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).

Also I'm going to train my balls off for CDM. It'd be nice to make it at least in the top 16 in all four modes

Finishing my SMK job with that goddamn 80^th M+ would be enough as far as I'm concerned.

Can you really take another quarter of a second off the PAL RR 5lap WR? Do we even know if it's possible? Has Sami set for us a Myth+ standard that actually cannot be reached?

You'll have to average less than 17"28 a lap, meaning that laps 2-5 will have to average, at the very least, Top 10 flap level (might as well say you'll be trying to get four Myth-level flaps in a row).

Possible? Most likely. Humanly possible? I guess the answer is "maybe" until the day that it becomes "yes". Somebody might have even driven a 1'25"xx with TAS, but we're talking about human reflexes acting in real time.

I believe there still remains some unreached God standards in a few other Mario Kart games as well.

Yes, it's possible, I know that I can get a high 1'26"4x at the moment, so if I do it I'll obviously have the ghost to go after the M+. That's the way WRs are pushed further away. Wink

GP:
No particular goal
Remain #1 on PAL OPEN and NBT
Remain #1 on NTSC OPEN and NBT

TT:
NTSC: reach #3 overall while Chris is not motivated Roll Eyes

PAL: reach #4 before Aron comes back

CDM:
Keeping my title would be very hard but really cool.
On a softer approach, a medal in BM (gold this time, tired of losing against geo on the last balloon two years in a row.)
Adding to that a medal in a 2P racing mode would be perfect.

For those who want specific WRs (Karel, Chris): please specify

Antistar, good to see you still have the last Myth+ time in your mind. It will be a mythical (pun intended) achievement. How long since the last "first" Myth+? In any case, will it have been the hardest WR or it's just the way the standard was set up?

For me, the goal will be to reach the top 100 in NTSC (#106 right now), and make some progress on PAL, perhaps under 120 (#129 now).

My goals for the year are getting all my times in the top 20-25, and get a myth + time, while finding a way to spend more time with my son, between work, and SMK. Hopeful to get an honorable mention next year too, .

I'm the one who set the last "first" M+, it was VL2 f-lap in October, 2014. I had also hit the BC2 5-lap one just before. If I'm correct I've also hit all the ones that had not been hit when I became #1 in PAL (GV1, GV2, BC2, BC3 5-laps), which helped to get a much lower AF and keep my title much longer than expected.

EDIT: I know it's always good to see that I still have it in my mind, but to be honest, it would be so ridiculous to stop at 79/80 M+ times. Even if I'm kinda retired from SMK I just cannot stop thinking about it.

Thanks for the answers.

Good. As much as people love that race, there aren't many of us in position to reach that milestone.

At the same time, having this unreached goal is positive for the excitation in SMK in general.

By the way, since I'm too lazy to check this: has any MK player reached all GODs on a specific Players Page, or could SMK be the first one where someone achieves this?

None of the others have overall Gods (MK8 doesn't even have standards yet).
