is this a draw situation or who won? someone who is familiar with boom race + racing/finishing stuff check out the endgame of this pls? (: it's kinda unclear, we both reached finish after the turntimer ran out, so the moment of the shooting decides or...? oO

This is very tricky.

If we start counting the time after the timer reaches 0.00:

If we start counting the time after the timer reaches 0.00 AND you both fired your weapons:

Which method should be used then? I think we should go with first one, since the custom scheme you guys were using had the option firing doesn't pause timer enabled, so the 0.52 sec you wasted after the timer reached 0.00 should be count.

This means that Hurz actually won this round.

If we won't count the fractions, then it's obviously a draw.

This is very tricky.

If we start counting the time after the timer reaches 0.00:
  • You touch the Finish after 98 frames - 1.96 sec (since you kept firing your bazooka after the timer reached 0.00)
  • Hurz touches the Finish after 90 frames  - 1.80 sec.

If we start counting the time after the timer reaches 0.00 AND you both fired your weapons:
  • You touch the Finish after 71 frames - 1.42 sec.
  • Hurz touches the Finish after 90 frames - 1.80 sec (same time for Hurz since he threw his petrol bomb before the timer reached 0.00)

Which method should be used then? I think we should go with first one, since the custom scheme you guys were using had the option firing doesn't pause timer enabled, so the 0.52 sec you wasted after the timer reached 0.00 should be count.

thanks for your comment ^^ I'm just gonna leave the decision for the senior management team of tus on this matter, also adding the fact that getting draws and finishing on the same turn in boom race is not rare at all. and multibooming changed everything drastically, so its a hard decision

It's a draw. The amount of turns counts. We've never counted frames for Boom race matches.
