The family of german languages doesn't have words to describe what i thought about you two during the races. I think that Rols problem definately is that he has got used to drive in the first place, now that others are cathing up with him, and he's not familiar with the item spam and getting hit by someone, when driving in the center places, we others do have an advantage over him. Haha. @Rol: I would have beat you anyway in Shy Guy Beach. By the way, it was me, who fired the first red shell, but i didn't know that you hit a crab too (you would have been doomed even without the crab).   Hey, I'm the only one who plays with a kart rather than a bike, so I might as well use the weight factor to my favor every once in a while ;) I've also been getting better at the driving I think, although I'm still much worse than most or all of you.

Your bad vehicle decision is supposed to be your problem, not mine. Well, one thing i've learned: don't do a wheelie when passing a kart, or at least be very cautious.
You actually drive really good with a kart.
Don't take my rant too seriously, Mario Kart is a full contact sport.

By the way, after our league GP:s, i went to WFC to play few random matches and there was a guy "i pwn you" with 2800 rating. In the race, i practically drove in the first place since the start and was wondering what clown the guy is (at first i thought that someones kid is playing, like my own kids sometimes wants to play in WFC) since i passed it with a lap, in the first half of my second lap. One race after that, there were two "i pwn you" guys, and i noticed that the guys tried tn hunt me down in favor of the guy in the second place. Soon i noticed, that third "i pwn you" joined the group and then there were three guys to hunt me down. After two races i left and joined another race (i won all the races, except for one, where i finished second).

If you are 5th or worse, the items your are getting are worth the time you put in getting them garantued. It seems to me, what item you get is set by the place your drive over the item box, not the time the you can actually use it. That means if I make a jump to get a "?" and you get passed me, I get the more powerfull item, and most likley throw something add you, or get you with a mushroom or something. And in the end, only the place after the 3rd round counts, so maybe if you are in the pack, think about to make the jump to get a good item. Also I noticed that you nearly never lay down your "protection" if you are first. If you have the second banashelf allready availible, lay down the current one on a good place. It will help you. A lot of people drive into the banashelfs. On the throw somebody off the course part: It seems that there are 2 things important for that: How "heavy" is the bike you are using and how much do you drive in the direction of the driver you want to throw off. It helps if you throw sombody harder by drifting, or have a miniboost. If he is driving straight, he will seriosly loose his "line".   I noticed one thing yesterday; you and NJ5 have learned how to hit people.

I know how to get the people out of my way and stop them, and I choosed a bike that is able to. Could drive with the same as rol, but has no weight and therefore you loose trying. If I have lags, I still know, but the problem is that their Wii doesn't know in time what I am doing. Yesterday I had no legs :P

So if you see my name, or see me in your back mirror, get the hell out of my way, it is easier for you, and me :P (*trying to be funny*)

Ha ha.  Reminds me of a time when I was playing online and there was a guy who was waiting and collecting all the items when people were approaching apart from when the guy he was helping.  The first time I saw it happen my wife and I almost died of laughter.  He was parked sideways by the items and just as I was approaching he drove accross and collected everything.  After it happened a few times it was no longer funny and I was crying out for Nintendo to ban them. 

Oh I need to disable the bot while i am racing. That was truly lagging for me sometimes :(

Oh com on. No trash talk this time around? I want some Trash talk!

Noticed that in 1 or 2 races.  Also noticed that Rol seemed to drive the last 2 GPs with a vengeance.  Don't think he took to kindly to doing badly on Tuesday.

Ben needs more VG$ to bet on predictions league.

I noticed that NJ5 have practiced using bombs. He got me twice on Maple Treeway with bombs and when i was catching you others, took a bad line in the U-shaped turn, where you jump for items, and when i landed, i dropped straight off between the tree and the turns end.
And i'm not going to forgive Twroo (if i recall) for pushing me down in the last jump in N64 Bowsers Castle. I was happily going to finish 2nd or 3rd, until he crashed me while i was in the air, and pushed me to the tower, where i dropped into the lava pool. But the good news were N64 Mario Circuit (or was it raceway).

 Ah no I don't to VG Prediction league at the moment. The last entry was just a mistake,  I looked at the source code of it to do some forms of the bot ;)

Well I through TWROO from the map a couple of times, and every damn time he was just ahead of me some seconds later. That is really anoying. Esp. if you land in the mud after throing him off the course. :( 

Haha, by the way, i enjoyed so much every time someone hit you or NJ5 with bullet bill.
