notes:
Mendez and Flamin Skull failed to show up so they're still in the championship but they have received 0 points. A very sad thing we couldn't make it as planned. We're looking for you guys to take over this unlucky start.

notes
This time was quite fun. 9 people showed up and the cups have been the typical Mario kart mess one would expect. The top positions seems already established, but there are several challengers for the third place.
This is turning out fun, despite my really bad performances (I finished last 3 times in a row during the Leaf Cup).
We'll see how it will end, most likely next week.

np Flamin Skull +0 0
np The shoemaker +0 0

notes
Unfortunately Jogurt lost connection after a couple of races, that's sad we only had one cup left and there was no chance to join again.
Anyway, the championship is over, the podium is for KnucklesSonic8, Trapster and Tull; congratulations to them and to anyone who participated.
I hope you enjoyed it as I did hosting it.

See you for the next edition or...something else.

Rules
- Choose the track to race on, according to the regular order of the tracks in the cup we're racing, so that everyone selects the same track.
- At the end of the cup, take note of your final position and points.

General Infos
I (neuzd) am hosting the championship, so once you're connected enter the room I created.
We'll be waiting for everyone to join before starting, while we're keeping ourselves in touch in the chat room, we can decide to start if someone didn't show up for too long.
Don't be too late and if you can it will be wise to connect to the chat some times earlier.

Good luck to everyone (me in particular, after reading your taunts I got pretty worried).

[KnucklesSonic8]

[psxbackupuk]

Speak laters

[KnucklesSonic8]

[psxbackupuk]

good race guys

cya for the next one

[Jogurt the Yogurt]

Here are my stats. I did better than I thought I would! (I mean, I came in last, but not by as much as I thought I would. You guys are all Mario Kart players, and I don't even like the game!)

5th (3pts), 6th (+1 = 4pts), 5th (+3 = 7pts), 7th (+0 = 7pts).

[KnucklesSonic8]

My Results - Mushroom Cup:
Luigi Circuit - 1st, +15 (15)
Moo Moo Neadows - 3rd, +7 (22)
Mushroom Gorge - 2nd, +10 (32)
Toad's Factory - 5th, +3 (35)
OVERALL: 2nd - 35 Points.

I'm still ticked I won the First Two in Flower only to have the room terminated. >_>

[Tull]

Mushroom Cup: 22
Doh forgot about final position.

[KnucklesSonic8]

Once everyone post theres, we'll see where you fall. If memory serves, I think you were 4th/5th?
