Title: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/03/10 at 10:35:13 This is where you can look for the latest times updates. As always, please check your times to make sure they are correct. From the original update thread: Quote:
If you put in the old time, the parser likes to interpret it as two entries for the same thing, and I end up having to edit your message and resubmit it, which for one message isn't bad, but if I have to edit/resubmit several entries, it doubles the amount of time it takes me to update. And one last note, on that note: Until I figure out how to put splits in with the times updates, please do not include splits in your Yahoogroups submission, or any other numbers (like how much time you cut, etc etc etc) -- again, the parser likes to interpret all those as separate times, and I have to edit/resubmit those messages as well.[/quote] To start, times have been updated to #7315. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by KartSeven on 08/03/10 at 10:51:32 Hey ! I always took the habit to write how many hundreths I won in a flap or a 5-laps. A few years ago, Termo already told me there had a problem when I submitted that, so he proposed an alternative way to not change my habit : put my new record like this -> -'--"-- , and put my improvement like this -> -.-- ! For example --> Retro GV1 : 6"95 (-0.12) Am I still allowed to do like this, or not ? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/03/10 at 11:09:15 I wouldn't -- it tries to interpret the cut as another time, so it's best to keep things like that in the PRs topic if possible :) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by DarkRoy on 08/03/10 at 11:39:00 Ok guys, I'm an experienced MKDS updater and it seems like the MKSC updating works the exact same, so I'll try to answer to a few questions. 1) In order to approve times on the yahoogroup, you do not need any special account or password: whoever is the group admin will give you the power to automatically see pending messages on the group's home. So, if you see a phrase saying "xx pending messages", just click on it and approve the times. 2) You need a special account to have access to the updating page; it seems like it wasn't given yet to the times updaters only, though. 3) If you do a mistake and update a slower time, the updating page will highlight the slower time in orange. In fact, if the updating program detects you've sent in a slower time than the one there already was, it will tell you something like, "Updated time was slower than x'xx"xx". After every update, read the results carefully. ;) If you have any other questions I can help as well (I hope). |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/03/10 at 20:04:39 Posting here because Nick told me that some of the messages I thought I updated did not update. Please check your times, and whichever messages did not update, please post with numbers and I will fix it. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Aussie Racer on 08/03/10 at 20:17:26 LC flap: 20"60 Thanks :) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Firewaster on 08/04/10 at 04:08:18 BC 3lap 42"58 BC flap 12"69 BC4 3lap 1'38"51 BC4 flap 30"94 rBC1 flap 12"56 Checking my times vs my profile on the site I found out these ones are wrong. I don't know if it is my fault (forgot to submit) or somehow some messages didn't make it. I posted here, but if you guys want I can send another message to the group with all of them. Thanks in advance! ;) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/04/10 at 05:50:22 ^Yes, please send these in a Yahoogroups message. I can't put just times/names in the parser -- it has to be formatted as an email and as many that are missing atm, I'm not trying to "create" email messages for all of them. If it's already been sent, let me know which message number and I can copy/paste that. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Firewaster on 08/04/10 at 06:10:22 Should I send them in separate messages or is it ok if I send all of them in the same one? Just sent them all in a single msg Last number I saw in the group is #7315, so I'm hoping mine is #7316... The title is "Times" Thanks in advance |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by DarkRoy on 08/06/10 at 06:24:49 I didn't do anything yesterday because I'm not a group moderator yet, but... was I supposed to update? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 08/06/10 at 06:27:59 ^As far as I know that rota doesn't start until next week. Also Tom, when will we get the required info about updating/approving messages? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/06/10 at 06:57:11 ^Are you referring to the login info for the update pages + mod status on the Yahoogroups or the actual how-to? The latter should be in your PM box, but I'm not sure who can add you as a mod on the Yahoogroups to approve messages. Alex should send you the login info for the update pages, but if he doesn't by Sunday, I know it + can send it. Rotation should start Sunday :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 08/06/10 at 07:00:37 I guess I mean both. I didn't get the PM about the how-to! |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/06/10 at 07:02:21 I'll resend it to you -- if you could though, just shoot me a PM letting me know you got it :) ETA: Sent it :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/07/10 at 15:44:16 Times updated to #7332. Also, the following messages have been redone (these were the ones I was made aware of): 7306, 7311, 7312, 7314, and 7315. If any more have been missed, please post here/IM me/PM me with the message number from the Yahoogroups. Tables have also been zeroed out. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/08/10 at 02:32:23 Waaaaaaa why did you zero the charts out? I have not AF Cuts for my news update now :-[ The tables should be zeroed out after every news update. I guess we won't get back the AF cuts, so I'll do the news update without them :-/ Edit: I'll start now, but I don't have any clue about who passed who without AF Cuts...I'll try my best though. If the zeroing out of the charts could be undone, please tell me quickly so I can wait for that instead. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/08/10 at 03:57:25 Sorry for double posting, but while writing the news I realized that you forgot to update Seb's RGV1 3lap Wr and Pierre's RGV1 Flap Wr, I'll still include them in the update but you should add the Wrs soon to the charts :) You forgot some other times as well, RBC1 5lap wr by Pierre. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/08/10 at 06:35:46 ^The RBC1 one did update, but not correctly (as is in the other thread). I PMed Pierre about it and he let me know about the RGV1 time as well, so that's going to be fixed here in a minute. I'll have to find Seb's time in the messages, unless someone happens to know what message number it was. 5F726C60676069050 wrote:
Well, when Mick did news the last few times, he wanted me to zero them before the news update, so that's the habit I've gotten into, and before that, I didn't zero the charts at all for a long time. Now that the new rotation has started, I think all the news updaters have access to the times, and you guys can zero the charts before/after the news updates. Edit: Fixed Pierre's times, added Seb's time, and updated the 3 new messages (to #7335). |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 08/08/10 at 06:58:05 Yep I think the news updater should be the one zeroing the charts, when he wants. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/08/10 at 06:58:46 Sounds good to me. Also, have you guys gotten login info for the times updating? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 08/08/10 at 07:01:46 Nothing yet. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/08/10 at 09:50:42 ^Alright. I don't have authority to mod people on the Yahoogroups (or if I do, idk how to do it), but I'll send the login info for the actual times update page so you guys can at least update messages that are already approved. I figure we can start rotations tomorrow since I've already done a times update today. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/09/10 at 04:25:54 I'm on Mondays now, right? *wondering how this is going to work if I can't approve messages* Edit: Ok so there's only 2 new messages to update. I suppose I'll take a crack at it and see if I don't screw up. Matt Ellis, hope your profile still looks good in 10 minutes. :D Edit: Success! Times have been updated up to message 7337. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/09/10 at 12:25:01 Did you approve messages, or did you just update the approved messages? |

Since I don't have the power to approve messages, I just updated the approved messages. This needs to be fixed if this whole thing is going to run smoothly, though. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by karterfreak on 08/09/10 at 14:39:59 Send me a message if you need someone to approve times, doesn't take much time so i'd be more than willing to help with that ;) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/09/10 at 17:02:25 All times updaters: Send Penev a PM with the email you registered at Yahoogroups with so he can add you to the mods list. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/10/10 at 04:15:06 Okay I can see the pending messages now. :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/10/10 at 04:18:38 Wooo, me too. [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/10/10 at 07:56:08 Times update will be done later today -- I'm at my boyfriend's place, although I should be home for a bit later on. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/10/10 at 17:38:02 In the event that the scheduled updater is not available to update times and April is not able to back up, I'm more than willing to fill in. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 08/11/10 at 04:38:08 Ok then do the update for the next two Sundays :P |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/12/10 at 11:43:56 Since I have wednesday's update I can do the two days on wednesday. Or I can also just do an update on tuesday and wednesday. PS I don't know if DarkRoy is able to do his update today, he isn't yet a mod on the yahoo page |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/12/10 at 17:52:41 ^He actually messaged me on IRC a few days ago and let me know he couldn't -- I just forgot to post asking someone else to cover in the midst of everything else going on atm. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/13/10 at 11:33:08 ^Awesome, thank you :) Just wanted to let everyone know I am now packing the laptop up for school -- I will not be online again until Sunday or Monday or Tuesday sometime. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/13/10 at 12:12:33 Yay, Timur came through. :D Ok, so tomorrow it's Robert Lee's turn. Then I have it for Sunday (covering for Mick) and Monday. Then Tom VK has it for Tuesday and Wednesday. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by thewebinator on 08/13/10 at 19:19:53 Good luck guys. This is seriously going to motivate me to play since I know it will be updated in less than 24 hours. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 08/14/10 at 13:17:44 Times updated to 7358 :) I think everything went okay, but if anyone notices any mistakes just post it here. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/14/10 at 14:29:14 Just a question for Mick. Will tomorrow's news update be done before or after the Chuck's time update? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/15/10 at 05:25:50 I think we should always do the news update after sunday's times update...but that's not too important anyway. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/15/10 at 12:40:40 Er I was just thinking. Mick told Chuck to do his time update, but then he still can't make his news update. I might be able do to one but then it will be tomorrow, but maybe Timur can still do it today? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/15/10 at 12:47:31 If Mick is not available, I could just do a quick times update and a news update right after it. Just tell me if I should do it. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/15/10 at 12:53:12 Are you available next week, Timur? Because I leav the 19th and I won't be able to do the news update. I can do this week's news update tomorrow and then you can do next week's. Anyway it's just a proposal. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/15/10 at 12:58:31 No problem, I can write next week's news update for you if you are not available :) And about this week's update, if you want you can do it and if you don't want to, I can just do it, you just decide that ;) If I should do it, I'll still do it today. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/15/10 at 13:00:30 Well I just feel like I should be doing my duty as a news updater. Just do next week's and don't worry about this week's, I'll take care of that. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/15/10 at 13:03:37 Okay then, but do me a favor and do a times update before you write the update (or start writing after Chuck/whoever did the times update) and reset the AF tables after you finished writing the update, that'll make things easier for me ;) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/15/10 at 14:50:09 Times have been updated to #7367. :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/16/10 at 03:29:50 The news update is finished, but I accidently made it in black. I hope nobody has truoubles reading it. And I decided to give the POW to Robert Lee. EDIT: And I zeroed the charts. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 08/16/10 at 03:37:06 Nice update, thanks for the POW! |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/16/10 at 05:51:06 Times are updated to #7370. [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |

|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/19/10 at 08:19:14 There are no pending messages, so either someone already did it or there are no new posts...I guess it's the first option ;) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/19/10 at 11:02:45 There are just no new messages. I updated til #7376 yesterday and that it still the last message. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/19/10 at 22:55:49 I'll be on vacation next week. I know Timur does my news update on Sunday, but I still need someone who can cover my times update on Wednesday. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/21/10 at 12:28:03 Just to let you guys know, I have moved and currently am having trouble accessing the Internet at home (yay Comcast). I'm hoping this will be fixed by Monday, but if not, I'll still be on Tuesday to do the times update, but may be a bit slow responding to messages. If there is a times-related issue that needs to be fixed ASAP (that can't wait until I have Internet at home), your best bet is to send me a Facebook message (preferably) or email me, since I can check those on my phone, and I can get back to you much sooner. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/22/10 at 16:11:37 I'm having some problems with the parser. It's not recognizing RMC3 as a track, and it will only Calculate 1 out of 7 submissions. I dunno what to do. :-/ |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/23/10 at 05:48:41 You still have that problem?If yes, I'll try it as well. Updated to #7394, everything was alright Chuck...maybe it was just your computer :-/ |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/23/10 at 12:51:06 Hm, that's weird. Thanks for covering. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/24/10 at 08:21:54 ^Yea, that's a bit odd -- I've never seen it before. Times updated to #7395. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 08/25/10 at 16:10:54 Substituting for TvK: Times updated to #7396. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by DarkRoy on 08/26/10 at 14:33:15 ... I have been busy until now, hopefully I'm still in time for updating. Going to see. EDIT: all times have been updated... by someone else. I can't see pending messages yet! |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 08/26/10 at 15:12:28 I just approved two messages if you want to update them, alternatively I can update them. |

