[Grizzo]

In which room do people play the most? I have two GAF tourney on my fav list: "Weekly" and "Race". I only play in the Race one though (it's the one hidden in the OP).

He was....brought to a farm

That's some weird farm in the Mario Kart universe:

Nintendo of Europe's twitter. I also missed this thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=829369

Ah, cheers.

There's only three weights for Miis in this game.

I got a stamp from a time trial result on the first track, some pit crew toads, so.. I guess that means I beat the staff ghost time? I wasn't racing a ghost, I don't even see any Nintendo ghosts. How do you get them to show up? Or are they that Mario head that I see sitting on every track's time trial graph?

 

[Orgen]

Good races people! Hoping to see you again soon

 

[Pollux]

How do I turn off the game pad when im using the pro controller?

Does it make a difference that the gamepad is in the charging cradle?

 

[ViewtifulJC]

lmao

Hold that star, jc.

that wasn't me, I left the room. I did see it though and thought "yep, he thought that was me"

You click race against ghost and then go across and choose it to race against staff times.
And yeah, that means you beat one. For the most part they aren't too bad, the one I struggled with was Dry Dry Ruins, it took loads of attempts and was by a 10th of a second.

You don't. The best thing you can do is turn off the screen.

Fleeing with a victory, jolly good fun and all that.

I swear the course selection I've been through today has had a strong love for Super Circuit's track.

how can i join gaf tournament?

 

[akaoni]

First rule is you DO NOT talk about GAF tournament.

 

[billeh]

I love how everybody says their using tilt controls, and there's owl in the back with that "no fun allowed" face

I tilt my Pro Controller for that extra zip in the corners.

 

[friskykillface]

Like queen bee, nintendo clearly hates bugs.

Forgot about her, was random but cool

Well, you can still race on him.

Haha wiggler dlc racing on wiggler

He was....brought to a farm

RIP

Me too. I liked the way his hands moved!
And how he turns red when hit.

Would have made excellent gifs B^)

You killed the lobby on the way out.

A fitting end.

I'm also curious, I quoted the OT but I didn't see anything. I also got in the Chat, but it's dead.

Look for the tournament code in the email tags hidden in the OT when you quote it.

Just making a statement.

Seriously though what's the deal with that whole issue?

 

[Sadist]

I can't believe how much fun I'm having with this game. Mind you, I never was a big fan of Mario Kart (I like the series, but never to buy a copy for myself) but MK8 is hitting all the right buttons. It's amazing.

 

[Saint Gregory]

Haha wiggler dlc racing on wiggler

I saw someone in the GAF tournament rocking Yoshi on the Yoshi bike.

Seemed... I don't know what to think about that really :{

 

[Zing]

Look for the tournament code in the email tags hidden in the OT when you quote it.

The code is about as obscure as it could possibly be. Why can't we just paste it for everyone to read. I'm tired of only having a few people in the lobby.

Nintendo incompetence or good ol' fashioned racism, take your pick, sir

 

[Zen_Arcade]

The Star in this game is almost completely useless. I got three of them in one race only changed positions once. I got in front of one person with three Stars.

 

[OverturePT]

Goddamn, racing with Gaf is intense, I make so many dumb decisions because of it. And cheers "Communication Error", I love you too.

It's decent for taking shortcuts on rough terrain.

Thank you!

This game is amazing. The music is awesome and it's so much better with the pro controller.

 

[marink]

Looks like I'm destined for third/fourth. Also damn you Kak/Mario if you see this. I don't know who hit me.

They get filled very quickly, just wait a couple of races or so.

Make sure you're not in "Race weekly" which is for battle.

Ah, cheers.

Didn't you ever hear stories of parents buying their kids a new goldfish without telling them the old one died? That's not the same Yoshi.

 

[chaosblade]

Or leave and come back, I was in a group that dwindled down to three and eventually the other two left. Quit, rejoined, and suddenly I was in an active group of about 10.

 

[-PXG-]

Yessssss. Feels good to be back.

Anyway. I can finally play with you guys. JC, I'm coming for you.

 

[IntelliHeath]

My friend made it

 

[Zing]

Thanks for clearing me a path with the piranha plant, Benny. I went from 7 to 5th.

I instead opt for Nintendo Racism, the best of both worlds.

Shame I can't fatten up Shyguy so I could use him without the light lameness, even with the vehicle mixing and matching he is cursed to an undesirable state for me to ever use outside of single player.

 

[Chaos17]

Try to search for : email
when you quote the OT, the code is in the tag.

Even then it's not as useful as three Mushrooms or a Golden one. Didn't the Star used to have a speed boost along with the invincibility? It becomes a completely pointless item when the person in front of you can get three Mushrooms and speed away.

Yeah, that's why I switched to Waluigi (which would be my second choice regardless, so no biggie).

We need Gourmet Guy as DLC.

 

[RiggyRob]

I guess not - I always wondered how old Yoshi was if he was fully grown when Baby Mario and Baby Luigi were born. Guess we know the truth now.

 

[Deleted member 125677]

I actually won a gaf race

proof

 

[Zing]

Ok so I saw the bullet bill coming and I pull over to the side. The bullet actually went along the side instead of the middle and hit me anyway. Fourth to ninth.

It sucks that the vast majority of the roster is stuck in lightweight. Makes the poor roster even worse.

I can't take credit for that! I didn't get a piranha plant lol.

I know, I was using Shyguy earlier til I learned top speed was everything online. over half the cast aint shit, specially all these fuckin' babies they decided to include

 

[Woffls]

Aww yeah, 1st three races in a row

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Presume we're in a separate lobby to everyone else as it's a bit lonely.
