I may bother to get a SC timeset since I have now reached a great grasp of the all the driving mechanics in the game, and that most of the SC's are now fairly easy to get at least once.

You can't quit kart, it's a mental impossibility.

Before considering addition of shortcut times, I wanted to get some idea of how many people might actually compete hence that poll. I'm sure everyone agrees it's great listing these times in some form. If no one submits though they would just sit there and look identical to non-sc.

Just to be absolutely clear, what are we going with precisely?

1. 3 charts (80 times each) - No Shortcut, No Trick, No Restriction
2. 2 charts (80 times each) - No Shortcut and No Restriction
3. 2 charts (80 times each) - No Shortcut and No Trick
4. 2 charts (80 times and 124 times) - No Shortcut and Combined Shortcut

It sounded like you guys were in agreement with option 1.

I don't want Alex to configure something nice only to change it under some misunderstanding here about how we want shortcut times added to the site.

Karters cannot create anything out of nothingness. Karters cannot accomplish anything without holding onto something. After all, karters pretend to be gods.

It would probably be easier to just have the specific courses listed but still have the AF include all 80 (sort of like MKW's nonSC charts), though many probably disagree with me here.

As I've said before, I'm in agreement with #1.

Unlike Hahaae, I think that we should have 80 No Trick charts despite redundancy because I think No Trick and No Restriction should have equal standing on the site, and by adding No Trick in the same way as MKWii Non-SC, you're making it "dependent" on No Restriction, and hence giving it less value.

The shortcut charts are also adaptable when set up this way.

It's entirely possible a new lap skip is discovered which would allow people to submit this to No Restriction while keeping their previous record which becomes a new rule there for No Trick. This is much easier than having to rebuild the charts each time and resubmit. Basically the same principle for mkds since we added non-prb rules where prb or shortcuts were later employed.
