Please add "osu!" sans quotes to the start of your Mii's name!
We are now going for that clan look. Examples would be osu!mm and osu!Blaze.

Are you tired of racing on Worldwide? Are you tired of having an amazing Win-Loss ratio? Are you tired of getting 1st every bloody race? Are you tired of getting hit with 2 blue shells and still keeping your lead? Well, do I have the answer for you!

Welcome to our weekly kartparties, where the players don't suck, where the players are assholes who'll bump you off the edge or starram you, and where a freaking Canadian wins all the damn time!

Just log into #videogames join our Skype group and be on around the appointed time to join in on the rage fun! However, do be warned that your W/L ratio will likely be tarnished by this experience.

Etiquette Rules:
  1. Don't spam the same course over and over.
  2. Copy mm's combo Avoid copying other player's combos 'cuz then it just gets confusing.
  3. Don't spam the same course over and over.
  4. Use a good internet connection.
  5. Don't spam the same course over and over.
Other than that, be as much of a douche when racing as possible ^_^

none of my local friends have a 3DS :|
CapnDavid
i am planning to buy that in a few days.
Derekku
Finally bought a 3DS today (Best Buy has a deal where you get a $50 gift card when you purchase the system) along with Super Mario Land, Zelda OoT, and Mario Kart 7 (also at a great deal; buy 2 games get the 3rd free). I've only played a little bit so far, but it's pretty awesome.
Rantai
I must buy!

Getting it for Chrismas, Mario Kart <3
jjrocks
I already have it!~ I'll probably set up an osu community as soon as I get home and have access to wifi.

I'll make sure to join that soon when my internet stops being stupid. ^_^ You lose 20 VR whenever you DC. I got down to 944 VR at one point. Uh, yeah, it was that bad earlier. I'm back up to about a 1000, though, because I win easily most of the time and my internet's getting a bit better. It should be back to normal soon I think.

I really enjoyed the fact that there are two Rainbow Roads in one game, even because I've had the opportunity to try the older one like 2-3 times in my childwood xD

Rainbow Road 7's music is simply amazing <3

This. Someone should map it. It's gooooood. I prefer Daisy Hills' music, though, but that's mainly because I have absolutely no taste (as anybody who knows me knows :D).

But yeah, this game's track selection is great. They picked, like, all of my favorite courses from past MK games. And, my internet's at least manageable now, so <3. I'm going to be playing this for a long time.

Did I just hear a 64 remix...? This is simply too great.
Soaprman
Oh, what would be the best way to organize a game with you guys? #videogames? Something else?

Also, voice chat rules. Preferred means of voice chat? Skype? Mumble? I don't have Ventrilo but I guess I could install that too if you guys preferred.

I'm around generally anywhere between 7pm-12am EST. I'll lurk in #videogames or something and you can highlight me if you want to play...

3DS friend code in case you want to drop in on a worldwide game: 0817 - 3769 - 4108 (let me know if you add me and I will add you too)
jjrocks
I always lurk in #videogames, hl me if you want to play!~ Maybe we should do like...weekly races

Soaprman, I added you~ also, mine is 1848 - 1820 - 2782
*subscribes to topic*
Soaprman
Alright, I added you too! And a weekly race would be a cool idea... gotta find a time when everyone's around though. I personally can't commit to Friday nights but any other weeknight would probably work for me. Not too sure about times on the weekend.
Mianki
Aww man, now I wanna join. Guess I'll order this :P

jj & soapr: My internet's fixed! ^_^ I'll add you two and post my FC here soon.

Bought the game, joined the community and subscribed to this thread. Weekends are best for me if we're going to have a weekly races.

Am I the only one who noticed tihs? :P

Just got the game today, hopefully I'll be able to get some races in with you guys. :D
Soaprman
We got a few games in last night before JJ had to do homework and Ekaru's internet went to shit. It was fun! Maybe we can try again tonight or this weekend.

Weekly races on weekends is probably most likely since people being in such different time zones makes scheduling on weekdays a bit tough.
Rantai
What time did you get around to playing?

