Also: let's plan the next Kart session some hours earlier :U
I usually announce them a day before the next kartparty. Though not intentional, they always seem to start at Friday, 9 PM CDT (GMT -6).

I remember you saying that's like 4 AM for you... I guess we could try having one earlier than that next tim--err... wait... do you usually sleep after midnight? If not, we can try to have it earlier. If so... well... actually, if we had it later I probably couldn't chat in Skype, but we could still try to have one later.

Okay, so... does a kartparty at 6 PM CDT (GMT -6) tomorrow sound good?
Rantai
10 am oh god. We'll see I guess.
NaomiMinette
I'm really sorry, but that's like 1 AM for bomber and (I think) Dangaard, and I'm really trying to get more people together as best as I can x.x
Mianki
I calculated that it's 3 AM for me and 2 AM for bomber and Dangaard. Yeah, there's never a really good time for everybody but I guess I'll try and make it :P

6 P.M. (GMT - 6 ) is (add 7hours because of GMT + 1) is 1 A.M. for us germans. (I hope i did no mistake now)
1 A.M. is fully acceptable for me :D
Mianki
Internet says that it's GMT +2 in Germany, did you remember to add summer time? http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-z ... n/germany/

But when we have summetime on the northern hemisphare that also means that USA has summertime so that is +- 0 at the end....
I am really not sure though but i guess we will see. I stay up to 2 A.M then .... But i still think it is 1:00 A.M.

Hey..... you know. we should have some kartparties when it's nighttime for the Americans 8)...

Sounds fine (here is GMT -5) although it needs a little change to suit the best hour for all. If possible, could it be a little earlier to fit everyone countries?
NaomiMinette
If I did it any earlier, it'd be like 9-10 AM for a few of the others...

Uhh... I forgot to mention... this is during Saturday/Sunday (depending on your timezone).

Also, if you play reasonably close to your computer and have a headset, consider joining us on Skype while we play! Nothing like trash talk in real time.

Pick a time. Host a party. See who shows.

I'll probably show up a little late to tonight's.
Soaprman
No need to wait for an Officially Sanctioned Kart Party. Just yell "kartparty" in #videogames and see who shows. I'm on most of the day on weekends. (not in the osu! client, but I keep IRC open)

Note that if you're like me and play far away from your comp then you get to experience the joy of regularly checking your Friends List to see what's going on.
NaomiMinette
Okay, so I guess 6 PM CDT (GMT -6) is still a bad time... Probably the next (and last) scheduled time I'll try is 3 PM CDT. If that fails, we'll just kartparty whenever.

Hey, I keep trying to join you guys but I keep failing. Can you guys wait for me or something? Oh, and I have Skype, if you want to add me, the username is rust454.
bomber34
Whoever Nikelback was ... I have a message for you.
When you hit me on koopa beach with that fc*cking blue shell in 3rd round .... my middle finger showed up and i couldn't get it down again ~.~
That was a FFFFUUUU moment.

I'm thinking of giving you a couple of you guys my cellphone number so you can text me what's going on when it seems like I don't know what's going on, since I have to play downstairs so I can't use Skype and shit. Y/N?
Soaprman
Y. You can trust me with your phone number. Ask Remmy.

Sorry for not showing. I was sick with a headache at the time.
Thurs/Fri/Sat evenings are best for me.

So, they released a patch version today which fixed some unwanted shortcuts and is obligatory for online matches.

Alright, time to spam Maka Wuhu until people start realizing that the glitch is fixed! Man, this is going to be HILARIOUS!

Alright, I actually did spam Maka Wuhu until it got picked.

This one guy spent the entire race trying to do the glitch. I'm serious. And it was pure, comedic gold.

Don't people try to read what they download?

Yessssssssssssssssss

Motivation to play MK7 again 8-)

Me and Xgor would be ready to have a kartparty right now or in the next few hours, anyone else?
NaomiMinette
I'll join. I wanna see this patch (and I can't be bothered playing alone even on Worldwide, lol).
Mianki
We're in osu chat right now, should we do skype?
halo398

bomber34

halo398

Pimpi
Niceeeeeee! no more glitches xD
Would try the patch later and will join the next kartparty if possible

I still wonder how many people are still trying the glitches, lol.

