Mario Kart 8 Official General Discussion

Your bullet bill luck was the same as mine last week. Or items-right-before-you-cross-the-finish-line luck.

Haha, yeah. What's funny, though, is that both times I complained aloud on the stream about not getting bullet bills at all, the game gave me one. Hahahahaha. Kind of like an "Okay, shut up. Here you go."

And didn't you get 2 Crazy 8's in a row? On Hyrule Circuit I think?
 
I stream MK8 every Monday evening at 8:30PM EST, if you're interested. : ) I run a friends-only room to play in, so we'd have to add each other's NNIDs first. Mine is in my sidebar here if you want to add it.


Ok, I have to figure out I'm ID, I just got a wii u so I have to figure what it is or have to do. :)

Oh, I had two stars, not to two crazy 8's. XD

Oh, okay! No rush. NNID will be your Nintendo Network ID. It'll be asking you to assign one to yourself. It's basically like a username you use in your friends list and it shows up in games/etc. Like a handle. And using the Friends List, entering NNIDs is how you add people. : )
 
I'm thinking of holding that MK8 tourney I brought up a while ago.
You know the winner gets a Red Feather and stuff.

But I'm questioning how it would work.
Like would it be better if it was 12 people racing for the highest score at the end?
Or having the tourney open to many throughout the day and whoever has the most points at the end of the day wins?

I don't know, still undecided.
What do you think, person reading this?

Good luck with a tourney, if you do decide to hold one.

I guess you could base it off of points, but with the original players participating only. I'm not sure how it would work, otherwise. Leaving it open all day could get really messy, really quickly. That's just my thoughts, though.

Anyway, I wouldn't be able to take part, since MK8 is more for fun for me and I'd rather not get involved in fiercely competitive situations with prizes on the line, etc. Not my cup of tea. But tons of people out there play competitively, so you probably wouldn't have trouble getting at least 11 to play with.
 
I imagine it'd work out more fair to just limit it to 12 places. Then you can have everyone partake in every race and the only thing affecting score would be disconnects or early drop outs.

Going the whole day will likely leave several hours where there's no one to play against, and the competition could end up just between the most dedicated few. Also, without CPUs you'd only score highly at the busiest times, with CPU, whoever plays longest has the advantage.
 
Yeah I was favoring the first option more but the second one was in the back of my mind.
I think I'll go forward with the first option and put sign-ups up this weekend.
Thanks guys!
 
No worries! You're welcome to join any Monday to race. : ) If you really want, I can VM you before I start. I don't mind. But if that would be a bother, that's cool too.



My pleasure! Thanks for joining, Lock! (WE NEED MORE GIRLS!)



Ahahaha... ha...

I can't believe that troll got picked with SNES Rainbow Road four times in a row. I'm still in disbelief.


Thanks to everyone who came and raced tonight! I hope you guys all had fun! I had a blast racing with you. : )

Smash Bros. Stream tomorrow! (More than likely.)

A VM of a reminder would be helpful to me since I've been forgetful about this lately. I also didn't know you were doing Smash streams either. Are those usually on Tuesdays?

Alright, understood. I'll drop you a VM on Mondays at some point.

As for Smash streams... I don't usually do them on Tuesdays (though I think out of the times I've streamed it so far, they did all land on Tuesdays or somewhere around there). I might start to stream it more often on Tuesdays, though. I'm unsure at this time. This week was due to TBT pressure some coercion from people that wanted one.
 
Your weekly announcement about Mario Kart 8 Monday Madness! 8:30PM EST tonight!

As per usual, I'll put a stream link up closer to starting time. : )

If you'd like to join the racing fun, feel free to add my NNID, let me know who you are, and I'll gladly add you in!

So am I the only one that thinks that there will be an update next month that adds more amiibo costumes?

I think it'll come later, probably the same day the May DLC is released (I think they have to update it so that people who preordered can install it, idk.)

I would like to see Rosalina as a costume.

I'm thinking next month because every 3 months it gets a big update, and every 6 months it gets DLC. Also since a ton of amiibos come out next month like Bowser and Rosalina, it'll probably happen.
 
Probably the best part of the stream.

Dongs really are amazing. The three we have helped my mom a lot these last few months.
 
The best part of this game are the replays. I swear to god. The way each character stares behind at whoever they hit, while driving away. Freaking funny! XD
