Should Tree Hugger be disabled so the points wont count ?

Personally I think they should do that because it is not really a track anymore, It's more like a skill game.

You're completely right but at the same time there's also variables like. The people that actually got good runs are daisies out because, it not taken to account.
It's the sad reality. Also non forum viewers won't know any better.

Well that is true, but still I think most players would rather have it disabled instead of wasting either a lot of hours trying to get the ''hole in 1'' or have wasted not nearly as many on getting a good time on it but then again, THD had the bug/glitchy timesaver at the start which didn't get disabled either.

They should only reset the Tree Hugger boards if RedLynx has a way to fix the glitch.
If not, don't punish the players by disabling the boards for using a bug that RL overlooked. It's their fault, not the players.

P.S.> Glitched Tree Hugger is still better/funner than Physics Factory.

Trolling. 10 yard penalty. Mississipi. Second down. Factory is a great track and you know it!
Im not objective since its one of my fav tracks but there are dozens of in-game tracks that are worse
than Factory and the tree hugger glitch is absolute torture.

don't punish the players by disabling the boards for using a bug that RL overlooked. It's their fault, not the players.

i would have disagreed with that last week, but now that i have succesfully used the glitch to get me 7000 LB points i agree 100%!
jk, but i doubt RL will go through the trouble of deleting scores so the discussion (although interesting) is kinda pointless.

I tried to do the glitch and failed miserably.
So therefore I am changing my vote to YES, please disable Tree Hugger scores.
(Until I nail the gliltch, then please reinstate the scores.)

It's not fair with Tree Hugger because it is random luck, and then the guys who didn't do it are behind the glitchers. You get a lot of points with 20-30s off, so disable Tree Hugger, or redlynx should add a physics event which disables the physics of the log just after it fell down. This way, 99.9% of the replays won't be flawed, since the top 10000 normal runs are not staying on that log, and even if you stay on that log, it should not make any difference, but only stop that glitch.

Is this a bad idea?

Hey guys,

After taking a look at this particular glitch we've decided to try and nip this one in the bud before it gets out of hand. Currently there are a relatively small number of players who have exploited the glitch so we are looking at removing these scores. Players who used the glitch will have the score removed and global score recalculated. For now we will not consider this cheating but if players continue to use the glitch we may reconsider on a case by case basis.

Now this was something useful, thank you for doing something about it