Unfortunately, our room didn't contain any members of the Lowest Common Denominator. D:
NaomiMinette
Dammit, lol. Oh well. Was nice trying.

Still, Maka Wuhu (even before I knew about the exploit) was one of my fave tracks, so it's nice to race on it normally on Worldwide again \o/

P.S. Y u no talk on osu! while we kartparty? >=c

I was downstairs the whole time! XD I should really get one of those WiFi Range booster thingies sometime, though, so I can play in my room without getting D/C'd. They're kinda pricey, but it'd probably be worth it just so I could play MK7 on my bed.

And yeah, Maka Wuhu is one of my favorite tracks without the exploit, too. I'm happy that I can now race on it normally.
pieguyn
I wonder if it also fixed the Wuhu Loop glitch :?
NaomiMinette
Yes, that also got fixed as well as the GBA Bowser's Castle one.

Actually, here:

Version 1.1 (May 15, 2012) [43 SD Card blocks]
Resolved shortcut exploits for Wuhu Island Loop, Wuhu Mountain Loop, and Bowser Castle 1 when playing online. Does not affect offline play; the exploits remain in Single Player and Local Multiplayer, and ghosts that used these exploits are unaffected.

It did. It also fixed the GBA Bowser Castle 1 glitch. Those are the only 3 glitches it fixed, though, but those are the only ones that really had an impact on online gameplay and that were significant and game-breaking.

EDIT: Ninja'd
pieguyn
Oh awesome >w<
but I didn't even know about the Bowser's Castle glitch o.o
Azure_Kite
To be honest I haven't even bothered with the exploits anyways \:D/

It's funny that I'm always coming in first or second online, though. It's a nice change from sucking.
Soaprman
Were we going to try to set something up today?

SPOILER
post 911.... never forget.....
NaomiMinette
Up to you guys, really. I suck at scheduling anyway.
Topic Starter
Ekaru
I say we just stick with 9 PM and be done with it. ;P
NaomiMinette
Sounds good, I guess. I need an excuse to recharge my 3DS for tomorrow anyway XD
Soaprman
So 9PM GMT-6. I can dig it.
NaomiMinette
Really sorry for those that wanted it earlier, btw. (I would've made an announcement for one at an earlier time, but I wasn't in the mood to play.)

Also, after tomorrow I probably won't be making anymore "scheduled" kartparty announcements, so yeah (and for the record, I only did them since usually no one else makes the announcements).
mm201
FYI, 7 hours warning is not scheduling.
NaomiMinette
So apparently they didn't remove all the exploits yet... The 2nd one for Maka Wuhu's still available (just harder to do now)...
mm201
And DK Jungle.
I guess they deemed them too minor or something? Or aren't keeping up to date.
Xgor
Screw NBC toad circuit is THE SHIT!
NaomiMinette
Toad Circuit is no longer safe. It may not have pits (unless you get knocked off the glider path and onto the bridge), but item spam FTW!

P.S. Figuring out GMT times from the USA, especially Daylight Savings Time times, sucks :o

But you don't get to experience the joy of accidentally drafting during the u-turn section or being pushed out of alignment and falling to your doom! ...Actually, I'd never fallen off on that course before today, but I kept on falling off on it today, so I picked that course again solely out of spite because I'm an ass. <3

Neo Bowser City is this rainy track, isn't it?
Why the hell does the german version call it Koopa Metropolis Fever? ^^ It gets really confusing if you talk about a track which i never really heard before.

Because they could. :D

Oh, and in case you were wondering, we played on the track four times in a row. It was... interesting.
bomber34
What do you mean exactly? Because we had 2 kartparties yesterday ... the first one where i participated there was this bowser guy who spammed it and got it all the time .... I was a bit pissed, because I am not a big fan of this track.
I don't know how many times in a row we got this track, but really... it was to much

I'm referring to the 9 PM one yesterday. What happened to you makes it even funnier, though. XD

Oh crap... I didn't realize Nintendo put up their own community as well as a competition...

More info on Club Nintendo's homepage, though it's most likely too late to try to get 1st-3rd...

Long kartparty was long, but it was well worth every bit of it.

Skype should be mandatory each kartparty. So much lulz and rage~

Yeah, it was over three hours long. Shit was aces all the way through though. Good for us!
