Jelle's Marble Runs Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Horrible weather conditions again, it’s turned into a year for the only the most spherical marbles.  Got to feel sorry for Crazy Cat’s Eye, ended up at a dead stop just 2cm short of the line, completely caked in sand.

Dry track conditions, and back to the classic Doornse Gat piste and what happens? Quality comes to the top!  A classic charging run from Red Number 3 and a return to the podium in second place.  Still plenty time to turn this around for the overall.

The bad news: last Sand Rally race before the Winter Break!  :cry:

 

The good news: Marbula 1 [ie Formula 1, but you’ll get sued for calling it that] is back on 7 November. :toast:

Added in an extra - round 5/6 - Marbulla E race as well.  From New York City, so a twisty urban track.

 

And a special Halloween race!

What is wrong with this conveyor belt? Speedy was losing there all the time - since Q2 through the entire race until his accident. Is it only in Minty Mania or will we see it in the next Marbula One races?

I knew there was some actual technical issues when they constructed the track (gates wouldn’t drop, then something else), but they claimed to have fixed all that.

 

Each track is constructed differently, but I think the conveyor belt is the same for the whole season. 
 

The best source of information for this stuff is the subreddit (r/JellesMarbleRuns).

    • I think I can live with the draw , not a bad group at all. just a week ago our mafia coach said his dream group is Belgium, Egypt and Haiti, he almost got that !   but it's really hard for me (and so many others) to cheer for this team, A mafia boss coach, disgusting group of players. I never had this feeling about any NT in any sport before but still the national team is the national team. you have to like it  coaches and players come and go, the team is what matters.   if the team makes it to the competition, I'm sure there will be lots of Iranians in the stadium despite the orange's ban, that will never be a problem. 
    • Belgium is the luckiest in this story
    • One of the worst possible draw for us. Group really easy but having to face  or  in the Round of 32 is devastating.
    • Always dreamed Gretzky will draw Slovakia was another moment I can already remove from my things to do before die list   
    • Finland have been awful in almost all winter sports, well beside ice hockey and cross-country from time to time, for a lot of years. It's very good to see them building people to challenge for wins again. Their new coach has done wonders it seems.     
    • 14th June in Philadelphia against Cote d´Ivoire   20th June inToronto against Curacao   and 25th June in Philadeplphia to kick out  home    Not easy, but not the most difficult group. Should be okay. Vamos