|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/29/10 at 04:23:44 Sry for not updating on Friday, I was busy and didn't have the chance to do it, but nobody remarked it so it was probably not that grave ;D I'll do the news after today's update ;) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 08/29/10 at 07:37:10 Okay, I'm back, but I'm still not a group moderator so I can't do the times update :-/ |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 08/29/10 at 09:38:06 For any updaters that have not yet been added as mods on the Yahoogroups: Register on the Yahoogroups site, and PM Penev with the email you registered with so you can be added. That should fix it :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 08/30/10 at 12:47:58 Updates done to #7403. I think last time the problem was my browser. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 09/01/10 at 05:00:30 Times updated to 7309 -- sorry I missed yesterday. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/01/10 at 13:03:51 Times updated to #7411. @ Florian Chollet: you sent a message saying your new PR on BC1 was 48"61. I noticed it too late and i updated it. Can you please send a new message with your real PR asap. Sry. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by flo233 on 09/01/10 at 13:17:07 Done i don't know why i put 48 instead of 42 |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by DarkRoy on 09/02/10 at 12:50:51 May someone approve the pending messages? I can't yet... I'm going to update in a few hours, anyway. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 09/02/10 at 13:14:36 I can do that now. Edit : Done |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by DarkRoy on 09/02/10 at 16:26:57 Updated to #7416. A new member joined, but I couldn't figure his mail out. Maybe you can check him out if you know how to do that. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 09/02/10 at 21:10:17 I'm not going to be able to update Monday. Someone please cover for me. I'm going out of town for a little thing called the Ultimate Game Tournament. ;D |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/03/10 at 06:43:48 I will take care of that. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/03/10 at 12:41:47 No new times to update [smiley=bath.gif] |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 09/04/10 at 15:29:32 Times updated to #7420. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 09/05/10 at 12:49:27 Since my current connection is very slow and unstable, next time update will probably be done Monday early morning GMT time. Edit : nevermind... there's nothing to update. Trouble saved [smiley=lolk.gif] |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/05/10 at 13:11:20 ^Mick, are you aware of the fact that it's your turn to do written update(should have been done on Saturday already)...if you don't have the time, I(or Tom probably) could take care of that. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 09/05/10 at 13:17:44 Absolutely not. Since when the date assignations have been changed ? Whatever I'll try to do it for tomorrow evening. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/05/10 at 13:31:50 They haven't been changed, here it the link of the roster: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0Aqv6mLF-nUkrdGhqd2pVT20tdXNYTERSem5ydWZUa0E&sort=name&layout=list&num=50 You're in there for 9/4/2010 , so I thought I should remind you since there were no news ;) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 09/05/10 at 13:40:59 This is radically different from the roster I've seen last time. I wonder why I haven't been informed about that. Also I already said I probably couldn't do the update on Sept. 25th, but my name is still there :-/ Timur, do you think we can switch the Sept. 18th and Sept. 25th news updates ? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/06/10 at 05:41:35 Sure, no problem for me at all ;) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/06/10 at 07:31:52 I will do the times update after Mick finished the news |

Nevermind about this, my trip has been moved to one week earlier ;D I'll do the update as originally planned on the 25th. But for now my problem is I don't know how to write the news on the site :( |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/06/10 at 12:11:41 Go to greymatter (Gaff sent you the link) and log in (also in the PM). Then selct Add a new entry and just write the news in the big box, with the title in the top box. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 09/06/10 at 12:21:27 Thanks, but the only PM's I got from Tom were about the KC2010 ::) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/06/10 at 12:35:14 I can send you my ID and password and you can write it there if you want to. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 09/06/10 at 12:42:08 I don't think I'll have the time to complete a news update for today, I have to wake up early tomorrow. I think either you or Timurwould have to do it... Sorry for the inconvenience again, I think I should just retire from the updating team at this point. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/06/10 at 12:46:25 Don't retire, one of us will take care of the news, or you can just do it tomorrow. Times updated to message #7421 @ Gaff or April: There is a guy named James Engelsma who claims to have a time of 1'17"23 on "bowser castle three". I thought he meant RBC3, but he also said that his flap was 24"13. He also says that he wants to provide proof. I approved the message, but didn't update it. One of you should decide what to do. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/06/10 at 12:54:43 Na don't give up yet Mick, your updates were really great. Tom or I will take care of this weeks update, don't worry about it, you will then do the next update on the 25th of September. @Tom it's too late for me to do the update now and I already did the last 2 updates, so would you mind taking care of this week's news? If you can't do it, I'll write it tomorrow, tell me whatever you like :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/06/10 at 13:01:25 I won't be able to do it tonight. I can do it tomorrrow. I also don't think that I'll be able to do my times update on Wednesday. I don't have a lot of time this week. I'll do it tomorrow, there weren't too many active players this week, so it won't be too much work. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/06/10 at 13:05:03 Alright then, you do the news tomorrow and I'll take care of your times update on Wednesday ;D |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/07/10 at 08:11:22 News is finished, unfortunately it is in black again [smiley=uzi.gif] dunno what I'm doing wrong |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 09/07/10 at 14:32:33 I'm back from the gaming tournament. I finished 7th overall out of 16 players, but I placed first in Star Wars Episode 1: Racer and Mario Kart: Double Dash (the two racing games of the event, quite predictable). Everyone was amazed at me taking tight turns, lol. ANYWAY, I'm back so I'll be able to continue updating times when my turn comes up Monday. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 09/08/10 at 03:09:12 Sorry about not posting yesterday -- I checked and there was nothing there yesterday morning, then didn't check after I got home last night. I went on ahead and approved the message in there this morning, but I'll let today's updater update it :) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 09/11/10 at 04:38:53 Times updated to #7426 There was some guy claiming WRs on BC3 so I obviosly left them out. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/11/10 at 04:42:53 Are the normal time updaters capable of giving someone a proof tick, because GAS has proven himself and certainly deserves one. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 09/11/10 at 05:40:29 ^I'm not really sure, but I think Tom or April might take care of that. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/11/10 at 08:00:09 I gave him a proof tick, I guess he has enough proof for it :) Edit: Lol, the proof tick doesn't appear, but his status is now video proof...strange ::) Probably April/Tom have to add that tick |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by DarkRoy on 09/11/10 at 08:04:32 You must refresh the tables. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/11/10 at 08:07:23 Ah ok it worked, thanks Nicola [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |

|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 09/12/10 at 04:33:11 Just a minor thing, but shouldn't Andrew Howes be off the time updaters list? I think he has left the board completely. I'll do Monday updates if need be. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 09/12/10 at 06:01:36 It wasn't ever actually fixed on the spreadsheet, but we changed it to where Chuck Foster did Monday updates and I did Tuesday updates to cover, but thank you for the offer :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 09/12/10 at 06:37:26 Oh, that's cool. Thanks for clearing it up for me. [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/12/10 at 11:01:39 Finished the news |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 09/12/10 at 11:43:16 Thanks for bothering to do 2 news updates in a row. I'll do the times update just before going to bed after I'm done with my homework. @ Rob : What am I supposed to do with your last mail ? ::) [edit]Finally I got to understand that update system after 30mn. Did multiple mistakes but fixed them all (I think). Times updated to #7428.[/edit] |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Firewaster on 09/12/10 at 15:17:58 It says Florian got the POW for the second week of August, but we are in September... :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/13/10 at 09:23:06 Ah my bad. I was so happy that the text was in the right color that I didn't notice it. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chuck Foster on 09/13/10 at 14:34:27 No times to update today. The last updated message remains at 7428. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 09/14/10 at 06:19:34 No new times, so it's still at #7428. ALSO -- times updaters: if you are updating times and come across a questionable time, email the person directly. Don't post it on the Yahoogroups, for similar reasons to why people are advised against posting MB topics accusing other people of cheating. (Another thing I just thought of: not everyone on the Yahoogroups receives the email messages.) Just email them and ask for proof and don't update the questionable times until proof is given. I'll let you all use your good judgment here. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/14/10 at 07:12:48 OK I'll send a message to James Engelsma if nobody has done it yet. And Gaff are you still thinking on the POQs? |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/15/10 at 11:07:35 Times updated to message #7431 |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 09/17/10 at 10:35:13 FYI, I will be out of town this weekend (coming home), and will probably have little/no internet outside of Facebook. Anything highly pressing either needs to be sent to Tom or sent to me via Facebook :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/17/10 at 10:45:06 Is your facebook name April Thompson? If so add as your friend, because are way too many April Thompsons on facebook. My user account is just Tom van Kessel. I am NOT the dutch guy with the soccer shirt, but the other one. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by KartSeven on 09/21/10 at 15:23:54 Yep, I didn't see before, I was so close to Mick ! So last week-end, I played 2 hours and managed 3 new laps, just for the fun of taking 2nd place again... ;D |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 09/21/10 at 22:40:13 Sorry I didn't get to my update yesterday (I checked -- there are a few messages needing approval/updating)...I've been laid up in bed with a nasty bacterial upper respiratory infection and completely forgot about coming back to do it yesterday afternoon. |

Anyway news are done, going to zero charts then update all of this. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/26/10 at 12:51:25 You should PM Gaff to get a greymatter account yourself, then you don't have to send the news to someone else always |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 09/26/10 at 13:11:53 Times updated to #7457 I left out Matt David's RDP3 times because the flap was very strong compared to the rest of the PR's (I assume a forbidden SC has been used) He also submitted flaps that were slower than his 3laps / 3 ::) I'm fixing that. [edit]Also deleted his RiR flap[/edit] |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 09/26/10 at 13:21:19 I allready sent him a PM about it. Yay at finally another Belgian player joins the site with a total timesheet |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Hover4Life on 10/17/10 at 09:30:27 Slight typo on the news: - #17 Stacy Needham did almost the same amount of AF cut (0.6625) and like Alencar didn't gain any places. However thanks to numerous and solid PR's, including 2 new GOD times on RBC2 5lap and RCI1 flap, he reached the Titan overall standard ! Well done ! I got god on the 5lap, not the flap (I only tied the flap god standard) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 10/17/10 at 10:06:31 ^I can't fix it (only the person who wrote it can fix it iirc), but keep working on that flap so we can put that in next week's news :) Also, a huge thank you to all the times/news updaters who have helped keep everything up to date. I really appreciate everything you guys do for the site :D |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 11/09/10 at 17:44:17 Updaters: Anyone want to check/update times on Tuesdays until mid-December? Things at school are getting hectic, so I generally check up on things, but haven't been able to update like I like to. I should be able to pick back up once fall semester is over, but if someone wants to do Tuesday times updates until then, that would be awesome :) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 11/10/10 at 03:31:51 Sure :) I'll substitute for as long as you need. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by DarkRoy on 11/11/10 at 15:07:04 May someone approve the pending messages? I'll update them tomorrow evening. Sorry for not covering the last two weeks; school can really be a pain sometimes. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 11/11/10 at 15:11:26 ^ I just approved my own PR [smiley=lolk.gif] How are you still unable to approve messages ? Are you sure you are connected to the yahoogroups ? Sometimes I notice I can't see the messages to be approved, but it was because I was actually logged out... |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by DarkRoy on 11/12/10 at 05:45:03 Times updated to #7613. I didn't approve Adam Frederick's 59.93 on RDP3. Yes, I'm logged in. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 11/13/10 at 13:05:56 Updated to #7617 I sent Adam Frederick an e-mail about his BC3 flap. It was on the site as 22:75, which is obviously a mistake; but today he said his real time is 25:58, but that's still not in line with the rest rest of his times. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 11/14/10 at 14:57:05 Updated to #7620 |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 11/16/10 at 05:49:34 I just checked, and didn't see anything to update. Any times updater (Robert?) that wants to check later today, go for it :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 11/16/10 at 07:17:23 Yup, I'll check later tonight. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 11/16/10 at 07:21:12 I approve 2 messages earlier without updating them (because this isn't my day). I can update them now :P |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 11/16/10 at 14:57:30 Updated to #7623 Mick: You can update any day if you have the free time, as long as the updating gets done, it doesn't matter who's doing it really. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mick on 11/16/10 at 23:40:17 I would end up updating every day then :P |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 11/27/10 at 07:38:48 Fenner, if you want us to update your times, you have to write them all down and then send them to the yahoogroups. I won't look up all your vids and do the work for you. If that's what you actually wanted by sending that mail... |

