I'm Steve, and just happened to check in on this thread because of the DLC and saw you guys were playing a few rounds. Are people in for Sunday? if so, I'll try to hang out for more than a few races. Y'all are good. Or at least excellent users of the bullet bill

Yoshis and / or Shy Guys only could also work, since there are so many different color variants.

PA G&T SundayDrivers Tournament -- Week 46
START YOUR ENGINES! Week 46 races begin SUNDAY April 18th from 6 PM to 730 PM Central (7 PM to 830 PM Eastern, 4 PM to 530 PM Pacific, 11 PM to 1230 AM GMT). Come get your race on against fellow Penny-Arcaders!
Based on this week's poll results, The settings poll has been retired. I may open it back up if there is demand for it. Going forward, here are the race settings:
WARNING: If you do not have DLC Pack 1 installed, NO KART FOR YOU.
SNES CLASSIC WEEKEND
This Sunday is SNES classic characters + Pipe Frame karts ONLY.
Eligible racers for this weekend are:
Mario
Luigi
Toad
Princess Peach
Yoshi
Koopa Troopa
Donkey Kong Jr
Bowser
Metal, Pink Gold, Cat, and Tanooki variations are allowed but discouraged.
Pipe Frame karts only! You may equip whichever wheels and glider you like.
To join the tournament, simply use Search by Code on the Mario Kart 8 tournament menu, and enter the code 6987-9166-8350. You will only need to do this once -- the tournament will be saved in your favorites after you first join it. Once you have joined, you will also have access to this tournament's own Miiverse community.
Points are accumulated based on race performances during tournament hours. Everyone is capped at a maximum of 16 races each Sunday, so you won't be able to cheese your way to the top of the standings by simply doing more races than everyone else. After each tournament, I will post the standings here. This tournament will stay open until everyone gets sick of it and stops playing.
If you join the tournament outside of the designated race hours, you will be able to race against anyone else who is in the tournament lobby at the time, but your points will not count towards the official tournament standings.
There is no friend list requirement for the tournament. You can race against anybody who joins the tournament, whether they are on your friends list or not!
The tournament lasts for 1.5 hours, and everyone is capped at 16 races. Opponent shuffling is off. CPU opponents have been activated, they will help fill out the races when the room isn't full, and allow you the same point potential in every race.
As always this tournament is open to future changes -- There is a weekly poll for everyone to vote on basic race settings. If you would like to see changes that are not available via the poll, please post your suggestions in this thread.
Upcoming Tournaments
04/12 Week 45: Mirror Normal Items PRINCESSES ONLY
04/19 Week 46: 150cc Normal Items SNES RACERS + PIPE FRAME KART ONLY
Since I'm usually using Bowser I could just race as him again, but I think I'm gonna try someone else for a change. Probably Luigi, since that's who I used the most in the original Mario Kart.

That is quite the high risk maneuver.
Steve was a newcomer this week at least for a few rounds. Hopefully we haven't scared him off.
Dirk2112 returned after a few weeks off. Unluckily for him no Yoshi tracks popped up in the rotation this week.
I thought I was off to a good start with a first place win on the first track of the night. Too bad it was also my only win of the night.
Rehab was shell happy up in the clouds. Also bananas everywhere.
Corey chomped his way to victory.
Courtney proved shy guy's worth this week. Even if sometimes it was by a hair.
That's all for this week. Next week's round is going to be Cat Peach in the Cat Cruiser. I'll send some reminders again next week.

I feel like we did babies only fairly recently? My memory is butts though, I could be wrong.
If anyone has suggestions for whacky rules for this Sunday, post em!
Bowser and Koopalings only
