Anyone in any other video game leagues?

If so, for which game, and how are you doing?
Me: 4th place over at N64 High Scores' F-1 World Grand Prix competition, but I do have a WR. =) Just got started yesterday by submitting times, looking good.

I really love real time strategy games, and im wanting to really get into the PC game Warcraft 3, but Im waiting for the expansion to get back. I was ranked about #300 on the europe server, but when you get inactive, you drop really fast. Dont compare that to a ranking on f-zero central . Its quite different from submitting times, its more a man to man powertest. There are also more than 1000x more players, usually with about 40-50 K players playing online at the same time .
The really competetive games im into (not that im very competetive in all of them) are starcraft: brood war, Warcraft III Reign Of Chaos, and of course F-zero X. I really love them all for their depth and gameplay.

I'm listed at http://mariokart64.com, and a couple games at Nintendo 64 High Scores (http://www.angelfire.com/vt2/Vulpex/n64hs/) ... Pokemon Snap, Cruisin' USA (horrible times; and I don't own the game anymore to improve them). I played Runescape (http://runescape.com) pretty heavily for about 6 months, climbing into the top 2000 overall.

I am at SMK and MK64. Thats pretty much it, but if some one can find a Tube Slider Competition (English), I would be very happy. Kortevensky Everett Jackson Edit: I won't list my stats for MK64 and SMK, Because they suck so bad, I wouldn't waste my breath.  KEJ

I only compete here, but I may think of joining other places, like the Mario Kart 64 Players site. Maybe a few of the games in the n64 high scores site as well. 
For Mario Kart 64 I think I'd be mostly in the bottom 100 section. Very few of my times would get me to the top 100. Well excpt for one, Rainbow Road Shortcut which at the moment would get me into the to 50 I believe. ^^
As for the N64 High Scores site. I'd be in Those Mario Party Games I've almost got WR for Slot Car Derby 3 from MP2.
I'd be at the bottom for the fast button pressing ones though :-p
Anyone know of a Mario Party 4 Record site?

I was competing on the shenmue official online rankings (for the old arcade game machines, hang-on and space harrier). don't remember well. top20?
I was sooo addicted to these games (also to outrun and afterburner in shenmue2)
aaaahhh. shenmue...... all time favorite. too bad we'll probably never see the #3.

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
