Im interested does riot pay out dkp to practice races? Or do yall just expect to win without the countless hours of practice? People seem to spend 12 hours a day tracking... I spend more time on test server than live sometimes.
Uhm, Statue only spawns naturally 72 times a year add in 4 quakes. Less than 80 statues a year. Im gunna go out on a limb here and say you have not been racing for Statue for 31 years, give or take. Even if you are counting just practicing the race, and each practice took you 10 minutes each, its still an impossible amount of times [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Uh oh, don't accidentally reveal you have no idea how long it takes to run to statue.

A practice run on the test server takes less than… two? Minutes to start the race, complete it, and use gm commands to get back in the right position and start again.

This is the exact reason other guilds cant race, they dont understand test server practice. I dont blame you for thinking the way you do, I would just like you to understand I can run a statue race in under 91 seconds and within 1 second be back and repeat it. And not all races need to be run to completion anyways.

Again, you guys like to assume an awful lot. You worded at you had "2500 races" I did not think when you mentioned this you were considering your practice runs against no one "racing for statue"

What is your practice to actual race ratio then? Seeming how you want to try and deflect by acting like you have more experience. I just ran a statue run on a test server i help run for P99 and got 97 seconds, was like my 3rd time ever doing it.

Even if you spent only 2 minute on each "race" of 2500 that 5000 minutes of your life you spent practicing "racing" for velious mobs in 2021.

Cringe and act like your level of knowledge is unreachable. Fine by me.

If you would like you can come on OUR test server right now and beat our best leader board race of 93 seconds for Statue. I helped set this practice server up so <ST> and <TSS> could use it, not because I had a desire to win some trivial race, but to help some people out who im friends with, and have fun.

Cheers.

Listen im not trying to brag, or make anyone else feel bad. Im saying we arent cheating, we are spending hours a week practicing on test server. You are taking other peoples comments and using them against me. I just said he practice, and said how much we practice. We have a small group of racers who have FUN racing and consider the competition to be between each other. We have more fun racing on test server than we do sitting afk at idol camps. Im sure you can understand

I'd be glad to hop on you're test server, just hit me with the info.

I dont know just going off the youtube video of Furoar FTE it takes 2-3 minutes to run up, figured would take another 2 to run it back down. Then add in some #zone commands and just normal time zoning, logging in, normal time spend doing thing. I dont think 10 minute per practice is insane. Lets call it 5 minutes per practice. Still an absurdly large amount to claim to have raced for. *shrug i got no horses in the race and dont claim to know about racing for statue or give a shit about being "revealed" lol

Glad TSS got an opinion on Karl races when they were being implemented. Clear evidence your guild has literally no idea what the fuck they're talking about LOL
