Opinion on current rules.
04/11/06 at 16:14:23
 
I think that the new site is great but was wondering what everyones opinions are on the rules. I think allowing any time with any sc should be allowed and just ban Ticking and Lakitu usage. But this is how I feel early on, plus a game that is so glitchy maybe it would be better to broaden the rules.

i.e. ribbon road - allow the s.c. since we allow all the s.c. in rainbow road. but whatever the majority thinks is cool. im just glad their is a site and will obey the rules to its changed! Cool

well there will be sc charts aswell later on (i think?)
so it'd be setup like mk64 with both nonsc and sc charts

as for RR i don't think that the jumps and stuff should be allowed to the effect that they are... IMO we should have to go around for the most part and only use the jumps to cut little corners

the thing with s.c in mksc is that their are so many and if this site grows i can assure anyone that a lot of ppl willnt know what is and isnt a sc. and if mksc is to branch off into sub records they could just have glitch records which would be the fastest time possible using any method. (good idea?)

like i said i believe they are gonna add sc charts which will allow anything to get the fastest times... IE ticking and glitches etc (if i understand that correctly... atleast they should)

What I meant was the mksc should have 2 lists. the official Fastest time using all S.C possible and than a branch off allowing ticking/lakitu (glitch records). does that make sense now?  Cool

I agree with that idea about 3 separate charts for non-shortcut, shortcut, and glitch times. That way, the playing field is fair for players of all different ranges of knowledge of the game.

That sounds good. B/c some of the SR are pretty crazy imo and I think a few are S.C.

I agree Vince.
I like ticking tech, but it's better, for now, to have only one chart.
About RR, i'm not able to do the Hirano strat, but it's clear that RR is designed to drive "free style" (no barrier but bumping border everywhere).

Edit:
About RiR it's not a big difference in terms of gameplay and so should no matter everyone whether is allowed or forbidden. The most important thing is that the rule is very clear.

IMO the problem exists in circuits with water, where is very difficult to define the shortest allowed path.

The point has been made time and time again.. this site is predominantly being made for NON SC.

NON SC is this because it is about driving around a course without driving into walls/trees etc.

Someone said as this site grows people wont know whats sc and whats non-sc.
Thats why there is a rules page.

RRd is nothing like RiRd - one has walls your jumping over (by definition SC), the other has no walls on the whole course.

And as luca said.. splitting the site three ways? its bad enough trying to work out how we're going to do the sc part. Which might I add will be alot further down the track than anyone seems to be conceiving.

Imagine the submissions:
SC - blah blah blah
NON SC - Blah blah blah
Ticking and lakitu - blah blah

The rules could be made in anyway to suit different types of players. And players have been playing by their own moral code as to whats allowed and not for the last few years. Yes people are going to have to change and adapt.

My thoughts are this, its easier for players who can tick etc to not tick and drive "more perfectly" in a more traditional manner than for those players who play smk and the other games to master ticking as a legitimate form of driving.

The method of driving without ticking be included therefore will appeal to a wider audience and will grow the site. With more support then maybe we can review the types of charts we have. I'm thinking a year of normal competition before we get to that stage.

Also think about how your going to feesibly do it.. at the moment I have two carts, one for non-sc and one for all sc's (ticking and lakitu) do you expect people to buy a third cart?

Rant over. just think its probably better time spent figuring out how we can sort out KB1 (or agree on it).

Focusing for the present on nonSC karting makes sense to me, as a means to grow this site.

In the long run, if there were substantial numbers of contributors, it would make sense to me to have the 3 categories.

That's my humble opinion   Cheesy
