New Sweet Sweet Canyon record: 1:53.604. Let's see if I can go any lower in the next 6 minutes!

 

[Gattuso]

Was hoping I wouldn't get in so quick haha

 

[Roo]

I don't know how, I don't know why but thank God for that pacific and rather clean lead 🙏

 

[Gattuso]

What a pleasant surprise!

 

[Roo]

Of course, they send a blue shell my way but reward Merrick with mushrooms. Seems fair /s

 

[Gattuso]

Sigh... To the back I go
Edit: there must be a secret weightless class

 

[Roo]

Ok, this is too much for me.
I will end on a high note
GGs you two

 

[Neoxon]

Ok, this is too much for me.

Right when I'm about to join the party.

Didn't know you guys left!
GGs!

[Neoxon]

What happened?

 

[Neoxon]

GGs, whoever just left.

[Roo]

Right when I'm about to join the party.

Eh.. maybe tomorrow

 

[PreyingShark]

I swear that that particular Yoshi has ate way too many cookies recently.

 

[Gattuso]

I just fly away so effortlessly there

 

[PreyingShark]

I like how your mii turns his head and goes, "Oh, what's this?" before getting smoothly rammed off.

 

[webkatt]

I keep playing single player so I can unlock my Mii character!

 

[Roo]

It's funny because I was right behind both of you and for a split second Nathan was the one that fell off instead of Merrick

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

I do not remember doing this. XD
On my screen you just went behind me.

 

[Roo]

Oh shit, you're right. That's Andy.
Nathan was the blue Yoshi and then switched to Bowser lol
Sorry

 

[PreyingShark]

Speaking of that... Was that race when I was still there? Because I only remember one RR64 race and I believe it was one where I had somehow magically caught up to everybody and then placed OK after I got boned.

if only they made silly faces for when that happens

i flew right off the course completely from that haha.

nope, you weren't part of that race according to the replay.

 

[Roo]

ROFLMAO!

[Enforced]

Lol wow that's great editing Merrick.

I keep playing single player so I can unlock my Mii character!

good luck.

 

[PreyingShark]

That new version of the gif is killing me. Hahahahahahahaha XD

 

[DaBoss]

lol that face.

I'm pretty sure that a slipstream gives a bumping power of a super heavyweight.

 

[ffdgh]

lol that face.

Except for when you try to bump an actual heavy weight and you're the one that gets sent flying instead....yay physics!

Mario Kart Wii had the same issue.
Bumping a heavyweight while slipstreaming and doing a wheelie was fun.
Those were the days :,)

Gcn DK mountain was the first ting to come to mind reading your post....specifically that bridge at the end >_<.

Came back, got 1:40.404 on the like second try (First try I crashed into a pipe). Uploaded it to Miiverse, too, so I think there should be a ghost appearing eventually.

Got sub-1:54 on Sweet Sweet Canyon but fuck I blew that ending hardcore.

Also, Sherbet Land: 1:57.100 oh my god this is the best I could do in the time I had and it's still really bad even by my standards. This course... As usual i uploaded it to Miiverse but man THIS COURSE AAAAAH

Many...MANY screw ups later.

MK Stadium: 1:40.393
SS Canyon: 1:53.318
Sherbet land: 1:55.769

The need to hop slide is becoming more apparent with each sub lol.

 

[PreyingShark]

You beat my time by 11 milliseconds? You son of a-

EDIT: Downloaded the ghost. LOL Oh you

 

[ffdgh]

Let me say that Mk stadium's reliance on soft drifting, boosting through those pipes, and getting 3 coins while gliding is very maddening.

So you're saying you want me to add in the red right before that sharp u-turn? Okay.

 

[PreyingShark]

1:40.352

FINALLY

lol tho now I'm consistent enough at that red MT that I'll eventually get the sub so I'm not too worried about that.

 

[Roo]

Is there any particular reason why every single truck in Toad's Turnpike change their design on the fly in the WR?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZedCGLcVm4

I was watching some WR videos (thanks to Nathan for that) and I noticed they change as the guy goes by.
Sorry if it's old. We barely play in this track and I never paid attention to this until today

edit: ok, *every single* was a little sensationalist but some of them still change lol

 

[PreyingShark]

The guy who uploads those videos merges two videos together; one of the MKTV replay and one of the ghost replay. If the truck designs are RNG'd then some weird merging shenanigans could be to blame here.

EDIT: Got it. Yeah, it's merging. Notice how all the changes take place in a specific region near the item box? The item box is from the ghost replay.

Forgive me if I'm a day or 5 late. I've reached my limit with that track for the moment. >_>

 

[PreyingShark]

I'll never let you "win" on MKS, you know, after seeing you dress me up as Princess Peach.

I'll likely do WWs in an hour or so.

 

[Enforced]

I want to play with you guys tonight. :'(

 

[PreyingShark]

Let's do "No DLC Courses" for tonight because why the hell not?

In a room now.

 

[Azure J]

Is anyone on? I was gonna play.

 

[PreyingShark]

I am on, yeah. Others should be getting on soon.

 

[PreyingShark]

Oh I think you'd have to add me. NNID: PreyingShark

 

[Gattuso]

just happened to arrive home from eating at a restaurant, so i'm game.

 

[Azuran]

I'll be game in like an hour or two when I get home. Need to eat first.

 

[PreyingShark]

I'll do online races again when someone else here is actually playing. Back to TTs for now.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]
