[jamie60615]

that last few seconds during the coconut mall race is pretty awesome

[seanMmaguire1]

this fucking brutal a person cant go 10 seconds without being hit by some shit

[mamatteo99]

very good!

[AriEmeraldstar]

How do you unlock that kart you're using? It looks pretty good!

[Overhazard]

@AriEmeraldstar What, the Sprinter? I believe that comes after unlocking at least 8 fast staff ghosts.

[jasmin8ter2010]

@Overhazard THAT unlocks Baby Luigi. Sorry, I know. Hey that means you have the Tiny Titan unlocked.

[Brendon411Beast]

epic fail lol on the 1st 1

[boratjuice]

yo i need a buddy can you plz add me?

[Thundershark100]

how u get stars?

[Overhazard]

To get star-ranks, you need to have at least a 1-star rank in every Mario GP cup.

[Thundershark100]

wot duz GP stand for

[Overhazard]

GP stands for "Grand Prix."

[SuperSuperLumaLogan0]

@Overhazard Plus, in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. Starting from episode 98 (or 99) is the WRGP, which stands for, World Riding Grand Prix. In other words, World Riding Duel Grand Prix. Team 5D's won!! Which is Akiza, Yusei, Jack, Crow, Luna and Leo, plus Bruno who is dead in episode 145 (or 144)!

[krawzking]

does he still hold tournamnts? and if he oes how do i get in them, how do i get into an tournament?

[Overhazard]

Nope. They're done. They're over.

[linksocarina]

is it me or does the screen have a red/ orange tint?

[Overhazard]

Some games have strange tints, though I don't think Mario Kart Wii has one. It's constantly in soft focus though, which is weird.

[blizzpokecho]

how do i enter these cups?

[CaramelldansenxD]

I just figured out that you could perform a stunt on the escalator rails a week ago...xD I'm slow.

[Overhazard]

Nah, it's not obvious. Coconut Mall is absolutely packed with trick opportunities.

[tintinytdj]

You can also do it on these orange-yellow like rails on wario-gold mine.

(these on the side of the road, one of the first curves)

[superaxel23]

ya luigi rules

[weavile102]

nice symallie in the description (hit like a pinball) XD

[panther2598]

How can I get into those cups?

[EarthyPoetGrrl]

who likes luige

[jolteonown]

wow u lasted 2/3 of the first race before even using an item. that was a definite downfall for you. and if im not mistaken, u only actuallly used 1 item!

[Overhazard]

That's how it usually is for close races like these where I'm behind: Everybody gets all the Item Boxes before I reach that spot.

[Artrocks93]

Aww... Luigi sounded so sad after the first race

[Mistertbones]

That's Mama Luigi to you!

[vinisupergato]

lol n fez drift nenhuma vez e ainda ganhou o_o

[Tykeeyo]

What do prefer? An inwards drifting bike or an outwards drifting bike?

[Briners2021]

Karts

[Tykeeyo]

I didn't ask if you preferred karts did I? No.

[randomyoshi]

Most of the time, I think Mario Kart has to do with luck. :P

[Azurekate]

Here's a tip that might help you out. If you ever get on the wrong escalator (the one that's descending) drive onto the red hand-rest thing that borders it.

[Overhazard]

You can drive straight onto the hand rests from the escalator? I didn't know that. (I knew they counted a sjumps though, as I've seen the Expert Ghost do it.)

[Azurekate]

Yes. You simply drive onto them like you would a ramp.

[TemaShika24]

The red-set has the same material as the Coconut Mall short cut. It slows you down quite a bit.

[0HellsZargon0]

The only disappointment is that I couldn't be there. Settling in at Uni and forgetting to bring a TV sure has it's downsides. :P

[Overhazard]

I thought my coming to university was pretty late, considering many started three weeks ago.

[TemaShika24]

Wait...why was my name in a red outline when everyone had a blue outline?

[Overhazard]

I don't know. When everyone was arriving, it said that your location is Japan. Japanese games are udnerlined in red.

[TemaShika24]

Hmmm, I have the Japanese version, so if that's the case...

[milr69]

Eh, you call yourself "unlucky", but you made mistakes that set you up to be "bashed around". I don't think that you were unlucky; only that you had some poor driving at parts, no offense.

[Overhazard]

Really? Could you tell me some of the things I did? I could hope to know how to get better.

[milr69]

On your last vid, you hit the Shy Guy crab, and didn't use your Rearview to see where the BB was coming from and what direction to go in order to avoid it.

End of Toads Factory - you trick off the small hills to bump into the wall setting you up to get hit by the last second BB.

