I know that runs played on the Wii U VC is not allowed on the site, because the Wii U VC has a save state feature. Is it possible to allow times if video proof is provided, as long as the video shows the run as it was raced (i.e. not a replay)? In this case we can know if the save state feature is used.

It's far too easy to forget what it's like to be a kid. But one secret to happiness is to be able to pick out links to our childhood in the mundanities of adult life. That's why I love Mario Kart. Whether I'm imagining wading through frosting in Sweet Sweet Canyon to take a bite of that giant donut, or picturing myself, shrunken down, making my way through Waluigi's pinball machine, there's something rejuvenating about the game that provides a nice reminiscence of the halcyon days gone by.

Is Daniel Lopez's full name really made of "Lopez" twice ? It would be the first time I'd see this on a Spanish name. They always have two names, the father's and the mother's, a bit like "Raul Gonzalez Blanco" for example, but "Lopez Lopez" is weird, lol.

The feeling of being a world champion is intoxicating, and I didn't want to ever not be the world champion again. Then I realized it didn't matter that much since I had nothing more to prove and achieved my most important goal(s).

A live stream showing you playing a live run holding the pad would probably be the level you need to go to. It would be way easier to get a snes and smk on ebay, I would recommend that. Plus i always found the snes better for precision than any VC release titles, just being used to the pad plus the type of TV you are using with it / lag on retro games. If anyone has any comments to add please do. For now we are keeping it to snes only there.

Allowing WiiU VC will just open a can of worms. @ Mario, well Lopez is a common name. Stating the obvious here, but perhaps dad and mom happened to have the same name? Worth clarifying though yes.

He is Lopez Lopez, it is correct

Ive been friends with him for some time. I remember a kid in a Turkish language school i went to when i was young who had Hassan Hassan as his first and last name. No middle name.

It's actually not that rare, especially with a common last name.

Yep it's one of the most common Spanish names but I thought people would not put it twice when both parents have the same name. Thanks for the clarification.

Isn't there a Michael Michael on one of the Kart sites?

...But personally, I'm more curious about Lara Gonzalez Perez myself Smiley

I just read a roster of CDM players (since it's starting next week) and it looks like a few of our Spanish amigos (and amigas) are going to be there, including Daniel and Lara. A hot señorita will be welcome, I'm sure Cheesy

Is Team Spain going to rise as a power in SMK, as they have in the more recent Kart games?

She is Daniel's gf Nick... hence why they are travelling together and competing. He is a strong opponent on SNESOT so will be a great racer there. It is wonderful that CDM has a lot of new players this year plus more from Spain. Anyway please write any CDM related questions in the CDM topic. Cheers.

Nick, the update was in process, you have to allow some time for it to be finalised. All corrected now. James and I had e-mailed this week already regarding his track typo. Thanks.

Impressive month by Aron who gets ALL four POW awards + obviously POM one.

I would be highly surprised if a POQ + POY bundle doesn't come to reward him in the end.