No staff member will type out all your times for you because you're too damn lazy to do it yourself (and like Robert said, we can't just type things into the parser -- they have to be in email form anyway). I'm leaving Terrance's messages in the pending section until Gaff has a chance to look at them, just because I don't feel comfortable adding him myself considering his prior record without other more experienced players looking at those vids first. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 11/30/10 at 20:31:04 I checked and did not see any new times to update. However, I did find something in the news from a couple weeks ago: Quote:
To all times updaters (I think all the news updaters do times as well): if it looks weird (ex: a player with mainly beginner/intermediate times sends in something that could make the top 10), it probably needs proof. Don't add these times until proof is provided -- email the player and ask for proof. There isn't a hardfast rule on this; as experienced MKSC players, I trust your judgment. No one specifically is at fault or in trouble here; I figured now would be a good time to bring that up: times updaters have the right (and honestly, the responsibility to the community) to ask for proof of times that don't quite match up. Anyway, I deleted it and asked for proof. |

It's amazingly better than all of his other times and this is a prime track for illegal shortcuts being used unknowingly. April, would you mind deleting the time (if you agree with me, of course) and e-mailing Matt Davis about this time? I would do it, but I don't know how to delete a time.

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 02/25/11 at 16:06:16 Is anyone going to get the Award Page up to date? Tbh, I'm too lazy to do that now, I might do it in some days though if no one else wants to do it ;) And who's going to decide PoM January? Still no one has said anything about that ::) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 02/26/11 at 04:04:27 Everything updated except for the January POM and the POW for last week because I couldn't find it in the update |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Kmacc on 02/26/11 at 12:05:28 I wish I could help with that, but I did what I could for the month. :( MKSC is even more active than MKDS now; this will be the first month in the history of MKDS that there have been under 100 submissions for a single month... |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hαhααξ. on 03/20/11 at 22:56:35 The top screen of my DS broke off, so now I will be racing on 100% speed, without savestates on the VBA emulator. I will stream everything so there is no suspicion, etc. It will all be on my JustinTV account. If I happen to get a PR on the emulator while streaming, is it alright if I send it in to the PP? I'm kinda screwed without my DS, y'know. I could play on the GCN, but it has a terrible framerate. EDIT: http://www.justin.tv/ethan4u EDIT 2: Stream Number 1 (Improved quality!): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DcNzK9BbnI |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hαhααξ. on 03/22/11 at 22:07:36 Can I please send in the PR I got on the emulator for SNES GV1? The time is 0'49"58 using Toad with no ZZMTs. I got it in a 10-minute (Or close to that) streaming session of me streaming without any savestates, etc., on 100% speed. I had several other streams that were much larger (Several hours), but they were uneventful and took up a HUGE amount of space, so I removed them. I did get some best splits in those streams, but all of those splits were topped in this one stream due to me shrooming earlier at the shroomspot. Mind you, there's no way I can play now except on the emulator. If you want a picture of my precious DS that I dropped, well, here. The one on the left is my old GBA, which my cousins broke. The one in the middle is the fat DS, and the one on the right is my DS Lite. It broke in March 2009 so I dissected it about a month ago. http://i359.photobucket.com/albums/oo32/hahaae123/DSCN0158.jpg The YouTube video of the stream will be up in a few hours. (Assuming nothing happens to the upload...) Please, I seriously worked hard for this PR, and I will stop using the VBA emulator (Though I may still use it for SC times, with stream ofc, so I don't ruin my runs with glitches more than I already have) when I get that GBA SP. I'm doing all that I can do to still be able to play, get PRs, and make it clear that I DON'T make a TAS then claim it is my PR. Until then, there is no way I can play MKSC without using an emulator. :( |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 03/23/11 at 00:31:06 PR is at the end. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTZjeKFG4UE[/media] |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 03/23/11 at 04:18:06 Ethan, we can't allow times that are set on an emulator. But is it really such a big deal for you, this single PR? You don't have a full timesheet, you're not close to a spectacular rank promotion, it is not a WR or a CR... I know you would really like to see your time on the site, but you'll just have to be patient and wait for your new GBA. You are a trusted player and I believe you, but it's just not according to the rules, and I can't change them. You can always try to PM Tom or April, they have higher powers than I have. But I guess you're able to wait some time until you get your new GBA and if you get it, it will be huge motivation trying to beat your old PR. You know, before the new updating system was made, we always had to wait about a month or so, to see our new PRs updated. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 03/23/11 at 04:54:35 Oh boy, that really sucks then, because I'm not going to be able to order the fucking thing until summer. fgsfds. Better go and see if I can get into MKDD I guess. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 04/02/11 at 03:56:40 #7982 Nice debut on the AF charts Guillaume! I'm unsure if your BC2 times are accurate because I accidentally updated them as RBC2 at first, so I had to fish through your old PMs to find a time. If it's incorrect, please include it with your next submission. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mario86 on 04/02/11 at 07:31:24 Thanks for the update! ;) And yep, those BC2 times were correct, I was really happy with the 3-lap at the time I drove it... There is a rather good source to find my "old" PRs, apart from one or two which I corrected, all I had 7 years ago is correct here: http://www.mario-museum.net/records.htm |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mario86 on 04/02/11 at 08:37:46 Hmm, seems that BC2 weren't the only mistaken PRs, my BC1 PR is a bit better than 1'17" ::) ::) ::) and the flap is not that good... you uploaded the RBC1 PR twice I think. ;) Correct times are 14"80 / 44"73 with Toad. I will probably beat them soon, but can this be fixed too please? The rest is OK. :) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by T-Man on 04/20/11 at 15:16:54 no problem man...just now I send in 5 PRs [smiley=happy.gif] |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 04/20/11 at 16:35:16 Just telling you guys that I'm away from 23rd-1st, can't do any news or times update in the time span ::) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by T-Man on 04/21/11 at 07:20:07 um dude, when I posted my new DP3 time, I send in an error time since the video quality at the end was kind of blurred (I typed in 9"15, which wasn't...) 9"16 actually - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StYGTHYjiUI and Mick, when you update my profile, please omit #8096 okay...It's an error :-[ |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by robman60 on 04/22/11 at 09:23:50 #8117 Terrence, I didn't update your YD time because you used used a forbidden path. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by T-Man on 04/22/11 at 09:26:53 Damn...I didn't know [smiley=dead.gif] and now I'm stuck with 2/80 SC PRs YD 59"36 & MC1 43"73 (ticking) >:( >:( all well, I'll probably leave that PR alone and delete the 59"36 [smiley=engel017.gif] |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TheKartingAtheist on 04/22/11 at 09:41:20 Since the YD shroom is banned, someone might as well take my times off the site as I also used it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XphIj1MQwTE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsUtIUqf78M |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by T-Man on 04/22/11 at 10:16:16 I don't know about that Stacy...because I went to the MKSC map rule on YD and I think the second shroom is allowed because I remember Seb doing that on the flap 17"16 (let alone the 3rd shroom which was a bitch to succeed)...we should probably make an update rule on YD ::) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TheKartingAtheist on 04/22/11 at 10:24:36 The 2nd shroom is perfectly legal, and I'm not questioning that. I'm just saying the banned shroom really isn't that different, which is why I feel this shroom should be allowed on the PP. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by NStride on 04/22/11 at 10:25:13 Maybe. Doesn't "abusive corner-cutting" imply that in doing so, the time is considerably faster than if the strat wasn't used in the first place? This strat seems slower, or at best equal to the current allowed path. Who knows anyway who else has used this and doesn't know it's illegal anyway. Either way, I think the map needs to be updated to either firmly state whether or not this cut is allowed. |

|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by T-Man on 04/22/11 at 10:53:22 The YD strat needs to be allowed because to me it makes this course a little easier than I expected :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TheKartingAtheist on 04/22/11 at 11:06:34 Another little point defending the strat; It's easy to accidentally hit one of the bumps during a flap attempt, which is covered by this; "Occasionally you will swerve above part of a corner when airborne after using a Mushroom. This is allowed, as long as you are adhering to the Non-SC route." |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mwopick on 04/22/11 at 11:43:57 I know some of the rules looks really dumb or out of place (not to lack respect to those who made them, as it must have hard to write clear rules with so many SC's/glitches) but those cannot be changed now. It would be unfair for all the players who purposely tried to not use this cut. If that was me I would either allow thus specific or ban the second shroom cut, as I've also been victim of the rules of this track (amongst others) but it may be just too late to come back at this point 5 years after the rules were set. Then again you could just PM Tom about his opinion on this, but he didn't write the general rules. I'd just recommend sticking with the current rules for the time being, but definitely clarifications regarding what is allowed/forbidden on this track, considering the amount of people that have accidently broke the rules. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mwopick on 04/23/11 at 15:43:24 #8138 Andy you may refrain from posting a message every single time you PR. ::) It makes the updating process unnessecarily longer, and furthermore the yahoogroups do not sort up the messages by chronological order, thus leading to the possibility of weaker PR's being updated instead of the current ones. Not like the chats are updated every day anymore ! |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by NStride on 04/23/11 at 16:12:18 Haha, I'm not doing it every time I PR either lol. But okay, I'll try to group them a bit more. I'll use Word or something to keep track then, because I kept forgetting. That's why my submissions have been... frequent. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by T-Man on 04/23/11 at 17:47:05 Do like I do Andy, instead of one at a time on posting @ yahoo...wait until you finish recording you first group (>5), and after you finish with your first group of PRs, make it for the 2nd group [smiley=thumbsup.gif] hope it helps bud! |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by NStride on 05/24/11 at 12:29:42 Then why are you posting that you sent in PRs? You do understand that the purpose of this thread is not to proclaim when you send in PRs... rather, that the updating team has a place to let the players know when their times have been updated, right? (But it also has other secondary functions like you've used before, such as when there's a mistake in the times etc.) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 05/24/11 at 15:29:46 ^ This this this this this. Fenner -- the whole purpose of this thread is for the updating team to let everyone know when times have been updated and where to, and for reporting issues with times updating. Use the PR thread -- that's what it's there for. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mwopick on 05/26/11 at 08:08:25 The charts will be refreshed after the news update is done.

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by NStride on 07/08/11 at 10:17:37 Hey guys, I usually don't request time updates since they come really frequently already, but could you guys do a time update sometime today? I'm trying to send the times in a different fashion than I normally do, and I want to make sure it works and the times actually make it to the site. If you could do that, it would put my concerns to rest, thanks. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 07/08/11 at 10:20:17 Your wish is my command #8447 Parser had no troubles recognizing your times so you can keep the format. Also your RBC3 time was slower than your previous one, so I don't know if you typo'd in this time or in your previous one. If you typo'd in this one, than just send a new message. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 07/20/11 at 04:31:42 ^I'm not the only one who is active at the top of the charts ;). And well, I have a weird feeling that I will never reach a TOP10 in any MK game ;D ;D ;D there's always that special feeling which pushes me to the higher ranks, but short before the TOP10 I feel like: "ah, one PR a day is more than enough..." but lately I don't feel like playing kart at all. Other players like you, NStride and Stacy are sometimes active, I think that's more than enough :). (Also, my R-Button is acting weird, doesn't work sometimes at all, it takes all the fun if you want to do an important jump and then the R-Button doesn't work...) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 07/20/11 at 05:12:15 If I get off my lazy ass and try to get a full sheet/try to pass you, will you start trying to play more?? :33 And yeah, I used to have the same R button issue on my Phat DS.

