I'm under the impression most will choose Rosalina - since she's the heavier character.

More speed and weight is not necessarily a good thing. It does cost you acceleration and handling. Acceleration behaves strangely compared to the other stats. So you might be screwing yourself big time if you cut acceleration.

Daisy is heavier than Peach as well. So it's not clear cut as you might think.

[viceview51]

True, but on previous thursday's when there was the chance of choosing different characters with different weight - most tend to go for the heavier option.

[BowserBasher]

Well I’m gonna chose Peach just to be different. 

[RedShell]

Should be IN! for tonight.

Highlights from last time will be somewhat delayed though I'm afraid. You can blame this guy:

 

[Nicktendo]

I'm gonna try to make it tonight. There's a possibility I could be a few mins late, depends on the traffic.

Oh sure 6 red shells and a Blue! You guys are totally not over the top!

[BowserBasher]

Sorry not sorry @Glen-i

[Glen-i]

Seriously @martinist change your character. I have to discount your score for that GP now

[martinist]

@Glen-i

sorry changing now

[Glen-i]

Oh come on! @Nintendo Fan Don't you start!

[Nintendo Fan]

sorry 

[BowserBasher]

 Very pleased with that night. Even battle mode was good to me. Some highlights coming later. Many of which involve hitting @Glen-i 😆

Trust me, you weren't the only one. You would not believe the amount of barrages I got thrown at me.

[BowserBasher]

OK here we go.

 

 

[Glen-i]

That Sweet Sweet Kingdom highlight is such a beautiful moment of comedy. The timing is too perfect.

Also, the Piranha Plant on Royal Raceway was me. After your battle shenanigans, I'm not even remotely sorry.

Anyway!

 Got a feeling all 6 of those Red Shells were mine.

I definitely got 2 sets of triple reds in a row on one of the races, and I (uncharacteristically ) fired them all forwards.  

[Glen-i]

NOTE: @martinist was disqualified from this GP for not choosing the correct character throughout. Rules are rules. The scores for each individual race were readjusted. Anyone who lost to him were bumped up one place. (For example, If martinist came 3rd, everyone below that would go up one place)

So while the point totals aren't completely accurate here, the general placing is. @martinist's score is treated as if he simply didn't show for this GP.

No changes in placing here. @Nicktendo is this week's Player who made no bloody difference! I'd give you a prize, but that would actually make a difference, which I feel goes against the spirit of the title. @S.C.G makes a tremendous push by being the person who increased their average the most this week.

It's the end of the month, which means it's time for a Player's Choice night.

Me and my little bro will be in this week. He should do better this week seeing as he had to use two joycons without a controller grip last time which made it more difficult for him to play. 

[BowserBasher]

OMG. We’re gonna be famous. 

One of my highlights from last weeks league night was featured in the Nintendo VS UK Twitter moment. 

It’s the 13th one along in there.
