I've been disconnected several times, but I find that the closer I am to my router (i.e. in the same room) the better response I get.

Damn, good match Akia, Vook. You tied it up, Akia. Victory for both of us. We're neck and neck it seems. I've beaten you once, and you've beaten me once. Other than that, it's all been ties.

Several miles outside of Roann, Indiana. I'm linking merely because I'm amazed someone actually added it to Wikipedia.

With a satellite connection, my signal is first beamed to a satellite, then back down to the Direcway network operations center where it transmits/receives information using regular land lines, then the information is sent back to the satellite and then back to me. The speed of light becomes an issue.

Further tested, though, and indeed the same thing happens each time. At least it's not assigning any wins or losses based on this.

Lets go, Error, Kai.

I still need to figure out how to get a good emblem. My Triforce looks terrible. :(

Any tips? You guys have brilliant emblems.

As proven to Matlock. Peach > Daisy :D

And is Akia that good? I had fun with him the other night with all these ties. XD

We'll have a rematch, you bastard, and I'll use something that isn't Donkey Kong's kart. :p

Ok. I added you... searching...

Ok. This is weird.. WFC for friends goes on and on and on, then switched to "may find less than four", goes on and on, then suddenly disconnects. It worked fine all the rest of today...

Well, I'm busy searching for you fellows.

Ksing, good show! And Bobby! OMFG, that first race or two were hardcore awesome. Head to head, neck to neck action! A much better Daisy then Matlock was, but as it stands.. Peach still is superior! XD

Yeah, since MKDS only supports 60 friends and the GA list is way past 60, it's safe to assume some people aren't gonna have the other person

Seems really bothersome, so I think it's best to add those users who are more active in this thread

Oh well, can't wait for my dongle

Still playing single player... :(

Maybe this is Nintendo's way of getting people to buy two copies, so you can have 120 friends! :lol

Anyone know if having Super Circuit in the GBA slot unlocks anything?

I demand a rematch!! Those first two races were great, but I thought it was funny how each of us won the race that we shouldn't have. You were dominating the first one until I cheaply took you out at the end with a blue shell, and you did the same to me at the end of the next race!

Do you think the word of mouth will be huge around this game?
I'm wondering after seeing how insane this thread has become O_O

It's only huge because we're too busy either whining about not connecting, whining about disconnecting, showcasing our friend codes, showing who needs to add who and who added what

The list goes on

Woo, Bobby/Bunz, thanks for the great matches tonight! Man that bomb in the beginning of Rainbow Road really gave you a good lead. But there's a lot more to be said in all the matches we played thus far :D Anywho, I'm done for the night. Thanks again!
