Nice times everyone. Smiley Math, nice WC 2lap, I won't be getting near that any time soon I don't think.  I haven't played the game in about a week though, I've been away.  I'll hopefully get back to playing again soon.

Crap...my controller started to die 10 minutes ago Sad I think it's the R button, 1 out of every 4 or 5 slides abruptly cuts off. This has already happened once, so now both of the rubber springs inside the controller are broken. The last time I opened the controller to fix L it looked like the piece was braking, so now it's officially dead. I should be able to fix it the same way as L, will do the surgery tomorrow...

haha dude the same thing happened to me the other week, and my other controller is already starting to die from all the R-tech I've been doing. I just borrowed a friends yesterday lol hes not getting it back. As a mkdd player you're gonna have to get used to blowing through controllers.  Tongue

I've been using the same controller since I started this game. The rubber on the control stick is coming off, but other than that it's still flawless.

I've heard that official nintendo controllers are really tough (Chris/Ryan?), but that 3rd party ones are the ones that always break. Mine's a gamestop chameleon, it's pretty good but I guess I've reached its limit because L and now R rely on duct tape to work Grin I remember when I bought it last Christmas, I asked the gamestop guy for a gamecube controller and he pulls this crappy micro wireless thing off the shelf Smiley I had to go back to get my current one, but it was a half hour spent very well as I've seen a similar crappy one at my friend's house, the stick broke off so I had to play with the tiny metal inner piece which felt like a nail Tongue

^Hahahaha. Dude. Never use a 3rd party controller. 3rd party can be decent for things like memory card and such (though they're often more likely to corrupt), but controllers should always be 1st party. You should definitely get an official controller, yeah.

I don't feel like I am very hard on my controller at all when playing mkdd, but if people actually do break their controllers, then maybe I should stop using my smash controller for it (smash is hard on it already and I don't want to lose it too soon Sad)

^I probably should, I tried to fix R like L and did the exact same thing, except L worked perfectly but R won't even trigger Angry I taped it exactly like L, but when I push it down it feels much different and doesn't register. I kept trying to fix it but got bored and resorted to MKW where I got a blister from the stupid wheel, thank god it won't affect MKDD playing. I suck at MKW, so its fun because I don't care if I mess up or whatever Smiley

WC 2lap 1'58"313.  59.7, 58.5.  This was pretty decent.  Sub 1'58 should be possible though.  My flap can be improved now too, the second lap was shit.

WC Flap 58"357 GOD#13

this run was honestly so bad  Undecided missed MT, and two insanely wide turns..without those mistakes, this could have been sub 58, because the r-tech in the spiral was just beautiful

Damn dude, time to race for the first sub I think  Wink

I just failed the 2lap sub: WC 2lap 1'58"062.  Messed up the final r-tech (on the little mini spiral) otherwise a fairly clean run.  laps were 59.5 58.5 GOD#14 though

EDIT: Flap 58"234 Smiley

Hey guys, just 2 small prs here, but both are enough to make me tie Kouider for #1 60Hz.

MB 25'787
Muc 31'024

Both are good, but improvable. I'll see if I can hopefully break this tie tonight.  Smiley

Go for MCT sub Shocked Great job on reaching #1 for the first time ever, now it's time to break away from everyone else. Can't wait to see how far you get Wink Also maybe it's just me but I can't find your MCT 3lap WR on youtube. Really want to see it because I'm playing there now, also do you have the above PRs on tape?

I won't be able to play again until I can persuade my mom to take me to get another controller, which could be hard because school starts monday. I still have to read a total of 790 pages over 3 books, this weekend will suck Sad I get my laptop monday though, first step in making vids Smiley

^ :'( why did you break this old WR D:

Nah jk congratz! Was about time to see you finally on the TOP spot in 60hz Cool!

As for me... I started playing a few runs but oh man! Apart from that PB runs a few weeks ago I haven't played seriously in months!

I started with LC, but quickly went to MCT, where I was only able to get 32"4 opener and 31"9 shroom laps Undecided... (60hz btw)

Nice one Math!

For me, first run of the session PR:

WC Flap 58"129.

Getting closer to that WR!  My r-tech is maddeningly inconsistent though...

Wow, now everyone is getting close to that WR but it hasn't fallen yet Shocked I wonder who will sub first... Maybe even Kouider would come back, although I doubt he'd play WC Tongue

School starts tomorrow, hopefully I can get a controller soon. Still won't be able to play as much though Lips Sealed And for some reason Math your MCT 3lap wasn't playing on my ipod, but it worked on the computer. Only vid of yours I've had this problem with Huh Fix your sig too...

Hi, yeah WC 57" is "easy" if we consider the spiral on R tech easy too, I missed a miniturbo on my 58"07 so you guys have to both sub !

Just to say huge congrats to you Andrew for number 1 on 60hz !
But you better keep playing, maybe I will try when I want to play (so you're safe for some time Smiley) and we want better world records !

Ryan, you can for sure have that wr when I see your driving now. Cool

Bye !
