Oh boy. That OT tourney is no joke...

Mario Kart 8 |OT2| A communication error has occurred.

Seriously, too common

 

[Grizzo]

Too many communication errors happening. That's not a good look. But oh well, that was to be expected.

Ha!

 

[Hispanicguy]

Why am I getting Communication Errors each time I try to play online? This is getting annoying.

I agree. Decided to stop playing for now because of it.

 

[revolverjgw]

Who's Yer Daddy? His Mii cracks me up

 

[Kouichi]

Because second place is more dangerous.

Exactly. Sometimes I'm so afraid I just keep a banana behind me and settle for second.

 

[zashga]

Yeah, so... this just happened to me in online play.

Spoiler

I still won!

 

[Teknoman]

Oh boy. That OT tourney is no joke...

Tell me about it lol.

Im just glad I can consistently make it to a high place...only to be hypercombo'd back down, but still.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I almost passed on throwing that boomerang papercuts cuz we're friends...the MK gods took over me, I'm sorry ;_;

 

[AdanVC]

Luigi is starting to scare the hell out of me in MK8, like, seriously.

Spoiler

Awesome gifs

 

[Papercuts]

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Has anybody ever actually been hit by the moles on Donut Plains/Moo Moo Meadows?

 

[SparksterMeta0]

I know just the song for this.

[boxter432]

ah that mt wario was a bloodbath finish

 

[tosu]

3 chances at 1up with the boomerang for the win. Missed all 3.

 

[Recall]

Too true

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

That's twice I've been first for the entirety of Mount Wario then got rekt at the end.

From first to 7th by getting hit like 6 tomes in 10 seconds.

I have.

A great source of embarrassment for me.

 

[Strider]

Mario Kart 8 |OT2| I'm using tilt controls!

lol. My vote goes here.

 

[Kouichi]

Oh my goodness. I barely dodged the blue shell that hit papercuts, but then I fell.

Damn right you are

 

[Papercuts]

Oh my goodness. I barely dodged the blue shell that hit papercuts, but then I fell.

I was not so subtly trying to get that to cream us both, lol.

 

[1up]

3 chances at 1up with the boomerang for the win. Missed all 3.

Next time!

 

[HawthorneKitty]

I'm always amazed when TheBitBlock's Josh Thomas uses tilt controls.

 

[Grizzo]

How do you make slow-motion gifs? Every time I upload a video of the race on YouTube through MKTV it only shows it in its "regular" speed (and therefore missing many frames and many little funny details like in your gifs).

 

[NotLiquid]

I like how ever time slow motion is used when someone is being hit, a long, drowned out, dreary music tone plays like something terrible has happened.

 

[Vylash]

I don't know what it is about racing with you guys, but I don't get mad at all even when I get screwed over

 

[Teknoman]

I don't know what it is about racing with you guys, but I don't get mad at all even when I get screwed over

lol yeah its actually laughable. I guess thats a good thing.

[Mr. Patch]

How do I keep getting hit by backwards green shells?

 

[MicH]

Yeah, I laugh it off in the tournament, but all hell is lose in the 150CC Grand Prix. So much rage!

 

[Son Of D]

Holy shit that was lucky. End of Bowser's Castle gliding over the big gap and a blue shell's about to hit me. My item box had a horn.

Record it while manually playing the highlight.

Last second win!

 

[revolverjgw]

[Papercuts]

Way to go net wrecker.

 

[Umi88]

gaaaah... got a netowrk error just when I was going 1st

edit: back to the party it seems

 

[Prototype]

So acceleration is pretty much a must online if you want any hope of escaping the opening mess and getting riddled with items.

 

[MBR]

A race that went somewhat decent, and communication error :/

[ViewtifulJC]

[The Lamp]

OH MY GOD. You may be saving me from carpal tunnel! BLESS YOU.

I had to switch to Wii remote nunchuk combo to avoid carpal tunnel lol

 

[trilobyte]

Go easy on me! Haven't played MK since the SNES lol

Too true! hopefully that gets patched soon, it seems to fail if someone jumps out after voting or something. One time everyone on the list jumped out bar myself.
