Mario Kart 8 - Aug 19 14 C

Eagle-eyed viewers may notice a sharp drop in VR between Aug 19 14 A and Aug 19 14 B and C. This is because A was actually recorded after B and C. I had upgraded to the 2.0 version of Game Capture HD, which has stuff in slightly different places—just enough for me to export Aug 19 14 C twice and delete the original recording for A in the process. Hence, I re-did those two requests and made it the new A. We’re a little bit over 200 races away from the goal. The numbers in parentheses for the courses indicate how many ranks it’s risen or fallen, while the number in parentheses at the total indicates 40 more races have been added total. 1.

Brawl’s character usage pie chart. A few clarifications, but feel free to ask me any questions you have. Battle Mode does NOT count. Races you spectate (that is, as you enter a room) DO count. Races selected through a Random vote DO count. If you want to send me multiple tallies, start a new one each time. It doesn't matter if it's Worldwide, Regional, or Tournament. The size of the room is unimportant. Select whatever course you'd like. You, too, are a player, and your vote counts too. Race #9 N64 Yoshi Valley This next request is for Lakitu in the Varmint (that’s one I don’t get very often) with Crimson Slim tires abd the Plane Glider. There may have been only 4 racers in this room, but it was stil a challenge and an uphill climb, considering I got Lakitu slammed into a wall as one of the players chose against taking the wooden bridge. You’ll also see that the Item Boxes before the big egg are fond of giving me Green Shells this time around. Race #10 3DS Music Park / Melody Motorway And then the room more than doubles in size and grows in freneticness many times more. It was pretty interesting seeing so many of the players packed this closely together, even more so than normal. It was also interesting to see that I should not always try to cut one of the corners in the gliding section. Race #11 Wii Moo Moo Meadows I got to the end of the list of my requests, so I just picked whatever I felt like. Here, we have Daisy in the Sneaker with the Blue Standard wheels. There’s no beating Jack Atlas, it seems, at least without Yusei Fudo. There was also a bunch of odd random passing ahead of me in the last lap. Race #12 GBA Mario Circuit And here’s Toadette in the Badwagon with the Monster wheels. I don’t think people have requested Daisy or Toadette that often, so here they are. That was a close one in the second lap with the Green Shell—I guess my driving patterns are kind of erratic. That being said, all it takes is one Red Shell to have it all come crashing down. What a way to end this session.
