Extra beetles in 2011[edit]

During Canthan New Year 2011, as a result of some server glitch, there were two record lists for the top 100 racers. Some districts displayed one list while other districts displayed the other. Anyone who placed on either of those lists was able to claim a prize, but players that placed on both lists would only receive one prize. Due to the overlap, 37 players showed up on both lists. Therefore, there were 163 unique prizes available to be claimed in that year. Shayne Hawke 04:14, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Were there no Miniature Greased Lightnings awarded in 2013? --Silver Edge 06:04, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
No. 2012 was the last year that this mini was available as a prize from the Canthan New Year. 2013 saw the introduction of a different mini. I have just recently uploaded a video with scores and discussion by racers at the end of the event in 2013. Mentioned there is how nobody can get the GL mini from the rewards NPC, but the dialogue describing the rewarding of the top 100 racers still exists in non-English languages.
