It's Need for Speed: Undercover with a Top 50 time of 6 minutes 15 seconds and 103 players under 6 hours. Never played the single player, but I'm sure it'll take me much more time to . Reminds me of the debug mode for the Jak & Daxter trilogy where you can literally obtain the platinum in like 30 seconds or so by just doing some very basic controller inputs (at least for Jak 2 if I remember correctly). Difficult to say if these situations should be an exception to the 6 hour rule since playing those games normally will indeed take longer than 6 hours and therefore wouldn't necessarily be unfair to use for the THL. However, there is always the risk of people abusing the method anyway to quickly rack up some last minute points I guess and imagine someone winning the CWC by doing that so I think the rule is definitely a good thing. In the case of the Jak games it can be checked quite easily though by looking at the trophy time stamps of course but for other games it might not be that easy to determine.

I understand all of the nuances surrounding this. Unfortunately, the rule is pretty clear that any game with a Top 50 under 6 hours, hacked/cheated or not, does not count. Maybe we can bump it down to 4 or 5 hours in further seasons to encapsulate some of these situations, but beyond that, I am not sure what can be done.

Yeah no problem at all, I completely agree that putting more nuance to the rule by allowing some of those games would probably only create more food for discussion. At least it's very clear now which games are allowed and which aren't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ShogunCroCop Posted November 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2020 Better late than never...we have scores.

I thought I was kicked for point inactivity last season. Your 203.5 points in the last season was enough to beat the season qualification of 120 points. That's why you hadn't got a pm at the end of the season and was automatically qualified for this Season 29. Here are the THL rules, from page 1 in this thread, for leaving the contest:8. Any player that scores less than 120 score over the course of the season, will receive a private message asking them to re-confirm their place for the following season. These players will have 48 hours to respond. Failure to do so will result in a force-retirement. You can only do this one time in a row since scoring less than 120 points for two seasons in a row will result in force-retirement. You can rejoin the league again after one season has passed. 13. If you score 0 points for the first 5 fixtures, you will be deemed inactive for the remainder of the season and automatically removed at the end of the season. You must wait at least a full season before being able to return. You won't automatically be added back to the league and have to request to join again.

Popular Post Psy-Tychist Posted November 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2020 So we are at the half way stage in the season, let's see how it is shaping up so far: Platinum League: @GTA_Darren is unbeaten this season, much like the previous season is proving he is no one trick pony. @Wavergray is his closest competition with just the one loss, maybe the revenge fixture will change the state of play? The remaining competitors are all in a fight for not falling into the red zone, who will keep their place and who will tumble? Gold League: @blu3st4rdust305 is showing what a powerhouse they are by scoring more than the entire Platinum League and pulling over 300 points in beating @Jello who sits in the second promotion spot. It's all very evenly spaced in the league with one spot going to relegation as @shadowhood1111 has already advised of his retirement. I wonder if I will get to match up with @ShogunCroCop in the future, or will we keep passing like ships in the night? Silver League: @AffectatiousDonk has left the comfort of the Bronze League and seems to be dripping in Silver as he stays unbeaten and looks to be heading into being gilded. Every other position in the league (bar last place which is headed up by @stupid0089 on zero points) is up for grabs. It'll be a scramble to see who will push upwards and who will trip downwards. Bronze League: @Flex_Da_Brent is on track to go for his maiden victory in the League but has stern competition from @Wdjat Prinny Doods and @Ichiban-Hybrid is keeping him honest. @me3lingual is in danger of falling out of their favoured Bronze League and into the depths on Manganese if some victories don't materialise soon. Manganese League: @dawnofthedead34 has made a great start to the season and sits atop the pack, but @TheScruffyton has made a charge and only sits behind on points earned. A challenge could be mounted from any of the other competitors in the league, but DawnoftheDead34 is the favourite so far. How is everyone finding this season? Hopefully there will be some exciting news coming soon to make things interesting 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
