"I have studied the green shell for over a decade.. I've got at least 11 ways to snipe you with this one right now. You never even stood a chance."

[@mincrmatt12]

The reason you got a 5-second bullet bill and green shell in 7th was the fact that your own game/screen decides the items and bullet bill lengths, and communicates through a proxy to nintendo's (well, now wiimfi, but whatever) servers, and to the other racer's wiis. And the reason teleporting happens is the fact that the cpu drives until the other wii's tell your wii where the racer is

[@sharedaccount8247]

TWD98 typical lagswitcher case.

[@danpakko]

Hi

[@headsetsonlysbro]

TWD98 the reason why you got 8th on 2nd race because the game keeps track time NOT the sever. The sever most of time tells what time on each players time is like time trail. So when they finish the race your timer is lower then the 2 players menses you beat them, is even stranger the game don't relay people who in last place and stop them all does stop you and the time.

[@TWD98]

It might have to do with the leaf piles and them giving out tons of shrooms/bananas maybe reaching some item limit for how many items can be on the ground at once resulting in it giving you an item that cannot be dropped on the ground (a mushroom). That would be my guess.

[@idk-_-]

Wow this is an old comment...

[@thewillster18]

Idk but I’ve always liked this video, thought it was so interesting. I don’t remember anything like this happening when I was a kid

[@abbyjack100]

At 4:58, Rosalina almost got WR :O

[@Pjohnson12995]

Troy had like a 5 second lag start, so the Rosalina's time was 5 seconds slower than what it appeared to be. (It actually took me a long time to figure that out. I thought before that they almost got world record as well lol)

[@zlecti]

[@ScyHigh]

[@Pjohnson12995]

YoshiKart CCX Troy's timer started counting when Troy started the race, but everybody else started about 5 seconds before Troy, so Troy's timer was essentially 5 seconds behind what it should have been. So instead of the "1:45" that showed on Troy's screen, that Rosa got like a 1:50 (which is still amazing for a normal race lol). It's kind of confusing to explain :P

[@dannym2804]

I think what happened in the second race is that after the game couldn't get a stable connection, it replaced you with a cpu until the game got a connection on other people's screen, so you were probably teleporting when your game got a connection on other people's screens. Oh yeah, everyone you fought was a cpu for the most part. I'm guessing that near the end of the match, the game still couldn't get a stable connection, so the cpu was still up on other people's screens, and it managed to finish before you, so the game gave you the cpu's points.

Troy's official track should be maple treeway. This is where the "BAM shock dodge originated. Troy had this awesome race on it. And he once had a world record on maple treeway.

[@PR0WN3D]

3:55 when you said you got it by the bomb car there was actually a bomb right in front which exploded as the bomb car exploded which you didn't see but that's the thing hit you. Figured this out after the video being out for 6 years

[@charmandergamer1287]

I hate to be that guy y'know but I'm fairly sure he was looking behind him using the rear view function, that's why it looks like the explosion is in front of him

I remember watching this years ago and thinking this was insane then, but I came back here because this literally happened to me for the first time last night. Everyone was teleporting all over the place, and I got 1st almost every race on my own screen but almost never on anyone else's. So bizarre.

[@tomysshadow]

My guess - Mariokart 7's four month old birthday in Japan (notice video upload date, because in Japan it was one day later and MK7 was released on Dec. 1 there) was bogging down their servers.

[@hellamase]

THE NOSTALGIA

[@AlexDatcoldness]

I think that your internet router/modem was struggling to connect to the main internet, possibly because lots of other people in your street was using the internet a lot as well. If that is not the case, the I don't know why that happened. Just my best prediction.

[@Intrufusion]

You were placed eight on the second race because the game actually calculates your final ranking based on how much time the race took you, so they must have took longer.

[@Major_Mason]

I guess the game on the client end takes YOUR place number at face value to give you a corresponding item.

[@ToadDaBest333]

I remember when I races in a 1v1 worldwide, and I appeared to be losing and not finish the race, and I happened to see a first place music because I lagged first place.

[@TWD98]

I see what you did there!

[@Kampel125]

Actually, just yesterday I was racing on MKWii with my cousin on regular worldwide races. There were about 10 people in the races I had. One of those people were a yoshi, and they ALWAYS got a 5 second head start, which shows that everyone must've been everyone else was lagging. So that Yoshi almost overlapped us a couple of times due to this lag.

[@TechnoTranceBrony]

This is some... insane lag. Haha. I've had things like this on mk7, though it usually results in a disconnect win.

[@TWD98]

No but I'm gonna get it :P

[@affenass1167]

The most laggy race I've done yet was on N64 Sherbet Land. But the lag was good for me. I finished in 5th place, and I ended up being in 1st. Afterwards I got DC'd.

[@AlexDatcoldness]

At 4:39, that was when the worst of the lag went.

[@J-Chiptunator]

Something quite similar occurred to me once in Mario Kart 7, while playing against someone from Europe. For the first one, my opponent zipped far off before the race actually start. I was 2nd place the whole time, and a Bob-Omb has appeared out of nowhere. Once I finished it, the game told that I'm in 2nd place, yet the victory music was being played instead. After this and the second race, we all got disconnected. My Internet worked quite fine during the whole time. How deceptive!

[@DimitriPilot]

In a real-time online race with little to no lag, you can't possibly obtain ahead-of-time opponent coordinates from over the network BEFORE those coordinates are reached and sent (let alone with just Gecko codes). What probably happened is that, somehow (network failure?), Troy's game received the end-of-synchronization-phase signal 20 seconds after everyone else began the race. This has major outcomes, since Troy's timer is out of sync with everyone else's, which causes the game to glitch out.

[@jn3nor]

LOL Troy during skype: Troy: Whats happening and where am I?

[@felphero]

You should definitely rename this video to MOST EPIC LAG OF ALL TIME

[@睷]

I know im SOOOO LATE but i can explain what happened here at 5:20 Becaused of the lag start your timer started later and because your race finished faster (by the timer) than the other people it made you 8th AND YES MKWII LEADERBOARDS ARE DONE BY THE TIMER NOT BY WHO PASSED THE LINE

[@geth33]

If only someother person recorded that same race :P that would be hilarious to see what was happening to your funky :)

[@SuperNickid]

That his not the definition of a lag start, a lag start means your timer start counting after the other, and when you finish 8th on the others people screen you would actually finish in a better position, and that can even show on your screen. For your case it only started to lag after everyone including your time started at the same time.

[@Andrew-ms4dr]

I know im a decade late, but this happened to me in mk8 (WII U, not deluxe) in 2020 I remember 1v1ing against a Italian guy. The race started normal, but he just stood there, without getting kicked. Anyway he stood here for like 1 lap and then he teleports everywhere on the map, I'm not joking. Like on the minimap, it showed me that he was right behind me, then I was a lap late, then my guy teleported to the polar opposite of the map, like he has skipped the half of the map. After this he went afk again. This happened again with 2 races, with him teleporting everywhere then I left.

[@MKDSKairu763]

[@XXIceDarknessXX]

Hey at least you was able to play. I kept getting disconnected a lot today

[@HyperMario64]

Very probably something wrong with your ISP that particular session, with terrible latency delivered to MKWii servers at the time. Internet can go down in a lot of weird ways. A certain service may be almost unreachable while others are perfectly fine, and only for a specific subset of customers in a geographic location. There is supposed to be some amount of redundancy to still have some service but when it goes bad, this happens..

[@fearow2467]
