Currently racing in community mode with Derek and Blaze if you want to ~
I would but this router hates my 3DS's guts.

Also, Soapr: I love you.
Soap, stop ramming us >_>

Also, grats to Remmy for getting his first first :P
Alright, I'll stop ramming you. You can tell I'm not lying because if you go to the "list of people" page on wikipedia and sort by trustworthiness I'm right there on top. I'm that incapable of lying.
^ Total lies

Anyway, we seriously need to have an 8-person community race. (I'd also love it if we could, say, get on Vent so we can hear each other rage XD)

EDIT: So I did Worldwide afterwards... Ended up doing Maka Wuhu 3x in a row ._. UGH! (Seems like Metal Mario players pick that a lot...)
Omg i hate those stupid time differences D:
Sunday 11:30 pm ... jj asks for kartparty people
and i have to wake up 6 a.m.

But hey. I will play with you again xD
and about the Vent thing. Would be nice but it is not possible for me :(.
Of all the times to get capped.
I'm all over the prospect of voice chat... sure, I'll Ventrilo. I see the thread with the server information too (as well as details of all the... hijinks that transpire in the main chat). I guess we can try that next time we gather!
They seem to be blocking glitched ghosts from appearing through Spot. I hope they can still figure out something serverside, like preventing the track from being chosen, or making glitchers explode in a giant fireball forever.

The reasoning in that article is not to put out a revised cartridge, since people with the first version would still be able to do the glitch. This doesn't rule out the forced-update-to-play-online possibility.
Well but they could do it like with Zelda Skyword sword.
But even then ... You have to dwl it the patch channel . I guess there would be still people who wouldn't do that because they are idiots.
But you have to connect with Nintendo before racing online so it should be possible to force people to dwl the patch "channel".

I hope they will fix this sometime ... or i just play with communities who don't like choosing this Wuhu track.
Whoa, wait, Skyward Sword has a patch? For what? *looks up*

*a moment later* Interesting... /off-topic
Dah! I'd like to race in the community one time but no one is ever on and timezones annoy me. :/

well how about this :3
You tell me your timezone and I try finding a good time spot :3
GMT + 1

But i say that it will happen on weekends :3

Time Zones suck ass sometimes, don't they?
If anything (and this is unintentional), we usually have them on the weekends.
Just stalk players in your friends list and try to drop in on their games.
If more than 2 gather, they'll probably call for a kartparty so stay in #videogames.
I recently heard of this glitched shortcut on Wuhu Mountain Loop and I checked one of the ghosts I got from Street doing this shortcut. I tried it myself in Time Trial and here's the time I got:
Guess that makes me the cheapest bastard in the world right now now. While this may be big news, Mario Kart Wii isn't that much different either, especially when they have some of the same sort of thing. Linking to YouTube since embedding the video doesn't work properly for some reason: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRjhUduI53s
I am GMT + 10 but I randomly go on Mario Kart when I can. I don't exactly have a scheduke per se. However maybe knowing what times you guys are usually on would help :)
Wait, even Wuhu Loop has a glitch?

...

Now I'm wondering if Rainbow Road has one...

Star Cup. The course is Maka Wuhu in the North American Release. It's the same glitch we already know and loathe.

I wouldn't do the glitch on my time trials. It would prevent the game from ever storing a legitimate record there for me ever again, and Nintendo filters out glitched runs for Spot.
Yeah, Maka Wuhu was called "Wuhu Mountain Loop" in other versions, and our Wuhu Loop is "Wuhu Island Loop"

Can someone explain me why they change the names all the times?
It is just confusing ^^
If they would only translate it for the different languages ok but no, that would be toooo easy.
Because cocks.
So... I've seriously been wanting to have an 8-player kartparty for a while now (over Community, of course)... If possible, can we try to get everyone together tonight or tomorrow night around... I dunno... 10 PM - 12 AM CST (GMT -6)? (Not saying that's how long I'd want us to play; you can play as long as you want/drop out whenever.)
My internet reset \:D/

I'll try to be on or something.

I expect I'll be able to make it!
10 PM (GMT - 6) ....
10 PM + 7h = 5 AM .... (GMT + 1)

That should say it all
Ack... Well, I'm gonna be up past that timeframe (the latest being 3 AM CST [GMT -6]), so... yeah.
I should be around!

Did I read that right? Normal time when you guys are on is 5AM my time? o-o No can do. I LIKE SLEEP. :(
I have other stuff to tend to, so I can't play any earlier ._. I could try playing way later than that, but I have to be in bed by 5 AM CST (GMT -6).

