Title: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Arvo57 on 04/18/20 at 17:46:48 THE GLITCH WAS MADE BY ARTHUR ON THE 14 JANUARY 2021. THIS BOUNTY IS NO LONGER ACTIVE. ________________________________________________________________________________ It's been over 4 years since the Rainbow Road glitch was discovered and yet, nobody has managed to pull it off in a legitimate run as of today. Together with Amaya, I though of an idea to create a little bit of extra incentive for people to endure the grind for the holy grail of MKW glitches. We started a bounty that will be given to the person who first pulls off this glitch successfully. This bounty will start off with money from Amaya and me, but anyone who wants to see this happen will be able, and encouraged, to chip in what they want to make that moment just a bit more worth it for the person to first make the glitch. Reply to this thread or PM me on discord (Arvo#6376) if you want to chip in whatever you can. The money will be given out from the people individually with whichever method we can figure out (PayPal would probably be the easiest) or if someone has a better idea, please let us know. I don't know what I'm doing. Due to money being involved, we will be enforcing strict CTGP-only policy for this challenge. No exceptions, the run must be set on CTGP and be uploaded to the CTGP ghost database. If you break the CTGP anti-cheat to try to win this bounty, you are a very sad individual and will be thoroughly roasted by the community and not given the bounty. ;) The run does not have to beat the 3lap WR to receive this bounty, but there will be a bonus if the player who first makes the glitch also beats the 3lap WR with the run in question. The only thing you must do to claim the main bounty is to be the first person to complete a lap with the glitch that beats the flap WR (currently a 46.968). The run must be driven on CTGP with game modifications disabled and the ghost must be directly uploaded to the CTGP ghost database. Some useful resources: The original video of the glitch (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qprek2yUPkY) The closest attempt so far (by Justin) (https://youtu.be/mXhe8E7qhLc) CTGP installation guide (http://www.chadsoft.co.uk/install-guide/) Amaya's video about the bounty (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpEFWrHTez8) Summoning Salt's words of motivation (https://youtu.be/mmJ_LT8bUj0?t=1818) Donation list (in order of amount): Amaya: $50 Ross: $51.26 Benny: $40 ThomasUK: $23.74 Arvo: $20 Kjeld: $20 Loaf: $20 Tea: $20 Truepony: $20 Sam F: $15 Fonsbob: $5 Mango Man: $5 Total: $290 Donation list with added 3lap bonus (if the first ever glitch run is also the 3lap WR): Amaya: $70 Ross: $54.86 Benny: $40 Blake: $35 Arvo: $30 Sam F: $30 Ultra_Pear: $25 ThomasUK: $27.14 Loaf: $20 Kjeld: $20 Tea: $20 Truepony: $20 CallumSCO: $15 Justin: $10 Zachruff: $10 TomNL: $8 Fonsbob: $5 Leon: $5 Mango Man: $5 Total: $460 Flanders will also throw in a nintendo eShop $10 gift card for flap or $20 gift card for 3lap(thank you flanders) Ultra_Pear will donate an extra $25 if you get flap and 3lap WRs but burn out at the start (yeah he's weird don't ask me) If a person is in a financial situation to be unable to donate their listed amount straight away if/when someone pulls the glitch off, they should not be shamed for this. This is all done in good faith. (Assuming we don't find a way to put all of the money to one place with nobody being able to steal it :P) Donate responsibly, Game responsibly. |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by WhatisLoaf on 04/18/20 at 18:35:52 It's not much but I will pledge $10. SM64's bounty brought so much activity to the game and I really hope we can achieve something similar here! Good luck to everyone competing! [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by RosscoXz on 04/19/20 at 03:44:38 I shall throw in a 50 (not that it matters because I’m winning anyway) |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Justin, on 04/19/20 at 13:20:13 ill put in $10 only if the run is a 3lap wr |
|
Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Ultra_Pear on 04/19/20 at 17:34:04 I'll chip in $25 only if it's the 3lap wr. but if it's done any time soon I wont be able to send it in for some time. Idk, not expecting it to be done for a while anyway lmao |
|
Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by karter525 on 04/20/20 at 03:29:06 I would chip in a bit if I could, but I don’t have a credit card or anything. Some encouragement: I’m ranked 286th on MK7 players page, but I was the first American to get 3/3 rDC G and finish the course in under a minute. If I can do that with my poor skills, the RR glitch can be done. |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by flanders on 04/20/20 at 06:59:26 I’ll throw in a $10 Nintendo eShop Gift Card for making the glitch. If and when the bounty is reached, I’ll DM the code to one of the prize managers on Discord. Good luck to anyone who goes for it! |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Benny on 04/20/20 at 09:20:18 $40 from me if anyone makes it, regardless if it's in a run or not. |
|
Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by JT2K on 04/21/20 at 16:23:56 I will also put in some money.. 50$ as well. Make that bounty go really high and someone will eventually get it. Edit: has to be 3lap WR |
|
Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by karter525 on 04/22/20 at 05:51:20 Just wondering: has anyone tried the sneakster? Much lighter than the spear and only slightly less speed. |
|
Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Zachruff on 04/22/20 at 07:15:57 Ill throw in $10 if its the 3-lap WR |
|
Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Mango Man on 04/22/20 at 07:21:45 I'll throw in €5 if its neither a flap or 3lap record to make them feel better [smiley=lolk.gif] Edit: Sticking with the theme of making them feel better, if the run performed with pause buffered then since they likely wont win this bounty or count to any official rankings, I'll still throw in €5 [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by KingAlex on 04/27/20 at 07:31:32 Expecting 20+ people to remember/return to the community/actually pay up months (or several years) from now, should the glitch actually be done, seems a bit clumsy. It'd probably make more sense for one trusted, central party to collect all the money upfront until then. Someone like Troy, NMeade, or Sword that will likely still be active and stands to lose a lot should they run away with it (not saying they would, just in theory). I feel bad for all the veterans/noobs alike that are about to try aimlessly grinding this deceptively difficult glitch now ;D |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Arvo57 on 04/27/20 at 13:44:38 If we have the possibility to get a good arrangement for it, that would be ideal. This idea took off way more than I expected. I couldn't think of any way to set this up, but if one of the big names would be ok with holding onto the money that would be great. basically idk what im doing |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Kjeld on 04/28/20 at 01:17:23 I'd trust Arvo with the money [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Sam F on 04/28/20 at 03:25:43 I'd trust myself with the money |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Batman5112 on 04/29/20 at 02:32:29 While I won't deny this is a cool idea, I rather see a transfer of money go to players who are currently dedicating the most time into TTs and are pushing the game to new heights. It sucks none of the top tters across all MK games earn money from playing if you think about it. The closest is Sword. Also I find this bounty to be a little arbitrary. Be honest. If the track wasn't named Rainbow Road, would there be a bounty? What about other near impossible feats such as rWS glitch, 3/3 TF box clip, or 3/3 shroomless MT turnskip? Shouldn't the players responsible for current strongest wrs in the game (LC or rMC3) been rewarded, in hindsight? I know putting my opinion into action isn't exactly feasible. The community isn't a money printing machine after all. However over $450 for a single successful 3lap run exceeds all expectations. It does open the doors a little bit down the road, considering the money doesn't need to be in the hundreds. For example, can anyone be rewarded $3-$5 for finishing a new 3lap WR? The game is 12 years old, and we are at the stage where every new wr is extremely impressive. This would be amazing to see realized one day. Anyway good luck to everyone. What an opportunity [smiley=beer.gif] |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by RosscoXz on 04/29/20 at 04:51:27 A bounty only happens because the person putting it up (Amaya) wants to see it happen so it is always going to be arbitrary in nature, this has just shown that many more people are in the same boat as Amaya. There has been talk about other bounties for other feats in the game too which could happen. It’s not supposed to be some sort of official thing really |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Ultra_Pear on 04/29/20 at 15:32:50 I'll chuck in an extra $25 dollars IF AND ONLY IF the time gets both flap and 3lap records, but burnouts at the beginning. - So that's $25 for 3lap/flap records, and another $25 if it ALSO burns out at the start. This $25 burnout bonus will NOT be included if