Practice counter-steering after each turn, that really helps a LOT. Another thing that helps is to hop after a drift, as it will keep you in one path. Other than that, it just takes a little bit of getting used to. |

For the tracks with narrow paths and difficult turns (the RBCs and the RDPs especially) you could consider using DK as his handling is slightly better than Bowser's, and you won't be sacrificing a significant amount of speed. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 07/27/11 at 18:57:44 ^The 3-lap looks fine from first glance (someone correct me if I'm wrong), but the flap looks very SC. I'll take care of it in the morning, unless another times updater wants to take care of it first :) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by NStride on 08/04/11 at 07:48:57 Another time update coming soon? If you need help updating times, I'll gladly offer my assistance.

This is going to sound somewhat unfriendly, mostly because it is, but why would you make 13 submissions for 10 PRs? Wouldn't things go smoother for all involved if there were fewer? If all of them getting through is a priority and you are anxious to see an update, the likelyhood of a fast and accurate update would perhaps increase with fewer messages. This is not to say that updaters easily get confused, but rather that a concise workload is more convenient to handle efficiently. Sorry for spelling it out like the profoundly impertinently pertinent petulant pompous pother-poster I probably am. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by NStride on 08/04/11 at 09:28:36 I do not expect such PR streaks, and I submitted a couple PRs more than once because I improved them. I struggle sending more than one at a time because I get confused about what I send and don't send. It's easier to just send the PR off in the mail than write it down and risk it getting lost in my room or not making the next time update in time. That's why I'm offering to help too, because I know I am a bit of a spammer. No problem about sounding unfriendly, that was like a little poke compared the fist fight over Fenner. :P |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by A Runnelid on 08/04/11 at 09:47:09 OK, thanks for the information. Also, I would like it said that being less aggressive comparatively doesn't by that criterion alone make it (any more) right, and I can very much feel uneasy by posting such as I did, be it justified or not, and I am glad you did not take offence to it. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 08/04/11 at 13:10:58 I have a question for the updaters: Why did a message advertising an herbal sex pill get approved (message #8507)? -Christophe. Edit: Also, Hervé Schintu (message #8503) sent in all his Retro 5lap times, but his rRR 5lap got updated as his RR 5lap. Also, his rDP3 5lap seems very suspicious compared to the rest of his times (#25/Hero B as opposed to his average of 82.25/mostly Intermediates and Beginners). |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/05/11 at 01:39:18 I'll do a times and news update now, but Shock, Andreas is right, we as the update team would appreciate it if you wrote your PRs somewhere else and then send them in one submission, or at least in less submissions. It's a pain to update 20 messages of one player when it could be 3 or 4. So if you don't mind, spare us some time, not like we're doing too much of it but it would make work easier ::) Also lol @ the sex pill and I'll take care of the other stuff. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by NStride on 08/15/11 at 14:42:53 The stats program updates up to a certain date and time that the site takes a "picture" of and stores it to the program. Sometimes this means if your times were updated after the last picture was taken and before the news update, the news won't cover all the way through the PRs you submitted. Basically, the news will always likely be half a step behind the PRing action. Half a step in your case meant a lot of PRing though. ::) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Andrea Gardina on 08/15/11 at 14:44:12 Well, at least count them in next news update. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/16/11 at 00:07:00 It is because I made a times update right after Timur made the news. This is also why Andy wasn't listed as #3 yet, because he only became that after I did the times update |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/16/11 at 01:39:30 Because the "week" was over already so I didn't want to add things to the news which actually aren't in that week. Whatever. Didn't have to do anything with the stat page. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by V|K on 08/16/11 at 01:45:19 The news covers (at least we try to) always the same amount of time, 1 week. By covering 1 week every time, we are able to award POWs every week without messing up (and believe me it is pretty easy to mess up the awards). Your message was only sent in after the period of time that the news update covered, so it couldn't be included in the news. It doesn't matter if the news update is written 9 days after the last one, it will still cover only the week after the last update. The messages that came in on day 8 and 9 after the last new update will ofcourse be included in the news update of next week. I hope this is understandable. |

|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 08/23/11 at 16:35:59 Timur, can you bring a glimmer of hope to this barren land of non-updateness!? Andrea desperately needs to be able to officially gloat at being past me on the AF chart (or at least very close)! -Christophe. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/24/11 at 03:23:15 Fine relax I'll do it asap |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/25/11 at 02:31:00 No, I did all of them. If you want something to be added to the news, or if something's missing, send it in in the next hour or so. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by theDOC on 08/25/11 at 02:50:02 Re-sent a bunch of times, you'll have to do some work, because you forgot about 20 or so times, i hope for you that mine are the only time you forgot, because if not you kinda have to do another update. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/25/11 at 02:53:34 No, I know what the problem is. When parsing, the order of the messages gets sometimes a bit "randomized". I think it's just that you send in new times before the old ones were updated, and since the order was the other way round the slower ones got updated. That's why it's always better to send less messages. Less work for the updaters, not many mistakes. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by theDOC on 08/25/11 at 03:46:56 Ok, can you fix it please? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/25/11 at 03:48:31 I'll update soon, so i you resent your times that are missing it should be fine. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TvK on 09/29/11 at 11:30:19 Sorry for the late reply, but finally my school started this week. My school is pretty far away from my home and I stay there the whole week. The thing is that I don't have internet yet, and I also don't know when I'll get it. So Timur could you do this week's news update (if you're able to, I am at home in the weekends) and do some time updates during the week, when I'm unable to? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 09/29/11 at 12:32:57 Sure thing, I still have some time until university starts, and even then I guess I'll have enough time to deal with that stuff. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 10/19/11 at 03:01:16 News is up, it is pretty long(and not really informative LOL), but I hadn't really time to check things since I have to go now, sorry for any spelling/grammar/whatever mistakes. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 10/19/11 at 05:53:19 ^Awesome update Timur! [smiley=roll.gif] I think the funniest part is you trying to figure out how to incorporate an 8th player in the news! ;D Well, definately worth the wait! :) -Christophe. P.S.: Thank god you got my Dragon Ball from MVT, he wouldn't stop bitching since it appeared... :-/ |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TvK on 10/19/11 at 12:13:35 Damn Timur I was lmao all the time. Definitely worth the two-week waiting.

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 10/19/11 at 13:10:56 Thanks for all the nice feedback, if I have the time I'll do this more often, it was funny when the ideas started to roll in my head ;D . Don't expect that always though, as I said, I might have a lack of time sometimes :P |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zarkov on 10/19/11 at 13:42:34 That was quite possibly the best news update ive ever read. I liked the part where I was playing with ketchup. Well done Timur. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TvK on 10/27/11 at 06:57:14 I wanted to do the news yesterday, but there wasn't really a lot to write about, so I'll do it at the end of the month, unless someone really wants me to do it now. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by theDOC on 10/29/11 at 08:57:37 So the update will come out on 31st/1st? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 10/31/11 at 13:55:50 #8708 And Andrea, please try to post less messages, I think there were 3 messages that contained the same times, and 1 message you probably wanted to send to MKW [smiley=lolk.gif]. Anyway, it would be better if you would just send every time just 1 time, it got very confusing for me to update also because of the KB thing...anyway, I think everything's fine now. Also welcome to our new Italian player Lorenzo |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 11/01/11 at 02:01:16 Olol... look how I got 0.001 combined points for doing nothing. That happened because of the new player, I even lost AF, but still got that point ;D Also, insane Nicola, your progress is extreme! |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by A Runnelid on 11/17/11 at 01:53:45 Rather, I think you need to humbly consider that news updaters, dedicated and diligent as they are, undertake this voluntarily on their free time and may be preoccupied with other matters. I don't mean for that to sound rude, but let's not put pressure on people so hastily. |

You don't sound rude at all, but i want to expose something to you and the whole community. You, just as me and the other members of the community, know that the updates now come twice a month, and besides that, even yahoo group hasn't messages updated after 9th/10th. And besides, you (just as me again) offered your help to the site, but we got ignored, or more probably tom/other members of the staff thank the site is ok atm. But i think our updaters need help at the moment. If Timur and TvK can't update the site with regularity (even if their updates are the funniest i've ever seen), they need help, and i would like to leave the updates to you if Gaff thinks i'm not ok to update. But the fact is that the site needs another updater, besides Timur and TvK. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by A Runnelid on 11/17/11 at 02:51:47 Thank You for elaborating, it is much appreciated. Truth be told, I was not ignored. I was told by April via the MB that if I was interested in contributing, I just needed to let her know. This response was not exclusively directed at me personally, so I would assume this applies to anyone who wishes to help out. I have been somewhat busy lately at work as there are things to be done before rounding out the year, but I expect that within a month (on my schedule, I can't speak for what the staff members may be occupied with), I will be adequately initiated to be of at least some assistance.

It's not as easy at the time since university is taking quiet some time and the rest of my time has been in the Flo discussion atm. I cannot do more than apologize for it, but I had to do it. Now that the discussion is on the way anyway, I can take care of updates normally again. Can't say more than sorry one more time. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Vorsch on 11/17/11 at 09:55:12 There is something wrong with the main charts in that update.

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 12/11/11 at 08:08:12 I removed the inaccurate times that were brought to my attention last week -- attempted to contact all involved but only one person requested their time be fixed. That one was fixed, the rest removed. If you were PMed and your time removed, to have it readded, just resubmit it to the Yahoogroups as you would a regular time submission. Florent and Karel will be readded later today, and I'll check to see if a times update still needs to be done. TvK, how is the training going for the new updaters? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Vorsch on 12/13/11 at 08:39:00 I'm not sure deleting every false times is always a good idea. Because of one inaccurate RMC2 time, Martin Morissette disappeared from the AF list. He is a well trusted player, so it probably was just a typo. Removing a top 30 player from the AF list for such a small typo is unhealthy for the competition, I think. Perhaps the best solution would be to revert his time to his previous submission? It was a 1'01"48. |

It's not like they can't come back to AF -- they just need to resubmit the correct time. I'm not going back and researching all these people's old times and reverting them. Really, it's on them to make sure the correct times are submitted. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Vorsch on 12/14/11 at 16:32:51 Some of those players haven't been active in any mk for years! Why would they bother answering your mail? They simply don't care about this site any more, and that is perfectly understandable. I've looked around, and those time suppressions made us lose a lot of people on the af list (which is our main ranking list). Less people on our main ranking = less healthy competition. I care about those things. If you want, I'm willing to go check the yahoogroup to hunt for old times. I just need a list of the deleted times, and I'll do all the hard work. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 12/16/11 at 12:01:45 Sorry I didn't update yesterday guys, I'm leaving to France for a 10-day vacation tonight and I've been busy preparing my stuff/doing last minute homework. Unfortunately, that means I'm going to be unreliable until 2012, so please forgive me until then. I'd still like to get that Tuesday updating slot if possible, but if Chris doesn't want to then I'll deal with it. Apologies once again, Christophe. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Vorsch on 12/18/11 at 06:59:44 Another point about the time suppression issue. Several players have changed their email address since then, and can't be contacted to correct their times. Someone complained recently on the combined rankings topic that his mksc total was deleted, and he didn't know why. That guy obviously didn't receive the mail about his inaccurate times, and therefore couldn't correct his timeset. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 12/18/11 at 07:19:52 Here's the thing (and I'm really trying to be nice here): It is up to each player to maintain their own profile. This means that each player's responsibility is to maintain some kind of way that they can be contacted, and to make sure their times are accurate when they submit them. As staff, we upload the times and try to contact players about inaccurate times before deleting them, but it is not up to the staff to chase players down and make sure their timesheet is correct and complete. It isn't as easy to readd times as it may appear -- we can't just click on someone's name and plug a time in. It actually has to be fabricated into some email format and put back through the parser (which I'm not doing for that many players, esp ones that haven't been around in years anyway) -- if someone is missing a time and want to correct it, all they have to do is resubmit the time, and the correct formatting is there to readd it. Also, several players complained about inaccurate times, so I fixed it, so I don't really want to hear complaining about incomplete timesheets now, when the responsibility of maintaining a complete timesheet is up to the players themselves, not the staff. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Vorsch on 12/18/11 at 07:40:22 I agree with you that it shouldn't be the staff responsibility. Once again, I'm willing to do all the hard work myself of searching the yahoogroups, hunting the players online and submitting the new times. All I need is your authorization (and, ideally, a list of deleted times, but I can do it without it). I honestly don't see what's wrong with that, I'm just trying to help improving the site. |

Also, I am kind of confused. You posted on your Facebook 2 hours after rage-quitting the player's pages with accusatory messages that it was the best day of your life.

