Imagine the following situation:
You take a nice 30 minutes on a rainy afternoon to give an old game a shot you have not for several month.
The result is obvious:
After several crashes and a car moving snake lines around the road you eventually finish the first 'boring' part of the track while of course losing a lot of time there.
Thinking 'ah well I gave it a shot' you start driving the track and with some luck you manage to do 1 shortcut after another making the overall time decent.Of course it does still not make up for the lost time due to the fact it's just 'a try' and not an optimized time.
What would happen next?
Ah well there are officially no teams at kalpens but since you received some fake times from your fellow teammate placed 1th on zakstunts you decide to send your replay to your teammates to show them your shortcuts.Maybe they will win if they find time and motivation to optimize their time using the same way.
After staying up next morning you would eventually check your e-mails:
BANG! There's an e-mail from 1.09.03 somewhere around 1.33 am from a fellow teammate.What might that be?
I mean the contest is already over!?!?,or is it not?
Checking the e-mail the solution is simple.It's a great time driven by super duper teammate Alain.
First thought:Wow with that time he might have won,Great!
Second thought:Ah well he could have send this time around before the contest was over like I did.
Of course you would curiously want to take a look at the great winning replay just received from your teammate.
Expectations are rising! What shortcuts might he have found?
Watching the replay you bite your teeth into the table.HARDER! HARDER!
The replay you are watching is an exact copy of your replay with the only difference the other driver obviously took some time to avoid driving snake lines.Yes,he optimized the replay taking the same way and thus copying your replay.
First thought: Um ugh why didn't he send his replay around before the competition was over if he decided to copy your replay?You quickly figure out this would be obnoxious and unfair behaviour.Not that you would have driven again if you had received his replay.But just the fact he copied your replay would somehow give you the right to watch his before the competition is over.And then again he didn't know you had no intentions to drive anymore.
Second thought:
Thinking about this rude action you are brainstorming your mind.What to do?
Go to the message board and start a flamatory post yelling at your teammate because of his obnoxious behaviour?
Ok flaming is fun and maybe it helps to release some steam but then again there's already to much flaming and nonesense on the forum.
While thinking a bit farther you get a third thought:
You would write a small(ok not THAT small) funny story around it to convey your views to your teammate.That way he would know what he did wrong and all the others might have fun reading.........