[milr69]

Coconut Mall - you (almost) run into a car and have to slow down as a result, and you get starred. Also I noticed that you didn't BB through the sc. If you had, you would have been 1st instead of 2nd and hadn't been Redded by 3rd. Also, it's better to go around the plant than trick off of it right before the boost and turn where the cars are, and you shouldn't be tricking off of the fountain at the beginning either, both of those are for items only, not a faster line. :P

msgwas2long :P

[Overhazard]

Heh, items are why I play Mario Kart. I try to go for as many items as possible for offense and defense. I'll keep that in mind when playing Time Trials, however.

I didn't even know a Bullet Bill was coming, and by the time I heard it, I couldn't react in time. Do people rapidly press the rearview button, or do people hold it down? If I keep looking back for too long, I fall off the course or get hit by something in front of me.

[Overhazard]

Oh, I took a look at the other video again. Heh, looks like it wasn't about reaction time as it was that I forgot you can look back.

I see what you mean though; these are just normal judgment errors for me. It happens with everything I do. It's a part of me that can't be fixed. (Kind of like how, no matter how advanced--or simple--a math test is, I'll always get about 85% on them.) Thanks for going through the trouble to point them out.

[ShadowWolfTJC]

Say, how can you look behind you with just the Wii Wheel anyways? I've been trying to figure that out ever since I've started practicing with it.

[Overhazard]

Huh? You're using the Wii Wheel now? Are you planning the next weekend's races to be Wii Wheel only?

Anyway, to look backwards, you press the A button.

[ShadowWolfTJC]

Thanks for the information. I'll try it out next time I practice.

Anyways, the Wii-Wheels only tournament won't be until next weekend. (The weekend after this upcoming weekend, which would host the Terra Cup.)

[Overhazard]

Of course, unless you've got polydactly on your left hand, this means you might have trouble holding an item behind you and looking backwards simultaneously.

[dembonez19]

Wow, I didn't realize so many people chose Sprinters and Honeycoupes. You, Christina, and Vivian all used the Sprinter while Katie, Henry, and I chose the Honeycoupe.

You definitely made up for your last place finish. During the first two races, you could already tell these would be close.

And just look at all that gold! We're quite a sparkly group. lol!

[TemaShika24]

I was the only Blue Falcon...

[Overhazard]

A winning streak is something I know I can never keep up in Mario Kart Wii.

I was avoiding using the Jetsetter, since that's simply the kart I do the best with.

[4real321]

You did very well in Coconut mall. :D Nice Job

[abridgedfan]

lol wow. you really got slammed in that first race. probably the 2nd most unluckiest race I've seen (the first is me, of course :)

[Overhazard]

We unlucky people have got to stick together, I suppose. Or not, lest an anvil falls on everybody's heads.

[KHFinalSora]

Video is no longer available?

[KHFinalSora]

Never mind lol

[Overhazard]

I just uploaded this. Give the video some time to stabilize.

[Psyduckoid]

lol that was great.

[TemaShika24]

Good job. I didn't realize you were pushed around so much. Much worse then me. :(

[Overhazard]

From what I'm told, everyone who wasn't playing as a heavyweight got pushed around like crazy.

[TemaShika24]

Well, there were some Dry Bowsers and Funky Kongs. I was pushed by item users. I was using Baby Daisy, so I got pushed like I was a feather.

The Bullet Bill at the end of Toad's Factory was mine...sorry...

[Overhazard]

Oh, so you're [RP]James? You got 1st place in Toad's Factory, and you remained in 1st place overall on the first half of the races.

[TemaShika24]

I wavered through 4th and 6th for the remainder of the cup. 1st was because of the Bullet Bill luck. :)

Yes, I was [RP]James, but I'm thinking about changing it to [RP]Tyler. James is getting a little old.

[Overhazard]

You still had a strong showing in Coconut Mall, and you still placed ahead of me overall in the end, getting 5th place out of 9.

[TemaShika24]

Meh, I guess I have to thank the speed boosting items. Or else, I'd be 9th every time.

I'm surprised how there wasn't a signal Blue Shell in this cup.

[Overhazard]

Yes, there were. I saw at least one Blue Shell in Delfino Square and one in Maple Treeway.

I'm usually finding myself ganged upon towards the end of races. People use up whatever items they've been holding onto, and I wind up as their collateral damage.

[TemaShika24]

Yeah, you were ganged up on a lot. :(

I didn't see them at least.

Christina and I battled it out on Delfino Plaza.

I hit her with a star, and then she came and whacked me with a Bullet Bill.

[TemaShika24]

Also, I was the only one without a star.

[dembonez19]

Ugh! That was you who passed me at the very last second! Grr. I was so looking forward to coming in first. lol.

[TemaShika24]

On which course? Toad's Factory?

=P Oh well. If items were off, that position would have been yours.

[dembonez19]

lol. It's fine. I should know by now to NEVER get comfortable during a race, no matter how close to the finish line I am. Watching this now, I am so shocked at how close everyone was at the very end of Toad's Factory.

[Rinsting]

First Everything. Vivian seems amazing.
