The player's response to the hate and things of such (Drogbass, more commonly known as Wrath)

note: these aren't my words, I'm just quoting his post"Just found out about the thread here, reddit, etc. when I got home last night so I figured I’d type up a little response. Would’ve come sooner but I haven’t logged into this site since the summer and didn’t know how many Rainbow Roads there are in MK8 so it took a while to reset my password. Not going to take the time to respond to everything but I’ll try and hit some key points:

You don't go for SCs if you're not 90% sure to get them. His skills are average-good, but his strategy choices are being terrible.
My goal was to showcase as many tricks as possible while staying within reason. I was more than willing to throw minutes away from the run time in order to add some style. I understand that it’s a Games Done Quick marathon, however Mario Kart Wii is not a speed running game and it wouldn’t have been too exciting for the typical audience member had I sat in a chair and drove each individual track the way it’s intended to be played for 35 minutes. The main point of the event is to entertain, create interaction, and get donations for charity. It was successful in doing so even with the technical problems they had with the tracker during the run.

Should've practiced more before this whole thing, it is honest to God embarrassing for the MKW community, especially the Time Trial community... I don't hate Wrath at all as a person but this is the truth.
With regard to my practice—
I brought my Wii to college intending to give a little bit of time to practicing every now and then, however doing well in school, socializing, and pledging during the first semester barely allowed for eating or sleeping let alone practicing a children’s racing game. I came home after finals the week before Xmas and was able to get back in relative form in about a week. I also put in a ton of practice at the venue before my run and was playing fine by my standards (I was hitting high 34’s to high 37’s and getting all the glitches pretty consistently).
I didn’t get the vibe that I embarrassed the community nor myself when talking to some TTers of other MK games who I hung out with for a good amount of time when I was there—I think you might be making a bit of an exaggeration. It’s evident that I didn’t do as well as I would’ve liked but you’re grasping at straws if you really believe that this had anything more than a microscopic effect on a dying community. Anyway, if I did, and for some reason someone ever says “hey remember when that guy was bad at mario kart at agdq! mkwii is such a shit game haha!” then I’m sorry for embarrassing a community most noted for immaturity, cheaters, and kids pretending to have mental disorders.

Of course nerves had something to do with it…A lot of it was very amateur hour-ish. Using this as an example to get the community "known" is not a positive.
I was nervous when on the drive down and when I got there but it sort of went away after getting settled into the hotel and spending some time in the practice room. As the DKR run started to end the nerves started to come back and they hit me pretty hard, which I’m sure was obvious. After I rushed the MG glitch and botched it I really shit the bed, I’m aware of that but there’s nothing I can do about it—it’s hit or miss and unfortunately I missed.
As for what I put in bold, at no point was my reason for doing this ever remotely close to getting the community “known.” For me, this was an opportunity to have one last gaming experience and do something unique. If you’re still concerned with getting this community “known” at this point you’re wasting your time. This is a small niche community that consists of a majority of toxic individuals who create a poor environment.
TL;DR
Did I prepare? Yes
Could I have prepared more? Yes
Did I do as well as I would’ve liked? No
If this were a few years back I would’ve taken the feedback here and been really hurt by it but instead it’s a bit comical. It makes me sad to think that I had nothing better to do than be a part of this community for so many years but I suppose you live and learn. I did this because it seemed like a cool thing to do and I had an amazing time. If anyone has anything they’d like to know feel free to ask here and I’ll get back to you before I disappear again."
