You can disable ghost, for switching character you need a 2nd player to choose it, after that it'll be the same even if you play solo.

On the last spring, press Down + Y/X right after you touch it to get propulsed right into the blue thing and skip the orange platform. Saves 1.5 seconds.
Otherwise, boost a lot and study ghost patterns.

with so days left for weekly I just hit 1077m for silver I doubt it will not be down to bronze by the end with so much time to learn the course
I'll try everyday to see if I can improve my time

You have yet to master the boost+immediate jump technique I think.

Thanks, that little tip is exactly what I needed to get Gold.
Got it now. I was able to get down to 37sec. 31sec just seem impossible though.

Friend leaderboards are the best. My only goal most days is to get a time close to Zeer0id's. I'm not sure how well I'm doing though. :/

Holy shit I just figured out what this technique is and got 33 seconds on the daily challenge, which puts me at diamond, with 30 min left until it ends. I just hope my diamond status lasts till it's over...
Yeah, I gave up on that when I had Burnburn on my list. Oh lets just try and match the number one player in the world.

sucks I was looking forward to grinding this one for a few hours I don't want another bronze
Ouch. That sucks, on both the thorns and the servers part. They should probably look into beefing up as more and more folks are going to hit up that daily challenge the second it switches over.

crap can't believe I cannot beat my 15 damn another bronze to inch towards awesome 2
Yeah, I'm heading to bed right now, will try more in the afternoon, for now, Top Gear time.
Oh, feel free to add me peeps, my NNID is fmpanda.
I thought the point of that tree fall challenge was to collect lums going into it, and those organic environments are frustrating for that challenge.
So then when I understood it was just about time, what was bad is that only the second lum line, after bumping on the blue mushroom is actually an indicator to where falling. All the others are either totally off the path or like the first you have to fall just few centimeters away from it and then there's those spiked vines that seems to be randomly completely stretched or not. I was still able to do 10,06 though, but I don't want to do this again, too much trial and error.

So it seems Ubisoft may have removed the possibility to play co-op in the challenges.
I have the ghosts for the top times in the daily extreme challenge (Lums in Murphy Dungeon), and none of them are using boosts or other advanced strategies like in that first weekly challenge. I even managed to get 3rd place in there !
Anyway, here are advanced strategies for fellow gaffers about the 2 daily challenges :
Infinite Pit 250m
Vine door "skip"
Land on the first vine door to the very left.
On the right frame, if you press Down + Y/X a fraction of second after the vine door starts opening, you can go right through it while it's not completely open.
Also skips the preliminary ground-pound animation as a bonus.
Saves ~0"25.
Perfect ending ground-pound
While the second vine opens, try to hug the wall on the left until it starts to curve, then wait for a roughly a couple tenths and initiate a ground-pound.
With the correct position (within a couple of pixels) and timing, you'll hit the slope below in a way that pushes you at a ideal angle straight to the finish line.
Saves ~0"50.
Those tricks have low success rates (around 5% for me), but getting them both in a decent run grants you the sub 9.
However with a basic strategy (chaining ground-pounds and charge-attacks), sub 10 is way doable, and possibly close to top 10. I have 9"66 without the tricks mentioned above and it's not optimized, and Diamond Cup is at around 9"8x right now.
I'd recommend going for either of those tricks occasionally though if you need a fairly significant cut.
Murphy's Dungeon 150 lums
Lum duplication glitch
Near the beginning, there are two enemies standing on a movable platform.
Hit them both with a stylus, then the moment your character is about to hit the first enemy, lift the platform upwards quickly.
It will magically double the amount of lums granted by enemies killed (40 lums instead of 20) !
Since it saves a total of 4 seconds on a good run, you better try it everytime :lol

Bullshit if true, co-op was half the fun on the Murphy challenges. Wouldn't taking out co-op defeat the purpose of what they're trying to showcase with the Murphy levels?
Or maybe it's just that fewer people are playing now that the game's been out for a bit. I'd be shocked if they locked co-op away already. Heck, I'm not completely convinced they didn't just load up the game with all the challenges in advance.

Co-op still works, just not for the x-trem challenges, which is normal. I can't figure out how to get better than 30 seconds for the daily x-trem challenge. The damn cpu keeps skipping 2 lums and I cant figure out how to make it so that it wont do that. Also goddamn at the daily challenge, I cant break 10 seconds. I always get a good start, but the very end is where I always lose time by hitting the final chain or the ground beneath it. There was one time that I somehow by accident did the drop attack perfectly and it pushed me past the chain and past the ground propelling me forward without any stoppage, but I haven't been able to replicate it.
Same thing happened to me.
Awwww. It said I was on my way to winning Diamond a few minutes before the challenge ended, but all I got was Gold.
