In the PM I said him not to LOL at me, otherwise he'd get flammed. Because he doesn't understand:
1- who is he talking with (that is, not a random noob, but someone who's around the competitive scene from a little more time than him, and whose considerations shouldn't be laughed at)
2- the points I'm making

Now, seeing that you keep being arrogant, you'll get flammed. Maybe this will let you get my point.



You understand how videogames work, right? Every game has its mechanics and its rules, right? Not hard til now.
Now, if you want to go and set high scores in videogames, you try everything that the game allows you in order to set the highest score possibile. Still easy until here, you should still follow me.
Let's talk about Mario Kart and its competitive history. Players Page was born in 1997 by Kevin Booth for Mario Kart 64 players, and guess what, I was there! In Mario Kart 64 there were some tracks that allowed some major shortcuts that let you cut tons of time. Players back then decided to give each other some set of rules in order to separate charts in those track that had certain shortcuts. You play Mario Kart since... DS version if I recall correctly, you should know these things, right?
Ever since, this idea has been kept in order to give everyone the chance to play as they felt better, and to avoid having several tracks played only for very short parts. That's where the "natural" idea comes from. Have you gotten thus far? I hope so.

Now, there are some aspects that are to be considered when deciding if a certain technique has to be considered SC (with capital SC I mean a shortcut that if used makes the attempt to fall in the separate chart) or not.

In my opinion, explained in the post of which you obviously missed the point, I illustrated whose factors I think are the ones to follow and which I think have been followed until now, and explained why this particular Lakitu pickup should not fall into an SC.

You can argue my opinions, that's pacific.

But you do not, and I repeat, you do not come and LOL at me.

Got that?

I hope this clears up your head a little bit.

Learn better who you're messing with before posting with arrogance.

Oh, now that's how you should have handled the conversation in the first place. You made your point in an arrogant way and laughing at me, there's no doubt about it, go read your post again. If those weren't your intentions, no problem. You just expressed yourself badly.

I just wanted to make sure that you won't do that again. It seems you've learnt the lesson, because if you have to keep that in your signature, it means you need a constant reminder of it. Glad to have helped you out

By the way, I'm not stating that I must be right. I haven't done that even in my first post. I was bringing up a discussion about an issue that should be analyzed further.

I’m TTing this track and this time is actually good so I’m requesting proof or I’ll remove it from the first post

any BKT you get that’s actually good will have to be backed up by proof

Is that Hatomugi, a Japanese MKWii player?

What 9 coins do you collect on the first lap of DH, nicola? Are they the same 9 as the one recently posted in the video topic? Are they the same as the one in the video recently posted in the video topic? Heh, i'll probably move on to the next track now anyway, but still would like to know.

(I got 1:43.907 with 8-2-0 and 35.443, 34.444, 34.030 splits)

I really haven't been that motivated with TTs in this game so far... took a day off plus my thumbs were hurting a lot lol.
