Zj0

:highfive:
Next week I'm away for vacations, but I'm sure I'll get some runs. Will do my best to push LB!

@Dutscher, the OP says "The winning team would need to have the highest total score at the end of all 3 Legs combined!" It doesn't say that teams will be hussled during the event. I also believe thatt would be too much to handle for RL and is reaallly inviting bugs to come...
(Also, awesome Waterwheels graphic!)

I don't think so, because:

The winning team would need to have the highest total score at the end of all 3 Legs combined!

But why we use Google Docs? Why? WHY???

Because they were using google forms and they work with google docs, submiting a form actually creates an entry in spreadsheet which i guess they used to "randomly" pick the team members...

But anyway i can't say i am disappointed i feel more like ... sad ... i don't know ... they just didn't had to deal like this with their loyal and dedicated players which i am sure are not only from the top of the leaderboards...

Sure these players must be really dedicated. And i didn't even tried to lookup the info of all "random players... nothing personal just saying:

maxsw81 from team "Abandoned Mines" - 100,855,699 diamonds? he must be really dedicated to TF ...
Strongchico from team "Terror Towers" - 903,507 diamonds? he must be really dedicated to TF ...
angelo4ek89 from team "Widowmakers" - 35,957 diamonds? not sure here but still suspicious dedication to TF ...

Good luck to all participants in this event, do your best and let the better win.

[dutscher-DE]

Yes you're right. I'm false with my optimism theory. Let's wait for the statement of RL.

But i think/hope they see their fault and everybody get part of the event.

cheers

I didn't register for about 1-2 days after the event registration opened. It definitely isn't first come first served. It's also quite annoying that a lot of the teams are made up by people who have barely played the game. I'm not saying that the teams should only include the elite players, just that players should be checked to see if they will actually contribute to the event. That said I am still quite hyped for the event.

Also - I'm concerned that since this is like the usual MC events, those people with ridiculous amounts of hacked gems (we know who you are) will have a massive advantage within the event!

I don't think that is right at all mate. I think each of the teams will play all three legs and those who didn't make the teams will not be playing in the championship. They will still be able to play the usual Midnight Circuit as usual though!
