Leaderboard Update 1st (+0).... 46 (-3) ----- No64DD 2nd (+1)... 42 (+1) ----- rdools 3rd (-1).... 39 (-4) ----- Pimpin Mainer 4th (+0)..... 31 (+7) --- kartmaster 5th (+1)..... 05* (+1) ----- Cabanon 6th (-1)..... 03* (-2) ---- Meader * Corrected previous error. Details below. New Users: none Users Falling Out of Points: None Most 1st Place Times: TIE No64DD, rdools (11) Most Top 3 Finishes: Pimpin Mainer (21) Biggest Movers: kartmaster (+7 pts) Most Times Submitted This Week: TIE rdools, kartmaster (4) Closest Margin of Victory: 0.08 Seconds (Koopa Troopa Beach SC, rdools over No64DD) What a week(ish)! Rdools continues his steady ascent towards the top, this week passing Pimpin Mainer who felt some attrition as a total of 9 new times were submitted. Only 4 points separate 1st and 2nd, and the Top 3 are all within 10 points of each other! It wouldn't be an update without me correcting a previous error of mine! I believe last week I had Cabanon's and Meader's points switched. So thanks to my mistake EVERYBODY's points changed this week! Even if some were just clerical. Will Pimpin Mainer battle back? Can No64DD hold on to the lead? Will Bamboozled's JPN cart ever arrive? Let's find out. |

Awesome! No64DD I'm coming for the top! Need to figure out these short cuts! @kartmaster you aren't too far behind yourself! Nice to see you reclaiming some of those lost points from your busy year end! Edited by rdools, Jan 31 2016, 12:32 PM.

Whew!! I really thought i was a gonner this time! I've offically wore out the thumbstick on my Yellow standard... the same controller i've used since the beginning. I don't know if it's just me, but it doesn't want to do what i tell it to anymore. Time to start fresh. Edited by No64DD, Jan 31 2016, 12:48 PM.

Don't be silly rdools, those are correct. I am that fast... Not... fast enough for first but, fast enough for both 3rd and 4th. |

well, he's right in a sense that you shouldn't have 2 scored input for the same course. |

Fixed that. Thanks for pointing it out! Points don't change because I had it correct on my spreadsheet, which is where the points are calculated. I just didn't translate the name correctly over to the first post. I've shared this before, but if anyone wants to look over it for errors, here's the link. This is where the magic happens. http://bit.ly/1YMymE2 |

Totally remembered a place to save a bit of time here. Was wondering why I was so far off the top time!

Wait wait, I'm second guessing myself here. Is cutting that loop considered a shortcut, you know, that spot before the big egg where you can hop over. I used to do that as a kid and never really thought of it as a short cut

Best time of the night :![]() Not enough to move a place, but a significant improvement. Did you guys battle this one out at some point, because those times are very competitive |

Nice times, Rdools! I'll get a leaderboard update coming soon! You asked about the Yoshi's Valley SC earlier. TLDR: I'm going to have to count your YV posted time as a shortcut time. Early in this thread that, and Koopa Troopa Beach was hotly debated. At that time we decided to consider the KTB Ramp, and that curve hop on Yoshi's Valley to be SHORTCUTS. I recognize that is different that what's generally accepted on MarioKart64.com. However that was the consensus here at the time. I'm always up for changing what is designated a shortcut, but this far into the competition it needs to be pretty much unanimous, as it will effect the leaderboard. |

Yep not a problem, I'll give that one a go. But I doubt I'll get anywhere near No64DDs time on that |

I will return one day, just been too busy to sit down and play MK64 for hours, and yes it takes hours to beat some of these scores... There is always time for a second wind for the Hurricane de Pimp!

The last couple weeks of work have kicked my :donkey:. Haven't had much time either. I was in a nice groove, so we will see how long they can hold out. I can already expect I've gotten rusty. |

33 is good, I really wish I still have my ghost saved somewhere of my 24 seconds run back in the day, same for Mario Circuit with a 56 seconds times. |

Hey KM, can we get an eta on an update, curious if I picked up enough points to move up. That might shake things up and give some incentive to earn a couple extra points! |

Leaderboard Update 1st (+1).... 45 (+3) ----- rdools 2nd (-1)... 44 (-2) ----- No64DD 3rd (+0).... 38 (-1) ----- Pimpin Mainer 4th (+0)..... 31 (+0) --- kartmaster 5th (+0)..... 05 (+0) ----- Cabanon 6th (+0)..... 03 (+0) ---- Meader New Users: None...yet Users Falling Out of Points: None...yet Most 1st Place Times: rdools (14) Most Top 3 Finishes: Pimpin Mainer (21) Biggest Movers: rdools (+3 pts) Most Times Submitted: rdools (5) VVVVEeeeeee: No64DD 8 Weeks @ #1 It happened. It finally happened. A leaderboard update! More importantly, rdools takes First Place on the leaderboard for the first time! Given the talent in this thread, that is a HUGE accomplishment! I will be honest, after rdools first couple of posts here I didn't think you would stick around. But you went back, dug in and I think it's safe to say you've definitely found your zone. Now, all that said... the top of the points is still incredibly close! One solid week and No64DD or Pimpin Mainer could be right back in 1st. Times are getting very close and competitive. Oh how elusive those last twenty hundredths of a second can be though! Thanks for your patience with these updates. Recently trying to re-balance work, family and "me" time. I assure you after 19 years, my passion for Mario Kart 64 still burns bright.
