Scaling? (well, I can't somehow guess which of too many answers it is)

You can see the scale from the size of the cycle wheel. That's not it either. To make it easier: the image was not post-processed at all.

That would have been on Nano Hex Killer

6 axes, good brake, low speeds, a few doublebinds to the left, turn back on yourself, a few doublebinds to the right?

I meant scaling as in, you could have scaled things up while rendering them.

Wow, this map.php looks neat.

That is possible in ordinary play? :o I admit I simply seized the opportunity when my connection collapsed and shamelessly used the infinite rubber that introduces ;)

That's possible? I didn't know that.

Maybe by a quite extra ordinary player. I was impressed when I saw it. Not so impressed now.

Oh, didn't think anyone might consider I could do this in ordinary play (I suck at speed-turning). Sorry to have provoked a false impression.

actually, continually pressing left and using brake in nano hex or octo nano lets you stay alive for ages! not as much as the pic obviously, but still.
