Hey guys! I've seen a few people asking this question, and the easy answer is "NO". Track Central reminds you that tracks uploaded to Track Central will not be removed when you are uploading. Make sure that the things you upload are finished and working.
However:
Sometimes scoring on Skill Games doesn't work.
Sometimes you miss something obvious.
Sometimes a track/game feature seems to work, but doesn't.
Sometimes your events and triggers forget what they are supposed to do.
Sometimes your events cause my xbox to lock up. (Arghhhhhh!)
It happens.
This thread is where I would like you to post those tracks that you would like to have removed. It's not something that I will be able to do every day, or even necessarily every week. But having messages over XBL and forum PM that I usually read, but then forget about by the time I have time to remove tracks, makes me look bad, and it doesn't help anyone.
If you post to this thread, I would like to know your exact gamertag, and the exact name of your track. If your request is "Please remove all of Track 1, versions 1-50" then I might not ever get around to it. Why would you upload 50 versions of the same track?!
If I do not know you well, then I may need you to send me a message over XBL as well (Blarghhhh) and I will check to make sure that I am not removing another person's track just because someone else doesn't like it and posted to this thread.
If your track is removed, I will delete your post from this thread (easiest way to keep myself straight on what has been removed). Please keep in mind that this is outside of my typical work duties, and if it starts to take too much time, I will be unable to continue to remove tracks.
Also, I DO NOT have the ability to remove tracks from Gold Edition, so please only post about XBLA tracks.
PLEASE NOTE: Tracks that have been removed will still show in the "My Tracks" tab, but will no longer be available through Track Central.

At first you say the "easy answer is NO", but then you say to post the tracks you would like to have removed? Do you mean you are willing to remove only the tracks that fit the "However" category?Originally Posted by ShiftySamurai
Hopefully Shifty won't get too many requests or he may stop this idea.
I think it's great that he's offering any chance to remove something from TC.
I just don't want to see too many people abusing it.
I may have a look over my tracks to see if there's any reeeaaal stinkers

The easy answer is No because that is the easiest answer. The easiest answer is not always the best answer.Originally Posted by ZeroFault

If you were to wipe out a gt's entire list, would the tracks still remain in the hard drive for re-share?
I know you say they will be in My Track tab but if they were then re-shared, would that mess things up?

I would rather not remove tracks just to have the creator share the exact same track again. That's not why I am offering to remove tracks for people. With slight changes that happen to UGC after each DLC was released, some custom tracks have been rendered unbeatable. Those are the tracks I am really offering to remove for people.Originally Posted by ozy
If you just don't think your track got enough downloads or ratings, then you should learn from it and work on something new.
Please do not ask me to remove a track if you plan on sharing the same thing again.

Thanks for answering,Originally Posted by ShiftySamurai
Makes perfect sense of course...
Hello Shifty,
If you have time, would you please remove my track from Track Central? I got some user feedback about some parts that were a bit buggy if you use a Phoenix and I am addressing those bugs and testing thoroughly before reposting it.
Track Name: Blood and Rainbows
