^Those PRs make you the newest Myth A player, congratz Smiley It's been cool seeing your Titans disappear and turn into GODs; now you have 12 GODs and only 6 Titans! MCR 3lap will be Myth #27, and if you played WS you could get to 29 total. Then you'll need DDJ 3lap and both DKMs Lips Sealed Awesome progress though, can't wait to see the MCR flap GOD!

I'm now trying to get my MB 3lap down to Titan C, mainly because I realized I can gain .1 on laps 2 and 3 in my PR. The opener is still my best split, because it was and still is very strong. I've now driven a few low 26.3 2-shroomers, and maybe a 26.2 but I don't remember. My last lap split is now 26.870, over .1 better than my PR's lap 3. So far I've driven three more 1:20s: two 1:20.9s and a 1:20.8. I think the latter had a missed MT though, so a Titan C is there Smiley Playing is more fun and easier now because I have nothing to lose, because I need two good last laps to PR. I'm never nervous because I know I need to drive well and catch up, and I've also gotten better at passing the truck at the start of lap 3. I definitely can reach Titan C, and I'm still trying the flap when I mess up the first lap. A Titan+ is possible, but it would take a really good lap Undecided

EDIT: YES YES YES YES YESSSSSSS!!!!!!

MB: 26.191 (Titan+, ~#70) Shocked

After messing up 3laps for an hour, I started trying flaps when I messed up openers. I hit a few high 26.2s and then BAM! This lap was very tight the whole time, and feels pretty maxed too. I don't know if I can lower this any more, but I am wondering what font color I would use for a Myth time Roll Eyes  I'm still going for the Titan C 3lap, all I got today was a 1:21.03 with two missed MTs. If I'm right, this gets me to Expert C overall. Still 6 courses left Smiley

EDIT2: The flap is a USA #10 Smiley

Gawd, haven't been playing much. My times are still so far away from the top times and yet I dont feel like it's gonna be easy to beat them. Also idk if I have the motivation to play the game that much to become near good.

Yes still no A-Tech, so I have an old MKDD GOD without new strategies, the way it was intended Smiley  The old GODs in SMK are much easier (I have over 25/40), but very inconsistent compared to today's standards. The MKDD ones are still pretty consistent, which makes them feel even more meaningful Smiley

And now last night's 3 am PR...

MB: 1:20.672 (Titan C, ~#85)

All 3 laps in this PR were better than the ones in my previous PR Shocked  After a while I started hitting 27.3 openers somewhat often, and this race had a 27.34. My new best split is 27.299, although I could probably do a mid 27.2 if I really tried. Lap 2 was 26.40, which is again pretty good but a small SSMT mistake with the wall on the bridge lost some time. I was a bit nervous starting lap 3 and had a very shaky transition from the first to the second tunnel, but I finished strong and got all the SSMTs for a nice 26.93 0-shroomer Smiley  Overall it was a very good race, no missed MTs and no big mistakes. I definitely did not expect to get Titan C by this much, and I hope I can make another cut like this on the flap...

LC: 1:21.180
PB: 1:13.635/ 23.486
BP: 1:08.108

Minor Mushroom Cup Improvements. Got a headache think Ima stop playing for now

EDIT:

BP: 1:08.052/ 8.996

Got the flap sub but the 3lap sub really doesn't wanna come

EDIT2:

LC: 1:20.845

pretty pleased I finally got that sub

EDIT3:

LC Flap: 25.820

very satisfied with that flap, finally subbed that too.

I think I can get a 1:19 on LC with a good lap, but all in all the mushroom cup is starting to look good.

^Wow, 4 more Experts! Just keep playing and you can get most of them pretty soon. I remember when I was at your level on MB I still didn't really know what I was doing. If you spend time with the course and really learn the strat, you will definitely surprise yourself Wink I also remember my sub 2:10 on WC, I had like 4 low 2:10s and then I hit a high 2:08. If you're not using L-Tech there, than you can lower your times much more. Air MTs also help, but take a bit of time to learn.

I guess all I needed was a piece of duct tape and 15 minutes...

