It is regularly asked, has science gone too far?
And today EE is proud to announce that yes, yes it has. In the space of 10 real minutes Leo Upton was asked to ride 55 hour records on the 26th April 2021, totaling 2 172 612m of the Canadian velodrome, pushing his physiology not just to the limit, but beyond it.
The more astute amongst you will already be wondering how 55 HR practices is possible since each attempt costs 2 DP and 55*2 > 100. Simple. Leo is not bound by the same rules as us mere mortals, he dug so deep that his DP dropped to -17.
For anyone interested, -17 is not a limit, Leo just got bored at that point. Also, good news, race break works fine with negatives (I was slightly concerned that race break would maybe just continue to increase the magnitude of his negative DP in some weird bug). The 3DP he gained was between ~6pm last night and 9.30am today. (This suggests he is gaining DP at about 5DP per day which I've seen elsewhere listed as the limit)

for anyone after an update. Leo's TS when he was negative DP had gone to N/A. Now (having not raced since) his superhuman achievement it has gone to 18%, not sure quite what triggered the change back to an actual number since I thought it had also been N/A when he had positive DP last time I checked
still, only ruins _his_ team spirit, right? irrelevant for a captain :P
hahaha, nice spot there hadn't noticed the TS
All or Minus Nothing :)
At least it properly ruins TS.
do post it on the forum or via PM to Nick or the Don. I had the same idea as Navarone.
well, I guess doing so would lead to a ban, so I would not advise anyone to do it.
oh god, if that works then I fear I may have unleashed a monster
his cousin Quinlan might be interested in doing so to be in top shape for Cali ;) imagine being in TF with 100 DP and 99 RS
funny thing is, if you continue doing this hard enough, you might end up with >100 DP again, when the variable holding DP underflows. make a script/macro to do that for you, and forget about race breaks and missing top forms forever!
