So, Ace Race...what happened?

To give everyone a clearer, more objective view of the situation, I present: the spreadsheet. It contains a list of every player's two times and placements and who disconnected (Keep in mind there could be more, these are just the names I saw in chat join/leave).

I calculated how many places players went up or down and how their time improved. They are color coded by team, and for your convenience I put three lists next to each other: The original placements, the new placements, and what the placements would look like if the only new times you counted were the players that disconnected. (This took seven hours).

Analysis under the cut

For the record, when the first player logged off (Captain Sparklez), there was 4:30 left, when the last player rejoined (Scar) there was 4:01 left, the first person (Dream) placed with 3:28 seconds left. they stopped the game with 1:20 left. And 5up, as far as I know, didn't even rejoin until after the race was over.

Fruit brought up the issue in chat at 2:29 left (after he finished), a few others agreed with him. Oli brought up redoing it with 2:07 left. I don't know whether the admins didn't notice or didn't realize how many people actually dc'd or figured teams were equally affected, but they announced a redo at 1:44. It was tight, they made a decision in 2 minutes and 17 seconds if they noticed everyone disconnecting. Or in less than a minute if they only noticed when people talked in chat, and they did stop the game 14 seconds later.

-

Now for some analysis, many players dropped a few placements and felt upset about it, thinking they did worse. This leads to them becoming more frustrated with the reset. I suspected they likely didn't, it was just there were quite a few really good ace race players that got discontented (Illumina, Fruitberries, HBomb).

The vast majority of players improved their time, often by a lot. The only ones that didn't were: Dream, Sapnap, InTheLittleWood, Smallishbeans, FoolishG, Badboyhalo, and AntVenom.

To my knowledge: Dream tried and failed to copy Purpled's skip several times, Martyn had a really good run the first time/tried skips, and Ant's trident didn't work/he tried skips. Joel, Sap, and Bad's were 0-2 seconds worse. I don't know what happened to Foolish (lack of morale ?)

As to be expected, everyone who disconnected improved majorly from 45 seconds to over 1 minute and 30 seconds. Most also rose quite a few placements, but not all. And not enough to account for all the upset in the new placements, so what else?

Well, those who practiced for ace race a lot, vod reviewed, and had experience was now void of those advantages. Now, people had a fresh run, they are familiar with the movements needed, and they saw other people do skips that they can try.

Bad originally had a massive advantage because he has a unique way he practices it that familiarizes the movements to him, but that's now gone, though he only lost one second, he dropped 14 places. Hannah, on the other hand, had never played ace race in an event before. But with the reset, she did and thus performed much better, gaining 6 places.

Almost everyone got faster times, but certain people with certain circumstances were more affected by it. So players, rest assured, you probably did improve the second time around, others just improved more (others being players that were previously handicapped).

(Also Dream, yes it was at least 10 people that were dc'd, Skeppy has not played in 14 months and it was Fruit and Illumina.)

I really hope this doesn't need to be said, but DO NOT use this as a basis to harass Scott or Noxite or any of the Noxcrew. I really hope this clears up some misunderstandings and make some people feel better, not make things worse. It was a tough decision, but I think it was by far the right one. You can see for yourself how much of a difference the disconnects made. Noxcrew does a lot every month to bring us the wonderful event that is MCC, Scott made the teams we're all so fond of, they just released the closed beta of MCC Island. No, things weren't perfect or ideal, but it was out of their control. Besides, we've only had 2 MCCs out of 24 that was this level of scuffed and I think that's a pretty damn good track record.

Ace Race is always so funny to watch, because no matter what perspective you choose, there's always someone on the team going "GOD WHY! NO— OH NO WHY DID I DO T— AUGH— WHAT DO— HOW— I HATE THIS GAME!"

Thinking about an MCC team with Oli and Wilbur. There would be a least 5 monologues. At least 3 musical numbers. It’s the least family friendly stream you’ve ever watched. Ace race would be horrendous. Is it anime music blaring, or the the Wii Trap Remix? We may never know.

#I’ve never watched Wilbur #those are just the vibes I get from him when I watch Shelby’s streams and the clips that come up on my fyp #mcytblr #mcyt #mcytumblr #theorionsound #oli theorionsound #wilbur soot #ace race #mcc #minecraft championships #mc championship #mcc teams

So glad Ace Race got to find herself after her messy breakup with Wilbur <3

listen i know this is mostly tw*tter drama but im not active there + im annoying + everyone should listen to me. so about ace race.

when you are running a competition, you need to decide what is the fairest solution for the competition as a whole. i get that its a little demoralizing to have your good score be thrown out. but think about it for five seconds. a QUARTER of the contestants got kicked in the middle of the race. even if dr**m got the exact same time on both runs, its possible for him to drop places simply because the people in front of him got kicked. one or two people having issues is vastly different from a quarter of the entire competition having their scored essentially thrown out.

so now the issue is how to fix it. so. you cant really just leave it. ten people (again, a quarter of the competition) 's runs got fucked up. in those conditions, anyone's win is illegitimate. (not that dream is known to care about the integrity of his wins. but). the most common suggestion i see is to let people take their lower time. this is, honestly, completely bullshit as well. this is essentially giving anyone unaffected two chances at completing ace race, while anyone who got kicked has only the second chance. this is why noxcrew only had one choice, the flat reset. nobody has an unfair advantage this way. AND NOBODY HAS AN UNFAIR DISADVANTAGE. this is the fairest solution by far. its mind boggling to me to see people attempting to claim that this is unfair to the winners of the first round because like. their wins were illegitimate?? who is to say that they even WOULD have won if nobody got kicked?? noxcrew has a tough choice but they chose fairly and were sportsmanly about it. hating on them AND ESPECIALLY SCOTT SMAJOR, WHO IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE DECISIONS, is unbecoming, childish, and toxic. cut it out.

#in the spirit of not being excessively nasty i have omitted most of my opinions on dr**m and his sportsmanship. #but i see FAR too many dream stannies out here acting like he was gracious or something and not like. #the worlds biggest whiner loser baby. he is lucky scott still lets him play. he has been nothing but rude and unpleasant to that team. #tldr: shut up complainers you're annoying and hypocritical #mc championship #scott smajor #noxcrew #ace race #dream neg #mcc24 #discourse #long post #goodtimeswithscar
