Not a bank holiday here, so I'm sure I'll be on.

Question about the lobby. Last time I joined I ended up in a practice race or something and am not sure if, had I stayed in there, I would not have made it into the actual tournament?

Yeah, it's best to wait until exactly 21:00, Sandy - at that time the "race flag" symbol will appear next to the tournament name to show that it is open. If you're ever "kicked out" or if no-one else is in the lobby, use the "join friend" option and select someone who is already racing.

See you on the track! I believe that Grum is deffo joining, too.

If you join before 21:00, you will have practice races, but will be kicked out at 21:00. This will make it difficult to rejoin in time to start the tournament at the same time as everyone else.

The best way to rejoin if you ever get kicked out the lobby is to join through Friends. Now might be a good time to add a few GRcade members?

...it'd be great to see you back on the track, Pedz! I know that you get frustrated by the action but maybe just chill and race :-).

I certainly don't get as vexed with this game as much as I do other games. I'm aware the majority of it is purely luck based, and whether or not everyone spams you with blue shells or lightening bolts :lol:

I was playing online with randoms and was basically coming first in every game, then at the 3rd lap there was a constant stream of lightening, blue shells and red shells up my arse, usually ending with me in 4th or 5th :cry:

The only thing I get annoyed with is that I haven't figured out my best kart. I still notice people streaming ahead. Often nearly half a lap ahead of the rest of the racers.

Yeah, you gotta let nothing get you down. Not even a red shell, green shell, bomb snipe, lightning, flattening, knocked-off-trackening will have me raging at the unfairness.
Sixteen races of Baby Park on the other hand...
