Has anyone had a problem with.....

... running into racers on MK biggrin S that you'd swear were cheating? Because I think I did. He was a japanese player, playing as Toad in his Mushmellow. Well, said player jerked left and right alot, but I doubt it was humanly possible to "snake" (boost left and right continuously) that fast.

Of course, the fact that no red shells could hit him, he managed to shake off a blue shell, and wasn't affected at all by lightning makes me leery as well.

Lag?

That's apparently the answer to any and all online problems. Apparently.

For anyone who plays CS:S. xD

I have had players like that and they are nearly always Japanese...
One time it was Rainbow Road and it was a pretty tight match and I swear I saw him ride off the edge at least two times. And then pop he'd be back on track and in front of me, very odd sometimes.

Crap, I forgot that had happened 3 times during that match on Rainbow Road.

Do they have some sort of Gameshark thing for the DS over there?

Someone is doing something that's not nice. confused

I think it's just lag. The DS doesn't recieve every single position off the other players kart each split second, it interprets where the kart amy be going, that's why they fall off but haven't fallen off and it looks weird when they snake.

Hmm.

but what about the shells, lightning, and blue shell though?

even with lag, that's suspicious.
