Is it just me, or did it look like there were rungs on both sides of the final tower as if it's a transfer obstacle?? And what is up with the new steps obstacle? Oh yeah and I'm happy Circle Slider is back

I never said the last stage 1 was "OMG SUPER HARD" but I do think it was harder than this.

Damn another trailer already? Well it's only 3 more days so I guess it's expected. Those "bright" runs in the trailer, those guys were only testers right? I mean a bright 2nd and 3rd stage run but a 1st stage run in the night? How is that possible? And that guy on the jumping pipe obstacle looked like Akiyama.

All Stars are still top billing, it seems, and by a big margin. They didn't even shown Yuuji. Mixed feelings about the first stage. Two log obstacles, a trampoline and a springboard seems a little bloated, or at least inelegant. The log obstacles are good at weeding people out, but IMO they get really boring to watch after a while, so having both of them is going to be a trial. The whole stage remains to be seen, as long as it's not too easy and not too long, I'm happy.
Second stage looks like the difficulty is ramped right up, which is cool. I'm beginning to subscribe to the idea that there might be a spider walk in there somewhere if there's no JS in stage 1.

I have to agree with Obakemono. It is nice to see some old obstacles back, but at the same time. I think it's a little too much. Log Grip got kinda boring after awhile and having the rolling log as well won't help much. I wish if they were going to bring back the rolling log, they would just take out the Log Grip. Maybe in the next tournament or so.

Excuse me for asking, but why is it everyone putting their posts in spoiler tags? Surely the fact we are on the 25 board and the (SPOILERS) in the thread title is fair warning?

You'd think so, wouldn't you? I'm all for the phasing out of rampant spoiler tag usage, but for now this is how it is. I believe there were some problems last time with regards to this issue, not sure on the specifics.

I think one new person complained (never came back iirc) and so we all were forced to use this.. again.. why someone would open up a spoiler forum and then complain about spoilers beats the heck out of me.. so whatever

WOW is all I can say. I agree with many of you that it seems to be the right level of difficulty for stages 1-3, but we really won't know until Sunday. Not sure if I like the Rolling Log back but happy to see the Circle Slider back (one of my favorites) and that new obstacle looks fun. Stage 2 will be insane and stage 3 near impossible - the way it should be. I just hope we get to see all 3 stages' obstacles but noone makes the final (yeah right!).
Can't wait...Hey Arsenette pass the popcorn already, wil you?

Just thought about something. To me, it looks like the bar in the daylight jumping pipe slider is slightly shorter than it is i the nighttime run. but maybe it's just me.

This might be my imagination, but is the announcer shouting "(something) YUUJI!!" when that guy fails the new balance/rope/whatever obstacle? Granted, Yuuji is a common name, but still.

IIRC we already discussed that. The only Yuuji that could be is Washimi/somebody else, since the OTHER Yuuji is 100 and Nagano is 99 and he's running at night.

I was honestly worried about that when I heard the trailer.
