Figured I'd celebrate getting this by uploading the run that finally got me there since I'll probably not reach any other big milestones in this game :P
A while back, I reached roughly 2.97 million, but I never found the motivation to squeeze out another 30k in levels I didn't care for, so I let my SP decay. After bleeding over 100k points, I figured I'd missed my chance permanently. Also, some guy came in and started beating a lot of my state records, even pretty hard ones like B04 that I have over 100k SP on (shoutouts to potatolord2925), which hurt my motivation more than it ignited it lol. But after some casual level hunting, I gained a lot more points than I expected, and I deemed it possible, so I tried to learn some new strats on levels to finally push myself over that 3 mil mark.
This level was always a pain, but I really wanted to get that beginning nosedive right in a good run anyway, so I put in some practice and finally got a pretty awesome run - FOR ME -. Not even state record smh. But I'll take it.
Pretty safe to say that I'm done going for SP in this campaign. I guess it's an admission of defeat, but I'd consider it a declaration of personal victory. I remember when #1 in the state at the time (about 200k) was a pretty tall order for me. Same for 1 million, making the US leaderboard, 2 million. 5th in the US with 3,013,497 SP is a lot more than I ever thought I could do, and I can be happy about it. I'm sure I'll continue playing, but for fun and at my own pace. Right now, I'm having a lot more fun with Canyon and Valley (Lagoon, not so much...). I've improved a lot in Canyon particularly :D And I play Turbo some. There's a new Trackmania game coming out soon anyway :)
I'm probably gonna make myself a Trackmania specific channel, just because I'm sick of cluttering this one with these videos, but I do want to be able to upload them somewhere. I hope to make this one of the last videos of this type on my channel, if not the last.
