It has nothing to do with SMK skills, but I still would like to allow it anyway. So I didn't pick any option  Undecided

By the way, if it'll be allowed in order to help sami in changing the standart we sould propose some ideas for Myth + time

As i played on pal , i 'll suggest something like 11"99 as it seems really hard to reach  Shocked !

You should vote karel.
At least dont bother with the exact vote , but at least choose yes or no, it will help sami to check if the majority of the people want this strat to be allowed for the site or not , i suppose being a mod can help him picking in the list only the ppl who is already on the site , but the vote of the other ppl is important too cos they can join the site one day.
Personally, no exact choice fit me so i voted "yes even though it's a glitch", but the most important is the yes cos i think it's a pretty interesting strat for competition , VERY more interesting than the classic tricks&glitches that we know.

All the other glitchs are also interesting strats for competition, but that doesn't mean they should be in the main rankings.  Infinite boost times could be included in the glitch rankings.

I don't see why this is any more of a glitch than the long boost so I am of the opinion that the inifinte boost should be allowed in the rankings.

Here are my 2 cents.

Just play it and such now , but wait for the times to be put on the site until the standards are made. Does that sound ok Tongue

FInally weekend , gonna sit 2 days straight if I have to. I gotta get my first win on MJ , be it only for a very short time Roll Eyes

Ok guys as it stands the times are fine to put on the site.  Smiley

Of course many will have Myth times and stuff straight away, so in due course the standards there can be adjusted based on whatever you think is suitable for NTSC/PAL. Just need some suitable suggestions then some time later we can change them. Until then there will be some people having temporary Myth + times Smiley

Just wanna make them accurate when they are done.

My suggestions Wink

Myth + times :
PAL 11"99  
NTSC 11"49 ? (didnt play it so cant have a very accurate time)

pal 12"26 should be something like Titan E or other  (just look my vid to have some indication of where we can win some times)

I just talked to Sami and we came to the same times yes, I didn't consider PAL though, for the same reason you didn't for NTSC. Don't know how accurate they will be, but for now it seems ok.  Smiley

Whoa!?  Shocked
Unbelievable that people still discover crazy new strats after all these years. I wonder how many more of these things still have to be discovered in this game. I also wonder if a game like MK64 also has surprises like these hidden for us...

I'm glad it only works on one track though... SMK competition would be seriously messed up if it was possible on all 40 tracks.

NTSC MC2 Lap Ranking :

1-  11"64   Karel van Duijvenboden
2-  11"70   Chris Balch
3-  11"87   Sebastien Holmiere


PAL MC2 Lap Ranking :

1-  12"26   Julien Holmiere
2-  12"28   Sebastien Holmiere
3-  12"43   Pierre L'Hoest



my suggestions for the myth+ standards for the moment :
PAL     11"99  seems a nice aim even though it ll be impossible to reach imo but i may be wrong Roll Eyes
NTSC   well maybe 11"49 atm

okay, so ive given this a shot. I can trigger it about 50% of the time, but trying to control it is beyond me!

It feels so weird trying to control the kart when its in IB mode, ive got to the big area of sand (where you usually LB across) loads of times, but when it comes to going back round i cant do it!

il keep trying tho  Smiley
