On my way home, it should take an hour to get there. If you could give me a couple of minutes before starting...

Well, that was pretty good for my first Mario Kart 8 DX battle mode journey  

@S.C.G you are "Sam", right? If so, there will be a lovely highlight coming soon. I think you know what I'm talking about  

[drahkon]

Here we go. 

Spoiler

@S.C.G We made this one personal...

 

What a way to end the match:

 

Sorry @viceview51, no idea how I got out of this one  

 

Perfect timing:

 

And now it's time to show you all how much I love @martinist:

That last one...I had to do it. Saw you being hit by one of my banana peels (I assume) in the bottom left corner...I just had to hit you again.

Not bad, not bad. But I think I can do one better.

Note: The above scores don't show any bonus points.

@drahkon did the Loser's Gambit this week and nominated @BowserBasher, who he beat in each GP, gaining an extra 4 points per GP. That with his solid performance rockets him up the table. We'll have to see if he can maintain it during the first volatile few weeks.

@RedShell is using tilt controls!?

[BowserBasher]

OMG. What’s with all the lightning tonight.

OK, so when I powered up my Switch just before 8pm, my 8BitDo/Wii U Pro Controller combo decided to absolutely freak out. No matter how many times I reset it, the control sticks just wouldn't stop moving all over the place!  So I had no choice but to grab my Joy-Cons and use tilt controls as the sticks on those both of those also suffer from severe drift. On the final GP I tried using regular controls with the Joy-Con anyway, it was horrible but I still did better than with tilt.

Anyway, if I can't get my Pro controller working I'm gonna have to skip on tonight's Smash session (the sticks on my Joy-Con don't register taps) or I'll just spectate.

[martinist]

I hate this game sometimes. This was one of those times...

[RedShell]

There is of course 1 benefit to playing with Joy-Con, I get the capture button back:
