I need to sleep now, good games everyone! I hope you'll all enjoy MK8 while I'm suffering for the next 10 hours until GS open.

Farewell MK7!

Can't wait to continue our races in 8! GGs.

 

[Elija2]

And I just saved my lightning until people went past the item boxes and went from like last to 2nd pretty easily.

But usually you're farther behind the pack when you get a lighting so everyone has already passed the item boxes.

Farewell Prinny, your green shells won't be missed!!!

 

[ffdgh]

Love ya instant shock users <3.

 

[PreyingShark]

But usually you're farther behind the pack when you get a lighting so everyone has already passed the item boxes.

By the time you get the lightning a lot of people have already used their items.

Also, the item line I aimed for was the one before the shortcuts on that track. By waiting, I ensured that nobody could take the SCs without having to do some slow offroad shenanigans. If I had used the lightning right away then people would have had their power items for that section.

 

[Elija2]

Well, trying to avoid a blue shell totally backfired for everyone there.

 

[ffdgh]

10 minutes...

 

[Elija2]

Damnit Greg, why'd you wait to use the blue shell?

 

[ffdgh]

Dat blue pile up XD.

 

[Elija2]

Curse whoever threw that blue shell!

 

[Saint Gregory]

Damnit Greg, why'd you wait to use the blue shell?

To see exactly what I saw LOL. I didn't mean to get caught up in it though :{

 

[PreyingShark]

One more.

Then I'll go sit in a corner and cry as GAF downloads the game, yah?

 

[ffdgh]

Gentlemen...It has been a pleasure.

 

[PreyingShark]

Gentlemen...It has been a pleasure.

Mine too, but I have parting words I wish to say first:

$#^* you guys.

 

[ffdgh]

Started the download while racing

 

[Saint Gregory]

I'm buying it while I race!!!

 

[Elija2]

I have no MK8 to go to, so I guess I'll keep racing.

To those who are leaving, it's been (mostly) fun!

 

[PreyingShark]

I dare you two to have a quick race when you're done downloading.

 

[Saint Gregory]

I dare you two to have a quick race when you're done downloading.

MK8? Sure!

But I just realized why driving while making a major purchase is a bad idea :{

 

[ffdgh]

Haha I just realized rainbow road ended your marathon. Awesome. I got 7 minutes to go on my end. GGs to you and Eli!

 

[PreyingShark]

Yeah, the races I played were good.

I might actually get to play MK8 tomorrow so I'm hoping things work out.

 

[Elija2]

Good games, everyone! Hope y'all have fun in MK8!

 

[Saint Gregory]

Hope you'll join us soon Shark but I'll be willing to slum back into the MK7 Ghetto and keep you company every now and then

I was curious about my W/L records. Now that 8's out, let's do this! Though, I think some of Prinny's are missing but w/e.

Greg: 484 - 80
ffdgh: 278 - 399
Prinny: 221 - 134
Jucksalbe: 94 - 18
Patrick: ...I'll be nice and not post this one.
Smilax: 129 - 44

To make most of you feel better, here's some W/L ratios from my Friends' List:
763 - 999, but my losses maxed out at like 500-ish wins so it's a lot worse than it seems
911 - 946 is also a thing. She kicked my butt a lot. D:
Same w/ 149 - 185, but IIRC I had a lead on him at first. Then he later started destroying me the occasional time he actually played. Often with 0.75 handling.

My general win ratio on this file is like 2/3s or something like that. IIRC it was lower on my physical file.

Now onward to the future!

...Whenever I get a Wii U.

I can't wait to race you, and end up getting the same W/L record against you haha. How many hours do you have logged in on 7 anyways Shark? If I can recall I only have around 60ish hours on it, I got it really late!

 

[PreyingShark]

Over 10x what you have.

 

[Jucksalbe]

You make me look so bad...

Does that list reset from time to time for people you don't have on your friend list? I says "2-2" against Greg and "3-1" against Prinny for me. I clearly have played way more often against both of them.

If they get off the Recent Opponents list than their records are erased.

And I assure you that you weren't close to the worst record I had available.

 

[Jucksalbe]

Just for the record, my overall W/L ratio is actually positive (993-856). So....now I feel better.

 

[PreyingShark]

Yeah, you're above average. it's just natural that you'll struggle when playing a couple of us who had hundreds of hours of practice. ^_^

 

[Elija2]

I just looked up my W/L records but the only ones that are still saved are Greg's (156-93) and ffdgh's (28-157). Racing against you guys has seriously damaged my overall W/L ratio.