Starting a kartparty now. in whenever!
I


hate


everything


:IIII
Even me? Do you hate me?
1) Poot you guys for item spamming then ramming me off-course.
2) Poot you guys for item camping during (our new) battle community :|

P.S. TAILS ARE HAX

Anyway, was fun you guys :D Having 6 people was rage-inducingly fun, but we still need 8!
So apparently I do better in large battle courses with lots of rooms. And it's okay when Soaprman is a dick in races, but not me in battles? ._.

15:10 < Soaprman> items rule
^ Soapr in a nutshell.
That was a really fun Kartparty, my first one too o-o. And Agreed with Blazevoir TAILS ARE HAX.
Also added mm201 and Remmy to friend list :D

And thanks those who added me. 8-)

I camp but it's in a mobile tent.
Kartparty in about 30 mins. BE THERE!

Kartparty starting!
I got this game for Christmas and it's a lot of fun :)

I've ed the community as well. Hopefully I'll see some of you around sometime o.o
First 8 player community race: me and Soap tied for first :)
Someone told me to post my friend code. My friend code is 0387-9305-4867.

I was part of that kartparty. . . before it got popular :3.
It got pretty good when it went mainstream though.
So I just checked to see how many coins I currently have and noticed a title below my Mii: Banana Blitzer. Do these titles even mean anything? (Also, apparently whether it's Worldwide or Community, all your Wins and Losses are tracked together; I have over 1k wins and 400+ losses, and I haven't even been doing Worldwide that much.)
I think it has something to do with your street ghosts... like, determines your ghost's AI or something. I've had no luck getting streetes though so it's not like I'm able to try such a thing out!

Soaps right it determines your AI but for Grand Prix. So if you use a lot of Bananas you will be Banana Bltizer and if you Street someone you'll appear in their Grand Prix randomly and put a whole lot of Bananas everywhere >_>
What does "drift wizard" do? :D
I need a full list of these titles, STAT! *goes and Google's them*

EDIT: Geh, no luck...
Shohei Ohtani
I went to the park and got a street with this kid who was a bomb-omb boomer or something.

Needless to say I hated my life for the entire race.
Just imagine if there was a Star- or Blue Shell-related title... GAH!
I've seen "star racer" and "shell shark."
At first, I figured star racer meant you had a star ranking.
There are dozens of titles. I have a different one every time I look at my profile.
I still wish I could find a title list...
I started getting 3 Stars on each cup but i hate 150cc so much ... even though i collect 40 coins and had 40 points i only get 2 Stars >:(
50, 100 and mirror cup were sooo easy but i can't stand 150cc D: I hate it stupid thunder and blue shells.
I got 2 stars from 38 points once. I think it has to do with how much time you spend in first on each of the races.
If you get knocked off, you might as well restart.
Why oh why did they nerf blue shell dodging?

I can understand why there are thunders even though i fucking hate them.
But blue shells are so useless. You get them from position 5 - 8 and they hit the first guy. Yeah so great, you just wasted an item.
Ok in Mario Kart 7 the blue shell also can hit people that are on the shells way not like the DS version but still, it is a stupid and useless item.
I don't know anyone who likes that piece of crap.

They removed the ghost for some reason but why not the blue shell?
Most annoying item since Mario Kart 64.
Yeah, you can still only get 2 stars with 40 points... From what I've seen, you need to finish x seconds ahead of everyone else (thus close-call races aren't good enough).

I do...

First place is a very defensive position. Compared to the hell that goes on in the lower ranks, with star ramming and massive shell assaults, it can be very easy for the first place racer to gain 10 coins and make a runaway. They focus on tightening their line while all the other players are fighting to stay alive. The blue shell aims to reel them in a bit.

What they need to do is reduce red and blue shell appearances on lap3, and bring back blue shell dodging which requires supreme ninja skillz to accomplish.

The ghost and fake item boxes were cool.

Ok I can agree to this point of view but the fact that it is mostly happens to me in lap 3 is a huge problem.
I also think that the red shells is almost like the blue shell, I mean the other player can be so far away and it will follow you even though you can protect yourself.
Blocking reds with items is more reliable than blue shell dodging ever was.

So it gives others a chance to catch up? I don't see why you'd think of them as useless.

My point is this:

You are 5th and get the blue shell, you shoot it and it hits the 1st but you don't get anything. It only helps people on 2nd or 3rd place.
It only helps you if you are lucky enough to hit the 2nd and 3rd (maybe 4th) with the explosion of the shell.
I don't know if it is possible to get the blue shell as 4th but i guess 5th is the best position for that.
Even worse if you get BS as 8th.
It is my opinion and i have no problems with yours but i guess it is impossible to convince me that the BS is useful.
It is just a ive item which only helps people a few places behind the 1st but not the guy who gets it.
The same is true of the lightning bolt.
If blue shells originated from the environment instead of other racers, there'd be much more rage.

