S2 Forgotten Round

Season 2 - Week 15

Submitted by The Council


About

The Forgotten Round was a round introduced by the Council, we were seeing some growth mid season and we didn't want people to miss out on previous rounds.

The concept was to allow people to play a previous round with the same rule set, without affecting the standings of that round retroactively, but still award points. It is now a staple round in the current format of the Wheel giving both regulars that much needed break and those who are strapped for time a chance to go back and compete in a round they couldn't.

Intro

@Deccyf

So this should mix up the results, this round is solely for those who haven't competed in every single game thus far.

So as people have joined the Wheel at different stages they haven't been able to compete in every round.

Therefore, the rules are:

You are only able to pick a previous game in this season if you haven't played it. (You cannot resubmit an old run)
Your scoring will not affect historical results. However if you do beat times and scores you will accrue the same points you would do if you participated that round.
You can only pick one game.
You have to compete under the same conditions and rules as stated in that round.

Outro

@Kythias

Looks like this was a really fantastic idea that someone came up with, that person deserves to have some extra points just for being so amazing. But in more relevant news, quite a few people jumped at the chance to score some extra points, and particularly heat up the race on that coveted 3rd position.

Okay I lied, that was in reverse submission order.

Reminder: This does not impact original placements, or the points awarded - this is a supplementary round. We borrowed Q's timesplit technology to make this happen.
