As many of you have seen, the site has become inactive. It has become too much for me. Unfortunately, the addition of GX pushed my manual updating system past its reasonable limits, and pushed me to new heights of stress.
Thank you to the many people who have helped make this site work so well for so long. I greatly appreciate the contributions of each and every one of you.
This system is too cumbersome (and inefficient) to teach, so I will not consider giving the site to someone else to run. It's been a great two and a half years, but it has come to an end. The site will remain for two or three months and then disappear when the domain name and the hosting package expire.
Monday [Dec-29-2003]
I think that now my life is beginning to return to normal. ^_^ The SNES update is already finished, and all of the others will also be completed today (presuming that the two timekeeping updates I haven't received as of this writing get to me sometime later today.)
9:00am EST (USA): In addition to SNES, the F-Zero X update is now finished. Please note that only the new times from the 2nd week are highlighted in blue because the database was reset after the first week. All new SNES and GX times from both weeks will be highlighted ... I'm not sure yet about MV because I haven't received that update.
11:50am EST (USA): F-Zero GX update is now online. There's always lots of action in GX, so check it out!! The GX Story Mode update is still to come, and hopefully the MV update will arrive in my inbox in time to process it today.
12:45pm EST (USA): F-Zero GX Story Mode update is finished. ^_^
Sunday [Dec-21-2003]
I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but last night I was informed that I have to work BOTH of my off days, so there is no possible way I can do an update this week. The regular weekly updates will resume next week on Monday, December 29th.
Tuesday [Dec-16-2003]
All of the weekly stats updates are completed. I've also added last week's news (dated Tuesday, December 9th to avoid any confusion with this week's upcoming news reports). In Universal, please note a correction ... Sugi should have been added to the GX column last week but was not. His stats are now correct, so he made a nice gain this week despite not submitting new PRs.
Monday [Dec-15-2003]
I apologize for not keeping up the site very well lately, December is an incredibly busy month for me. I work long hours because I work for the U.S. Postal Service, so we are sorting and delivering the many many Christmas gifts that come through our service. I can't get the update done this evening, I hope to process everything tomorrow. I also want to apologize to our news writers because I completely forgot to post last week's news updates here. Rest assured that once Christmas is behind us, I will be able to keep everything on a more regular schedule.

I could have put here a big bold headline, but I just stay with the facts as always and I know that DVM has already some new GX times, so I expect that he will take the throne back next week. Here's the report:
Roland Pristauz continued his efforts on GX and gained 7 positions, which was enough to take the lead in the universal chart! At this point I want to thank some people: DVM for giving me excellent strats for all F-Zero games, JKT for his awesome X videos and dive explanations, MJH for keeping me active on X in the last months and Dave Crawford for putting up the best internet ranking website ever!
Just for fun I decided to make this chart for comparison:
Game.........Position DVM/RP........Matchup DVM/RP
GX................31.......23...................20.......32
X...................5.........4..................19/4.....49/4
MV................13.......17...................19.......23
SNES.............2.........4....................28........2
Total.............................................86/4...106/4
Now let's take a look at the other active players, they all gained or lost positions due to the new rules, so I will neglect that part and just focus on the activity.
Wouter Jansen (4th): GX (+27, 26th),
Logan West (5th): SNES (33rd),
Bret Stiles (11th) was active on GX (+9, 9th) and X (+28, 56th),
Ryan Jenning (16th): GX (41st),
Ricardo Mendes (22nd): GX (81st), X (+2, 80th), MV (+10, 84th), SNES (+1, 83rd),
Jason Bradt (26th): GX (22nd), MV (+76, 109th),
David Scott Forbes (33rd): X (91st), MV (+16, 112th), SNES (84th),
Nicholai Main (38th): X (+8, 126th).