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 01/18/12 at 14:48:34 #8811 Before my short write-up, I have a message for Karel: as much as I appreciate your stories (they're awesome for giving some background on your PRs, but also for future references), the parser does not, especially when you put in a ton of numbers (such as target times, time cut and splits). In fact, the parser gets very mad and makes me suffer. :D In light of this, I'd appreciate it if you either did not send any splits/whatnot in your messages or if you changed any non-PR numbers to a format that the parser does not recognize (such as x*xx*xx, for example). I didn't update your times because of this, so please send in another message with this in mind. :) New player Tyler Vanderwater joins with 3lap times on PC and CL. Sebastian Wimmer improves 15 times (including a Top 70 CCI 3lap) to get his AF under 100 and lands at #91. Krystian Wieczorek keeps up the activity with almost 2.5 AF cut, moves up to #86. His timesheet is extremely uneven, with most of his PRs hovering around the Top 100, but with some of them, like his recent LC 3lap and rKB1 5lap, that are inside the Top 40! Jonathan Steel is another one of our recent recruits that is keeping up the activity, with 7 new PRs since the last update, which boosts him to #53. 3 of these new times are ranked at #41 (CCI flap, rBC2 dual). I sent in 4 new PRs, all of which were terribad. Ben Allen sent in a rRR flap he's not satisfied with (despite being ranked #8!), because he wants to beat Florian Chollet's recent Non-ZZMT WR (he's only "05 away). Florian Chollet continued playing from last update and got a new RR 3lap PR, now ranked #9. This update + write-up took me way too long, props to Mr. Nosey, Zwiebel and TvK for distracting me in chat. -Christophe. Edit: #8813 Saw Michi's post, felt benevolent. Michael Vogt joins the activity this week, with 4 new PRs across 3 tracks, including a nice Top 30 rVL1 flap. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by KVD on 01/18/12 at 15:12:59 Would this format be ok? PC 53"56 (-0*12) (#12) Splits: L1 12*76 L2 12*44 etc. |

Also in the update, Jonathan Steel submitted a very well formatted message that pointed out that Matthew Ord was missing a time on RDP3 despite making a submission for it. Jonathan found Matthew's submission from 2007 and linked it in his message. Utterly ridiculous.. :P @April: I want to put forward the motion of listing Jonathan Steel as a trusted (yellow checkmark) member. He's been consistent in his PRs and progress. He also clearly pays attention to what goes on around the page. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 01/21/12 at 13:59:58 I'd find that hilarious considering I don't have a yellow check myself, although I do agree that he clearly wants to get involved with this community, which is always nice.

I'm removing it again until that is settled. 2) I'm trying to avoid yellow checks as much as possible after the whole Fenner fiasco -- link me to recent vids and if there are enough, we can add a green tick for him instead :) Also, staff: be on the lookout for a message from me about some policy changes I'm putting in place. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by wimmi on 01/22/12 at 05:38:33 Thanks for the update :) I don't think I can stay ahead of Krystian if he continues playing. His timesheet is really uneven, and his good times are way out of my league :-/ |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TvK on 01/28/12 at 13:11:28 News done (15Jan - 21Jan). I'll do another one as soon as January ends. Also I'll update the awards page later. And #8846 |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 01/28/12 at 13:45:37 TvK is on fire these days. Keep up this great updating! [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 02/01/12 at 07:08:39 Updaters: If you didn't already know, delete Fenner's messages to the Yahoogroups as spam at this point -- there is a "delete as spam" option. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TvK on 02/02/12 at 11:59:46 #8860 @Time Updaters: I am going to write news tomorrow, so please don't update any times before I finished. Thanks. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 02/02/12 at 15:25:13 Stealin' all mah updates, every week. I guess it's worth it if it means you'll write a news update. [smiley=dankk2.gif] -Christophe. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TvK on 02/03/12 at 12:08:27 News is up. EDIT: And awards page updated. Btw I accidentily put the last two subtitles in yellow. I edited it, but it won't change until files are rebuild. I am not able to rebuild files, but it automatically does this when a new update is posted. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 02/05/12 at 06:47:58 Thanks for the update Chris! However, James Mekealian sent in RiR 3lap and BC3 3lap times that clearly used banned strategies (ranked #1 and #2 atm on the site). I'll send him an e-mail about it. -Christophe. Edit: As time updaters, I'm assuming we can delete times. If so, how? Thanks in advance. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 02/05/12 at 07:07:19 Thanks for the info. Edited. You can choose at the main screen in the upper screen between some things, for example "delete times". That's teh option you will choose to delete a wrong time. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 02/08/12 at 07:43:31 I don't think the time format is the problem, it's that you use "KVD" as your abbreviation under the mail, and since your name is a bit more difficult to write/remember then most other names, he's gone mad ;D It was more a joke then serious I guess. Still, if you want to spare us from Chris' wrath, write your full name in your e-mails XD |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 02/22/12 at 09:14:25 Leaving on a ski trip today, so I won't be able to update tomorrow. If any of you want an update, nag Timur van Kessel about it 'cause he's over 2 weeks late for the news. ;) See you guys next week, Christophe. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by jsteel on 02/28/12 at 09:02:15 Hi, I noticed this site isn't updated as often as the others and wondered if you needed a hand. I'm an ex-MKDD updater http://www.mariokart64.com/mkdd/info.php. I don't imagine I'll be retiring from MKSC any time soon; I joined 2 or 3 months ago and have been active since. Let me know if I can help. Jonathan Steel |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 02/28/12 at 09:36:54 I would recommend that. Include Jon into my update day and use me as a part time updater, because I really don't have much motivation to update at the moment... |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by wimmi on 02/28/12 at 09:58:01 Yes, it would be nice to have another updater here :) I thought about asking to become one myself, but after getting ignored in MKW when there was nobody updating ~1-2 years ago, and getting ignored in MK7 recently, I thought it would just be a wasted post :P |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 02/28/12 at 11:36:16 Yeah I'm also a bit busy atm, TvK has 2 updating jobs at the same time(well, that was his choice :-* ), Chris doesn't have that much time and I don't know about shock and El Nino. Guess it wouldn't hurt to have one active times updater. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 02/28/12 at 11:52:49 We all know that I spend almost all my potential updating time bitching to TvK about news updates, and the rest is spent on actual updating (when people let me, that is... ::)). -Christophe. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 02/28/12 at 12:07:30 I'm doing an update now...just saying, not that we both update now and one of us wastes his time ;D |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 02/28/12 at 12:34:58 I have no idea what just happened, I cleared the charts before my update because I saw TvK's update was still not cleared, and after updating the times all AF cuts vanished...either Christophe now really updated simultanoes with me or something else happened ::) And Christophe has now the Site Record of GV2, I think either him or me made a mistake :( Look that happens when you make me mad, anyway @ Christophe if you read this, just resend your old GV2 3lap, somehow it got updates as your flap. Edit10: I found an old 50"35 of you and added it, not sure if it's your newest time, just check it. Edit11: Everyone check your timesets, if there's a mistake just resend the correct time. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 02/28/12 at 15:50:54 No, I didn't do anything. In fact, I was already aware of the charts not being zero'd after the news, but I decided to leave them there until my next update because it's always nice to be able to see cuts after the update imo. My PR is in fact 49"95. I know you wanted to get away with keeping the tie on me, but I like that sub too much to let it go. ;D As far as I can tell that's the only problem with my current timesheet, I'll send it back in (maybe even abuse my powers and do a insta-update... :D). Thanks for the update, I appreciate it (I won't nag you about the charts being zero'd after the update, since I didn't have to prod you for the update this time. :P). In general, I only do updates on Thursdays unless things get out of hand with the other updaters and I happen to have some extra free time, just so you all know. Otherwise my free time goes towards pushing for news. -Christophe. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 03/08/12 at 17:20:34 #8954 A few things to note about this update: - I didn't approve a message by James Mekealian (some times posted weren't PRs, with no indication of which were/weren't). - the update tag was 8943, yet I'm quite sure I left it at 8940 last week. Does anyone have an explanation to this? - a few of Andy's (very) recent times had been added to the site before I got around to updating, and I found no trace of Yahoo Groups messages from him. I was wondering who updated his times in this manner and why. (In my opinion it shouldn't be done, but I'd rather discuss this more with the person in question.) -Christophe. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 03/08/12 at 17:42:08 Oh. I'm the guilty party on that one. I've just been updating my times as soon as I get new PRs so I don't forget them, and so I don't back up the messages like I used to. I didn't think it would be a problem; though I sometimes feel a bit guilty that I don't update the others' times before I update my own. :-[ Oh, and I did do a random update one time to ease my conscience, that's why the tag changed. :P |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 03/18/12 at 16:30:40 #8978 A lot of activity in this time update. 2 new players joined our site! Welcome to "Micheal Michael" (lol), who joined us at #42. (He's PeachKarter on YouTube.) Also, welcome to Frederick Hutchington who joined us at #72, ironically, right below #71 Adam Frederick. It's the Frederick duo of doom! (Well, only to a certain Zack Weber, who's now outside the top 100 again!! ;D ) http://desmond.imageshack.us/Himg404/scaled.php?server=404&filename=zackfail.png&res=medium You need to lose at least 2 AF to get back to the top 100 Zack, but that's assuming our current #100 doesn't keep improving, which I doubt since he just submitted more times this update, and has made an 11 AF cut overall. So it's more like 4 AF of activity is needed from you. :D So yeah, active players included the new entries, James Mekealian, Sebastian Wimmer, Florian Chollet, Michael Vogt, Jonathan Steel, and me. (And both our new entries to the charts did not format their messages correctly at all... 20 mins. of my life spent on this update. xD) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by thewebinator on 03/18/12 at 17:07:09 :( Guess it's time to boot up the old GBA and set some PRs. Can't go around in the "Outside the Top 100 club". I may be pretty bad but that's one distinction I'd rather not have. Hopefully combined rankings just stops updating because as of now my sig says differently. :P EDIT - also remembered MKSC's 80 times on a full timesheet and why AF cuts are so hard to come by...4 AF = 320 place improvements. Sounds like my work is going to be cut out for me. :D |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 03/21/12 at 19:31:02 #8989 Lots of activity, like usual. :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 03/26/12 at 15:25:56 #8995 Nice work by Christophe, he's less than .3 AF points away from passing Timur if I read that chart correctly. :o A new player also joined the site, and Michael Vogt has pretty much cleared a huge AF graveyard, which is impressive work on his part. That's hard to do. (My own last AF gap has been killing me; it was and still is something that feels nearly insurmountable. And Seb really only needs to play 1 course and I have a lot of new work cut out, much less if he goes on a PRing rampage through his retro courses like I think he is pretty capable of doing...) I want a news update. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by El Niño on 03/26/12 at 15:34:25 Thanks Andy! WE ALL WANT A NEWS UPDATE, YOU HEAR!? (Actually, I think it'd be best if we had a news update on exactly April 1st, so we can have POWs, POM and POQ. Also, we should probably hold a POQ poll because of all the activity this quarter.) -Christophe. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 04/05/12 at 06:15:56 #9016 Refreshed the tables, but didn't zero the charts. I assumed that button was to be used at the discretion of the news updaters, particularly after writing the news. Should the button be pressed? Also, is the time updating team going to discuss nominations for the POQ poll, or is TvK just going to set it up sometime? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 04/05/12 at 07:29:26 Good catch, I forgot to zero the tables, did that now. About POQ, normally TvK sets up a poll but he's been slacking the last time in this section so I might just do so in the next days. |

