I was all alone in the instance each run took 90 sec exactly but I saved up a few at the very start as I started before the timer appeared. I finished with around 14 sec on the timer this is due to the fact that after last run I no longer need to run to the teleport.
I also used the trick where you run ahead at the end and jump on the small platform to the right instead of waiting on the closer platform on the left.
So there is no question it’s impossible to score any higher than this.

Since you have what appears to be a private instance, I’m fairly sure that anybody can score higher than that if they get their own private instance.

A private instance is an instance that doesn’t kick you when the timer ends because “map full.”. You can farm in there basically forever.

The OP is referring to the absolute max points that can be earned during a 30 minute match. This is outside of a match that bugs and never ends when the timer reaches 0:00.

Actually no you can’t I know because I was in an instance like that several times.
When the timer reaches 0 and you get full instance you can stay inside and redo the JP as many times as you want indeed however the score will no longer change.
Everything else works the boxed and snowflakes respawn and you keep getting presents on completion but you no longer score any points as the match is over.
So if your score was 10 when timer reached 0 it remains 10 forever even if you redo +100 times.

I got ‘stuck’ inside a bugged map a few times. (At the end of 30 min the map they wanted to place me in was ‘full’ so I stayed with an 0:00 timer)

I noticed something different that made me able to complete the JP a bit faster.

The snowflakes at the start seem to appear and dissapear on some sort of timer normally. So you might have to wait 3 seconds for the snowflake to appear at the start so you can start the JP.

When I was on the bugged map the snowflake at the start was Always there.. it only dissapeared when I jumped on it and then appeared again immidiatly. It made me able to start the JP instantly without the 3 second wait at the start.

I don’t know if it’s intended that they only dissapear when someone jumps on them, but then again if you’re alone in the dungeon no one will jump on them so they won’t dissapear at all..

I know it saved me a few seconds everytime when I was alone. I’m definitly not a pro tho so it didn’t do me any good :P

No, it’s possible to be stuck alone in a regular map. There’s something wrong with the system that allocates players, because I was once on a map that started full, was down to 5 people halfway through the timer, and only started to add people near the end (managed 17 jumps because of that).

I don’t know if it’s intended that they only dissapear when someone jumps on them, but then again if you’re alone in the dungeon no one will jump on them so they won’t dissapear at all.

The snowflakes start to break up after someone jumps on them, they’ll stay if nobody touches it though. You can see this behavior if you’re in a map with other players, but are doing a path that nobody else is.

Makes me wonder if 21 is possible …

At the end, you can save around 3-5 seconds by jumping directly into the presents rather then jumping back onto the trail after waiting for the boulder to move past. Its a tricky jump that might be a little tough to hit 21 times in a row though.

Oh you are overestimating that little trick at most you can save up 2 sec unless you get the bad falling snowball spawn where you have to wait for 2 or 3 sec then continue. But I had a good spawn thus I didnt have to. However 21 could be possible as I had to let the first rolling snowball pass so if someone can somehow save up 2 or 3 sec on snowflakes and rush against the snowball then maybe.
Even so that would probably be pushing your luck as I doubt you would be able to succeed every time. I have seen a lot of people who push their luck like that and they ended up falling and as a result had worse scores than me. More over by rushing the snowballs it’s harder to reach the platform on the right at the end as the snowballs will be slightly ahead than normal. So I doubt anyone would be able to pull it off 21 times in a row.
