    Chances are...I'm worse than you. And you don't even know it. :/

    I apologize for my somewhat forward Thread Title, but I wanted to get some attention to point out that I am in the Top 20 Riders on the iOS Frontier Leaderboards. Ive never been ranked higher than 5000 or so in any trials game before so I believe my high ranking is frontier it due to my high tolerance for the BS this game throws at you. There is no way im the 20th or whatever best rider in this game. Most likely the truly good players quickly get annoyed and give up at all the crappy grinding this game throws at you. its a shame this gaming system turns away so many of the good players but there is only so much a non insane person can take before they throw in the towel.

    so next time you happen to see my name high up on a leaderboard just remember that this guy has just put up with a lot more than you but hes probably not better than you.

    Ouch! Wasn't trying to take away from anyone else. Was just trying to get some attention to my game. I've been around since HD and have bought T2SE and played the flash version of the game. I even believe that the True Fan program be reinstated so xitooner can get what he deserves. I may not be in the top 20 on console or PC, but I have a chance here with Frontier. I'm friends with a good portion of the Top Riders on XBOX systems, and they know I can hold my own. And I'm a fanatic about the Micro Donkey. I just happen to "click" more with Trials Frontier. As much as I hate grinding, I do it for the love of the game.

    Since Purchasing more Gems to unlock Expert Island, all sorts of Tracks have been showing up. You will see me advance pretty quickly towards the Top when I have all the tracks unlocked, including the 2 ANBA Tracks I haven't unlocked yet. ANBA started working 2 updates ago for me, so it's been a long haul beating times.

    Do a Google search for "the donkeyholics" There's 2 versions. One is from the old forums and the other is how it got transferred to the ubi-forums.

    Heres the link for the Ubisoft Version.
    http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php...elcome!-Forums

    It's a page/thread I made for teaching people how to ride the micro donkey and techniques needed for passing extreme tracks using it. Its died somewhat as there has been no new donkey stuff for a while, but you'll see it more often when it more stuff gets released in the near future.

    When the Donkey gets released for Trials Frontier, I will own with it.

    Your post did make me laugh, I to think the same I'm currently 10th and will maybe go higher when I finally plat the bloody quagmire and improve the tracks you, Ch4er0n, xLGZ, eflixxx and eldroo keep overtaking me. The notifications are good but I'm always like oh for gods sake another one!?

    I appreciate the sentiment, and can see where you are coming from; I do think its a little ironic I am this dedicated to a game I didnt spend money on and am always trying to warn people about spending on....

    I wasnt around for the "True Fan" stuff on the older Trials forums, but I got the impression that it happened at sometime in the past, and didnt end well? Just curious...

    If thats mostly what you are doing, you seem to be doing quite well.

    One of the few changes that I agree with for the transition from Evo to Fusion is the removal of the TF and wrenches. They did more harm than good.
