Main Tournament
First Round- 8 Tracks
Championship Round- All tracks, in order.
- Four players will compete against each other in an 8 or 16 cup race. Order will be decided beforehand.
- 150 CC Mode
- Characters will be chosen in order with the higher seed getting first pick. Characters are to remain the same throughout each round.
- The top seed in each group will be asked to host.
- At the end of the final round, each team will post a screenshot. Preferably another person in the group will "Yeah!" the post to confirm it.
- Winners will be determined on a point system based on each race result.
- 1st Place- 5 points
- 2nd Place- 3 points
- 3rd Place- 2 points
- 4th Place- 1 point
- Tiebreaker (if necessary) will be determined by who has the most race wins.
- The winner from each round will move on to the next round.
- Have fun
- Work within your group to find a good time for everyone. The early rounds should only take ~20-25 minutes to complete.
- No hacks or cheating otherwise. Regular short cuts like the cave in Koopa Troopa Beach is fair game.
- Try to settle any issues that come up among the group. Involve staff if a consensus cannot be reached.
- If a disconnect happens, try to pick up where you left off unless everyone agrees to restart. If you are only one or two races in then a restart might be a better option. If you are getting close to the end, try to pick up where you left off. You can submit multiple screenshots as long as they equal the correct number of races. It might be suggested to periodically take screenshots after each round in case any issues comes up.
- If someone has the ability to stream on Twitch that would be welcomed, but not required. Hopefully some people will save clips of the action to share. Who doesn't love watching last second Mario Kart pain?
There will be badges for those that come in first, second, and third. Images are TBD. Also there may be something else included
