It's not like you HAVE to be there (just saying). Honestly, I don't even know when to have one ._.Soaprman wrote:

I need at least a day's notice if it's going to happen at any time other than the nighttime; 9pm-12pm EST.
I have no idea when to hold it during the daytime for us NA people...
This has happened to me tooBlazevoir wrote:
Sorry, updated my post. Anyway, we'll see what the others say first.
EDIT: So I just finished a Worldwide race... MIRRORED. *did not know this was possible* Hao2trigger? (Is this also possible for Community?)
When I first saw it it only happened rarely, but now it seems like it happens every other race. o.o I'm trying to climb up to 9999 VR and it's happened more and more, so perhaps it does happen depending on VR
Recently tried the Grand Prix of the Miis I got via StreetPass and discovered that beating the cup earns you a kart part if the Mii you're racing against is using a part you don't have. I'm not sure if this applies to the gold parts as well though.
Yeah, I read about that. I doubt it'd apply to the Gold parts, or else I'd probably see just about everyone on Worldwide with less than 10k VR have them.
Screw you MK7.
Deny my last 3 star 8 times will you.

Be a hipster and race with 2 stars. It implies you have the same skill level anyway, just less patience.
Stars don't really mean a thing, to be honest. It's just a sense of accomplishment. *lost against so many no-star racers on Worldwide before*
yes ^^ i always try to get 100% in all games i love (Blazevoir wrote:

I love online races
5 people spam maka wuhu at least :3and there seems to be another lakitu glitch to be on this track D:
Oh? Do explain.
If you hit the ground a little bit early at the end of the glider part, you get put on the landing area.
If you land it too late, it's worthless. If you land it too early, you get put back. At best, you only save like half a second.

Okay... Don't really get it, but basically it's pointless to do that, right?
If you do it right it will save a couple of seconds, but nevertheless it's a fraction of what the bigger glitch does...
even though i lost 2 races because of that D:Derekku wrote:

Okay, I need a (GOOD) vid of this glitch... The one I just looked up was horribly explained/shown.
I did it on accident once by landing on the tip of the lower platform and somehow not opening the glider. o.o
Also, I don't even have any stars, because I beat one of the cups without even getting one and was too lazy to go back and get it. I'd rather try and complete my quest for 9999 VR

K so... I'm still stumped on when to have kartparties during the daytime for the North American people so the rest of you guys can join us, so either you guys tag us or we tag you
Other than that, it'll be the usual times--9 PM CST (GMT -6) or later during weekends.

12pm.... easy enough.

3 - 4 A.M. not very easy for me :/
But we already had this discussion.
Life is unfair sometimes.But maybe we european should start kartparties ourself. Isn't that good either (would love to play with you all).
It also seems that there aren't so many active europeans in this thread :-/
Well, maybe i will take the challenge to play at 4 A.M with you again Blazevoir :3. But i discovered that i am a little bit aggresive when i am tired xD
Well... I DID say we could tag you guys, so...
oh, it's at 9 PM? Somehow I missed that >.< I'll try to make the next one.
9 PM or later, meaning I don't have a definite time.
Hey, since we have some people, why don't we start a community match? I've yet to participate in one yet.
Managed to get 7 people in. So much rage~ Anyway, looking forward to the next one
Starting in 2 hours from now.
Uuuuuuuuugh... Time zones FTL...
Funny I was at home at the right time. (Very rare occurrence. Normally I would be at work on a Monday around noon.)
But I didn't check my internet.
Edit: And yes, I'm serious about that "day's notice" thing. I'd have been there with additional warning.

Home at last.
You will taunt me no more.

kartparty going on~
Everyone avoid Mianki. He'll blueshell the shit outta you.
The power...
It's unbelievable!

Poot you.
Also, gyro controls suck on really curvy tracks.

Steering the glider with gyro controls is a pain in the ass.
I can't figure out if we use the circle pad or gyro controls to ascend or descend... They both look the same (not that I can tell since I can't see behind me >_>).
Also, landings after ramping off something high/gliding sucks the most.

Gyro-only is the real way.
The rainbow road tube is disorienting with first-person view.

TOO disorienting... The game makes you think the tube's holding still while you're in first person... till you suddenly "fall off".

Great... So we have:
- A Starrammer/rammer
- A Blue Shell spammer
- The Guy Who is Last Place 90% of the Time
WHAT'S NEXT?!

