Mario Kart Wii Online Races: #16: Curse You Shorcut!

Make sure annotations are on!
Thanks to Nintendo for making MKW and Jughead870/Rich Petty for giving me the idea to do this.

What can I say about this race. It was pretty much a living hell in a place that looks like hell. Rich Petty and EC2 Jorge(SlamThatHam) are back for more mayhem. While he did okay Jughead and I ended up losing quite a bit of races, and as you can see my VR has drastically lowered.

1. 0:59 Not that they can't win the race normally! It's just that they choose not to!

2. 1:31 Meaner than Mr. Mean?

3. 3:25 For 9999 VR, anything goes!

@DarkMario1000 1. In a lot of cases they just can't win normally.

2. No.

3. Those desperate, desperate souls.

[Jughead870]

Now I remember this session. This was in the second group of the night after FY[?]SςreeM™ hack-attacked us in the first one. I did record a race from that first group when you were King Boo with the Honeycoupe.

[shrooby]

I look forward to seeing it. : ) Both of us seemed to be having bad luck over and over again in those races.

[COWSREPIC]

when was this recorded? if it was recently i think EC2*Snou deleted me :(

[shrooby]

This was recorded on Sunday.

[Jughead870]

Serves you right. I only wish there could have been a barrier in the way to prevent him from making the shortcut. It's so cheap and unfair to those who actually play the game right.

[SalamenceFightsBack]

Man that race was just OMG

[MiniVoltar]

I was on wfi and i was on world wide, and there were 12 people playing. 9 people were playing as Funkey Kong! God! He's not that popular.

Oh and also I did the shortcut in 49 seconds. (Online)

@shrooby

1. True, true…

2. Again, true (though I've never raced with him)

3. Desperate peeps are desperate, especially when Nintendo® doesn't give you alot of points after hitting 6.5k VR for these reasons:

a. Number of Stars vs an Opponent's

b. Number of VR vs an Opponent's (obviously)

c. Ranking vs an Opponents, which then gets distributed through a + b

That race is EPIC! Make a video sooner!

[SuperYoshi1141]

2:25 EPIC.

I realized something kinda irritating. The shorcut in Grumble during the time trial works perfectly. Easiest shortcut. But when playing online, that sht does not work with me. Its like me character is a little slow and won't make it fully across. Has anyone else had this problem?

[SlamThatHam]

HEH you recorded it? wow I remember these races they were fun.

[tommyfor2932]

I SEE ME!

Grumble Vulcano Shortcut sucks. I meet a few people, who spam Grumble Vulcano over and over. I wish, they would not do that Shortcut.