Na i just hate lightning bolts when i am gliding other a canyon
maybe but atleast you profit by lightning bolts if you get them and you can protect yourself if you are lucky enough to have a star.

I don't think there would be more rage maybe the same or less.

bomber34 wrote: o1q2a

More like,
*player 5 gets lightning*
*player 4 is in a star and unaffected*
*player 4 proceeds to ram players 3, 2, and 1 out of existence*

And they made the bullet bill so slow and stupid in this game, its only purpose is to serve as a hazard to players in low positions.

but even then you as 5 would profit by it since you should be able to get ahead of atleast 4th or 3rd (in case the "old" 4 got the star)

Well atleast you can abuse the bullet bill in the "Wii Mushroom idk the english name ^^" if you using it in the right moment before the end of the track where all the many mushrooms you have to jump/glide other, it won't end until the final curve before the goal :3
I have mixed feelings on blue shells in 8th place. They do more damage from there since there are more people to hit, and it's always fun knowing that first place is almost certainly getting his shit ruined. On the other hand, it doesn't help move me into star ramming range.

And yeah, bullet bill is totally a booby prize in this game. So lame. Not even very fun to use.

well maybe we can stop at this point about whining over items ( sry that i started it ^^)

maybe you enjoy this
The poot...
It might be edited. Look at the numbers on everyone before the shortcut (and Toad after the shortcut). Multiple fifth places.
I should pick a heavy and see if I can ram some Us into the Maka Wuhu glitch.
Heavy + Mushroom + (nearly) perfect alignment*

Good luck
So I'm going to abstain from Kart until I've worked through some obligations to work and to osu!stream. That means I'll have a hard time dropping in on kartparties for the next 3 weeks or so.
Who will I star ram now ;-;

You can ram me so much you want ... if we ever have the next kartparty which for my timezone possible ;)
It sucks that i can't chat in osu! while playing MK7 :(

Sorry, my signature is dedicated to my favoritest pet beatmap right now. But it's a solid idea that deserves exploring when the time comes!
I'm looking forward to it? XD
Finally got 3 stars everywhere xD
had to do 150cc like 20 times, farmed other 600 coins though ^^

Please give me nice words for my torture like:
this is nothing special

;) I found my personal kart now ^^
Btw is there a border where you don't get any new kart parts with coins?
got 2500 now ^^

bomber34 wrote: o1q2a

The border is 5,000 coins.
But it goes higher if you want to unlock gold glider for 10,000 coins and gold standard body for 20,000 coins. But there's another way to unlock them, check the link.

thx very much :D
I guess i will collect them while racing online ^^
I'm too lazy to get that many coins, and I can't do that "other" way to unlock everything... I also can't be bothered to play MK7 unless there's a kartparty going on, and Worldwide isn't as fun for me since I can't chat against my opponents...
I've already achieved 10 000 Coins and got the Golden Glider, now I just need 10 000 VR to get the Gold Kart and I believe i'm complete. :D
I'm sitting on a little over 5000 so I have all the non-golden parts. Which is enough for me. I'll leave the driving the gaudy blingmobiles to you guys.

And I only generally race Worldwide when a friend or two is around racing too. I will very occasionally go solo though and just hope someone hooks on.
I have the gold wheels from getting a star rank on all the cups but trying to unlock all the parts seems like it would take too long. The 10 coin limit in a single race and the fact that coins collected in Time Trial don't add to your coin total certainly doesn't make things any quicker either.
Wait, what? I thought getting coins in general (Time Trial aside; unsure about Coin Battle/Runners) added to your count?
It is kind of crazy how much work is required to unlock everything. I have something like 60-70 hours logged on the game yet there are parts I don't have (golden parts)... I only hit 5000 coins recently.

And yeah, only coins from races count. Time trial and battle don't.
We need some of these in MK7 for Blaze~

Oh, dear go--*blue shelled*

Also, if you mean me "riding" one, sure :D If you mean targeting me, poot you. I hope you keep falling into pits and keep going out-of-bounds >_>
The Giant Blue Shell is a docile creature which prefers peacefully following along tracks more than physical confrontation. However, it must NEVER be provoked.

If that's what it takes to knock you off the track, then so be it.

Worldwide is so easy though :c
Which is why I'd rather do Community (at least if I'm able to actually communicate with the people involved in it).
