Honestly can't believe no RL employee even commented on this thread. Kinda expected it but so disappointing. I'm posting this comment in every thread about tournaments so I know if not one of them get a reply then the forum employees don't do anything for their job.
So I hit exactly 50 tournaments yesterday, and look what is happening now when i complete more. It doesn't let me look at the leaderboards and I don't even know what tournaments they are so I can't see if I have a better time on those 6 (soon to be more) tournaments. This is why I asked the question a few days ago asking if there is a limit on how many tournaments will be saved on the closed tournaments page, clearly there is or there is a bug. This is also why I suggested making a hall of fame for the overall best time on tournaments, making the closed tournaments not the only thing you have to rely on.

Hello,
You posted on a Friday some questions that require some technical investigation. We are Monday morning, so I guess you can understand we didn't check that during the week end.
Also, your ton (about RL doesn't care) doesn't motivate us to help you or to discuss with you. If you want to have some interesting and constructive discussions with us, try to not make us angry when we read you
Also, we're not forced to answer every topic, there are just too many of them. We'll answer when we have something interesting to say about it.
We'll think about the improvements we can bring and how. We'll report the bugs as well.
Regards,

Sorry for the tone. It just gets so frustrating when me and so many other people post questions on the official threads and then don't get an answer and other people post things after us with random stuff that is just general chat and then RL seem to snap on that and then reply to them and leave the legit questions to gain dust unanswered, the tone seemed to help get an answer
I'll try refrain from the tone, thanks for the reply tho, made me happy to see I got a reply, Venomz.

Yeah, posts on Saturday or Sunday are sometimes missed as those are our off days, even though I usually check out the forums on my days off.If you post after 5pm Eastern time on a Friday (or day before a holiday), then you likely won't see a response until the following Monday (or non-holiday).

^ This thread was done on the morning of Friday, at around 10am BST, which was why I was confused cause everyone at the office who is on the forums had the whole Friday but yea, it's fine now that it's been answered and hopefully something will be done about it. The undefined list will keep on going up xd dunno if it will need a patch and if it will I hope it will be on the 29th July cause otherwise I will be stacking up100s of undefined tournaments and the times on all those will be lost

Friday was Independence Day, a National Holiday in the United States, and I was at home.

Hi NSPIV,
(Edit: Shifty answered before me ;-)) Except Friday was the 4th of July, so Dan was out of the office as he's based in USA
As a general rule, send a mp before getting angry when you feel you have been patient enough. 
I have a few information for you:
- In the next patch, the limit of closed tournaments is 50. (so basically you can't see the "undefined") It's done to limit server load. (there is not a lot of people who're going to check 50 tournaments in the past ;-))
- The tournaments closed are deleted after 3 months. (because it's not a good idea to keep something growing on a server)
Something we could do:
We could use the connected website (link : http://trials.ubi.com/trials-portal/...yer-stats.aspx ) to do some "cross-platform-best-all-time" tournaments leaderboards
For each tournaments, you would have a leaderboard (the same way you have the global leaderboard now).
So we would have the "all time tournament best" but we would have it cross platform as well!
I can't give any date for that, but I could check if we can make it happen.
Regards,

^ Yes! Having a cross platform leaderboards for every tournament would be perfect and probably the best solution because like you said you can't have someone on a server to keep growing as it will eventually overload. Thanks for the quick update and thanks for trying to make this happen, would make playing tournaments 100x better because right now there aren't any actual leaderboards for them because not every plays every tournament and gets their best time. Cheers Eno, and again I apologise for jumping to conclusion, didn't know it was a holiday on Friday as I'm from UK

This is my list for tournaments suggestions and improvements
Main Suggestions
-Tourny's need more rewards such as money, global score (Explained later) and other random things..maybe rider/bike customizations?
-The Tournament should not close after a short amount of time, maybe make the list a lot longer of tournaments and run for like a month or two?
-When the Tournament closes there should be a section that when you press X you can enable other tournaments that you did not take place in that other people did.
-There should be a tournament Leaderboard much like the SinglePlayer Leaderboard and if not, it should count as a ton more global score.
Tracks Within the Tournaments
-They need to have much variety (I know your trying hard Shifty Thanks BTW!
)
-A beginner tournament should only have beginner tracks and no extreme ones. (Same follows for higher levels)
-There should be a lot more tracks in some of them and some of them are too much like the Endurance tournaments in Evo and HD so they need to be shortened and then there should be 1 VERY long one (maybe all tracks of all difficulty?)(Read DLC section below for this)
DLC Tournaments
-There should be tournaments for the DLC's as well with all of the suggestions implemented. However, if there is a Tournament Leaderboard, then all of the DLC Tournaments should count toward that main leader board (and if RL chooses to make Tournaments count to global score the DLC Tournaments should count to the Global + DLC Leaderboard not the main Global.
-DLC Tournaments should be located within the tournaments but not released and cancelled at the same menu. There should be a separate menu that lists all DLC Tournaments and then an option menu to only show certain DLC's for the Tournaments
Side Suggestions
-There is no point to restart the track within the tournament only to go back 1 CP so the restart button should take you to the start of the tournament not the start of that track (Very Important)
-There should be an option to race people not just friends and also there should be an option to view replays