the run does not get 3lap/flap records |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by KingAlex on 05/03/20 at 09:19:20 I was legit gonna do that for 5-15 seconds if I ever pulled off the glitch, then drive backwards across the finish line. It was my main source of motivation. Unfortunately, the glitch turned out to be an absolute cunt and I never got the chance to [smiley=lolk.gif] I might put up a few hundred for someone to do that, but for now, don't want to commit to anything [smiley=ninja.gif] |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by truepony on 05/14/20 at 17:43:17 I set up https://rainbowroadultra.com to maybe help promote this bounty. Let me know what you think and if you have suggestions for it. I tried to make it abundantly clear that this thread is the final source of truth for the bounty and that I’m not the one organizing it. |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Arvo57 on 05/14/20 at 18:06:42 Yeah, that's really cool, awesome job on the website :) Also, we've been trying to figure out some changes to the bounty, with all the money being held in one place in the hands of a trusted figure of the community to ensure that the entire bounty can be transferred over conveniently. We definitely need to think about this for a lot, I've been doing some research about all this, when you're talking about handling money you always need to think about security and transparency of the process first. When concrete decisions are made I'll let everyone know, for now this is just a plan. I reached out to EZScape (the guy who organised the SM64 bounty) for advice on this and intermittent live discussion with the community will be going on NMeade's stream. To have all the money in one place to be paid is a much more convenient way of doing this. It lowers the ceiling of effort needed for donation since you don't need to hang around the community until someone makes the glitch and, we can ensure that the displayed bounty amount will actually get paid in full. Still, before we go through with any of this, we need to be as informed as we can to make sure it doesn't go to shit, arranging stuff like this is complicated. Also, if we change the logistics of the bounty like this we would likely have to get rid of the 3lap bonus stuff, at least officially. We could maybe have a trust-based donation for that on top of the main bounty or something though. Thanks to Alex and Batman for bringing up very valid concerns about this, this bounty was pretty rushed and I didn't expect this level of hype around it, thanks to NMeade for helping with the community discussion and once again thanks Truepony for creating the website. Feel free to respond with thoughts and suggestions, NMeade and I will talk more about the organisation aspects based on the community's thoughts (and hopefully the advice of EZScape). EDIT: none of the above happened |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by trigger863 on 05/19/20 at 23:59:52 This interests me, but I’m not going to do it. |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by flanders on 05/20/20 at 05:16:05 I’ll change my contribution I’ll give a $10 eShop gift card if it’s the flap record. But, I’ll make it a $20 gift card if it’s also the 3lap WR. |
|
Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Arvo57 on 11/10/20 at 10:04:02 UPDATE Yeah this is still trust based, we never got things figured out with Nick and scape But Phyz has promised to give out $500 if this is made in a 3lap WR by the end of this year. EDIT: Blake pledged $35, so the pot is now an even total of $1000 for a 3lap WR this year. (And $500 from then on) |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Malleoz on 12/07/20 at 11:13:52 I quickly put together a TAS which copies Arthur's setup from the ghost in which he lands on the other side. This should show that it is definitely possible to pull off the glitch with Quacker using this setup. The bounty will soon be claimed I reckon! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehzXjOi6HtE |

Title: Re: Rainbow Road Glitch - Bounty Post by Arvo57 on 01/13/21 at 15:41:47 Now that Arthur made the glitch this bounty has concluded. I will DM everyone who pledged with Arthur's paypal once I receive it. EDIT: Thank you so much to everyone who pledged for this bounty, I can't believe how many people have been so quick to donate the money on such short notice and how nearly everybody has chipped in to make this moment so great for everyone in the community. Thank you to everyone who pledged, big thank you to CF for the quacker strat and most importantly congrats to Arthur for actually putting in the time to pull the glitch off. This community can be so amazing sometimes. |
