Trial

Trial is a map style in the game TrackMania Nations Forever. It is one of the most played styles in today's day and age. The trial style is all about finishing a very difficult piece of map built by a very skilled player and builder. 
One of the most prominent builders and players of the trial style is simo_9, aka simo_90, aka simo_900, aka simo_9000 etc, etcsimo_9 is notorious for creating many accounts with similar nicknames.. He's built amazing trial maps such as "Analytical Geometry", "Forceful Habits", "E07-Stunt", and of course the hardest trial map to ever be built as of today, "Final Enigma"Nobody has ever finished Final Enigma. The closest someone got was the player Exix, getting the last checkpoint and failing the map due to a power outage..
In May of 2023, the trial community had a devastating discovery. One of their most successful players, Fred (of team T3), was caught cheating on all 943941 trial maps and 2 extreme jump maps trial maps to ever be built. Before that, he was considered one of the greatest, if not the greatest trial players to have ever touched the game since its release in 2006.

Trial maps often have insane tricks that you have to pull off such as:
# Incredibly precise and tight jumps
# Precise landings on small platforms (like the blue wall)
# SuperbugsOnly one map makes use of the Superbug due to its unknown nature. This map is not considered for the trial leaderboards due to its difficulty.
# Nosedives
# Air Brakes
And a whole lot of other techniques listing which would take way too long for an encyclopedic article.