Only way to find out is to keep karting. 8)
oh no I haven't discovered my own MK7 persona yet :V
If I could find out how some people are making these custom sigs (like ztrot's Lolis one)...
They're called "userbars" so look that up. There's a userbar maker out there somewhere.
The poot... They don't accept pics with transparency? Guess I'm just gonna have to use GIMP to do the rest...
Also, love your new sig, Soap

Might shamelessly steal that.
My sig's going a different route.
So... I'm pretty sure I haven't told everyone (who's reading this thread) yet, but my birthday's tomorrow (or today, depending on where you live; February 17), and I was hoping that whenever I'm free we could have one massive kartparty.
Obligatory Happy Birthday~
HBD~
I'll join if I'm not busy
I'll give you extra amount of blue shells

Not sure if I'll be able to join, but happy birthday!
Thanks
I honestly don't know what my plans will be for today, so we'll see.
UPDATE: PARTY AT MY HOUSE! (No, really, I'm gonna be having a party at my house, so I probably won't be on till way later.)

I'm guessing I slept straight through any sort of party today. Damn.
Not much of one, really... /sadface
Count me out of Kartparties from now. Mario Kart 7 refuses to let me play online anymore....
Be first from the last race
Maka Wuhu gets picked
Get a tail
Park in front of the shortcut and tail everyone who drives by
Most fun I've had on Worldwide in a long time

I usually get useless junk in 1st place though, enough to stop maybe like one or two people.

Psst. When do you all play (usually)?
Well... for me I wait till the weekends since I hate the idea of charging my 3DS 2-3 days after it's fully charged.Haneii wrote:

I always have to wait until 3 A.M to play with you all :/
Go get a better time zone.
Sounds like a plan :3.
Are there some empty houses on your side?

Yay I fixed my settings now I can go online in Mario Kart!!! Though i'm a bit worried about the suggested setting Nintendo sent me.... That seems to me a lot of ports needed to be open....Is that kinda bad? o-o
Though i'm a bit worried about the suggested setting Nintendo sent me.... That seems to me a lot of ports needed to be open....Is that kinda bad? o-oIt's fine probably. I DMZ my 3DS because I am super lazy.
Opening outgoing ports is usually safe. The only time it becomes a concern is if you're already infected, but even then, the virus could use a common port like 80 to do its bidding.
What the... how come our Community points went down?
Anyway, I guess I still do have my Banana sniping skills *successfully hit people on Worldwide a few times*

Dont have 3DS or something but im gonna try it on emulator or something (:
The Community Leaderboard rankings are determined by the results of the last month of games played in the community.Blazevoir wrote:

All scores reset to 0 at the beginning of each month. The Leaderboard only shows scores from last month.Blazevoir wrote:

Wait, what...
January had scores of around 1k -> February came -> scores were still maintained -> middle of February came -> scores dropped to around 400
I'm totally lost now...
EDIT: Actually... Didn't we start kartpartying around December? There's no way we could've reached around 1k if the scores were to reset, and we didn't even kartparty every day.

Most of the cups I played I got a triple star rank on my first try. Even on 150cc and Mirror at times.
Call a party tonight then...
I can make it around 8pm tonight. (10 hours from now)
I still play regularly, it's just no one else is ever on?

Oh well, next week it is.
Weekdays suck for me... I'll try to make it, though.
i dont do kartparties anymore because im ALWAYS in last place -_-
I can probably fix that ;_;RemmyX25 wrote:

I can drive slower if you want. Easier to starram you that way.
Good luck getting Stars in the higher places.
Ever wondered why I don't hang out in the front of the pack? It's certainly not because I drive like a clumsy fool, and it's certainly not because mm201 is way better at this game than I am.
soapr is my favorite~
I don't think Krazy Karting is as effective at going slow as it was in MKDS. Else I'd do that.
(Krazy Karting is intentionally picking a bad vehicle for lulz.)

When I have friends over to play Mario Kart Wii, the better players among us handicap ourselves by taking the Bowser Challenge.

Playing as Bowser (or a similarly heavy character) in a kart that handles like complete shit.
Funky Kong + Flame Runner gogo
Lol, I STILL haven't unlocked every Wii character...
Anyway, that challenge sounds fun. We should do it (I don't see why not anyway, considering we tried using Gyro controls.)

(I don't see why not anyway, considering we tried using Gyro controls.)But to do bad in MKW, all you need to do is use a kart...
I meant in 7, lol.
I missed a gyro controls party? And nobody called my cell phone or yelled really loud so I could hear or anything? Oh well. Maybe it'll happen again. I'd be up for a Bowser Challenge party sometime for sure.
I'm up for either just as long as we get enough people.
