4.75* - Crowley Lake - jook13 - Extreme - Fantastic theme and extremely good use of theme intertwined into the obstacles. Huge attention to detail. Good variety of obstacles and very consistent difficulty of them. Only thing I would like to see is possibly an alternate route at some point or maybe a little bit better shortcut somewhere.

cheers mike! Thanks for putting in the time to check it out. I have never liked tracks with multiple routes, but that is just me. I like the idea of everybody being on the same level, everybody takes the same path. Plus, almost everybody just copies first place run anyways. But yeah, different strokes. Glad you liked it though!

I definitely understand your point, that it may not even be worth doing a different route because all the players will just take the best one. However, in my mind (which is not a mind that creates tracks), there are two ways that make it "worth it" to do a shortcut and/or multiple route section.

1. Make the "faster" one difficult to pull off or at least make it difficult to pull off quickly. Make the "slower" (but easier) alternate route so that if you do it fast, you can do it faster than someone who pulls of the difficult route in a slow (or even average) way.
2. Make the two alternate routes exactly the same speed when taken at their fastest speeds, including momentum into the next obstacle.
