2013 Goals/Expectations
12/27/12 at 09:18:19
 
So, I thought SMK should also get this famous topic for the year 2013.

The only goal for the moment is to...
-gain the german crown in NTSC.
Apart from that, goals for the year:

-TOP5 NTSC
-A WR in NTSC
-All times Myth in NTSC
-Maybe fix my SNES and try PAL after that to find out that I horribly fail at it Grin

The feeling of being a world champion is intoxicating, and I didn't want to ever not be the world champion again. Then I realized it didn't matter that much since I had nothing more to prove and achieved my most important goal(s).

I know this is a pretty hard goal, but when I am motivated for a kart game I always set myself too low goals. So this may be the ideal kick to force me to the limits haha Smiley do you have any goals Mario?

Yep, as usual!

• #2 on the NTSC side (would be my best AF rank ever)
• #3 on the PAL side (would be my best PAL AF rank too), dethroning Kartie for French Champion title here too
• one very special WR
• kick some ass at CDM and get medal(s)

Let's see for the 2013 goals

-Attend CDM and finish inside the top-5 or preferably top-3
This goal requires me playing to the best of my ability at the very least. To get top-3 I also need to get the luck of the day in addition.

-Finally win a gold medal in an official PAL CDM tournament (if so, it'd be most likely TT)
If you enter the lottery enough times, you will eventually win it (unless you die of age first  Roll Eyes). As each year passes, a TT gold medal comes 1 year closer.  Grin

-Get ranked on SNESOT
Extremely easy goal, all it requires is me participating in NTSC BM and NTSC GP tournaments

-Regain BC domination in TT
All accross the board, that includes all PAL and NTSC NBT WR's. This will require considerable effort, but I'm up for it.

-Finish GP150cc PAL Mushroom Cup speedrun for SDA
Optionally finish more cups so I can submit the entire package, but each cup takes a hell of a lot of effort to do reasonably well during the entire run.

-Set some cool WR's in SPK TT
-MC5 and VL3 NBT WR's, to be precise.  Smiley

1) Manage to update non-NBT site without MATLAB (shouldn't be hard, answer in January)

2) At least 1 WR (on NBT and/or non-NBT site, I don't talk about a WR with Koopa or something else)

Apart from that, goals for the year:

-A WR in NTSC


0"01 away in KB2 flap already!  Shocked

Goals for me would include:

-For Sami's site, all times in the top 50 again. Just need GV3 flap and RR 5lap, neither of which will be easy to improve, but NBT just might save the day. If I'm really feeling ambitious from there I might try to get all times in the top 40. Wish me luck on GV3 and RR 5lap.

-On the Non-NBT site: Legend overall! Top 20 should come along with that.

-All I need is KB2 flap and all of my flaps will be rated Emperor or better.

-Get that damned 1'30" sub on BC3. This might not be that hard really...

-Another big sub is of course the 1'00" on MC1 Non-NBT. I'd better stop slacking before Leyla beats me to this  Smiley

-Get a time, any time, into the Top 20. I have never had a top 20 time on Sami's site. Smiley

@Joe: Personally I'm quite happy with carrying a few extra pounds. You and Clark may be different but I still feel great weighing 222. Cheesy
As for SMK you should try to become the first American rated Myth overall! C'mon, be honest here, aside from Tyler's one WR the U.S. looks really bad in the high ranks of this game. You can't count on me to do it can you?

I lost the drive, man. Having regular sex with a girlfriend kills all creativity/ambition...

To try to compete on the level I was at would take me just as long as it did to climb the ranks the first time. Do I want to go through all that trouble to improve my times by "30 at best? I gave BC1 a real go on PAL last year. That's my favorite PR that I never even submitted... Shame on me.

