Go to the virtual console menu on the gamepad and in the top left corner you should see four squares in a horizontal row with the first blue square illuminated designating player 1; tap on the touchscreen to change to player 2. You'll have to drive on the bottom screen though.

I've been waiting on King and Lafungo, the only moderators across 3 unique Mario Kart games to approve my runs for 19 days now and counting. Even Rookie is upset his legal run was removed 3 weeks ago and no-one has even been online to re-add it. I think we need 1 or 2 more mods.

It's not just that my runs aren't updated, it's everyone's. The entire competition and rankings are currently put to a 3 week unannounced halt.

I am also worried that their backlog of updates is potentially going to be so overwhelmingly massive when they return that they might just rapidly approve all of them to get through the queue quickly and lazily, possibly allowing for illegitimate runs to undetectably get passed through to the leaderboards far more easily. (Which is hypocritical when compared to their very strict attitude of banning legit runs because no vid)

(I am willing to take the position :P)

It's game changing and needs to be banned.

A user named Lafungo claims #2 WW and claims to have a video. But the video is nowhere to be found. Is this time lied about?

Yeah it's a (even if slightly) different metagame when playing with two humans in one race. It wouldn't be fair to others below you in the ranks. Why not take turns and time yourselves doing a 1 try attempt? Like a SRL race. Then you can both submit individual times.

No, that's too many.

Excellent post, Rookie, I couldn't agree more.

Edit: The only part I disagree with personally: ''I would avoid leaf piles outside of the 2 that are used in the wr run for coins, since they like to give you shells and bananas sometimes. ''

You removed the #1 time by Rookie because Rookie didn't have a video. Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----blazethecat's----- WR as well. Oh wait! Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----Trickyz's----- WR as well. Oh wait! Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----your (Lafungo (the mod on this section that keeps rejecting runs))----- WR as well. Oh wait! Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----my----- WR as well. Oh wait! Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----portal’s----- WR as well. Oh wait! Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----hypnoshark----- WR as well. Oh wait! Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----Dannyboy19852's----- WR as well. Oh wait! Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----Mamafuzz01’s----- WR as well. Oh wait! Now the former #2 time is now #1, and that doesn't have a video. Therefore, you will need to delete -----Wojo54’s----- WR as well. Oh wait!

Oh wait! Now -----jtmagicman----- (the guy that created this very thread) has gotten his way! You have the world record now. Nice work man. Real deserved. Looks like you could cut off like 10 minutes though based on your run.

^I can agree with that. I don't think it makes sense to have that needed in miscellaneous categories though. For example I have the BKT in the Nitro cups and my run is SHIT. No One has played the category much and thats why it's BKT as of now. i am unable to record on 3ds btw.

Rhode Island, USARhodechill9 years ago

can second the not charging up completely thing. sometimes i'll flick LRLRL or w/e at what seems like the right intervals and it doesn't work, randomly, like 33% of the time...

It's not a compromise when it's literally:

The entire community vs. jtmagicman

Look at the 2nd post in this thread. Noone wants this.

"Wii U appears very slightly faster than Wii but it adds up to a 12 second difference throughout a 32 track run. "

Wow. Thanks for doing this. Excellent video.

Upon investigation, I likely do not have WR potential. :P

thread: Mario Kart 7
Rhode Island, USARhodechill9 years ago

REALLY? Wow, so much for the motivation to play this game, and I might even have WR potential...

Rookie and I are approved and verified on the mario kart player's page

it's not all about videos

established players with long histories of showing times, sharing ghosts, racing others etc, can all lead to a reputable source of information!

even a webcam would be awkward as fuck to try and record, all while emitting WR level gameplay for 75+ mins straights......

you guys are nuts if you think MK7 players need a vidoeo every time. im sorry but thats what i think.

As in, DLC tracks only (16 track itemless speedrun). Seems like it should be there, maybe it was forgotten? lol.
