    Who feels cheated by their ghost?

    As per the thread title, who feels cheated by their ghost?
    I swear that you can cross the line before it but you don't beat your time.
    It's driving me insane!!!!

    Ps. Please let me disable the ghost when I play.

    I think that the ghost is meant to give more of a rough estimate of your top run rather than being a perfect recreation. It would be weird seeing the flying spirit person zipping around in perfect tune with your fastest run.

    Who feels cheated by their ghost?

    I've had my ghost go a different route than my best time, is this normal?

    I haven't seen that, or at least not that I have noticed.

    Also, there are DEFINITELY times I am sure I finish before the ghost but still don't get a top time. It's annoying.

    I have just completed the same run and at the exact same time as an earlier run... and I was ahead of my ghost by about a full body length when i crossed the line... I agree with this thread.

    I know what you guys mean, but the Ghost clearly is behind the player...the Ghost even starts behind the player if you look carefully at the beginning of the course. Therefore I think they did
    this on purpose.

    I know the ghost starts behind the player but it still feels wrong

    Count me in among those players who would like the ghost turned OFF.

    What I've come to do....is see that my ghost is actually behind me at the very start. While it looks like it catches up quickly...I still run under the assumption that my actual Hero time, is approximately that same distance ahead of my ghost throughout the run and through the finish. So if you want to beat your time, you need to beat your ghost by a significant amount.

    I have 2 thoughts on ghosts:

    1) I too would love to be able to turn it off and on as I choose.

    2) I would like to be able to choose the ghost of my replay that I had to purchase to run against and not just my own.
