In 2018-2019 I spent months gathering as many ninja warrior results I could by going through old social media posts, videos, and asking ninja competitors myself how they did on outings in the show. I had come as humanly close to possible to getting all the results without getting direct help from the show itself. I made documents, spreadsheets, and counters of obstacles completed by ninjas from seasons 1-11. When I turned 17 I decided to step out of ninja warrior stuff (that's why I haven't posted in over a year.) My question is where is my work? I sent it to Alex Cunningham to store and release, and in over a year I notice none of it is public. Why aren't they out? Are you guys interested in seeing tons of unaired and rare ANW results? I know I was, that's why I archived everything that I did. I can't reach Cunningham. Can you please ask him to release the work I did. Thanks.

Hey! I've been keeping it up to date but didn't release it publicly because I couldn't find you to sign off on it being released. I'll get it updated and release it this week!

I apologize for bumping this thread, but since I'm sure this'd be contributing to discussion, I'm gonna go ahead and say it, anime boy, I noticed in the ANW5 Miami Finals section of the spreadsheet thatoneuser posted, that Jason Gupton is listed, which is how it was in the presented broadcast, sure, but I'm pretty sure Jason didn't make the Top 30 in ANW5 Miami Qualifying. So what I'm curious on is this: did a competitor have to withdraw in between the two nights of ANW5 Miami (which would in theory make Jason compete instead), or was it a classic case of Jesse Cargill and Jerod Warf in ANW8 Vegas, in which case they were only there because (a) certain competitor(s) should've been disqualified the prior round? |

In Miami 2013 they accidentally ran too many walk ons. The producers' limit is 25. However in Miami they kept running competitors after 25 had went. This meant 135 ninjas ended up running the course. 10 ninjas who shouldn't of ran the course ran. At the time Jason Gupton had failed the Wall, and was sitting in 30th. However, one of the extra ten runners who shouldn't of competed knocked him out. It was decided that to avoid problems, they'd allow both ninjas to run in City Finals. Jason failed Salmon Ladder in city finals, but for some reasons NBC decided to air his night one fail. Something I've learned from investigating the competition is that NBC has a tendency to just erase things from television that might cause confusion, or if they just don't like the ninja they're presenting. That's why people can clear courses and be totally erased from television (ANW 5, ANW 6), you can just delete things that don't fit your vision for the show. |

Do we know who the other walk-on that was allowed to run in City Finals was, by any chance? |
