5 Gaming Techniques That Are Actually Absurd

1. Snaking

We used to do this all day in high school. Join the cool kids revolution.

In Mario Kart DS (and Mario Kart Wii), the fastest way to get around a track is to exploit the speed boosts that you get when you drift. By constantly alternating left and right drifts, you would move forward in a zigzag at a faster pace than you would without the boosts. It's called snaking because you move like an extremely fast snake, but at the same time, YOU'RE DRIVING LIKE A SNAKE. If I were Mario, I'd outlaw snaking and make sure that you lose your MarioKart driving license if you're ever caught boosting your kart on the road.

The Chronicle of a Very Bad Idea

The single purpose of this blog post is to complete a set of events. Bear with me here.

This blog started off as a simple motivational tool. Yunsuk wanted to start drawing again and I wanted to start writing again, so we matched each other's progress one-for-one. At this point, I'm falling behind, and it's entirely my fault.
