Challenge #802, TTRR Challenge Week 313
Danger135:
Wrong scheme used? TTRR Antisink, but I saw worms sinking!
Kaleu:
I never thought I would criticize mablak for lack of sportsmanship. Last time I checked this challenge was like 7 minutes before it closed and there were no replays submited by him. (It says he will receive 20 points and it still needs to be approved so I am just assuming he sent it in time.)
Sincerely I don't know, for sure it can be treated as a tactical submit to reveal your record in the last minute so you can't get beaten but for me it's a dishonest move.
Anyway, I was never into TTRR challenges (at least not as active as now) so I don't know how participants treated it in the past.
To fix that, maybe we should have a system that hides replays and records and would only show participants of the challenge. When the challenge expires the winners are revealed. What do you think?
Of course we would have to trust the challenge mods to don't go corrupt and giveaway the numbers.
MonkeyIsland:
You have been miscalculating. All the evidence is on this page.
(times are my local time)
Challenge expire time: Yesterday at 10:00 PM
Mablak's record time: Today at 05:33 AM
Mablak submitted his time 7 hours after the expiration date of the challenge.
There's also a button on this page which shows challenge's participants at the time challenge was active: "Records in challenge's time". That also excludes Mablak from the list.
But the main question remains: If a player notices a challenge in the last hour, is it unfair to submit a record for that challenge?

I was not sure if he sent it in time that's why I quoted this part, I just assumed he did because he got 20 points. Don't we get only 10 points when the record is submited after the expiration of the challenge? I can remember I once got a pop up warning that.
Anyway sorry @Mablak.

No, it's totally fair. But I think all replays and records should be hidden until the expiration of the challenge. If a player wants to submit a record after expiration, they will get less points or no points at all, just the standing. That's my idea.
The mystery is tempting, no one knows anyone's record, the dedication is greater to make a good time.

Ok, for the sake of experiment, I'll try to do the next challenge with the options to hide replays from downloading
