So if this has been asked and polled before then my apologies, Please delete if so.
I've not started a topic in a long time so here goes.
As the title depicts, my question is this.
Do you believe Vlad would become Elite champion if he played the game?
Yes I'm talking about the game creator if you're living in the stone ages or are very new to the game. :)

he can do what he wants, so yes, he can just relegate the opposition and win

He has access to all the game code, he could finish wherever he pleased if he was a little more North Korean.

assuming he knows exactly how the game works, all the formulas etc? yes he'd win. if you assume he wasn't the creator, then it's an entirely random question which could be asked about literally any person.

Well I suppose in a round about way. That was also my question. Whether he actually knows how everything works.
Half of me is saying he should be able to boss the game as he knows every single inch of it and the other half is he don't know s***.
I don't think he could ;)
I just hope he trys to prove me wrong lol
I'd be happy for him to race?

The answer is: he would be a 43 time elite champion. He would just put randoms for everyone else and win on 0 CT...

Who is to say that he doesn't race with a different account? I'm sure he's never won elite but a fun account in rookie/amateur would do no harm and pass totally unnoticed by the community.

Knowing how things work and being able to manage effectively, are not the same thing.
I happen to believe that Vlad would be piss poor at the game, and would rage quit at the first sign of trouble.

I say yes. 10 or so years ago I've seen him racing in another game and he wasn't bad at all.

May be he can without any corruption on codes. He knows the concept than everyone. So got the best chance to win.

He might win it after about 10 seasons. He may know all the formulas and so on, but he doesn´t know how to manage his team successfully. It would take him a while to understand that aspect of the game. The formulas won´t help him with that.

Really interesting question, actually.
While he'd have a slight edge over everyone for properly understanding all the formulae to work things out perfectly, is that really a big difference to those at the top of Elite? I would say probably not.
As such, it would be all about his planning ability to build the package needed. While he knows what is involved for that, having not done it himself in over 40 seasons, would he do so successfully against the best managers in the game?
I know Vlad was successful at precious manager games, so he has the ability, you would think, so should certainly be able to compete but mastery of the workings of the game is not the same as coming up with the best planning.
I would say he would likely be able to reach and compete in Elite, and would likely make Champ one day, but it certainly wouldn't be in the short term and wouldn't be easy for him. And it wouldn't surprise me if a title never came his way.

If everyone in the game knew all the structure & formulae... there could still only be 40 people in Elite & one champion.

In an alternate universe where how didn't write the code for GPRO? Yes, judging by his success in the game that shall not be named, then hell yes :) He would wipe the floor with all of us :P If he had the motivation for it anyway, the desire to put in a lot of time in a game goes down with time :)

No, in this universe where he did write the code. But no cheating (ie. checking sponsor negotiation progresses, market offers etc.)
But I think it would still be hard. There are some really good managers up there.
