Of course it is, see my proposal above recommending way points. I just see the pattern based on other posts above that people who used that are not making it to the leaderboard right now. Something only CCP can sort out. ---

ares should be able to complete it in the time i did, you can make it sub 2s align and get reasonably close to 20au/s with the booster and some implants, for reference my 19 min time was used without the booster, 1.99s align time and 21.1 au/s my run did use a jc so that shouldnt be the reason why the score doesnt appear, convict knows about the problem and is investigating so just make sure you record your runs from start to finish using shadowplay or something ---

Ok . But I don’t use any tricks and JC. A clean flight Eastern Route with maximum speed and my time 27.39 did not appear on the leaderboard anyway. and yes, it was on Saturday and it should be on this leederboard. Again greetings to the referees ---

Thought the time was only counted from starting line to landmark beacon. Does the time continue counting for the return trip to the starting line? ---

I swear the South Route is cursed for me. Apparently impossible to run it without botching something. I like it best of them all tho, it’s the most variety. ---

You have to cross the finish line in Luminaire. But I did only the first lap, not the timed one. The route is roughly a circle. ---

So the time is counted from the starting line to the landmark beacon and then back to the starting line? ---

There are several beacons on each route that you have to visit in order. First one is the starting line and last one is the finishing line on all routes, in Luminaire. Time is from start to finish line. ---

OK, so after visiting all the landmark beacons in order, you still have to go back to the starting line in order to complete the route. Thanks for the answer. ---

The start line and finish line are separate beacons, but they are in the same system. ---

The reason I asked - there was a reply posted about self-destructing clone and jumping back to start line to use a new ship. Think the post was about using shuttle and clean clone assuming ship would get gatecamped. ---

You can shortcut travel by clone/death jumping, and pre-staged ships. There are several options. ---

Yeah, just wanted to clarify how the event is done. Anyway, clone jumping seems like cheating to me but hey, that’s what CCP likes… ---

Updated with the yesterday’s results. To the folks who are reporting that they should be on leaderboards I’m having to follow up, please sit tight a bit longer. If you’re posting on an account other than the character name you’re racing on please DM me that character’s name (if it’s top secret) and your estimated time. ---

Hi I recorded a Northern run starting before I landed at the starting beacon in luminaire and stopped timing when I had completely stopped at the finish beacon that I had recorded at sub 40 minutes. Completed before last DT. ---

I should have a time around the 20 min mark on the eastern route that I completed over 24 hours ago. I also should have one around the 25 min mark from the day before that never showed up. I will be making my northern attempt today and will time myself and report it back to you. ---