I thought so long as I did frequent updates, my self-time updating would fall under some "fair use" clause... :( [/quote] A few words about this (and I just read the posts in the other thread): 1) I have no problem with someone updating their own times (as long as all times are posted to the Yahoogroups and everything matches), but if you choose to, make sure you update all times that haven't been updated, not just yours. I sent Shock a PM about this, so he knows now. I'm considering this fair warning not just to him, but all times updaters. and 2) If you see someone possibly doing something that is not kosher with the updating system, instead of posting in threads and such, please PM me rather than making a post. I do come in the MKSC forum first thing when I come to the MB, but I do not catch everything, and until Shock made this last post, I had no idea. If I know about it, I can fix it a lot faster than if something is posted about it and people get all pissed off about it. Anyway, this issue *should* be resolved now. Anything else like this, PM me and I'll take care of it. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by MrL1193 on 04/12/12 at 15:56:17 Well, yeah, I don't have a problem with guidelines. But, like Andy said, no one ever seems to care about personal use of the updating system on the MKWii section. Getting to update your own times was pretty much just regarded as a "perk" of being an updater. Even the retired players/updaters who don't update anything except their own times on the rare occasions that they play don't really catch much flack. (It just means a few less messages for the rest of us to deal with. :P) As long as submissions don't sit there for more than a few days, everyone stays happy. So I was just a bit surprised to find out that that's apparently taboo around here. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 04/12/12 at 17:30:41 ^Of course, and I have no issues with updaters updating their own times. (When I was active, I did it.) However, I just ask that any other times in there are updated as well -- if you're already doing it, you might as well do everyone else's, since it doesn't take that much extra time (we aren't the MKW site -- most updates are usually somewhere between 5 and 15 messages). Actually, unless I missed something, this issue hasn't ever come up, and I err on the side of caution with things considering the history that this site has had in terms of updates not being done at all/Fenner/the multiple staff changes over the last few years/things like that. I prefer for staff members' times to be recorded in the Yahoogroups and updated with everyone else's as a just in case thing. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 04/24/12 at 16:16:35 #9043 Times submitted might not have been updated if they were sent long ago, as I'm not sure when the last update and approval of messages was. They get automatically deleted after 14 days. Most of the action was from Sebastian Wimmer and Stephen de Winter. Caught myself once again typing in "Sebastian de Winter" in the parsing screen... ::) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 04/25/12 at 14:59:28 Sorry that I haven't been helping out recently, I just don't find the time, I think I'll propose that we need another news/times updater to help out, at least for a while. I'll say if I know anything new, if you would be willing to do either times/news update you could just post here so we at least know who would do it if we decide to apply another updater. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 04/25/12 at 17:48:10 ^Before I decide whether or not to add anyone else, where is everyone else? Maybe it's time to see who's still interested/whatnot and gauge how many (if any) more people we need. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TvK on 04/25/12 at 21:22:16 I am still here. I also have been pretty busy lately. I think I'll have some time to dosome updating again now, but in 1 month my exams start... And I'll probably won't have a lot of time then.

Basically, I'm still motivated for times updating, but I can't commit to news because I have end of high school exams in a month that I need to study for (and I don't feel like I'd be able to maintain motivation for writing news anyways). -Christophe. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 04/28/12 at 07:22:33 ^Cool :) (Also, I'm not sure how to fix the PMs issue, but Penev/shadow might be able to.) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 05/17/12 at 05:44:56 Hey news people: who wants to do some news? ;) It's been awhile. Also: times people: I had to do a bit of housecleaning with modships on the Yahoogroups to be able to add the new updaters as mods -- please check to make sure you can still approve messages. If you find that your modship has disappeared, PM me with the email you use on the Yahoogroups and I can readd you. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 05/20/12 at 08:08:03 Updated to 9054. Not sure if old messages left unapproved were deleted, but I did find a message from April 30th in the queue, so maybe the system is just lying when it says it will delete messages after 14 days. Anyway, that update included a new player, and it also required that I update hundreds of times. I tried to at least check the ones with yellow highlight to make sure I didn't update something that shouldn't have been updated, but if someone finds a problem please let us know. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 05/20/12 at 08:52:24 ^Thanks for the update Shock :) Anyway, three of the new updaters should be ready to begin updating at this point, so times updates should be more regular at this point. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by wimmi on 05/20/12 at 11:14:39 Did my first update 8-) was only 1 message, which was mine :D, but oh well, just wanted to try it out :) updated to 9055 :P |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by wimmi on 05/27/12 at 22:34:12 Updated to #9063 It just happened for the first time that the parser thought a 3lap time was a flap. I noticed it and changed it, but what should I do if I wouldn't notice it before updating? Is there an easy way of changing it back to the last other time submitted, or would I have to look through the submissions to find the correct time? edit: #9066 |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by jsteel on 06/04/12 at 07:44:17 My first update: 9078. Looks OK! |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 06/04/12 at 08:20:16 Wimmi if you don't mind I'd like to do the news update next sunday :) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by wimmi on 06/05/12 at 00:00:20 Feel free to do so :) If I would have to continue with news updates, I would have only done them once a month to be honest, or maybe every 2 weeks, as there won't be that much to write about as there isn't that much activity in 1 week, I guess. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 06/05/12 at 06:20:50 ^Well, every two weeks seems better to me aswell, but it's also a bit hard to see for weekly awards when you do 2 week updates. In MK64 it's no problem since you have a completely different stats page ;D! |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by wimmi on 06/05/12 at 12:40:14 Oh true. I forgot about the awards. Well do whatever think is best :P |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 06/05/12 at 15:17:44 ^Wimmi, whoever does news picks awards. Don't sweat it too much for having forgotten this time -- just go on ahead and pick a POW, make a new news to announce it and add it to the awards. (PM me if you need to know how to add an award to the awards page.) Great job with the last news btw :D |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 06/15/12 at 08:43:25 I have nothing going on, and I want to try my hand at it, so I got this covered Chris. :) Also updated my own 5th submission in a row... Updated to #9099 If I can PR 6 times in 2 days, you guys probably can too! Let's see some activity! [smiley=engel017.gif] |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by wimmi on 06/15/12 at 09:20:47 I'm checking every morning if there are times to update, but there are so many active updaters now, that I don't have anything to do 8-) About my MKSC activity I can only say that I have lots of other games to play at the moment, so I playing MKSC right now feels just like a waste of time to be honest [smiley=ninja.gif] |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 06/17/12 at 13:23:54 News is up, and it looks like a rainbow currently. (It looked better on preview before posting... [smiley=chairshot.gif]) I'm waiting for someone to rebuild the files after I did some editing again. Also, I updated to #9102 and zeroed the charts, so whoever does the news next, #9103 is where you need to start, and whatever values you find in all the charts can be trusted as accurate representations of point gains and losses since the last news update. I guess that's all. Took less than an hour to do all of that and the awards as well. Not too bad. Edit: Now I'm working on putting the awards on the site based on what I read from the news updates. Should be done shortly... And it's done. I have nothing from April or May to work with, but at least what I found on the site and the POQ from the message boards is updated. Basically, I just did a ton of updating and news and etc. Feels good to be done with it all. :) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by TvK on 06/17/12 at 17:11:39 Shock, is this how it was supposed to look like. (Check main page) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 06/17/12 at 18:22:05 Alex sent me a PM 30 minutes before you posted, so you might have seen it after Alex rebuilt the post, making my edits show. My editing took out all the rainbow-like font and pretty much made everything green, blue, and yellow. Alex also gave me permission to rebuild files, so hopefully this won't be an issue again. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 06/22/12 at 06:18:52 So, only two messages have been sent to the yahoo groups since last Sunday. Are we doing a news write up this week? Also unless some activity happens soon the POW is going to be kinda lame. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 06/24/12 at 06:41:18 Updated to #9111, but Paul Tanney submitted a couple BL times that I didn't catch as being impossible, so it says he has 2 WRs. I sent him an email asking him to correct them as I don't remember his previous BL time. I'll write the news also in about 10 hours or so. I'll do one last time update right before I get started writing it up. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 07/01/12 at 09:43:48 #9125, charts are refreshed and zeroed, news is up, POW has been awarded. Hopefully you guys don't mind being compared to a bunch of caffeinated monkeys and I can keep my job as a news writer. ::) Also, POM and POQ need to be determined eventually, so if Tom or Timur or someone wants to make a thread about POQ now I think that would be a good idea. POM I'm just not sure who to award it to; there are some good, similarly equally impressive performances this month. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 02/09/13 at 12:01:51 This month's news is up. And I gave a POM award for January. And I updated 6 times. And zeroed the charts. For some reason this news gave me a bit of a headache to type up, since someone sent a PR right when I was about to update, and when I updated my CCI time, the parser interpreted it as a flap. I didn't catch it, so when I refreshed the AF I had fallen 2 AF points - my CCI flap ranked 157th. My profile looked a bit... imbalanced. Lol. And it confused me for a couple minutes about what happened. Anyway. It's all done. It would be nice to know if something's happening with the 2 POQs, 4 POMs, and POY awards that we're behind on... |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 02/09/13 at 16:21:06 Oh man, I love my award! I guess I'll have to play a minimal amount in February to get it again! :D -Christophe. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by KVD on 02/11/13 at 04:34:08 Nice update Shock! In light of all the recent WR's I think it would be worth checking again how many WRs Terrence allegedly still holds. Chances are high those constitute real WRs and in my opinion it would be best if all of those were overthrown at some point. Compiling the list of what they are now, would be a renewed starting point for that mission. ;) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 02/15/13 at 19:53:33 Just wanted to update everyone on the POQs/POY awards -- I haven't forgotten to award them, but am still looking at the POQs, especially 4th quarter. I'll look again at these tomorrow -- any PMed suggestions would be appreciated :D |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 02/18/13 at 06:09:42 ^ Final decision on that coming soon? And I've been very busy updating the times this month! 35 messages already in 18 days. For MKSC that's pretty busy! I'm excited to see Mick submitting some strong times in there - I bet once he feels more comfortable with ZZMT he will be able to make a lot of improvements on his course times and pass Seb, given enough time and motivation. :) |

I almost never feel the need to mention the update here since it seems it's pretty rare for anyone besides me to update the times anyway, but I wanted to this time because we have a new player and another sub 3 second RKB1 flap submitted. :P |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 03/19/13 at 18:41:23 Shock, are you sure that your Lakeside Park 3lap time isn't a typo? I found a video of 48"81 but the time on the PP says 48"18. If it isn't a typo, what did you differently to get such a crazy time? o_O |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 03/19/13 at 18:47:08 No, that's not a typo. I set this time in the airport right before boarding to Orlando. ;D So I couldn't get a recording of it since I didn't want to save the ghost to my cartridge. I can get a similar time and record that if you want, I've failed a couple of sub runs recently actually. To answer your question though, I don't think I changed anything, just tighter turns, longer drift boosts, earlier shroom... etc. All added up little by little. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 03/19/13 at 18:51:09 Did you add extra MT's or something? Get perfect waterslides (they actually save like "15 per lap, if you want me to show you examples of them I can)? The best laps I've been able to hit tonight (though I've only played for about 20mins) are laps like a 16"4x opener, which still isn't anywhere near good enough lol. edit: I've also decided to actually maintain the MKSC WR channel, and I'd like your permission to upload your PP WR's (and NSC WR's, etc.) on there. The credit will still be given to you, of course and your YouTube channel name will be in the description. http://www.youtube.com/user/MKSuperCircuit/ |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 03/19/13 at 18:57:05 I edited my above post to answer your question - and I will try eventually to improve my time on this course again so you can have a video. :P And yes you have my permission, thanks for asking and maintaining a channel like this. :) Edit: Fuck, and now there's a page break lolol [smiley=chairshot.gif] Edit again: And a bad page break too since this is the 41st page. xD |

