terious racer from the west racer x racer x s chosen character donkey kong at wario stadium in 2011 image by racer x the place was super crowded i watched the racers practice and they were very good i witnessed some moves that i had never seen before these people were on the same nerd wavelength as me when the real race started i was all focus i progressed through the rounds narrowly claiming victory over the tough competition in the semifinals i went up against dan himself in wario stadium it was one of the closest races i have ever seen dan pulled off a jump over the wall in the second lap securing a huge lead then he used the lightning bolt and dropped me as i jumped the gap in the final lap i somehow managed to leap the wall myself and the race ended in a photo finish the crowd went wild shrieking and jumping up and down it was quite a spectacle dan managed to place first with me just tenths of a second behind in the end i was able to move to final round challenging the previous year s winner daniella pagan she is a fierce competitor but always with a smile who races as the quick and light character yoshi in the final moments of the extremely difficult course banshee s boardwalk i managed to eek out a win as the points added up it became apparent that racer x was the 2011 mariokart 64 champion i was ceremoniously awarded a trophy belt under the oath that i would return next year to defend the prestigious title so a year went by the belt a constant reminder of what was to come and finally on sunday september 16th last weekend it happened mariokart 64 tournament 2012 dan sent out the official rules to all participants and i prepared myself to once again brave the track rule 1 seeding is determined by pool play every racer competes in two separate 4 player versus of an entire cup mushroom then flower the top 14 finishers are entered into the tournament in that seeding order the remaining pool of players compete in a battle mode play in for the 15th and 16th spots rule 2 ascending cc the tournament is played in two player mode grand prix with all the cpus there are 4 rounds of the tournament correlating to the 4 cups culminating in the final match in special cup we ascend in cc difficulty for each round first round is 50cc 2nd round is 100cc the semifinals and finals are competed on 150cc difficulty the racer with the most points at the end of each four race cup moves on the the next round and the other racer is eliminated rule 3 in the event of a tie the tying parties compete in a one on one battle mode at a random level to determine the winner if there s a tie in the final round the battle mode tiebreaker is still used resulting in the most intense battle mode ever played in the history of mario kart rule 4 player characters throughout the tournament you can only play as one character if two players want to race as the same person the higher seeded competitor gets to race as the character of their choice and the lower seeded competitor has to temporarily race as a different character rule 5 shortcuts are 100 legal koopa beach tunnel wario stadium wall rainbow road leap of faith rule 6 dont be late it s a race rule 7 ultimately it s a joke tournament i arrived early ready to go i was greeted my dan who shook my hand with a smile and said welcome back racer x people remembered me but no one knew my real name i introduced myself several times hi i m matt nava to confused looks then they would reply oh you are racer x i felt much more like a part of the gang this time around all the participants and spectators are super nice people with a great sense of sportsmanship and camaraderie i think that s really why rule 7 is the most important one however that doesn t mean that when we hit the track the competition isn t serious its a fierce battle where racers and onlookers alike feel their hearts pounding knees shaking and adrenaline pumping four competitors racing for the best seeding position in pool play the tournament began at high noon with pool play to decide seeding order i again chose the heavy weight character donkey kong this year in four player versus mode the frame rate is bad the screen is small and the randomness is very high i managed to place first in 7 out of 8 races of pool play with one second place on moo moo farm this earned me the highest seed position the rounds progressed and i made it to the semi finals it seemed that destiny would pit me against dan again making for an ultimate rematch in the star cup in wario stadium we placed similarly to last year dan in first and me in close second the real great race this time around though was in bowser s castle notoriously difficult this level leads racers through treacherous hallways filled with stomping stone bad guys and lava pits one false move can take even the best player from first place to last in an instant on the second lap i was mercilessly squashed losing my lead to dan the crowd was getting wild w as this the end of racer x but i t seemed that fate had decided to give me another chance in the final lap dan slipped and plunged headlong into the lava and i was able to come out in front for the win i was again in the finals this year i was pitted against another racer who is legendary amongst the competitors bill benz his chosen character was bowser the heaviest of all the racers by this time it was dark outside and their was a sense of impending amazingness in the air dan queued up probably the most fitting and epic song for the final showdown duel of the fates and so the final special cup round began the first two races dk s jungle falls and yoshi s canyon were two of the closest photo finish races i have ever seen our times were within a tenth of a second on both races bill claimed first in the jungle i got first in yoshi s canyon the crowd was crazy but it only got really interesting in the last two races banshee boardwalk and rainbow road banshee s boardwalk is one of the most feared courses in the game it has almost no guardrails is extremely slippery and the visibility is low when we raced it bill made a slip in the first lap and fell into the water i pulled ahead i thought i had the race in the bag but on the stretch just before the finish line i slipped off the course i instantly went from first to sixth and bill placed eighth by the rules of the game at least one player must finish in at least fourth place to move on so we had to redo the course the final round special cup 150cc this time around bill was on his game and we both placed it would all come down to the longest track in the game rainbow road it went back and forth i was out in front then was hit by a chain chomp bill was in the lead but i hit him with red shells but on the final lap i came at the big slope at a bad angle and fell off the course into space i managed to come back but ended up placing in third while bill claimed first the points tallied up and everyone s jaw dropped the final outcome was a tie this could only be resolved by invoking rule 3 the tying parties compete in a one on one battle mode at a random level to determine the winner if there s a tie in the final round the battle mode tiebreaker is still used resulting in the most intense battle mode ever played in the history of mario kart the scene of the most intense battle for the championship ever the block fort anyone who has ever seriously played mariokart 64 battle mode knows that the best level by far is the block fort so when that level was randomly chosen everyone cheered the crowd was on the edge of their seats it was the two heavyweights donkey kong vs bowser with everything riding on this one match every close encounter with a banana every near miss of a green shell and every star chase elicited swelling cheers and excitement from the crowd i was literally shaking as i played mine was the first balloon to pop a stray shell bill hit a fake item box eventually we were both down to our last balloons it seemed to be a perpetual moment of unpredictable fate but soon bill s final balloon burst from i m not sure what and i was the winner check out the intense final moments in the following video racer x became the first competitor to win two tournaments in a row everyone immediately jumped in the air cheering bill and i shook hands smiling it was a feeling of great satisfaction to again receive the prestigious trophy belt but the best thing was experiencing the heart pumping intensity of the race it was by far the most epic mariokart 64 racing i have ever seen and it would have been just as fun and worth it if i had not brought home gold congratulations to all the racers for bringing their skills to the track but even more so for bringing such a great attitude of friendly and silly competition and thanks to dan for coordinating and hosting the entire event i am very happy to have been a part of it the hard won trophy belt as the current holder of the title of champion i am again obligated to return next year to race and defend the belt the rumor is that the next tournament will be held in vegas should be interesting until next time racer x

by unknown 0 comments labels journey monday september 10 2012 i think photoshop needs better pen pressure control it would be great to be able to invert pressure input from wacom tablets for brush parameters in photoshop the most basic implementation would be an invert checkbox next to each parameter a more powerful idea would be to have customizable pressure input curves for each parameter this could be done with the contour editor used to control various layer style falloff options in particular i found that the pressure input for the mixer brush s mix slider was the reverse of what i thought it should be but the ability to customize the input curves for all parameters would create many new ways to use the brush tool these curves could also be used to control exactly how much force on the pen is needed allowing artists to work at a comfortable level of pressure and still enjoy the full range of input take a look at this topic at photoshop com and help get this feature implemented posted by unknown 2 comments wednesday september 5 2012 the art of journey pre orders available first 750 signed the art of journey is now available for pre order at http shop bluecanvas
