On the join page it says:

Quote:

For most of the retro courses you can get away with just the shortest abbreviation (e.g just 'YF' instead of 'RYF' or 'DS YF', and just 'SL', 'BC3', etc), but if you want this to work then you should write the abbreviation at the start of the line.

What happens if we just type "YF" by itself? Does it count or not? Imo it should count, because there's only 1 YF in the game. Even "BC3" and MC3" should count as RBC3 and RMC3, imo, because it's kind of hard to accidentally type an extra 3. The only retro courses that can be confused with non-retro are RMC and RBC.

I have understood that the game doesn't keep track of your flaps and it only shows your splits for a couple of seconds. This makes it harder to beat your flap records and harder to submit them to the MKWII site. There is also a proof issue. In addition to the current average finish ladder, could it be possible to have an average finish ladder for courses only? This would encourage more people to send in their times... Just an idea Huh

If the game doesn't keep track of flaps, then I agree with ArtoJ and maybe the main rankings should only be 3laps. Counting flaps for AF if the game doesn't keep track of them is like counting best 0-shroomers and stuff. I realize that flaps have obviously been a part of tradition on the MK sites, but that's because the game kept track of them. If the games never kept track of flaps, flaps would have never been included in the sites. So, in my opinion, if the game doesn't keep track of flaps, the site shouldn't either.

But I'm fine with the situation either way, it doesn't make a difference to me.

There's just no way to see them except by finishing a race, and after you finish the race they only stay on the screen for about 10 seconds.

I would like to make some suggestions.

1- Make the old track names with the game name, not putting Retro on all of them, I think it's very important for new players, since calling all them just as retros feels like everyone has played all the MK games and know every name course by heart.

2- I think it would be nice if it's possible (probably only Alex can answer when he come back) to add a language selection option in the WR page, charts page to select the language too, it would be nice that we had all the avaliable languages in the game on the site (track names, etc)

3- Doing the translating also in the news section, after its posting, the translators will translate without hurry and post in the forum and then someone updated the site.

If I remember anything else I'll post later.

Moritz

Someone should collect all these thoughts.
I agree with Moritz. It should be in the players' profile or something, not right next to the names.
