Gonna look at some the reels before I get back on.

3DS DK Jungle is shit. SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT

I love it. But it seems I'm in the minority. The turns are so much fun. And I don't know why but I often get 1st place on this track lol

 

[Papercuts]

It's distance from first now, not numerical position.

It seems to be the case on lap 1 when everyone(usually) gets trash on the first item box, though even then I still had stuff like the video I posted earlier where 3 people got a horn out of it. But there have definitely been really far behind lap 3s where I got total garbage like a single green shell in 9th.

 

[Gattuso]

hopping back on, who wants me in their lobby?

 

[-PXG-]

1up, join me

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Holy shit, already on the second OT? I haven't even had a chance to open my copy yet.

But you better believe that's what I'm doing tonight.

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

How are the tilt controls with the gamepad. Any good? Haven't tried it yet. Almost reluctant to now that I'm so acclimated to the stick.

 

[donkey show]

Still have the GAF tourney matches on stream: http://www.twitch.tv/gevurah22

EDIT: If you like comm errors, this is the place to watch! xD

Stupid question that I couldn't find the answer for in the MK8 manual:

In between races there's a Star on the menu with a 1/6 next to it. I hit '+' and it goes to 2/6 and it can be toggled back and forth.

I now have 2/6 and when I hit the + it toggles to 3/6. What does this mean? Some kind of betting system?

 

[javac]

I'll catch up soon!

Also, total time so far.

 

[Porcile]

Everytime Donkey Show turns up in a lobby I'm in, it gets disconnected! Third time tonight! You're cursed dude!

 

[-PXG-]

But that lag tho

That allows you to favorite a replay that you can watch in Mario Kart TV.

You'll get used to them after a couple races (well i did). They are pretty decent imo.

person who threw the fire balls at the end. >:|

 

[trixx]

3 stars in every cup, finally. Maybe i'm good enough to join a gaf tournament now.

Oh, okay. Cool. So I'm guessing the "6" in the 2/6 or whatever is the upper limit of how many replays I can favorite? Thank you very much for the clarification.

 

[akaoni]

The room communication error'd when all 12 people voted and the countdown to vote time limit still went through. On Donkey's stream only 11 people voted. There seems to be some kind of ghost voter when people join mid-game or from spectate or something is my current theory, and the server doesn't know what to do.

 

[Wired All Wrong]

Yeah, you can keep up to 6 replays. MKTV will also keep 1 or 2 pages of your most recent races.

 

[moai]

Sorry wario, stoled your second place.

 

[Fbh]

Ugh, I was doing great in that one and gt hit by like 5 random green shell rebounds

 

[Disaster Nebraska]

Yeah, you can keep up to 6 replays.

Right on. Thank you.

 

[Azure J]

That was nearly my favorite Electrodome run ever.

 

[U2NUMB]

Ok sorry gonna have to vent right now on Wii U and Nintendo to be more exact. I bought my Wii U earlier this year and it always had issues reading discs... early April I sent it in for repair.. took nearly 3 weeks and I got it back with a note saying they verified my issue and replaced the drive.

I then did not play any games (I sold the couple I owned while it was out) until Mario Kart as I just picked it up tonight... went to play it and yep... still a no go. They flat out lied that they repaired it so off its going again tomorrow and this time I get to send in my copy of Mario Kart so they can make sure its not the brand new disc.

Horrible experience and now I get to wait 3 weeks to play a game I just bought...

so put a few laps in for me guys.

 

[Gattuso]

that last second steal for 2nd

 

[Seik]

I need to study my stuff because you guys seem to know about all the shortcuts. D:

 

[akaoni]

I think I spotted it, the rooms are inconsistent, basically there's like too many players, and a mismatch between what each people see in the waiting room is different, on my screen I'm so sure there was a player that only existed on Donkey's side. Basically 13/12 player limit = can't start race.

 

[ChrisD]

Spectating a lobby in Cloudtop Cruise.

Everyone passed the leaf shortcut.

Guys it's so easy to do.

 

[-PXG-]

Of course I get like three items the whole race and two of them are shit

 

[Azure J]

Y'all some maniacs when the third lap starts up.

 

[exfatal]

fucking green shells are ridiculous

 

[Albo]

Watch your step PxG

 

[-PXG-]

Blooper always gets me whenever I'm first on Thwomp Ruins.

 

[Azure J]

WHERE THE HELL DID OHLAWD COME FROM?

Also shoutouts to that Initial D ass drift sequence

We had one in the middle of the race earlier this evening. That was weird.

 

[Tirod]

I love the new OT title. :lol

Can't wait to get on later, still finishing up some things at work.

I need to practice it because at the moment I just can't. The last time I risked it (in 1st place) I nearly came in last.

 

[javac]

I swear they have homing devices in them.

 

[Mr. Bamboo]

Can any Australians playing this online report on their experience... problems with cutting out or lag? Moving into my new house soon, so I'll be ready for some online play next month .

 

[Papercuts]

Hooo shit. Nice race PXG!

 

[Fbh]

Damn. 3rd the whole race, albo hits me with a red shell....6th

 

[1up]

1/4th of this room is Rosalina.

 

[Gattuso]

god damn that banana out of nowhere on the first lap

 

[exfatal]

argh dc again... wth is up with that

 

[Azure J]

The Vanilla Main™ takes it on best course.

 

[Vylash]

WHERE THE HELL DID OHLAWD COME FROM?

I find myself saying this a lot

[Gattuso]

got to go do something really quick. i'll be back

 

[Azure J]

god damn that banana out of nowhere on the first lap

My siblings let out the loudest SNIPE when we saw that.

Also Dry Dry Ruins for shit tier as well, but it's to be expected of a Double Dash course.