I just watched the GV1 flap vid. Are you sure it's impossible to complete the lap without falling off? What if you shroom earlier so that the shroom runs out just after you land on the road, and then brake? In addition to the Youtube channel, maybe it would also be a good idea to have a SRW page that links to all of the WR videos. |

The problem with shrooming earlier is that it makes you unable to turn tight enough to land back on the road (and if you don't land on the road, it's about "10 slower, oddly enough). You can test it yourself if you want, but I've had no luck with it. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Michael F on 03/19/13 at 19:17:40 What if you shroom where you did, but you turn slightly less, so instead of falling off the side of the road you go backward, then brake as soon as you land on the road, AB-spin, and shroom again? Have you tried that? |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 03/19/13 at 19:32:45 I've been attempting it but had no luck on the Japanese ROM. I did tie the 4"74 though. |

Also it shows how key maintaining speed is at the shroom spot I think. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 04/30/13 at 08:04:19 I am pleased to say that I have updated the first SC times on the site successfully! However, Ethan, for some reason the parser thought your RCI2 flap was an RCI2 course and I didn't catch it, so I don't know what your real RCI2 non-SC course is. I went ahead and just deleted it for now. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 04/30/13 at 15:18:46 http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/6688/e9nglet.jpg 1. Times are assumed to be shortcut, so if you follow non-sc rules make sure you say your time is non-sc! 2. Label shortcut times as flap or total so we don't have to guess! For updaters, be mindful whether a shortcut time is extracted as a flap or total. It's not uncommon to have your flap close to or slightly faster than the total world record until using the best strat. You will see this on places like SG so make sure the box is checked for flaps and unchecked for totals. This will save you from having to go back and fix things. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 04/30/13 at 18:59:45 Submitted Ryou's timesheet that he gave me under the email address: MKSupercircuit@gmail.com I plan on submitting all of the timesheets that the Japanese players give me using this email address. Is this okay? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 04/30/13 at 19:11:30 If they need help understanding how to get their times posted that's fine. They have to want to join though! Although we would like to have complete rankings we just can't go dig up old times and submit without someone's permission. Like everyone else, there should be some proof or videos available as most here are unbeknownst to them to help build credible charts. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 05/01/13 at 14:29:29 Thanks Etch. I assume you added some spaces after his name? Why didn't you add his rCI2 times? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 05/01/13 at 14:37:36 Check those apostrophes, and because that seems too slow like some others. lol Just want to be doubly sure. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 05/01/13 at 14:40:47 Ah right, same as for Xiva over on MKDS. Might as well add them so he appears on the AF chart and correct later if needed, since they aren't going to be any slower. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 05/01/13 at 15:17:37 Those are his RCI2 times lol. I might be able to convince him to at least complete a lapskip run if I get back in touch with him. Edit: Also, we need to get some of the players to submit their times. For instance, Nicola/DarkRoy has some SC times, such as his 12"xx SG SC 3lap. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 05/02/13 at 17:16:42 Did some digging, and I believe I found N.K.'s email address. I emailed him, explaining to him what the PP is, and I asked for his time sheet. Maybe if we're lucky, we will have one of the oldest SC players (the guy was a 2001-2003 racer) on our site. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 05/03/13 at 07:30:32 Updated the next 7 messages. I'll leave it to Hahaae I think to make sure that the times Su submitted didn't contain times only possible on a Japanese cartridge or something. Regardless, other than a slight Choco Island mistake, I got all greens on this update so it should hopefully be accurate. Edit: Also, due to some incomplete timesheets by Hahaae and Su I think I am still currently "champion" on the SC AF, though my PR:SR average is like 64% and my course times are some 8 minutes slower than Su's. ;D ;D ;D |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Jonesy on 05/14/13 at 09:24:28 You should probably edit your news update to reflect that fact that many of the "new" players are actually old players back from the 2003 version of the site. The list of names that Etch has included from that old version of the site is in the topic I created below. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 05/14/13 at 12:07:36 I don't really see an issue with that, they weren't on the site we had before so basically they are "new" entries to the charts, even if they were on the old page already. But I guess I can add a sentence or some more to explain the issue. Edit: Okay, I added an explanation to the news covering that. Should probably be fine now. Cool to see that changes are visible immediately, before we always had to wait for someone to rebuild the files, nice one [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 05/14/13 at 13:34:24 Nice job Timur! Like Mark mentioned, I still have some other profiles to copy over to the new site so expect more shifting in shortcut land. I tried to add the original bosses first but there are a few more lurking in that database. I'll also go back and dole out awards that were never done, talking ancient times. With sporadic activity, bimonthly updates should be sufficient. :) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 05/25/13 at 08:39:03 Just approved a few Yahoo Groups messages, and upon reading Leone's message something bothered me. "All the rest are retro (& in order, duh...), so I'm not gonna waste characters writing 'R's in front of every course name." For us times updaters, this is extremely irritating. The parser does not properly recognize retro tracks without the "R" in front. This is even more of a problem with the Bowser Castle/Rainbow Road tracks where you wind up with two tracks with the same acronym. So yes, please do "waste characters" writing the course acronyms properly. Feel free to resubmit your timesheet properly, because I have no desire to update the one you sent, as it will probably double (or even triple) my updating time and you clearly know better than to not put an "R" in front of retro courses. Also, about this: "This is probably more times than you've received the entire quarter." Not sure if this is serious or if it's intended to be a (bad) joke. :-? Either way, you couldn't be farther from the truth, given that this month is already the most active we've had since June 2011, and we're as active as MKDS so far this month. ;) |

For rGV1 flap, I used the matchup page to check for PR dates and I must have forgotten to look at the year... The stats page for MKSC either doesn't exist or doesn't work with the new database (either way, Timur didn't give me the link for it so I have no idea where to find it) so I had to use matchups for figuring out which PRs were set (still less annoying than re-reading all the Yahoo Groups messages). I'd use orange, but I have no idea what the color code for it is... ::) Edit: done, but it's not appearing on site because I don't have access to rebuilding files. |

It isn't that hard to look up on Google HTML color codes... http://www.computerhope.com/htmcolor.htm ::) (I like that "Shocking Orange" color...) Also, I usually just use <font color=orange> ... </font> for colors on my news updates. Chances are if you type in a standard color in this format, it'll work. You can play around with it a bit.

|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 07/17/13 at 08:30:42 Thanks for the news again (and the POW) Chris! It was kind of unexpected though since we've shifted to monthly news afaik. I still think monthly news is better for MKSC as we don't have a big player base and (at least for me) monthly news is easier to handle and to produce "quality" news. I also went ahead and zero'd the charts. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by KartSeven on 07/17/13 at 10:42:34 I checked some SC charts, and I can notice (at least) 5 impossible times by Brian Rafferty... |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 07/17/13 at 10:51:44 Guess I gave the old database the benefit of the doubt...some of these are pretty bad! [smiley=dead.gif] These are the times I have taken from so far...(highlighted have impossible) Sami Cetin Simon Cheetham Zack Kennedy Archibald Lefevre Michael McKenzie Brian Rafferty Andreas Runnelid Michael Ryan Peter Toch Jason Whalls I rather see full sets than partials so remove offenders completely or just leave the unimpossible times? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 07/17/13 at 11:08:00 I'd say leave the "unimpossible" times, since the SC charts would suffer from the loss of those times and we already have a ton of partial timesheets anyways. |

If it's just a time or two, just remove the impossible times -- if it's more than 5 times on one set, just remove the player. I went through awhile back and removed a bunch of times, so maybe those were missed. |

I know it's better, but I was just motivated to do it haha :D Also, what I find much better to handle is, when we would have a fixed date when news are updated monthly, so everyone could send their times right before that date. So the news updaters don't have to check 100023812912 messages to write something about (at least I find it a bit time consuming). |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mr.Nosey on 08/09/13 at 04:30:12 Hi, I saw that the SC players whose timesheets had been moved over from the old site didn't have any of their non-SC sheets filled in. While I realise it's hard to know whether they've ticked or not, I'm sure there are some times which are obviously fine and could be put in. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 08/24/13 at 07:28:26 It's better to keep site rules charts accurate as possible, you also can't know if banned routes/shrooms were used. Also updated the times, everything looked okay except Weatherton's BC3, RiR, DP1 flap, and DP3. I suggest reading over this before labeling things non-sc :P http://www.mariokart64.com/mksc/rules.php |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 08/24/13 at 10:29:51 Well, there are some things that I feel should be added at least, such as RaR 3lap/1lap, and probably RRR 5lap/1lap, as it's easy to tell if that one has used SC. |

^ :) Also when the times were moved over, some of the older players popped up briefly and said hi, does anyone have up to date contact information to ask for more detail and ask them if they'd like to fill out their non-sc timesheet? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 08/24/13 at 12:03:41 Their times have been available since May here... I think it would be ugly to have gigantic sheets with just a few records filled in. The original purpose was to just integrate the old site into the shortcut rankings. Unless there's a huge demand, I'm not taking this upon myself for the sake of pseudo-completeness. I'm also not stupid, this will help/hurt some players rankings even if it's just a few tracks. That especially goes for world records, it's a real shame more of them are not available and doesn't help our credibility. I know April was okay with this but it merits some more discussion. I really feel people should have to submit their own non-sc records so by all means ask them if they are interested. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Zwiebel on 08/24/13 at 12:20:54 I agree with Etch, if people want they can submit their non sc-times themselves, there's no real reason for us to dig through everything and try to figure which time is sc/not sc etc, it would just be so time consuming and the only thing we would get from it is a few half-assed timesheets that aren't even half completed. If people want to be on the non-sc rankings as well they will come and do it themselves, if they don't want to then it's their own choice. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Mr.Nosey on 08/24/13 at 13:05:46 Yeah okay... :/ I personally like the idea of having as many times entered as possible, and the fact that so many partially filled timesheets exist means that I sort of feel immune to the uneasiness that seeing a partially filled timesheet gives. But yeah, I see your point that this is a different case because we really can't be sure on so many of them. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 08/24/13 at 15:23:39 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/Mario_Kart_Super_Circuit/message/9773 That flap can't possibly be non-sc. Why are there are so many typos and unlabeled times in this game... |

I did omit one submission... http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Mario_Kart_Super_Circuit/conversations/messages/9785 I'll bring this up again, how important is it to you guys to have proof of top shortcut times?