WC: 2:04.077 and 1:01.612 (Hero C, ~#125 and Hero C, ~#135)

I tried fixing the L button with duct tape and it worked Cheesy  I then went to WC to see if I could still L-Tech, but then I realized how crappy my old PRs were. 15 minutes later, I drove a 2:04.9 with a 1:02.1 1-shroomer Cool  I then started trying for a clean flap, and a long two hours and many tiny cuts later I finally finished my first flap without missed MTs, and it is still my PR. It shouldn't be too hard to beat, but a Hero B sounds tough. The 2lap was just a flap attempt with a very good opener (1:02.3, WTF?), and a late missed MT was the only reason lap 2 wasn't a new flap PR. I will definitely try for the sub, hopefully it won't take that long. The opener was amazing though Lips Sealed  Also, if you remove all my one-try times, my ARR is now Hero B Shocked  Getting 32/32 Heroes will be a good challenge, although one I know I can do.

I read up on all the top strategies and looked at many videos. I know how to prepare MTs in the air and land earlier, how to L-Tech and even a little A-Tech for straights.

BP Flap: 8.952

Improved that by a little more after trying for like 1-2 hours...SO close to the Exp A Standard

YC Flap: 35.018

Just a random PR I got, I tried subbing a few times after for the Exp Standard, but I didn't get it and after all those hours of playing my hands were just too sore to continue...lol

Oh well looking forward to the update!

kuigi: not bad, but your BP Flap is particularly good considering your current level. I wouldn't be surprised if you're able to pass me up in the near future if you continue looking to improve your game, much like Andrew K exploded once he reached his first Hero time.

YC: 1'47"449 > 1'46"406 lot's of mistakes, would like the hero standard.
YC: 34"495 > 34"125 this flap was tougher than i thought to bring down. The sub is definetely on my list here.

^I remember getting stuck around the same area on the flap, but I found a way through and eventually ended up at my current 33.51. The 3lap was the other way around for me, had the most trouble right before reaching Hero. I didn't use the no-shroom SC though, maybe that's why I had trouble in the mid 1:45 range. Fun course though, I really enjoyed playing it Smiley

Finishing up the WC detour...

WC: 2:03.700 and 1:01.143 (Hero B, ~#115 and Hero A, ~#110)

Again, the 2lap was a flap attempt with a good opener. After seeing a best split 1:02.06, I made sure to finish the 2-shroomer and got a nice 1:01.64 Cheesy I was very lucky to get these two laps together, definitely happy with this. I later started to think I might have a shot at a Hero B flap, and after reaching a mid 1:01.5 PR I somehow hit this crazy Hero A Shocked  It even had a missed MT, but I won't try to beat it because all the tricky but crucial spots went perfectly, which practically never happens. I could also add 1 more MT at the very start, so all in all I easily have potential for Titan. I'll get it later though, now I'm moving back to DDD for a bit. I might also try MCR, my times there suck Tongue  I'm done with MB though, my flap is really maxed already and would take ages to beat.

MCT: 1:43.821

Quickly improved that (still) horrible time. Don't like that track.

EDIT2:
Improved MCT Flap to 33.869

EDIT3:
DDJ Flap: 36.670

Probably my most hated Track

EDIT4:

I don't know but it works like this: When you have both 50 and 60hz times you always have to tell what hertz the pr's are Smiley (and it's not this case but sending 50 and 60hz pr's in the same message isn't possible either)..

yeah well when I first started TTing I didn't really pay attention to what Hz I was playing in. If it helps you can delete my 50hz times if possible, since they suck anyways and they're kind of annoying. If not, I'll just always write 60hz in my emails from now on.

Thanks anyway^^

^I got stuck in the 8.86x range the last time I played BP, it seriously took me like 3 hours to to go from 8.861 to my current 8.858 PR. Getting from the low 8.9s to the 8.86x area didn't take too long, it was just those last few thousandths that killed me. Good luck with the Hero there, your first one is always a great feeling Cheesy

My old MCR PRs were even worse than I thought, both fell in like 15 minutes. I'll post them here once I polish them some more. They will be huge cuts, but all I will say for now is that I will need red font Smiley
