Let's get this road on the show! All friend codes from the friend code thread are included below.  All players should try and add everyone! If you missed your chance to add it to the friend code thread, you can add it here.

We should try and play in a private room, so if you don't see one created, feel free to create one yourself!

Official WiFi Night Rules and Procedures

The process is made of four sequential threads that will show up (stickied) in this forum.

Thread 1: Day voting and game nomination. Users will vote for all days that they are able to play on in a poll. Thread responses will collect game nominations.
Thread 2: Game voting. A poll that consists of each game that was nominated in the previous thread. Players each vote for as many games as they are willing and able to play on the day that was selected in the previous thread
Thread 3: Friend code collection. All (and only) participating players will post their friend code for the chosen game in this thread. This is so people can start updating their friend lists ahead of time.
Thread 4: Gameplay chat thread. This thread shows up on the day of and is used to chat about the action as it is happening.

There are only a few special rules regarding this process.

The same game can not be chosen for two consecutive months. This will force us to experience at least a little bit of variety.

The same day of the week can not be chosen for two consecutive months. People often have regular work schedules that keep them from playing on certain days. It would suck for them if one of those days was chosen every single month.

This should go without saying, but all forum rules apply to every thread involved in the WiFi night.  Don't be a jerk.

Hey guys... I might get something to eat, and when I come back, Join in.  I don't have a friend code ready to go yet, and I'm not the best, but we'll have fun.  Also, I'm going to join the NWR chat and see if there's any commotion there.

Edit:  Wow... I think there's no one in the chat room playing the game.  We'll have to fix that once I have some dinner or something.  I'll post my FC soon, as soon as I retrieve it.

Post by: Mop it up on August 08, 2009, 09:49:24 PM
I don't understand why we are doing Mirror Mode
Because the class is randomly selected, although 50cc is NEVER chosen. It is believed (though not confirmed) that the average VR of all the players in the room make it more likely to select a certain class, so if all players have a high amount then Mirror is more likely to appear.

Also, why am I the only one racing with a Mii? :)
Because it is MARIO Kart, not Mii Bike.  :P

Nah, I'm not particularly a fan of Mario Kart for some reason.  I loved Double Dash and 64, but the DS and Wii versions just don't seem right to me.  I was just going to play to support the team, or NWR, or something like that.

Mario Strikers Charged
I don't like it that much although I've never played an online friend match. Something tells me this isn't the type of game I'd want to play with you for various reasons.

Battalion Wars Wii
I've barely played this too, only once online during the official Wi-Fi night. The co-op is pretty fun but there are only four missions, so the replay comes from trying to earn the best rank.

SSB: Brawl
Hate it.

Mario Kart
Favourate Wii game, too bad you missed it. Maybe some other time.

Animal Crossing
Still waiting...  ;)

I don't own the others.

Well, if you like the game then that probably means you're skilled at it. And if you're skilled at it then that probably means you'd play competitively. Maybe not abuse-the-exploits competitive, but always-do-what-it-takes-to-score competitive. Playing a game head-to-head isn't a good idea. Besides, I'd rather play something I actually like.

Fair enough. I was expecting you to say i'm an exploit abuser. I'm not that skilled at the game actually, i've been stuck at one of the cups for the longest time and i'll probably never get passed it. The game is more fun when playing 2 on 2 though, and i suppose i CAN be a little competitive if it were just going to be 1v1 but I'm not competitive usually. I don't find much fun in that, its just a game.

I could never complete the final cup (there are only three, I'm guessing it's the same one you couldn't beat), or actually even win a single game in it. I ended up just downloading a save file from GameFAQs so I could have all of the characters, stadiums, and options.

I don't think you're the type to use the exploits, at least not in a friend match. It's kind of necessary if you're playing random matches and the other player is using them, because the only real way to counter is to use them yourself and hope you end up with more points. Of course, I don't really know HOW to use the exploits so there's no way I could win against somebody who does.

These days there are three types of players who play the random matches:
1. Those who use the exploits.
2. Those who score a goal and camp on the opposite side.
3. Those who spam the same cheap trick.

I don't know if I've ever come across a random player who actually scored by kicking the ball into the goal. It isn't even football anymore. It's asinineball.
