Overview
Hello and Welcome to the Karting Kup. The is a series of weekly tournaments that will test your skill in MarioKart Wii. Each week, a new set of rules will be generated that apply only to that specific tournament.After every tournament,the overall standings chart will be updated up to that event.
Rules
Each tournament has a new set of rules (tracks,characters,vehicles). However, several main rules apply that should be followed for each tournament. These are stated below.
-NO hacking/glitching, this will result in an automatic DQ for the tourney and banning you from future ones (GBA BC3 does not count as a glitch)
-Any violations of the rules (Characters/Vehicles/Tracks) will result in the score for that GP
being divided in half. (rounded down if odd number)
-If you arrive late, too bad. No extra points will be awarded for late entries into Kups.
-DQs also happen, but there is no compensation if you have a bad connection, so no extra points are added if you DQ. Try to rejoin next GP. Sorry!
-No guests are allowed to join. There is a possiblity of the two people on the same Wii working together, so only one person per Wii please.
-Have fun!!

Anoyne wishing to join the tourneys need only to leave their Mii Name and FC and I will add you to the list. Each tourney will have 12 starters and 5 reserves, so there is a lot of room for fun!

Tourney Day
On the day of the tourney a final PM will be sent out 30 minutes before the tourney to all 12 participants and 5 reserves telling them about the start time. The room will be opened 15 minutes before the start of the tourney.
If by 5 minutes before the start, all 12 participants are not present, then a PM will be sent to each of the 5 reserves, the last spots being taken on a first-come-first-serve basis. The tourney will start ON TIME unless some extra reserves need time to come. The maximum time that a start can be delayed is 15 minutes, so please arrive promptly.
All Star Events
These special kups are held after every fifth tournament (5,10,15, etc.). They are special invitationals that are only for the best Karting Kup Participants, and the only Kups that come with a graphics-based reward (sig/userbar).
FAQs (for lolz)
How do I get selected?
You may notice the Overall Standings post located below. The top 12 members on this list will be invited to participate. So, after the fifth Karting Kup, the top 12 people in points are automatically invited to the first all-star Kup.
What if some of the Top 12 can't participate?
Then a PM will be sent to the 13th, 14th,15th, etc in the standings. I will ask for an RSVP a couple of days before the All-Star Kup in case this happens.
Any other rules?
Well, the standings don't reset after the first all-star event, the second all-star Kup will contain the top 12 members from Kups 1-10, not just 6-10...
Record Keeping
I am taking pictures after every GP for the sake of records, however if anyone wants to take video or pictures of their own feel welcome to it.
*Special Notice*
Recently my camera has been disconnecting from my computer when I try to upload photos. If my camera is behaving I will post the pictures on the thread. Otherwise, I will just use them as evidence and type results. Until I get it fixed, if anyone can take pics it would be very helpful.
Prizes
Sorry, but there is no graphics prize (userbar, sig, banner, etc.) for winning a regular tourney. Winners of a regular tournament will earn member status in the chatroom. However, For all-star events (see section above), there will be a userbar/sig given out, as well as moderator status in the chat.
GOOD LUCK!
