are optional objectives required?
In an in-game contract yes, otherwise you won’t get 5 Stars.
It’s even a complication here:

Yeah, the whole concept is built around complications/objectives that can’t be imposed in-game
So in the OP I state
and also in the body of the Trial post
Just coz otherwise they’d be generic contracts 
can be a little tricky sometimes I know, there’s a fair bit of text to read through
Also, I’ll make an official winners post in a bit and then post the next trial!

Okay, so that’s the first one done and gone. So let’s announce winners
Highest Scorer (€30)
Storming in quickly and setting the target very high was the lovely @Yannini. Yan is a proper speedrunner over in the discord so I am so grateful they got so onboard with this 
They smashed it with a score of 198,151 (1:28 SA). Have a very brief watch here 
Random Run (€10)
Every time I’m going to pick a person at random (use a random number generator) who’s completed the trial to win a prize. Just as a little thank you (and so speedrunners don’t absolutely dominate). So this time it’s @ZeroGravitas 
Luckily you’d already posted a run, so don’t need to verify. Check it out here
I’ll DM both about prizes
I’d also just like to thank everyone who’s play or expressed interest in this over the past week and a bit, I really do love this community

Smart. Means people have to take a long detour to a dead end to grab the helicopter key, but can’t use the ladder nearby.

I loved finding it out and executing that kill, lol. That ~1 minute mark time window makes Derek stand dangerously close to the robot to watch the demonstration. All he needed was a bump to turn around and the accident to happen, hahaha
Congrats everyone! This has been a pretty cool contract allowing for totally different and unexpected approaches

Does anyone know the record at the moment?
If you don’t have any problem with it you can upload it publicly right here or if you want to make sure your strategy doesn’t get copied until the deadline then you can send it via DM to @TheContractor .

If I post it directly here will it still get counted?

Oh thanks! Do you know what the current record is for this?
Currently none one has submitted a score, so I guess the record is a score of 0