Brings 6 WR's, all flap ties. -Tatsuya joins! He will be the 3rd Japanese player with a full set! Also brings 1 WR, flap tie. RP: 51"83 / 16"43 - Sent as non-sc but I don't think this conforms to site rules. SGB: 21"90 / 16"43 - Sent as sc so my guess is typo on the flap? |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Nivekyoshi on 12/13/13 at 14:38:36 Thanks for updating. Talking about confusion between sc and no sc time, there is still a problem with Ethan's time there: http://www.mariokart64.com/mksc/coursen.php?cid=35 |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 12/13/13 at 14:52:10 Fixed! Briefly looked over rest of non-sc records, all is well now. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 01/03/14 at 20:43:51 I updated some more times. Some things to note: 1) Fenner sent a long-ass message for wanting to be back. Still in pending, but I'm gonna assume that's gonna be another reject for now. 2) Krystian Wieczorek tried to join. I didn't realize it was him at first and approved the message. It's message number 9974. I've updated to 9973. I can't remember right, but this guy I thought cheated in the past, so not updating that message for now. 3) I deleted a player by the name of Thomas Haughland. Ethan's told me over Skype that he's been caught cheating in MKWii and that his MKSC times were set on an emulator. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 01/04/14 at 04:59:43 Krystian Wieczorek is a bit suspicious (in my eyes at least) but he hasn't been removed from any of the sites as far as I know. We should probably try to get in touch with him and see if he can provide some proof. As usual, thanks for updating, but hopefully you haven't updated any 2014 PRs yet. I haven't had time to write news yet and won't be able to for the next few days either, so if you could cover December news for me that'd be great. |

Per this post in the related MK64 thread on him, I contacted Krystian Wieczorek on Facebook asking for proof of some questionable times. He has posted on Facebook multiple times but never got back to me, so I'm removing him. Any questions, comments or hate speeches can be directed at me via PM.[/quote] Krystian has been removed from the MKSC site in July 2012. He was suspected for sending in faked times to the MK64 PP, and when he was looked into here, we found out that he had an amount of impossible times on his timesheet. April contacted him, but he never responded and thus was removed from the site. I don't know if he's still around on the MK64 site. I do know that he's still on a couple of other sites (like MKDS) where he never reached a rank high enough to be considered suspicious. I don't think it's a good idea to let him back on the site again, but ofcourse, April should have the final say about this. EDIT: He's not on the MK64 site anymore either, so I guess he got removed there as well. |

1) lol. Yea, you can reject that one. That ship sailed a long, long time ago :) 2) I removed him awhile back -- I think he may be on the SMK site, but I removed him here, and he was removed from the MK64 site not too long after. 3) Cool. Works for me. If there is any kind of backlash on that, send them to me and I'll work it out. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 01/08/14 at 18:00:52 Updated times sent through the end of 2013, and news is up! I'm not going to update any more times for a couple days and won't reset the tables in case I screwed something on the charts and/or the news update, so hopefully that'll be more easily fixable. If someone else wants to or feels motivation to update times, note that the times are not organized chronologically on the YahooGroups. The update tag right now is rather useless. Once the January 1-5 messages are updated though, order should be restored. :-/ |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Nivekyoshi on 01/09/14 at 02:52:58 Thanks for updating Andy. Too bad the times are not organized chronologically, I guess it explains why my RMC3 times have been changed for an older time. Well, I just need to send them back so it is not really important. I will check if this happened also on others tracks. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 01/09/14 at 09:48:25 ^Yea. I'll go through when I get back to Mom's and try to fix it, but if anyone sees old times where there shouldn't be, just resubmit the correct times and I can fix it. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 01/09/14 at 18:21:38 Updated more times, but the parser screwed up a bit. Kevin, right now you have the CL 3lap and CCI 3lap non-SC "record" - could you resend some times? Also, could you send in times with the preface "non-SC" not "No SC"? That was a primary cause for this mess up, along with my failing to check the boxes and everything carefully... |
|

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 01/26/14 at 14:16:57 Updating times again as I post this. http://s22.postimg.org/4ok1qqk5t/krystian_message.png Honestly, I am comfortable letting Krystian join again as long as he provides some evidence for his times and doesn't send in any of those "impossible times" again. Shall I reply with the nod? I'm thinking it would be a good idea to ask for a video of any time inside the top 30, at least for a while, if he's let back on. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 01/27/14 at 16:49:54 He's claimed impossible times like Fenner. Making any exceptions is beyond hypocritical at this point. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 01/27/14 at 18:07:19 Point taken, but as far as I know Krystian has only cheated once, whereas Fenner cheated multiple times on multiple sites and didn't adhere very well to his agreement about being let on (streaming often and making videos for everything). What is "beyond hypocritical" anyway? Supercritical? ::) |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 01/27/14 at 18:20:07 I don't think that comparisons to Fenner's case can/should be made, nor do I think anyone here needs reminders as to why his case makes for a poor reference point. On the other hand, I don't think that because we have had a Fenner case we should become strict to the point of not giving someone like Krystian a second chance. Given the small number of active players, we can easily give him a second chance in our community while keeping an eye on his progress. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 01/27/14 at 18:51:45 It's not the first time, he pulled a similar stunt in mk64 land and was uncooperative. Beyond as in this is the nth time we have seen moderators attempt to hand out free passes. I realize not all cases are black and white but it doesn't do the site any good allowing people who don't care about the accuracy or validity of their own times. Picking and choosing how rules get enforced is how messes like these started. Hasn't this board provided enough examples of how this ultimately backfires? If he didn't make up shit to begin with we wouldn't be having this discussion. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Detective Spril on 01/28/14 at 05:39:05 I banned him because he did not provide proof when I asked for it. I can see the comparisons to Fenner -- I would not be comfortable allowing Krystian back when I wouldn't allow Fenner (or any other known cheater) back. I stay consistent. Basically, if you care about being on the site, don't submit impossible times/don't cheat/don't do stupid shit that you know will get you banned. I think as site staff, everyone knows the difference between "oh shit, a typo, let's PM the person and fix it" and "this doesn't sound legit", and I don't think exceptions should be made. Also, in Krystian's case, he also did it with MK64 -- not sure about any of the other sites, but he was banned from MK64 for the same thing. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Nivekyoshi on 01/28/14 at 08:34:58 And he will probably be banned from the SMK site when they will understand this player can not be trusted. :-* :-* |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 01/29/14 at 14:31:06 Updated some times. Please indicate in the message body (ahem, Daniel Pabst and Nicola *cough*), that the times you are submitting are non-SC.

This update only covered PRs submitted in January. Also, there were a number of complications that made the news writing process quite difficult this time around. You must not have have made an AF cut this month, otherwise I would have noticed. I will edit the news tomorrow to include your activity. I apologize for not including you the first time around. |

I don't see why this is odd. SC means anything goes, and without any information provided by the submitter as to how they got their times, we cannot assume that they abided by all the non-SC rules.

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 06/02/14 at 03:44:07 No, E-Mail is fine. There's one thing you need to take care of though: mark your times as SC or Non-SC.

Try to send them again, I'll see if they are coming through ;). |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Glozboy on 02/11/15 at 01:25:21 My submission from January 16th (as well as my RMC3 flap which was put in the wrong bit) was never updated, although they aren't on Chris's list. I've re-sent them now |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 02/11/15 at 08:18:35 News is up. "was able to hit new world records" is a mistake. It should mean "Ethan McCormac was able to hit new world records" I can't edit somehow.. something is missing. Sorry for that. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 02/11/15 at 10:48:46 Not your fault Chris, others seem to be more interested with editing posts than updating times. You do too much as it is, I rather have you karting! Re-re-sent* |

Hi there, me again. I've finally got access to my GBA and the time is 28"81. I'm not really sure what to make of that to be honest - it's an extremely good time even by SC standards and it seems way too good compared to my other times! Unfortunately I can't remember what strat I used (I did most of my runs years ago), and you can't view replays for the retro tracks, but is it possible that there's some sort of glitch that isn't even allowed in SC that I might have used? Either way it looks like I need to redo this track on non-SC at least. |

Nothing is banned in the SC category. Essentially, you are looping around the finish line by turning immediately to your right. Who the fuck made this, the banned line is fucking orange not red!

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Lafungo on 03/30/15 at 16:24:39 You say that your course time is in fact 28"81, but what about your lap? A 7"74 doesn't quite measure up to your 28"81... |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by .Hahaae on 03/30/15 at 22:08:11 For the record, the only reason it's ranked sort of high on SC is because nobody plays SC. A strong SC run is 7-8 seconds. Sounds like you might have just skipped around the start and got some random SC PR. |

Right, yeah. So my best lap is 3"45, but when I went through my times and submitted them, I saw that one and thought it looked like it was clearly SC so I quickly did another run and got 7"74. The 28"81 3lap time wasn't immediately obviously SC to my uninitiated eyes, although in hindsight I should've realised that an SC lap might mean the 3lap time was SC too. ...Basically I've got in a bit of a mess here. |

You may want to try keeping a Google Doc spreadsheet of your PRs, so you don't get them mixed up (here's an example of how I set mine up, if you're wondering why it helps: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nmoGqJ4ND0hVjx3pi_Q-IgWt8gBMaW25gYsctrLVgOg/edit?usp=sharing) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by BSMKDS on 04/04/15 at 20:52:02 on CCI in of my runs i did a few weeks ago, where the first shroom spot is, directly right next to the gap on either the left or right of it, i jumped the wall in one of my prs, is this allowed?, i did this by complete accident btw. edit: it was on the 3lap, but i cant remember which pr it was, but i have since demolished the 3lap today without doing this. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 04/04/15 at 21:13:52 Using a mushroom to cross the deep water and go through the gap right before the first shroom in the "WR strat" run is not allowed (non-SC mode, of course): http://wrvids.com/Mario%20Kart/MKSC/MKSC%20Maps/Rules/cci.png (Notice the little crossed-out mushroom) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Shock on 04/17/15 at 17:27:50 Wrote the news because Lafungo.exe has crashed and has been down for weeks and is unresponsive, and I did a times update. Ben, when I updated the times, I got a couple messages saying something was slower - could you check your timesheet, find the errors and lack of updating what you were trying to update, and send a message to the Yahoo Groups? Thanks. I apologize for my mistakes, which are almost certainly in there. I rushed, and I'm tired. |

Woops, I didn't mean it that way man, sorry. I thought I was the one who had screwed up updating your times - I didn't check to see what course/flap had been changed. If I had bothered to check that, I wouldn't have said anything. And seriously, don't worry, like Ethan said pretty much everybody has done this at some time. It's a rather obscure rule. Keep on PRing, I'm loving your progress. [smiley=thumbsup.gif] |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 05/01/15 at 10:46:31 fyi - Any time someone submits slow shortcut laps on tracks with full skips, there's a good chance it gets picked up as a total so those always have be manually checked. As for the secret updater, I sure as shit know who it isn't... ::) |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by SpinyPlate on 05/03/15 at 07:55:42 Non-SC: RKB1: 47"58 / 7"07 SC: RKB1: 28"81 / 3"45 There we go, that finally sorts that out! The non-sc times were just a quick run...the course time in particular is terrible! But they should still replace my current non-sc times because these are actually accurate. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Etch on 06/04/15 at 11:23:40 I fixed your times and Ben's CCI records. You guys might want to consider allowing messages to the yahoo group to be unmoderated so submissions don't get rejected for pending too long. I'm guessing some already have since it's almost been 3 weeks now. For as little activity as there is, it's a lot less work to tweak messages after the fact than require players to resubmit. |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 07/05/15 at 03:16:32 Hey guys, as no one of us (neither Lafungo, Andy or I) does have enough time to write news, I decided to do a big news update at the end of july. Expect a times update this evening, it's been a while... EDIT: Okay sorry, the update needs to be delayed, I first need the sign in data again. Using another PC now and I don't have the data anymore :-/ |

Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Glozboy on 07/17/15 at 01:05:01 I noticed there's a weird gap in the updates. My submission from July 10th has just been applied, but my email from July 3rd (#10512) was missed out. Just thought I'd flag it up. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Chris on 07/17/15 at 01:38:10 Sorry, could've been my mistake. As I didn't update because I thought Lafungo would write news I left it alone, I will do it. Also, I will write a big summary of June/July at the end of July. |
|
Title: Re: The Official Times Update Thread Post by Glozboy on 07/17/15 at 02:22:31 Thanks for sorting that out Chris :) Looking forward to that big news update in a few weeks' time! |
