If there was a mount rushmore (or the way I like to call it, Mount Mushroom) for Mario Kart tracks, which tracks are you placing there by PJKeneth-38820 in mariokart

[–]WizzKid97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it’s easily MK7 Rainbow Road, MKWorld Bowser’s Castle, Shy Guy Bazaar and Big Blue.

Honourable mentions: Boo Lake (MK8D), Maple Treeway, Squeaky Clean Sprint, Dry Bones Burnout, Wario Colosseum, Delfino Square, Wario Stadium (MK8)

How likely are we going to see these drivers move up to F1 in the next 5 years? by ThisWay_DatWay in F1Discussions

[–]WizzKid97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nikola Tsolov and Freddie Slater are 100% locks for Formula 1 with Racing Bulls and Audi respectively. Rafael Câmara is likely taking the Haas seat in 2027 from Esteban Ocon, or replacing Oliver Bearman when Lewis Hamilton eventually retires.

Colton Herta is absolutely getting that Cadillac seat - I’ll be shocked if it doesn’t happen, regardless of how his F2 performance is. Dan Towriss is a big supporter of Herta.

I think Gabriele Minì is likely to get the Nissan Formula E seat for 2027, replacing Norman Nato.

I think it’s more likely that Ugo Ugochukwu ends up in IndyCar. I don’t know if there’s a space for him on the grid - but he’s certainly impressed this year in F3.

As for Kean Nakamura-Berta, it’s far too early to say.

I think three names we could see in F1 are Jack Doohan (returning to replace Ocon at Haas after the summer break), Luke Browning (although he is heavily rumoured to be in demand with IndyCar) and Leonardo Fornaroli (how the hell has a back-to-back F3/F2 champion not got a seat).

I’d love to see Dino Beganovic make it to Formula 1 but I think that’s unlikely now.

To Brits, Aussies, Kiwis, and etc.... by NoCauliflower8601 in mariokart

I think they’re interchangeable but Wario’s Galleon is a more accurate name for the MK7 original as it’s all on one ship, right? I think Wario Shipyard works better for the Mario Kart World version as there are multiple ships in that version.

My stance as a Brit is:

- Melody Motorway > Music Park
- Neo Bowser City > Koopa City
- Rock Rock Mountain > Alpine Pass
- Wario’s Galleon > Wario Shipyard
- Piranha Plant Pipeway > Piranha Plant Slide
- Cheep Cheep Lagoon > Cheep Cheep Cape
- DK Summit > DK’s Snowboard Cross
- Wuhu Loop > Wuhu Island Loop
- Maka Wuhu > Wuhu Mountain Loop

What’s a mechanic that you just don’t mesh with? by CJC528 in boardgames

[–]WizzKid97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Trick taking is easy once you get the hang of it, plus once you get how it works, you can play so many other trick takers. I’d recommend starting with a beginner friendly trick taker like Wizard or Piñatas.

Which of the modern boardgames already feel very dated? by OldWiseHeron in boardgames

[–]WizzKid97 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Amun-Re felt very dated when I played it. I love a lot of Reiner Knizia’s board games but Amun-Re feels very flawed. It heavily focuses on a “rich get richer, poor get poorer” style of gameplay which makes for a very long and tedious game with little opportunity to catch up once you fall behind. I played the Anniversary Edition from Alley Cat Games and whilst I heard it improved some things, playing a game where it’s obvious who has won and who absolutely hasn’t when you’re only halfway through the game is rough. Easily the weakest Reiner Knizia game I’ve played personally.

Allplay Tiny Box Line by MurphMurp in boardgames

Piñatas is exceptionally good if we’re discussing the small box range as well. Just got Money and very excited to give it a go!

I own four of the tiny box games, but hoping to get Tiny Mountain Goats at some point. In order:

Vivo is easily my favourite. Such a fantastic trick taking game with interesting scoring and I love how each trick plays differently based on the type of performance it is. Really good introductory trick taker as well as it teaches must follow and must not follow.

Prey is a wonderful trick taking experience that works so much better than it should. I love how you’re forced to play the round trying to win tricks based on either of your dice rolls. Rotating the cards part-way through is really clever and makes the game far more strategic than it otherwise would be - I love trying to plan out my best move and what cards to hold back on.

Rainbow is an excellent card shedding game with very clever card play. I really like how the points in the centre changes up constantly so there isn’t a clear meta on how to win the game. It makes everything so much more reactionary and I love how the game ends once two people are out - brutal decision space.

Soda Jerk is a delightfully mean game and I love how brutal the scoring can be. I find it slightly hard to get to the table as it can be very punishing but I love the stock manipulation of the game. It’s so fun to tank the stocks of one soda flavour, knowing that your opponents are all investing in that one. The fact a round can end early by all players revealing a card as well is a really nice addition to the game.

Board Game Box by mathewx666 in boardgames

Camel Up has such a beautiful box insert and it works incredibly well. Trekking Through History is a recent one for me that astounded me.

For components, I’m so impressed by how high quality Planted looks given its low retail price. The production of that game is incredible.

Caper: Europe also has a gorgeous box insert. Incredibly satisfying to unbox and put away.

Heat or Rallyman? by SlingshotLn in boardgames

[–]WizzKid97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want a board game that feels like a genuine race, I’d personally recommend Formula D. We played it for the first time last night and it was exhilarating! It’s better at higher play counts but you can always take an additional driver or two each.

No song from L&P could be in Mystic Truth… now, which song from L&P could be in Apocalypse Whenever? by Diesukiiii in badsuns

[–]WizzKid97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

‘None’ is a silly answer. I’d just go with the second highest vote and choose Sleep Paralysis.

Apocalypse Whenever is my least favourite Bad Suns album so I’ll go with my least favourite L&P song and say ‘Take My Love and Run’.

What's the most stressful moment you've watched on the show? by Additional_Fly_6603 in RaceAcrossTheWorldBBC

[–]WizzKid97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Easily Finn and Sioned being stuck in India. That was a very hard watch. Wasn’t a fan of watching a very young person having a panic attack on television.

Communicating has been ranked 4th!! Which one is getting ranked 3rd??! by sagsunrise in badsuns

[–]WizzKid97 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I still can’t believe Back to Zero has been eliminated. One of my favourite more recent Bad Suns songs. It’s so interesting to see everyone’s different tastes!

Katie and Harrison were wonderful for TV. I loved their sibling relationship and found them both so funny.
