With the next patch this post will likely be updated the last time and then locked and frozen in time, as balancing changes will render the majority of these times inachievable.
Secondly as Dutchy said almost all of these replays are broken at this point anyway, but a feature to make outdated replays watchable again is in the works. 
 
Edit: Patch #400035 went live. For current rankings visit the wiki or this new post now.

Hey everyone,

thanks again to everyone who participated in this tournament and to everyone who joined the stream today!
Special thanks to @itap for coming up with the idea for this event.
Here are the final stadings of the event:
Congratulations to all the winners.
You can expect the prizes to be sent to you within the next few days.
See you all at the next event!

(P.S.: I have added all of the replays to the main post)

Thanks for hosting the contest, it was really fun to participate.
I want to point out one small trick that was missed in the stream: if you place one defender near your first orb, the three nature creatures that will spawn in the west will not attack your orb but stay idle at their spawn position.

Can we see the whole ranking list? 

New Record for Treasure Fleet 14.47.8

Any Mauler questions? 

The grind was worth it after all 🙂 Nice that you described what it can mean to make a "perfect" run.
Thanks for the event, it was fun, desperate, annoying and fun 🙂

Finally a random draw for me !
Congrats to all the winners, can't wait to watch your runs!
 
(Btw, i never noticed that the positions of the stone camps were random o.Ó)

I just sent out all prizes.

This concludes all business concerning the Crappy Community Contest #5.

Boooo!

Boooo!

Hello Skylords, Skyladies and other Skybeings; and welcome to CCC #5 – the fifth Crappy Community Contest!
 
 
THE CONTEST HAS ENDED.
To see the winners, CLICK HERE. If you are just here to grab the booster code, there you go:  PROP-HECY-PROP-HECY
 

     
What are “Crappy Community Contests”?
This and future CCC's are meant to be small-scale contests with weird challenges, hopefully luring you away from well-trodden paths. They are small-scale on the organizers side too: there will be no stream, video or event announcing the winners. What's special about these contests is a participation price for the whole community.
     
What, when, where, how?
While the last CCC was about prevailing under harsh conditions, this one will be the exact opposite:
 
Prophecy, Prophecy, PROPHECYYY!

Mo has been chosen by the gods. All the forces of Nyn want him to become the new King
of the Fire Tribes - it falls upon you to fulfill the PROPHECY as fast as you can! 

This challenge is to win the Custom 1-player-map “CCC #5 - PROPHECY!”
on Expert difficulty as fast as you can.
This custom map is a copy of the campaign map Oracle, with two “small” changes:
You will have access to 16 Orbs (4 of each color) right from the start The gods have also granted you 10,000 additional energy As you can see, for this challenge your wildest deck building dreams have come true; you may combine any cards you want! The fastest Skylord will win this challenge, in the unlikely case of a tie, the run that has been submitted earlier gets the higher placement in the ranks. 
The contest has started with the release of this post – submit your entry through Discord (DM to Kapo#0116) or the Skylords Forum (DM to @Kapo) until 28.05.2022 23:59 CET  (= 7 days time total). You can submit multiple times, but only the fastest will count. Please note that the Top 3 Replays will be posted here in the forums. To reduce my workload, you may rename your file to CCC5_Time_<IGN>.pmv (e.g. CCC5_15.53.9_Kapo.pmv).
Battleforge automatically saves a replay file of every match you play, the last game is named autosave.pmv.  You can find your replays here: Documents => Battleforge => replays

What's the price pool?
Since this is not just a Crappy Contest, but a Crappy Community Contest, you may help with your participation to earn a price for the whole Community. If we reach more than 20 participants (unique players, not entries), we will unlock a Mini-Booster code for the entire Skylords Community. If more than 30 participants enter, the code will be upgraded to a Booster instead of a Mini-Booster. So tell your fellow Skylords to try this challenge – it may take some time, but it's an occasion to try something completely new, and it raises our chances to hand out a code for everybody. 
Of course, the fastest Skylords will get prices too, sponsored by myself, the Community and the Skylords Reborn Team:
1st place               5 Fire Boosters + Promo Swamp Drake
2nd place              4 Fire Boosters + Promo Rogan Kayle
3rd place              3 Fire Boosters + Promo Lyrish Knight
4th place              2 Fire Boosters + Mo
5th place              1 Fire Booster + Mo
6th place              Wheel of Gifts
7th place              Spitfire
8th place              Core Dredge (B)
9th place              Church of Negation
10th place            Cluster Explosion (P)

