That's the most sensible conclusion to draw as those also change color and become red on top of their number contradicting that of Rayman 2.
Exactly! Although we both know that the lums inconsistency is probably the least of the canonical woes that the ubiart games brought into the mix xD

To infinite or over one million for the final unlockable in Legends (indeed, Rayman needs the energy of 1000 Hearts of the World to get over his embarrassment and start walking around naked)! But this is normal, as a debug string in Rayman Legends explains to us, lums can have babies:
Rayman Legends debug build wrote:A lumschain with 0 lums is not a lumschain... Please, give this chain at least 2 lums so that they can have babies :)
Yep, it's canon.
That's right, I forgot Legends. :facepalm:

Is it finally time to bump this ten-year-old thread? :hap:

Yes, that's basically the best explanation. Remember that these Lums actually appear as early as Rayman M, in the Race minigames. They look very similar to Rayman 2's Yellow Lums, but they have eyes (like in Origins) and clearly aren't part of the 1000 that form the Heart ;)

There will a betting thread again for those willing to wager Tings on such predictions!

Aw, man. Earlier in this topic you told me 1 ting is worth 0.0004 €.
Considering you get 1500 tings for participating on Record Day and 15 tings per post, this means I thought I had already earned myself a grand total of 0.624 €! Just need to write about 17000 posts to make at least 100 €. If they're going be free now, my plans are ruined!

Just think of how many Tings I could buy if Hunch would sell some to me, Droolie.

I'm tempted to say 1, so as to manipulate the market into believing Tings are worth $100 each and subsequently cash out mine for over $60 million. 🤑

You're gonna have to sort this out with Michu, he's the one who said they were free! I don't like it either given my aforementioned plan...

Too risky… Someone might stumble on it, get the wrong idea, and think we were running an actual Ponzi scheme :oops2:

Also, can it be… Is the counter actually sober this year?? :shock:

Alright fine, I'll have to strike a deal with you in private later. :bad:

True, but I'd hate to have us be associated with something like that. We need to rise above the noise and toxicity of the modern internet!
