I will buy a new GBA maybe next month... I don't really HAVE to play MKSC, it's fun as soon as you find out how to control and stuff (the feeling for it) but it's not the same as SMK (crashed my timeset: 80/80 new PRs)

Also, 3 weeks from now, Tuesday the 1st of March sounds like the agreed upon starting day. So, players will be finalized on the 21st. On the 23rd, the player's final rankings and seeds are set in stone. From that day till the 26th, the thread will be open for voting on what the fairest team combination will be, and the competitors should each send me a PM for what they want the first three challenges to be. The 27th and 28th are days for team organization, i.e. getting skype contacts for strat discussion/tips, and maybe even team names.

^ Sorry about that! I completely skipped over this thread. Smiley

Each person sends in 1 suggestion for a challenge, and out of the 9 challenges, 3 are picked for the week.

Anyway, the official players and seeds are up! Check the first post; I will edit it in a couple minutes. (Now I can send in my hoarded PRs...) Roll Eyes

Okay, the options are up.

The first option is strictly seed based.

The second option is AF based. The teams would be:

Mick, NStride, Web. = 123 AF total. (115.4 = group AF average/ 354 points overall), (Will likely do well in 2 events of the week, kind of a wild card team depending on how much Web plays.)

vs. Flo, V|K, humpy. = 104 AF total (Above the average, however, Flo will not be allowed to ZZMT, so it might not be unbalanced at all.)

vs. Robman, Zwiebel, Christophe. = 119 (AKA the mighty average team. Nothing special here; not likely to pull off 2 first places a week, not likely to get less than 1 first place finish a week. And even if they do, they won't have a weak link in the chain.)

This poll will be up until the end of February 28th (EST). Votes after that will be considered final, and the teams will be official.

Please send in your challenges now. You ARE allowed to skype/xat/AIM/YouTube/whatever with anyone in this competition.

Looking forward to this.

I choose "Seed based" because "AF based" looks unbalanced to me. Having 2 of the 3 best players in my team makes it strong, even more when you say Andy is better than what his current rank suggests, and has the advantage of being the host of the comp (and thus making the challenges to his taste and knowing in advance many of them)

No, that is why everyone is sending in a submission, I'm labeling each one a number, throwing them in a hat, shaking it up, and we play the first three that I draw. So it's actually totally random.

Not trying to change yours or anyone else's votes; just looked like I needed to clarify that.

(Yes, that's 9 new challenges sent in a week. I won't play any of them before everyone else knows which ones we're playing.)

I guess it's optional, but I would still recommend it because you can create a challenge you could have an advantage in. Also, if nothing gets sent over here, I'll have to make them up myself and... that wouldn't be impartial on my part anymore.

I encourage the remaining 3 players in this comp to submit their votes. Also, humpy, please submit only 1 challenge, not 3. Can you resend your PM with 1 picked? Thanks. Also, missing 8 7 challenge submissions from the other players; please submit your challenge.

If you are in this competition and haven't voted in the poll yet, please do so soon.

Also, missing quite a few challenges guys. Here are some ideas to perhaps get your creativity going...:

- Cheese land: required to use Mario and you must hit 4 mice/rats a lap
- BC3: not allowed to use drift
- Rainbow Road, no shrooms allowed.

^ These are just ideas to give you a start. If you like one of them, feel free to submit it, I won't care.

The game will start in 2 days.

Well, the voting time is up for the poll, and it ended in a dead 4 vs. 4 tie. Therefore, the game will run on the seed based system. You can contact your team members now when you see this and let them know the game has started.

WEEK 1 CHALLENGES:

1:

Mario Circuit 1 Sami's style

Character : DK
Drive 5 laps on RMC1 like you would do on Super Mario Kart non-NBT. Mini-turbos or shrooms are not allowed, but you may still use jumps and drifts. Pipe jumps are optional Roll Eyes

2:

Sunset Wilds Zipper Fever

Character : Any

Do a fast lap in which you hit EVERY zipper on Sunset Wilds. All techniques/shrooms/whatever is allowed.

3:

Ghostbusters

Character: Any

Drive three laps on Broken Pier, but clear all the ghosts except one. (IGNORE the ghost in the middle by the plank island; he's a bit hard to reach.) No lap skips/etc.

Good luck competitors. If you have ANY questions, post them here.

Also, see post one if you have any questions about players and teams.

Though I think all ghosts should be cleared, as none of them is stupidly hard... Don't make me redo this one again, please...

Yes, there is one by the little island. If you don't believe me, go past it and turn around to look, or shroom and fall off the course just to the left of it. There is one there, lol.
