Vudu doesn't read my posts because he thinks I don't use the wheel. How can I tell him that I do use the wheel if he doesn't read my posts? Quite the predicament...

PM him a video of you using the wheel.

PM me the video, and i'll forward it to vudu. He won't bother reading a PM from you (i just have a feeling)

OMG

I just unlocked staff ghosts in time trials on Ghost Valley 2 and Rainbow Road. They were the last two stragglers and now I'm unlocked all 32 staff ghosts. (Hooray for Mii Outfit B!)

Talk about a freaking rush.

I was going to post something about that being easy and at most shouldn't have taken more than a couple of retrys to complete. Also something about you sucking and you should have been able to do this ages ago, but I think I'll hold my tongue.

Congratulations Vudu! Some of those staff ghosts can be a real pain, I personally hated Yoshi Fails and Shy Guy Beach.

Now your Miis can be dressed up like Peach and Mario!

EDIT: Dasmos's comment doesn't count because he doesn't use the wheel.

In my defense, I really just started this quest a few weeks ago, and I didn't have a working TV for a lot of that time.

But shut up, it was hard. If you think it's easy you're lying.

Very true. It was the second-to-last thing which I accomplished, the last being three stars. Though there's always somebody around to tell you "you suck", so I wouldn't sweat it.

I was racing in the Grand Prix tonight and Birdo cut me off. I shouted (at the top of my lungs, because I was pretty worked up by that point) **** YOU MOP IT UP!!. It took me a couple seconds to realize my mistake.

I just finished unlocking the last of the Mirror Cup unlockables. Now it's time to move onto the star unlockables. (I'm never going to even try to get 3 stars on all races.)

BTW, who is Bummers? This person is always the leader of the pack amongst my friends in time trial rankings (although I have bested him/her in a few races).

Dasmos · « **Reply #960 on:** May 13, 2009, 10:00:24 PM »

I'm pretty sure Bummers is Mop_it_up isn't it?

Most of mine are topped by NOA REGGIE's, it could be a number of people (but it's probably Mario). Also RAB and Bummers have a couple there too.

Ha ha, awesome. Though it wouldn't have been me because I'm not an aggressive player.

Bummers 'tis me. My time trial times were achieved with Funky Kong + Lame Runner or Spear, combos which I don't play my best with. Most of them are from back when I unlocked the fast staff ghosts. If the Standard Kart were a high-tier vehicle, I would be so awesome at this game... *sigh*

Stratos · « **Reply #962 on:** May 14, 2009, 12:04:50 AM »

Yeah, I can't beat ANY of your times Mop it up. You did too fine of a job. I tried my darnedest and still can't squeeze out those last seconds on the Mario Raceway 64 track to beat you.

GK · « **Reply #963 on:** May 14, 2009, 03:06:33 PM »

Yeah, I pretty much consider Mop it Up unbeatable in time trials. I just try to land 2nd or 3rd(can't beat NOA REGGIE either) on those now.

Though the challenge ghost you sent me for Toad's Factory is giving me some trouble as well. I can't pull off three perfect laps, I always mess up on one or more on that last turn.

That NOA REGGIE guy sounds like a tough competitor.

Took me several tries, a control scheme switch, as well as more tries to do that. Still have a mess up or two in that ghost I believe. Like you said, that last turn screws up momentum.

Stratos · « **Reply #967 on:** May 14, 2009, 05:21:15 PM »

Yeah, I can pull off that turn perfectly every other time now :/

Once I'm settled in my new room I'll get back to trying to beat your ghosts. Be prepared!

Who is James, is that you Vudu? I received a ghost of Yoshi Fails with a Mii named James, but nobody on my list is named James. The Mii looks similar to Vudu's Mii.

I'm sure you'll get there, just keep practicing. I sent you a ghost for that, right? Just try to mimic it exactly, then maybe see if you can find a way to change up the racing line to shave a few seconds off your time. If you can, it could also be helpful to download the ghosts of the world record holders and see if you can learn anything.

Yeah, that's me. I sent it to you by mistake. I had no idea that option was even available; I thought I was on worldwide stats and I was trying to download the record holder's ghost.

Several months ago I changed my Mii's name to vudu to avoid confusion. Weird that it still showed up as James for you.

Mop it up · « **Reply #970 on:** May 16, 2009, 09:42:30 PM »

All of your ghosts are tied to the Mii you were using at the time you set that record, so if you change your Mii then it won't be reflected on your current ghosts. If you don't want your ghosts to still be tied to "James", you will have to beat those records.

I can't send you back a kart-using ghost for Yoshi Fails, but if you are interested, here is a YouTube video of using the Standard Kart to unlock the fast staff ghost:

Before you ask, yes, I used the wheel.

vudu · « **Reply #971 on:** May 16, 2009, 11:17:17 PM »

No worries--I've since unlocked all staff ghosts, so there's no need anymore.

Mop it up · « **Reply #972 on:** May 17, 2009, 12:34:29 AM »

Good. If you've set new records on all tracks using your new Mii, then they should all be tied to "Vudu" now. Just remember this if you consider changing it again.

vudu · « **Reply #973 on:** May 17, 2009, 10:22:01 AM »

I didn't set all new records with "vudu". I had unlocked maybe 8 using my old "James" Mii.

Any way to tell which is which?

Stratos · « **Reply #974 on:** May 17, 2009, 02:54:36 PM »

What's wrong with being James on MK? I'm Nate on there and Mop it up is Bummers. I just learn who is who and remember. 'Course, I have such a pathetically small list that I wouldn't have much of an issue with remembering who is who.
