It goes by French timezone
Yeah more like UTC+1 but yeah you’re right it’s basically on French time but not only France actually.
Who actually memorises all the timezones though?

I was able to play the first one on November 30th despite it not being December 1st, it may be because it was December 1st in Europe when I played it so it must have taken it as December 1st in the USA

I will not accept this.
Edit: Please Stop Disliking
RD JUST ruins THE GAME FOR BEGINNERS>
Edit: Please Stop Disliking
RD JUST ruins THE GAME FOR BEGINNERS>Uh what? That's like saying you find a certain mechanic, that was literally intended by the developer to stay in the game, too hard and therefore wanting to try ban it or isolate it because you just suck at the game.
There is no need to create a leaderboard like this, the 150cc and 200cc leaderboards are fine enough. Although I would be open to interesting categories, such as: Fast Lap and TAS (latter is unrealistic but a TAS feature would be cool, since back in the day people used slow motion for this).

Hello everyone,
So recently the mods and I have noticed some pretty bad forum trends: message grinding and random topics nobody really knows/cares about. We've also had to delete quite a few because they were either just plain dumb, had conversions unrelated to the topic or it was the same 2-3 people just messaging each other. We decided to bring this back because we'd rather this stuff be in one place rather than just everywhere, i.e. organised spam as opposed to cluttered spam.
Obviously the "anything" part doesn't mean everything and you still have to follow the rules. Your posts here have to make sense because I dont wanna see random gibberish, so anyone who uses the "this is space for ANYTHING" card is gonna get a warn, non negotiable. (so don't just post a single letter/emoji or bash your keyboard etc.)
Please don't use this as a space to grind messages, or treat this like a big groupchat either.
The mods will be monitoring this topic so please don't abuse this or do anything stupid. We may also be locking or deleting any random topics in the future.

Note: I purged the original topic because you all did not respect the "don't use this as a space to grind messages/treat this like a big groupchat" part. From now on, any post that is message farming will result in a warn, and if it's your second strike, a ban. You all are using this as a space to make your message count go up and it is forbidden. Moreover, if I see any arguments on here, it will be sanctioned as well. And you will get sanctioned if you make a topic about a subject that could've fit into here, because this place is supposed to limit and centralize spam, not make it worsen.
The name of the topic is a little misleading to some then..?
ANYWAYS

/!\ PUBLISHING YOUR CHALLENGES / SUR LA PUBLICATION DES DÉFIS /!\
On 2025-12-02 at 17:07:31
Hello Everyone ^^
I hope you are all doing well,
Recently, the Validator Team have had a few complaints about the rejection of some challenges. They seem to not understand why we make the decisions that we do, but I assure you that we don't reject any to piss anyone off. In our opinions, there is always something that isn't optimized to be a published challenge, and here are some reasons why they may be rejected.
1 - INAPPROPRIATE CHALLENGES
If a challenge has a name or idea that contains swearing, insults, NSFW content... (basically anything bad), it will be rejected. We don't really get this much which is good.
2 - GENUINELY IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGES
Some challenges are deliberately made to not be beaten by anyone, even people with the highest skill or even TAS if it was to exist in MKPC. (ex. Complete the track in less than 3 seconds) We see this as a way to get free challenge points and potentially rig the system.
3 - SPAM OF CHALLENGES
Basically, do not make a ton of challenges. I know this sounds strange coming from me since I originally created 38 on Bathaniel Nandy, but this can also be a way of gaining a lot of challenge points. (obviously my intention wasn't to rig the system though, otherwise I wouldn't be validator )
4 - RIDICULOUSLY EASY CHALLENGES
When a challenge is too easy, it no longer becomes a "challenge". It's more of a task and requires little to no skill at all. (ex Complete the Track) In this example there is nothing to increase the difficulty of the challenge, so this defeats the whole purpose of making a challenge. (obviously if the course is hard then it's an exception) For these type of challenges to be accepted you need to add some conditions that make the gameplay a little harder and more interesting.
5 - ZONES WITH NO HINTS
When you are told to reach a zone but there is nothing to guide you, no skill is involved, everything is pretty much just pure luck and hope. It can also be a way to gain points effortlessly.
6 - REPETITIVE CHALLENGES
When challenges are too similar it gets stupid. An example is:
Complete the track in less than 52 seconds
Complete the track in less than 51 seconds
Complete the track in less than 50 seconds
As you can see there is very little variation, and allows you to beat a bunch of challenges easily.
7 - SECRETS FOR SPEED
If you add invisible shortcuts or ways to become faster to get a better time for a challenge, then it's cheating.
8 - UNPUBLISHED CIRCUITS CAN'T HAVE CHALLENGES
Some people have been releasing challenges without the circuit being published. The problem with this is that the creator, who is anonymous, will manipulate the track after release and gain free challenge points. Because we don't know who created the challenge, the person will be more likely to exploit this. This is why circuits must be published first.
9 - FAKE DIFFICULTIES
Please don't think you can get away with deliberately requesting a fake difficulty. (ex. Requesting a Challenge to be Impossible when it is actually Easy) This gets super annoying for the validators to edit, and also reduces your credibility for future challenges. Obviously, it can be unintentional when the difficulty change is small, in which case you're fine. This rule mainly applies to those who think they can exploit the Challenge Point system.
10 - STOLEN TRACKS CAN'T HAVE CHALLENGES
If you steal another person's course without their permission, you are breaking the rules. Not only should you not deserve to have any challenges on it but it should be deleted. If the image was made by another person and permission was in fact given, then challenges will be allowed.
These are pretty much the reasons why we reject challenges. (I may update this in future) Don't assume we do it because we hate you or because we are dumb. We are all human and we will make mistakes every now and then, but you have nothing to worry about if you follow these guidelines. Occasionally the game may bug and automatically manipulate the challenge, so that may be another reason.
If a challenge does happen to be rejected, PLEASE READ THE FEEDBACK before you try to re-upload it. This is another common issue the validators have to deal with, and is quite annoying when we have to reject the same challenge because the creator didn't fix the addressed problems.
Also, please don't get salty if we reject a challenge because we are just trying to do our jobs.
If you want, follow the topic in case you ever need to come back to this.
Goodbye ^^

