Mario Kart MB - Three Stars

Stefan van Dijke King Offline missed 7502 mts Zoetermeer Gender:	Re: Three Stars Reply #50 - 11/16/04 at 10:51:37 And one of those cups, lightning or Special heve a KB. I think that is the most important track. I always played 3 sc laps and two laps to gather coins. And since coins don't matter and consistansy does, that might be the problem I had to get 3star rank.

So if you want to discover the factors that are requeired for 3star you realy have to play lightning or special to find out. btw what are you ranks termo?

Oh... i've won most cups only once (after buying MKSC)... so i have a lot of E Wink

Only today i've played the two Mushroom cups with the 3 star goal... and it's funny... but i 'm not expert of many tracks.

Extra-Lightning 150cc is really the most difficult !

I tried a lot Extra-Mushroom 150cc to see the limits of ***, even with the worst possible courses ! Grin

At one Cup, I reached *** with only 36 coins ! At another Cup, I reached *** too, with more than 100 coins ... but 00 at GV1 ! Grin

And even with some ugly times and less than 90 coins, I continued to have *** ! ???

I have to go very, very fast in 2 first laps to avoid this red ! Under 17" for 1st lap (my average is 16"50) and a 2nd lap under 16"50, and with that it's really easier to avoid the red !

It's the only Cup where I'm still not sure coins don't matter ! I reached *** 8 times, but never with less than 130 coins ! About brake, it would be surprising you lost a rating cos of 3 brakes only ! But maybe you have to reach sub 1'24" !

I think my worst time at CI2 - with *** - is now 1'06"3x ! Maybe I did a 1'24"xx once at MC3, but never 1'25"xx with *** at the end ! Undecided

Maybe you have to still improve MC3 !

And I'm angry, the smallest number of coins with *** are for me ... 122 !! Impossible to reach *** with less than 120 coins ! Tongue

What a so horrible Cup ! At Extra-Mushroom 150cc, I reached *** with only 36 coins ! Grin

Always 2 stars (in this last Cup) ?

For me, 2 interesting Cups yesterday !

_ 1'31, 1'21, 0'48, 1'03, 134 coins : ** !
_ 1'32, 1'19, 0'49, 1'02, 143 coins : *** !!

At 1st Cup, I did some mistakes at MC3, a little much on the sand (and a 4th lap at 17"25 and with a shroom !!) !
At 2nd Cup, only 1 mistake at BC2's last lap : I fall in the lava !
