public.ticketbiscuit.com/CentralCinema/Events/22378764 player tournament, $15 buy in. I'm imagining it'll be kinda like Bloodsport. I don't think it's sold out if there's anybody in the greater Seattle area who wants to compete. I'm pretty excited. Did some light brushing up on my abilities over the weekend, and while my power sliding isn't what it was, I'm still a deadeye with a green shell. If anyone has any pieces of advice, encouragement, or threats, by all means please share.

Lightweight drivers are the best. Use Yoshi or Toad.
If you're in front, leave a shell or peel behind your kart to protect you from attacks.
And no matter what happens, never lose your focus and never give up. Anyone in any position can get the checkered flag. Just make sure it's you.

Save the blue shell for when a bunch of people are bunched up at the front.
Might as well maximize the people you @$%$%$@%$

I tend to just go with Wario, little less speed than DK and Bowser but without such a clear acceleration problem. You need to worry a lot more about people who might snake and items being used. And like Shulk said, just run the race to the end; crazy shit happens at any given moment in Mario Kart, even at the last moments. And even then, just finish strong even if 1st place is already decided. Don't just back off because you don't have the W. A lot of people will hold onto a weapon or something for the finish line (at least in my experience) just to screw with the person in front of or behind them, and you don't want a 2nd place finish to suddenly become 5th or worse.

I made it to the 2nd round, got knocked out on Rainbow Road due to a well-placed fake item block.
I'll say that playing in front of a crowd, on a giant screen, is a lot different than playing in my underwear at home.

You don't mention whether you were still only in your underwear?
If so, I would have expected you to go further due to the other players being distracted.
If not, well you know what to do in the future to make it more familiar.
Either way It sounds like something that was fun and at least you made it past the first round.
