The current list includes all people in the contest, plus a handful of guys who're quite likely to vote.  This registry will allow us to bring special stats at the conclusion of each match, so we need to get everyone in it.  If you're not in the contest but will be voting, it'd be nice if you could just post the following info here and we'll get you added right in:

Name
Nick
Year joining kart site
MAIN kart game(s)
Country
If you PRed in the last 6 months

Thanks, and happy voting!

Howdy. I'm Aidan Foyel and I think I joined in 2007.
My main kart game is mk64, ranked in top 250! I have also played a little bit of MKDD and MKW!
I'm from Australia and I havent pr'd in the last 6 months, although i would like to get back into it.
Cheers!


EDIT: my nickname is Ados

Sorry to be annoying, but my last name only has one b, (Weber).

It's supposed to be the MAIN kart games you play (see first post).


For me though, it only lists MKDD while I feel MK64 should be there as well; I haven't (yet?) played it as extensively as MKDD and I don't have as big a reputation there, but it has been my focus (on and off) in recent years and will quite possibly be again!
MKDS can/should be left out though.

SU/64/SC/DD/DS/WI - Karts played

I referred to this, but if it's only the main kart game then forget what I said

You didn't eliminate PYL; CPU Bowser did, but we won't take this thread there. ;-) Yeah, you could beat the unnecessarily risky 2008 Wonn, but not the overly conservative 2009 Wonn. I may even change my playing style again in 2010, just to confuse everyone.
 
Anyway, before I stray too far off-topic, I noticed that SMK wasn't listed by name. Sure, I haven't Time Trialed in that game since 2000, but I'd like to think I was equally influential in the mid-1990s with SMK as I was with MK64 in the late-1990s (if not more so.)
 
I barely did much with future Kart versions outside of discovering the Fake Item Block shortcuts in Double Dash and some WRs on retro tracks in Super Circuit, so I am perfectly fine with excluding those, and just adding SMK along with MK64 by my name.

Too much typing names in 1 day, heh.  If you see any other errors tell me

To you and all the others worried about their kart games getting included, we're only counting the MAIN games you're in, the part of the community you are most a part of.  If you've played MKDD for 2 years and happened to send in a MK64 timeset a year ago and played it for about a month, you're not really part of the MK64 voting block, if you get what I'm saying.  Most people only get 1 game, some get two, and maybe a couple have more than that.  Really it's supposed to measure how that part of the community reacts to a particular karter in the contest.  Better would have been limiting every karter to their one single main game, but there are a small number of people who post a lot and work hard on multiple games, to the point they should be included with more than one.  For example, Lacey is listed as 64, Wii, because he's the MKW updater and has a good feeling of what the MKW scene is like.  He's not listed as MKSC, SMK, MKDD, or MKDS, even though he has times in all those and has played them recently, because they're not his main areas by any means.

He's listed for MK64, SMK, and MKSC.

I'm both listed as OS and MS. This makes no sense.

I should be listed as OS since I joined in Feb 2004.

Am I not included in SMK since the vast majority of my time trialing in that game was done in 1995 - 1997? Or is a former #1 at NTSC not good enough? :-) I wouldn't be an MK64 player if it weren't for SMK, and I consider my contributions to both games as being equally important, even if it's been a decade since my last SMK WR.

The intention is to put you in your appropriate voting sphere.  Sure, you played SMK in 1995-1997, but do you really identify with today's SMK players? Have a hard time believing you do, as you haven't posted there in the last 2 years or so.  Basically all these are for is to be able to say "Sami won most of the SMK crowd, the tally being 20-4, but Fried took MK64 by a slim margin 19-18." at the end of each match.  They're not to show who's good at what games or how much you contributed to them, it's more of a gauge of where each player belongs in the community.  In other words, these categories are based on social characteristics, not competition-related achievements.  Originally we were going to give each person only one category, but a handful of people really are a big part of more than 1 Kart game's community.  However, to make everyone feel included, everyone gets at least one game on their list, even if they haven't been around since 2003 or never post/play it, or something.

Do you feel like you identify more with Dave Smith, April, Joe Bernier, Guillaume Leviach, and Florent Lecoanet; or Kevin Booth, Finn Berger, Cooper Lovera, Myles Bukrim, Nathan Stinson, and Pier-Yves Lemire?  Just judging by who you've participated at meets with, I'd lean toward the second group of names which is why you're listed as Kart 64.

Flo: No.

If Sami counts for MK64 (which I agree he does) then Wonn counts for SMK.

We've got lots of voters who still aren't on this list. It's not required, but it helps us get more accurate and interesting info about who is voting for who, so why not take 30 seconds and tell us who you are?

I am voting.

If you do not know who I am then you have not been around long.