I get the feeling I'd have to be up at like 5am, which is fine and all.
Soaprman
Was around 7-8pm I think? Might be a bit off there. EST (GMT-5). Not sure if that'll be the "normal time" or not, but it's the earliest I can do on weeknights usually.
Mianki
That would be around 2-3 am for me. Well I do stay up on the weekends so it would be acceptable.

Good news: my internet's stable now. I just did 7 races in a row on MKWii without any significant lag (a fraction of a second, which is normal) or DC issues.

Bad news: Still lag (we're talking entire SECONDS here... not normal) and DCing on 3DS games. I'm going to try DMZing later and see if that fixes it. If not I'll contact Nintendo's support sooner or later.
Derekku
I'll join perhaps in a couple of weeks when I have more time! :)

Hurray! \o/

Also, I did indeed try DMZing. It's... it's... beautiful. *sniff sniff* AKA it actually works now. Hurray!

And great news about the net thing, Ekaru! I should be around tomorrow if you wanna give it a retry.

I love Mario Kart 7
just awesome :3 Even though i get the feeling that the red koopa shell acts like the blue shell because it follows you through the whole track.

What is your favourite racing track?
My fav. New track is Dk Jungle and Retro Rainbow Road Snes
I guess that i have to start online :D

I love gliding through the air :D
Yoshi <3

Edit: I am disappointed that there is no Mission modus like in the DS version :'( it was easy but also cool
Soaprman
Red shells have worked that way for a long time now... of course, with the ability to drag items behind you, it's not so hard to defend against them.

I like that they keep bringing retro tracks back. It's nice seeing old tracks with a fresh coat of paint and the choices are always good because there pretty much aren't any bad tracks to choose from. The way they incorporated the glider in some of the old levels was really nice this time!

I know but this time it seems extreme to me :3
My rivals are half track behind me but they hit me with the red shell ... tooo bad i never got items by me :(
Rantai
Know what's nice?

I no longer get single bananas in 7th place. That was the most frustrating thing in the Wii version, when you're coming 10th.

I found getting a thundercloud when nobody's around you to be way worse. :P
Soaprman
Maybe you should drive with more people around and stop being so antisocial, punk.
jjrocks
Besides the online on Mario Kart Wii, the Wii version of Mario Kart generally was a step down from Mario Kart DS (tricks are decent though...and so was the online)
31Gabe
Good about Mario Kart 7 because of:
[*]Sky and Water modes for the karts
[*]Newer machines, hopefully all are NOT broken (unlike DS)
[*]New set of retro courses (Maybe from MKWii)

Some flaws:
[*]If the RETIRE system was brought from WR64 and 1080 (Get hit too many times or fall from the course, you lose).
[*]The default controls aren't excellent; fair. If button config shows up, then this is the FIRST Mario Kart to use a button config feature. I want weapon firing as A button instead of L.

I think I'll be getting it for Christmas so hopefully I'll be able to join you guys in a couple weeks ^_^
Soaprman
31Gabe: Well, see, what you do is you play the game, and then two good things happen. You find out whether it has any of the things you mention, and you're playing Mario Kart!

0_o: Look forward to seeing you on the track.

I should be able to join you whenever my bro's not downloading crap, then. You know why?

Because it turns out that somebody had hacked our connection! No bloody wonder our internet was so inconsistent over the past two weeks. My guess is that they hacked us the day before MK7 came out, because that's when the issues started. Also, one or two days ago my mom was told that her email had been hacked and was sending spam emails to people. Well, having a hacked connection explains everything! Then today our internet was going at 10 kps speeds, so I looked at the logs and figured it out. Changed pass + key, and now it's working properly.

I'll update the first post soon BTW; I need to celebrate first.

I have this. Bug me on IRC for races.
K2J
The big new gimmick is hang-gliding. With this information, what N64 level should've been in here? That's right, Royal Raceway. I would've been perfectly OK if they removed Luigi Raceway and shuffled stuff around to make that happen, but oh well.
