So I just got in. Can I play if no one else is currently in the tournament? I just keep 'waiting for everyone to suggest a course'.

I think at least two people need to be in, I could be wrong though.

Did anyone race alone?

Well that sucks. I'm currently waiting for others to suggest a course...

Might be better to set it up to where people try to race every 30 min, like at the top of the hour and then halfway. If nobody joins after waiting 5 min, try again in 30 min or whenever the next '30 min mark' would work best for you

Just got in a race with paul

Any morning tournaments? There should be. That's a good time to squeeze in some races, during coffee before work

I think this could be a good idea...we could still do one tournament that stays open all night but try and coordinate specific start times. by 7:30 we had 10 people racing and once that was done it seemed to get quiet from the way it looks on the board. Maybe we could shoot for a 7:00 run that gets a bit more crowded by 7:30 and then try and coordinate a 10:00 start time or something for the later crew.

I'll go in tonight and adjust the group swap every 4 races to no swapping. Anyone have any other suggestions? I had a lot of fun, but was ready to destroy things by the time it was over with

Yeah and I prefer wiimote for Mario 3D World, Mario Bros U, etc.

I like the pro a lot too. We have 4 wiimotes, the aforementioned Mario adventure games are so freaking awesome in multiplayer
