Got 4 golden mushrooms...

 

[Boney]

Playing 200cc GP cause my internet decided to crap out and
A) it's so much more peaceful and easy
B) I realize the importance of letting go of A during certain drifts to cancel the boost and not losing speed (stuff like Yoshi circuit and dragon drift way tight corners)
C) Morton is still a dick

 

[Azure J]

Wow, I have to re-learn everything about Rainbow Road 8. This time boost bumps really are lethal.

 

[DaBoss]

I braked full stop after the bullet bill ended. Didn't fall off, even after the AG bump boost, but then when I drove forward, I couldn't turn lol.

 

[Neo Dark]

Got 4 golden mushrooms...

I got at least two and stars... And mushrooms... What is with this room and picking on me today?

 

[Omnicent]

almost DaBoss, I should have fired my shells earlier

 

[Azure J]

Damn man, I was keeping up so well until that shortcut attempt...

 

[DaBoss]

almost DaBoss, I should have fired my shells earlier

I was in zen mode trying to recover from last place.

 

[Carl7]

Now i just want 200 cc time trials, i implore for this.

 

[Azure J]

Fleeting is fucking crazy I swear.

 

[Oidisco]

Those bullet bills lasted so fucking long

 

[Burning Justice]

Last one for now.

 

[Roo]

Rainbow Road is brutal in this combo.

Speaking of which, am I the only one who has to do almost a full stop at the turn right before the first gliding section? If I don't do it I'll fall off track. I always have problems in that part.

 

[Boney]

Internet is back!
Here I go!

Which room is more inhabited?

Ah room's full, spectating

 

[Oidisco]

Holy shit, got the super horn when the blue shell was right above me!

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

Fleeting is fucking crazy I swear.

What did I do? XD

 

[DaBoss]

Oh wow, the left path has a way to get to the other path at the end of Big Blue. I swear this course is probably the one where there are lots of things to learn.

Speaking of which, am I the only one who has to do almost a full stop at the turn right before the first gliding section? If I don't do it I'll fall off track. I always have problems in that part.

I do have to brake hard, but I'm not really sure if it is a full stop.

 

[Omnicent]

thank you star power. Had stars on everyt lap there

 

[Mr. Patch]

Bullet Bill to victory!

 

[DaBoss]

That course will never be good. Ever.

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

THAT STUPID RED SHELL.

 

[Omnicent]

I need to work on taking that shortcut

 

[DaBoss]

I love how what I did to Azure J in an earlier race happened to me, but it was on the 2nd lap, so I managed to get 1st on the 3rd lap.

 

[Burning Justice]

GGs guys! I'll get on again later tonight.

So yeah, when I used Dry Bowser earlier I did just fine. Even got a couple wins. Usually placed in the top half IIRC.

Three of were using him, too, along with a regular Bowser. I would like to say we all did relatively fine but I wasn't paying too much attention.

Yeah, I did a lot better than I expected to with that combo. That said, there are some obvious downsides to it--I feel the weight classes are a lot better balanced in 200cc than 150cc. Which is better I think depends on the course. Same with outside and inside drift.

even though I'm tempted to run femvillager, I can't leave #teamRosalina (morton is dead and buried though, though justice and DaBoss give me hope. What kart buikds you use?)

I was using Bowser/Master Cycle/Slick/Bowser Kite. Wouldn't recommend that unless you're good with inside drift, lol.

I haven't tried using a heavy on a kart yet.

 

[Omnicent]

don't know what happened to prob, but it probably was horrible

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

That perfect Green Shell precision.

 

[Azure J]

Incite putting the fear of God into me with that last second star... Only for me to completely fuck myself lol

 

[Omnicent]

=\.... =\ =\ =\ =\

 

[blame space]

Sorry about that green shell at the end 😬

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

Three hits in a row brought me way down. Why.

 

[PreyingShark]

Speaking of which, am I the only one who has to do almost a full stop at the turn right before the first gliding section? If I don't do it I'll fall off track. I always have problems in that part.

I just have to brake a little bit.

 

[blame space]

Don't try to use a bullet bill after you're already on your way off the track

 

[Mr. Patch]

Got 2nd place and still got dusted. What happened?

 

[Oidisco]

Well, I had a great race in Big Blue

 

[DaBoss]

How did you like that red shell dodge, Omnicent?

 

[Omnicent]

man sometimes I can get that shortcut and some times I go to my death

 

[Oidisco]

Done for now. Night everyone!

 

[Mr. Patch]

200cc N64 Rainbow Road is great when you aren't getting slammed off the damn track

 

[blame space]

I feel bad about what happened.

 

[PreyingShark]

Yeah, I did a lot better than I expected to with that combo. That said, there are some obvious downsides to it--I feel the weight classes are a lot better balanced in 200cc than 150cc. Which is better I think depends on the course. Same with outside and inside drift.

Yep. I think it depends on how many "Wow fuck this turn" moments a track has.

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

I was just an inch away from falling off at the end. Those boost pads are pretty much obstacles at 200cc.

 

[Roo]

I do have to brake hard, but I'm not really sure if it is a full stop.

I just have to brake a little bit.

Guess I really need to practice that turn.
So far is my only complain about Rainbow Road 8

 

[Omnicent]

ohh so close with my bullet bill ther DaBoss lol

 

[Saint Gregory]

*looks at scores*

What the hell? How many hours have you guys been playing???

 

[FleetingFlowAir]

What just happened at the end? ._.

 

[Omnicent]

[SuperBowser]

[blame space]

Jaysus christ

 

[ClueLess]

Got a thunderbolt at 4th place ! I should have won that. Damn whoever threw that blue shell !

I'm at the point where I'm convinced everyone else is a hacker. If I'm within the top 6, someone always manages to send me back. When I'm in the back, no matter what I try, I never get an item as good as others back there.
