INTRODUCTIONS:
0:00 - Welcome and Intros

ICE BREAKER:
15:22 - How many EXP levels did you grind this tour? What was your strategy (Where did you start, how did you keep track of which cities you grinded, did you drain to move on or just skim off the top of all)?

ANNIVERSARY TOUR:
29:02 - Did you pull for King Mario? It seemed like the worst value (all city tracks) and hardest to acquire (non-spotlight with 15 options) but with pipes going away, so many pulled for him. Was Nintendo trying to make us hate pipes enough we would feel a “good riddance” to ruby pipe pulls or was this their last chance at the “cash grab” before the game moves to new markets (that had banned gacha games).

3.0.0. UPDATE:
59:10 - Regarding the “try again” option after update, it seems like Nintendo was trying to make boomboxing easier now. If you restart a race, you get the same lobby but with a different starting lineup. So imagine you have 2 coinbox bots in your lobby starting place 7th and 8th, you just finish a race, press try again and the two coinbox bots will be in different starting spots. You just finish a couple of race and your coinbox bots will be in spots 1 to 4. Will you boombox more often and/or invest more into boomerang drivers?

1:30:08 - How many cap tickets will it take to quad cap something? 15, 16, 20 or other (talks of a golden ticket earned in order to quad cap)

1:37:48 - Do you believe Miis will be able to be Quad Capped? There’s a group (mostly people who didn’t invest in Miis) that believe Nintendo will save the Meta by denying Mii suits the ability to be quad capped. Others (mostly people who didn’t invest in Miis) would wonder why Nintendo would turn their back on their beloved Mii Suits they’ve glorified all year (and the whales who invested in them) by rewarding the players who ignored the “hype”.

1:42:20 - Assuming a HE quad cap would cost 20 tickets, would you rather quad one driver/kart/glider or triple cap two?

1:59:15 - With the Tier increase from 80 to 99, will the rewards change? Especially with the expectation of 20 cap tickets needed for a quad cap.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
2:05:10 - Advice to New Players & Goodbyes
