Use the portal button on the home page. The hall of fame can be found under the Rayman 3 menu. You need the code provided at the end after you beat the game to input your score though.

Edit: Or just go with the link Plum posted that works too. :mrgreen:

Pretty sure it’s the code you receive at the end after you’ve beaten the gamr.

Back in 2003-2006 RaymanZone hosted the hall of fame scores, and it was sorta a competition that they called the lums race, essentially :wink:

The Hall of Fame (and the corresponding competition) were part of it, but the Lums Race referred to, if I remember correctly, the whole "Lums" system where you could earn the virtual currency and spend it on various goodies, and which partly inspired our Tings system.

Virtual goodies such as screensavers, artwork, desktop widgets, new ranks, as well as a "VIP zone" which I don't remember much about, so it probably did not contain anything of interest.

Those were fun times! Though it doesn't sound like much, those small details probably helped generate engagement on the site back then. It didn't take six months for this vibrant community to descend into anarchy though, and that's why this place was created in its stead. :hap:

They lasted a little longer than that, you can read more about it here. But they were already a huge mess by August 2003, that's why a lot of people left.

Presumably, that’s where several members got their “VIP cards” from

Where’d you get that information from? :| they lasted for 19 years to some extent

It was created by Ubisoft, so I think you’d be able to connect the dots from there

I’m actually starting to wonder what the criteria of becoming a moderator on RZ was, since most of them were just teenage trolls

It's fairly simple: the admins were completely inactive and, on the few occasions that some of them actually visited the forums, they made arbitrary decisions which directly contributed to the fall of the community, notably a bunch of unfair bans and choices of moderators. I think the people in question were just community manager interns who either didn't really care or know what they were doing, but in the end they had a great impact on the Rayman community!

Not really. The original RaymanZone lasted less than two years, and after that, they just reused the name for the Rayman section of the main Ubi forums. A couple years later, even the most die-hard members had already left. By the time they dropped the name RaymanZone in 2013, there was nothing left of the original website.
