This would avoid the confusion. yes, I think I put it twice because I thought that way it’d be easier to make it count for both 3lap and Flap totals, but I don’t really know if that’s the case

I would agree with it too, but I hesitate because it means that one time is worth twice as much, in AF ranking etc.

I actually don’t understand what you’re saying there

in AF, it would count as a single time, how is that “twice as much”?

Oh right, I thought from the way you'd shown it, that the time would be entered as two separate times, but only counting WR tally once.

Mick's idea makes a lot and a lot of sense - I would like to second his suggestion.

Edit: You ninja'd me, but if you had two boxes, then you'd have two almost identical pages of times for that course, so I say leave it as one box, and someone clever enough will be able to put the time into both 3lap and flap totals (but is this what we all definitely want? - could we have it counting as either one 3lap or one flap instead?).

It'll still be weird referring to a full timesheet as 63/63 courses though, and if Wuhu island isn't the 16th, or the 32nd course, then it'll look awkward on the webpage, but apart from that, I think it's sorted.

Personally, though, I would wait and see how Nintendo manage the problem.
If the time is listed as both 3lap and flap in the game, the best choice would be to put the time as both 3lap and flap, too. Vice versa, if the game will only list it as a 3lap, we would imitate the game and remove the flap for the track.
I hope we can discover it out before the game comes out.

Wuhu Island may not be the only track with only one lap, though it's a given it won't be the case for retro tracks.
I doubt we'll get to know all of them before the game is out, but since the MK7 page only a few days after the game release it will be ok.

I guarantee that Wuhu won't be the 16th or 32nd course. 16 is reserved for RR, 17-32 for retro.

As for ALAKTORN's example, I think Wuhu should take up the same amount of space as any other course, just for consistency, as well as have the time aligned to the top left, instead of the center. And keep the vertical line that divides 3lap and flap times.

This request has definitely been made by someone who doesn't know the MK and the PP very well..

About the Wuhu Island thing.. As much as I do agree with Alaktorn and the others.. You must realize that it HAS to be in both the (WR) full race laps and fast laps charts.. That it's only one lap doesn't mean it's only a fast lap, and it also doesn't mean that a 1 lap full race isn't an flap.. On the other hand, since it's a 2 in 1 race... It should only count once in AF.

As for the layout, keep it in the middle, but make the box a bit bigger so that it stands out.. Or maybe modify the time's color a bit, make it Bold or something.

I'm sure there'll be a good solution for this 'problem'. I am positive a couple of the tracks won't even be 3laps.. MKDD also had Baby Park (7laps) and Wario Colosseum (2laps).
