I played Mario Kart Super Circuit for a while, but I stopped once it became overloaded with stupid "tricks".
If I compete on another game it'll probably be Mario Kart Double Dash (unless F-Zero GX is any good).

It's Amusement Vision developing the damn game! Of course it's going to be good! You might not like it though

The reason I probably won't be competing on F-Zero GX is because everybody says it plays like F-Zero X. I don't like X because it rewards you for driving into walls, it reminds me of Gran Tourismo 3 (or any GT game) where it is sometimes faster to just slam into the wall than to brake. I prefer time trial racing to be more straight forward and reward you for keeping a tight racing line (like MV).

well F-zero X is about tight racing lines very much too (especially some tracks like mute city). The "hitting walls" isnt some kind of random way of gaining speed, it requires a lot of skill and getting angles right and such. Sure, if you only want those tight racing lines, stick to MV

Yep, and this is something I am HIGHLY aware of. Trust me in that 
Also an -ish tournament coming up: "We will be holding 3 online qualifiers for Warcraft III: one in mid-July (held on Lordaeron), one in Mid-August (held on Azeroth), and one in Mid-September (held on Northrend) with the qualifiers spanning 2 days each. Each of these three qualifiers will feature thousands of dollars in cash and prizes distributed amongst the top 16 place finishers. The top 5-12 place finishers (still undecided) will receive invitations to the world finals in January where they will be competing for over $600,000 US in cash and prizes and on worldwide broadcast TV."

wish nintendo would do that for F-zero

I'm on Mariokart64.com as well doing not too bad at about 70th place in Nsc and 20th place in sc.
I'm on N64 Hiscores as well (which btw is now at http://www.geocities.com/n64highscores/ ) I'm killing Cruis'n USA there not too bad on SM64 and Zeldas games. If you checked the site recently Jordan you'll be ranked 2nd and not 4th still having the WR too.

In Pok駑on Snap I have a WR: 8000 points for Pikachu (the best possible score).
I'm also highly competitive in SSBM, especially the Event Matches.

I am in the Super Mario Kart competition around the 50th in the PAL players list (austrian champion, but what else ).
I was also in the Wave Race Blue Storm PAL competition of Daniel Viebrock a.k.a. supreme. I was on 2nd place in time attack and on 2nd place in stunt mode, but the competition was shut down some months ago.
I am only active on fzerocentral, trying to improve my times to stay below the 30.00 mark in the universal rankings.

I was there too (1st place in time attack/Stunt mode).
I'm also active in the PD competition (79th place in time) and SMS competition (2nd place at the moment).
