Glen-i Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 (edited) OK, the votes are in, let's begin this lengthy post. First of all, here are the results for the Hero votes. Each Vote for the Hero of Light will add 5 points to that person's GP3 score. On the other hand, each vote for the Hero of Darkness will subtract 5 points from that person's GP3 score. So here are the votes. Oh, I'm not telling who voted for who. It's up to that person whether they want to keep it secret or not. As you can see, it was remarkably close on both accounts. It's not completely clear who came on top of either category, but trust me, someone did. So let me make it clearer. With 2 votes and no Darkness votes, congratulations to @Kaepora_Gaebora! You're a stand-up bloke who everyone would love to have on their team, if only to use you as a shield... Other people who ended up in this category are @RedShell and @Dcubed. Way to go! Sorry @martinist, not one person on your team thought you were an asset. If we were playing Four Swords, you'd be that jerk who takes all 4 of the damn Treasure Chests and then throws Purple Link down a hole for giggles. Other jerky people who weren't as bad but still got caught were @punio75 and @BowserBasher. Anyway, time for some insignificant categories. Heroes of Neutrality @Clownferret and @S.C.G just couldn't decide whether they wanted to be a jerk or a saint. They ended up with the same amount of votes on both side, effectively cancelling out their scores. Heroes of Insignificance @Nicktendo and I were so ignored, we got absolutely no votes what-so-ever. Yay? With that in mind, here are the results. Black numbers indicate Points earned through placings. Blue numbers indicate points gained through team wins. Green numbers indicate points gained from Hero of Light status. Purple numbers indicate points lost from Hero of Darkness status. And here's the table. A combination of new/re-entries and those delicious bonus points have shaken things up quite a bit. Of particular note is @BowserBasher, who has dropped to being on level peggings with @viceview51. As well as @RedShell storming ahead after my absolutely atrocious showing this week and @martinist overtaking @punio75. @Nicktendo has made a remarkable catch-up to second place and could cause a serious upset before the League ends. @Dcubed also managed to make some significant ground to overtaking someone. We're halfway through my December Death Themes, so here's next week's theme. Next League Night: 14th December 8pm Group 1 @BowserBasher is host @Glen-i @BowserBasher @martinist @punio75 @viceview51 Next week's theme doesn't really need an explanation, it speaks for itself. From vehicle setup to rule combinations, nothing about this makes any damn sense! Sign up now! Edited December 8, 2017 by Glen-i 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcubed Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I would NEVER get voted Hero of Light in an actual Four Swords Adventures game, so I'm well chuffed here! I like the look of 50cc on shrooms. Next week's one should be good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viceview51 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) There's an issue, I don't have the bandwagon... I'm checking for the closest alternative. According to the Wiki only the GLA and Standard ATV share the same stats. I'm going with the Standard ATV, it's the only available to me.

BowserBasher Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Lol. I got through it all and saw the end scores but didn’t get a pic. I might though with the recording. It did all finish for me. I think our internet went cooky right at the end there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, my Switch decided to freeze so had to restart it. Intersting session tonight. I made such a spectacular fuck up on SNES donut plains, ended up boosting in the wrong direction and into the wall simultaneously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen-i Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) Quick highlight at @Dcubed's expense. (He's on the left) Anyway, here's the results. GP3 And here's the current League Table. Not much to say here this week. Except that @RedShell wins the "Didn't make a damn bit of difference" award this week. But given his high average, that's quite remarkable. So next week is the grand finale, to both my December Death Themes and 2017's League. The results look pretty much decided. Nothing short of an utter madman could disrupt this flow. Wait... Who's running the League right now? Ah... Well, isn't that a shame? Last League Night: 21st December 8pm Room 1 @BowserBasher is host @Glen-i @BowserBasher @martinist @punio75 @viceview51 No, the picture hasn't glitched up, there will be 1 GP this week. But with a big massive twist. You think you know the tracks in Mario Kart 8 by now? Well, we will see about that. This week's gimmick no-one asked for is Backwards Racing. Everyone will be reversing throughout the entire night. You go forward, you come last. I will know. Don't even try it. And you thought 50cc was slow. Here's a little maneuver that you will need in order to get through this. Pulling this off is simple, just hold the brake and accelerate button at the same time and turn, you'll spin on the spot. Another key thing to remember is that holding X lets you look behind you. No doubt important when driving backwards. You'll also need to think carefully about items, not every item is going to help you here. The tracks are all possible to do backwards without ever going off course, I made sure of that. Remember the golden rule: All progress must be done backwards. I will check MKTV afterwards, I've got nothing better to do. Sign up Now!

RedShell Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 @Glen-i, just when I thought you couldn't come up with anything crazier than the "Smart Steering" GP, you go and pull this utter insanity out of the bag! Needless to say I am very much IN! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowserBasher Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Wow. What was going on in you head @Glen-i when you thought up this one. 😋 Also can we confirm that going backwards for that amount of time won’t make the game disconnect you. I’m sure I’ve been disconnected from online races before for standing still for too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