Last place              Juice Tank (x4)
For participation, there is a random chance to win one of the following cards:
Random Draws          5x1 Fire Booster, 3x1 General Booster, Forest Elder (G), Dreadnought, Firedancer, Harvester, Amii Monument, Enlightenment
 
Sponsors

If one or more mighty Skylord(s) decides to sponsor this event, please contact me. I would be more than happy to beef up or expand the prize pool, add additional random draws, or any other upgrades to the prize pool. 
The following prices have been sponsored so far:
Skylords Team        Fire Boosters (x20), Community Booster Code
@Kapo                Promo Swamp Drake, Promo Rogan Kayle, Promo Lyrish Knight
@Simplifying        Firedancer, Harvester, Mo (x2), Core Dredge (P), Church of Negation, Cluster Explosion (P), Spitfire

@Kemek              Enlightenment
 
* Simplifying, a player who stopped playing, also donated his complete account. This is the third contest his collection is sponsoring - he expressed how nice the community is, and he wanted to give something back through the CCC.
 
Special thanks and Conclusion
My very special thanks goes out to @CrazyCockerell, @Emmaerzeh and @LEBOVIN who all helped me to get this contest idea going - as it turns out, it isn't really easy to rework a campaign map into a custom map without breaking lots of stuff.
I hope you are having fun with limitless deck possibilities and loads of energy!
Good luck, give those Bandits a dose of Skylords Wrath they have never seen!

Hey everyone,
the rewards for the Convoy event (excluding the ones for the fastest expert times) have been sent out!
If you did not receive your rewards or got the wrong rewards, please notify me as soon as possible.
Kind Regards, Metagross31

Hey everyone,
sorry again for the long delay and thank you all for your patience.
I have finished analyzing the replays. So you can expect your rewards to arrive in your mailbox very soon!
I will also try to find an opportunity to properly show off the fastest expert replays during this week.
Regarding fastest expert replays, I will for now only send out your participation rewards, not yet the rewards for rank 1-5, in order not to spoil the rankings. If you are part of one of the teams, that submitted four expert runs and do not want to wait until the reveal, please reach out to me, so I will already give you your rewards.
I hope to see you soon in a replay reveal!

Hello fellow Skylords,
I have been wondering what everyone's favorite campaign map is and on what difficulty everyone likes to play the most. That is why I have made a quick survey to see what it is. 
Please fill in the form below: 
https://forms.gle/iPp97ho3ZLp4q4jz7
This could also be helpful for future events, so make sure you select your favorite maps!
 
 

We have often been surprised by "new" names that were far ahead in the rankings. Don't think right from the start that you can't do it "anyway". Especially with this Challenge I think it is very "newplayerbase" friendly. Especially because of the lack of teamplay through the restriction >only units<, the teams that often lead the rankings do not really have an advantage through the long-standing acquaintance and voice. Glad to at least make an attempt at the challange and look forward to reading new names of players who will be in the rankings.

gz...but the liquo...does it really have to be?
the card is already so often misused (everyone knows it in the RPVE games) Less experienced players will certainly think that the card is good for speed times - ITS NOT

I rly wonder what tactic u used for this. THIS IS INSANE!!!

Thanks again to everyone who played in this contest, everyone who helped to make it possible and everyone who joined the stream yesterday!
I am still overwhelmed by the large amount of submissions and positive feedback I received - I have received exactly 120 different replays, that were valid and counted towards the rankings in the end.
Since I forgot to show you the full rankings during yesterday's stream, here it is:
 
In case you are interested in which card has been used how many times, here is a list of that:
 
And finally, all submissions are attached to this post for download, so you can watch and analyze them yourselves.
I will send out the rewards soon, but it may take some time, becausue there are so many mails to send out.
Make sure to read the upcoming Community Update and stay tuned for more events!

Even though the map was super annoying, it was a very good event. I'm curious what the future brings!