But yeah, I feel no way to compete at the highest level again, unless I go all in like Sami currently is. Watching his progress has been so much fun!  Smiley

What the heck, I'll put out some goals for myself. I don't know how many of these I can get, but I'll try to get at least all the easy ones. I'll need to be active to get all of these  Roll Eyes

Sami's site:

Keep a pure non-NBT timeset (easy Smiley)
Hero A (medium, need 48 standards)
20/40 Emperors (hard, need 5 more)
Pass Jonathan Girard, who's #41 right now (hard, need almost 6 AF)

Non-NBT site:

All flaps Legend F or better (easy, only need 13"19 and 14"66 on GV3 but those might be harder than I think)
All times King B or better (easy, need GV1, KB1, CI2, and VL1 5laps)
Flap SR under 4.5 (easy, need 6 more standards)
5lap SR under 7 (easy, need 20 more standards)
All flaps in top 20 (easy, only need MC2 and GV3)
Flap total time sub 4'46 (medium, 0"40 away)
#15 NTSC (hard, needs a score of about 7.5)
All 5laps in top 25 (hard, missing 11)
Keep GV2 CR (will need to pray that Tyler or even Nick doesn't beat it)

Course-specific:

GV1 non-NBT 4/5 PJ
MC2 non-NBT sub 14"5
CI1 non-NBT sub 58
BC2 non-NBT mid 1'41
MC3 non-NBT sub 1'31
Learn how to do KB1 waterslides consistently
Learn the CI2 mudboost
VL1 sub 54
BC3 sub 1'30
MC4 sub 1'39
GV3 mid 1'14

Hopefully setting a ton of goals will motivate me to get at least some of them, obviously most of my goals are for the non-NBT site but getting those will help my other ranking as well.

Roll on 2013! Smiley

While that may be good for style points, you're limiting your own progress on Sami's site.

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
Hero A (medium, need 48 standards)


See above, you're making it overly hard on yourself doing it all without NBT, but Matthias Boucher ("Gatchan") has an Emperor A timesheet on NTSC that's all Non-NBT.

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
20/40 Emperors (hard, need 5 more)


Much, much harder to get Emperors without NBT, since you're expeced to use it at this level.
Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
All times King B or better (easy, need GV1, KB1, CI2, and VL1 5laps)


I'd like this as well. Like you, I'm being held back largely by KB1 and CI2.

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
All flaps in top 20 (easy, only need MC2 and GV3)


Well if you want State Record on MC2 flap that's one of the two right there  Cheesy
GV3 is definitely one of the hardest ones.

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:

I don't expect to beat this TBH, Tyler is probably a much bigger threat. Even my current 11"74 was with NBT.

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
GV1 non-NBT 4/5 PJ


I've done this. The 5/5 should be your true goal.  Wink

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
MC3 non-NBT sub 1'31

Of course, since I have 1'31"00. I could have gotten it slightly lower still, so by the time you get this sub you may not be guaranteed a State Record  Smiley

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
Learn how to do KB1 waterslides consistently


I'm quite nonplussed by the KB1 watersliding strat myself, I lose way, way too much speed and can't really figure out what I do wrong. It's what's keeping me in the lower Kings on this course. Plus if I don't put up a better 5lap some time, you can clearly see what will inevitably happen...  Smiley

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
VL1 sub 54

This shouldn't be too hard for you at all! I had a 53"9x Non-NBT. You'll probably want a State Record to go along with it anyway.

Andrew K wrote on 12/31/12 at 03:18:48:
BC3 sub 1'30

You can really prove yourself by beating me to this goal, since I've switched to NBT here.  Smiley

Just read this.  Decided to play and already set a new pr 11"71 on my first completed PJ.  I hate this track so you are probably safe.

Gain 1 place in pal to pass Matt after that anything else would be a bonus.
Top30 ntsc.
Another few Myth times would be nice (I have MC1/CI2 laps on pal and ntsc).
A top10 time somewhere would be great as well.
Have one of those random jumps in ability that seem to happen every once in a while, though I doubt this will happen.

Since my goals were too unambitious in 2012, here are my 2013 goals.

-Full set of hero ranks
-Women's world champion on NTSC or at least beat Yukiko
-One emperor rank (will probably be MC1 or DP1 F-LAP I reckon)
-At least a 3/5 PJ on GV1 NTSC
-Top 70 on NTSC and top 100 on PAL if I succeed at NTSC
-full set of bumper jumps on all Bowser Castles
-Clean VL1 & VL2
-LB lap on MC2 with the proper trajectory and 5/5 LB 5 lap
-Improve my non-NBT driving (Full set of elite ranks at least)

A few mini goals until End of February:

-All times Titan and TOP20 (only MC2 left, so "probably" no big deal...)
-30 german records
-30 Myth times
-Myth D ARR
-Sub 10 AF

Just to stay motivated. I got a bit less time to play, but that shouldn't stop me from karting Smiley. I bet I won't even get all of them, but let's try Cheesy!
