Hi Jacob. The upload failed, it appears as a corrupted highlight. Could you please send it again? (MKTV replay of GBA Ribbon Road 1:48.258)

Well that sucks. I have no way of retrieving the replay now. Why did it fail, and has something like this happened before?

Yeahs0

Played

Yes, it happens rarely (like 5 times since I started using MKTV replays last year). Are you entirely certain it's not available anymore in the Mario Kart TV mode → Recent 1/2 or Favorites? Please check once so that I know whether I should wait for a MKTV replay or make a ghost-only video.

I played 200 cc gps, so it's not in the recent, and I did not favorite the time. I'll favor every WR from here on out in case that happens again. Sorry x_x

Have fun with dRiR mate, I got what a wanted... a video to show the guys on Friday and some WRs on a retro course, as for me ... i'm completely worn out, I cant keep this nonsense up anymore XD my hands hurt, my arms are aching and my head is pounding xd

I'm done for a few days. My hands are hurting too much to play effitiently. Shame that I know I can cut another .500.

You feel my pain... Ribbon Road HURTS. But it was worth it. I CANT WAIT to show the guys the video (i'd rather not say who 'the guys' are, but it has to do with my disability) and they look up to me for my mk8 achievements. This is going to be great. I also had quite a bit of fun competing with you to be honest, your time right now... motivated me

I can't seem to PR though... ah well, good luck jacob :3

Towards the end of my play session I was always .3-.4 behind you after two laps. That's when I knew to stop. At least this isn't dDD where you were competing with the wheel. May the best player win on this one :p

Wellllll that's true, but hey, at least we're getting our own charts so I do get my dDD WR 'back'. As for me I kept getting .3 lap 1s so I also stopped then I got a tremendous ache in my hands, haha. That was a nasty surprise. Oh well, better I compete with you than the wii wheel cheat.

I also wanted to ask, do you dislike Dry Bowser? I noticed everyones still using morton and MII even though dry bowser is new and is a super heavy.

Yeahs0

Played

Same here. And how about that left thumb? Man I'm forming a massive callus after all the softdrifting I've done lol. Morton is my preferred character to use, especially for TTs. Nothing more to say. He's the Metal Mario of MK8. Wario 2nd, Dry Bowser 3rd, Bowser 4th, and Mii... ha. Rather use Baby Peach.

Yeahs1

Played

Right thumb I got really sore, the A button dug into there. My left thumb is fine XD (I use gamepad if it means anything) My arms though, it's as if ive been lifting weights all day and I had no idea it was even possible playing games unless it was my terrible posture And I understand now, my favourite will always be wario but I want to use Dry Bowser for now because he's new!

Yeahs0

Played

Haha, curse that A button. I didn't think anyone else experienced that. The palm of my right hand was also completely red, since I have to hold the controller in a very tight grip. Otherwise I feel too loose and my hands can't cooperate with fast inputs. I'll use Dry Bowser next time. Just for you. See if he gives me some good luck.

Yeahs1

Played

Haha that's very kind of you but you don't *have* to use anybody, afterall, I was just curious. I wont be here for most of Sunday so if you come back then I won't be able to fight back properly. I've tried improving all morning but no such luck. Hands still hurt. Maybe I should quit until Monday XD

Yeahs2

Played

I used mii one time on TTC because I was respecting Jak, Twi, and Demon, who were the three best players and used Mii (especially Jak). So it's no different here. I'll use Dry Bowser and Wario until I get some improvement with each :p What's your best splits btw? Mine are 36.933, 35.142, 35.089. I only get them when another lap sucks. Just look at the potential :(

Yeahs0

Played

Well they aren't that good 37.003 35.245 25.245 not sure what that equates to... but completing a run here is so hard, and a handkiller... it's like im a masochist playing these tracks but I think it wa sall worth it. I appreciate the gesture of you using Dry Bowser and Wawawaaaario XD I'm using dry bowser because I like his fire and his roars + he's new. By the way..ehh...what's a callus?

Yeahs0

Played

Callus is the thickened area of your skin caused by constant pressure. Another example is playing the guitar, because you're constantly pressing down on the strings with your fingers. Nothing special. My left thumb is just a little rougher than my right thumb now.

Yeahs0

Played

Oh so that explains the two lumps on my hand from where the gamepad has dug into me. I wonder if the bigger one is also a callus since I only got it yesterday. Thanks for explaining Jacob. I wonder if they ever go away?
