    Small price increase for the midnight club?

    Noticed yesterday the new prices for retrying after your 6th(did they add one?) try and also to skip the timer has gone up by 2 gems. Not a big increase but it'll soon add up. Kinda makes me sad, I thought the 3 for retry and 5 to skip was alright. =/

    Any decent reason why or... just because things change?

    Note the steady deterioration of player participation over time in MC events; RL has lost about 20K (ie 1/3 of participating players) in the last few months alone. The fewer people who play, the more RL must charge to try to "encourage" you to pay up.

    The current MC event was planned for the sole purpose of forcing players to spend gems. Why they would add a track which only ~300 players have (Adagio Flow) and to make it even more $$$ they made the track in such way ... too many crossing object in front the camera and the camera going way to far so the GPU have to draw higher amount of vertices, combined with the fire and smoke ... even my oneplus 5 starts losing fps. The increased price (7 gems?) for resting timer is also a bummer ...

    At the end of the day, its only the cheaters who don't give a f*ck and keep spamming the leader board... oh, well!?!

    Guys think about strategies to overcome gems.
    What i do is purposfully fault a ton at last checkpoint.
    Then i try my best at a perfect run.
    If i mess up I fault but due to the high faults i will beat my opponent.
    I continue until i know, that my time will be well in the top 1%
    Check my milestones on trials.bonxy, it works (IGN is stef2499) not my forum acc!!

    It's a good strategy but when I've tried it after a few attempts I forget to fault at the end and the strategy breaks down. Another downside is that you never get to race against a stronger ghost.

    Lately I've been getting infinite retries (but have to watch infinite videos). When you're on your last attempt and don't have a good run, just restart the track. You'll be prompted to spend 4 gems or watch a video. It's a bit disruptive but then again so is faulting a bunch at the end. Keep in mind if you cross the finish line you can't restart.

    Yes i have done that before too lol.
    Another time i felt confident that i had my time but i was a bit too slow
    If i can ill practice it on my map first tho, that way I can use a good ghost... or I'll google one, yoshiki or carterclem etc. probably have a video about it
