Talk:The Gauntlet (Season 13)/@comment-27123099-20180119165458/@comment-31433854-20180119181340

It's difficult to disambuagte the two as there is virtually no-one who owns the car without having it upgraded. However, Amrosa's point is valid regarding subsquent runs. People who have the car continue getting 'easy' challenges and people without it are getting 'hard' or 'extreme'.

Who knows, maybe it is due solely to the random aspect of the gauntlet, but certainly not every one has gotten goals that could be done with R$ while others have. That by itself makes the whole nature of the guantlet unfair. Then combine with whatever backend monkey business might be going on, whether it's related to upgrades or ownership or both, and it creates a total BS event. It wasn't without reason that the Monkeys culled these things in the first place.

I upgraded to 86.3 and, while I got through in one go, I definitely had trouble, and I posted about it ;)
