Race Format Changes (IDEA)
So the big thing I would LOVE to see is a speed mechanism, this is supposed to be a race! My thoughts on how to make it a little more realistic:
1. Make challenges time based with a target score.
- Example, once you hit 5000 in Match 3 your time STOPS. You and your partners times combined is your score for the round. Obviously some of the mechanisms may need to change in a tiny bit for some things (Deal, Weightlifting). Max out time per round per individual is 3:00. Target scores can be random.
LilGingy: 0:47
JesusChrist: 1:13
Team 1 Time: 2:00
Then rank the teams top to bottom and eliminate the slowest team
2. Add a time penalty based on rankings for the next round's time, make it incentivized to score 1st that round
1st Place: +0 Seconds
2nd Place: +3 Seconds
3rd Place: +6 Seconds
4th Place: +9 Seconds
etc.
2a. Have the "purge" be where the next round there are no time penalties
3. My thoughts behind this are we already have arena to practice scoring really high and I'd love to see this format become more race based.
Idk this might be a bad idea, but I was driving home and it popped in my head

I think a bonus and a penalty based on the average time the teams save their score. If a user starts their comp 30 seconds after the day starts and the comps are 90 secs. It took 120 seconds to play. If the other team starts the comp 5 secs after the start they would have 95 secs. The team's average is 107.5 seconds. The max time for DC is 240 seconds. So a person not playing will earn 240 seconds. The fastest team will get a +10% bonus while the last team will get a -10% penalty. Maybe the time stops when a transportation is picked to encourage people to end dc sooner if done early.
Personally im not a big fan of this but I love the time and thought you put into this! I think id like a style of race where what skinny said with the drama/uturns or yeilds and such.
I actually really like your suggestions!!! ill tag sin in hope he sees it
Skinny I AGREE!
we need roadblocks - one partner score counts only, partner swaps, uturns. drama