Bonjour à tous ^^
J'espère que vous allez tous bien,
Récemment, l'équipe des validateurs a reçu quelques plaintes concernant le rejet de certains défis. Les créateurs de défis semblent ne pas comprendre certaines de nos décisions, mais je vous assure qu'on ne refuse pas les défis dans le seul but d'énerver les gens. À notre avis, il y a toujours quelque chose qui n'est pas optimisé pour qu'un défi soit publié, voici quelques raisons pour lesquelles ils peuvent être rejetés.
1 - DÉFIS INAPPROPRIÉS
Si un défi a un nom ou une idée qui contient des jurons, des insultes, du contenu NSFW... (en gros, tout ce qui est mauvais), il sera rejeté. Heureusement, nous n'avons pas beaucoup affaire à ce genre de choses.
2 - DÉFIS COMPLÈTEMENT IMPOSSIBLES
Certains défis sont délibérément faits pour ne pas être complétés par qui que ce soit, même par les meilleurs joueurs ou même à l'aide d'un TAS si cela arrivait à exister sur MKPC. (par exemple, terminer le circuit en moins de 3 secondes) Nous considérons ces types de défis comme un moyen d'obtenir des points de défi gratuitement et éventuellement de truquer le système.
3 - SPAM DE DÉFIS
S'il vous plaît, ne faites pas des tonnes de défis. Je sais que cela peut paraître paradoxal venant de moi puisqu'au départ, j'ai créé 38 défis sur l'arène Bathaniel Nandy, mais cela peut aussi être un moyen de gagner beaucoup de points de défi. (Évidemment, mon intention n'était pas de truquer le système, sinon je n'aurais jamais pu devenir validateur)
4 - DÉFIS RIDICULEMENT FACILES
Lorsqu'un défi est trop facile, il ne devient plus un "défi". Il s'agit plutôt d'une tâche qui ne requiert que peu ou pas de compétences. (par exemple, "Finir le circuit" sans contraintes, sur un circuit facile) Dans l'exemple que je viens de citer, il n'y a rien qui augmente la difficulté du défi, ce qui va donc à l'encontre de l'objectif de la création d'un défi. (évidemment, si le circuit est difficile, pas de problème) Pour que ce type de défi soit accepté, vous devez ajouter certaines conditions qui rendent le gameplay un peu plus difficile et plus intéressant.
5 - ATTEINDRE UNE ZONE, SANS INDICES
Quand on vous dit d'atteindre une zone mais qu'il n'y a rien pour vous guider, aucune capacité n'est impliquée, c'est une question de chance et d'espoir. Cela peut aussi être un moyen de gagner des points sans aucun effort.
6 - DÉFIS RÉPÉTITIFS
Lorsque les défis sont beaucoup trop similaires, c'est juste stupide. En voici un exemple :
Finir le circuit en moins de 52 secondes
Finir le circuit en moins de 51 secondes
Finir le circuit en moins de 50 secondes
Comme vous pouvez le constater, il y a très peu de différences entre ces défis, et cela vous permet facilement de tous les compléter en une seule fois.
7 - ÉLEMENTS CACHÉS
Si vous ajoutez des raccourcis invisibles dans votre création ou des moyens d'être plus rapide pour obtenir un meilleur temps pour un défi, alors c'est de la triche.
8- LES CIRCUITS NON PUBLIÉS NE PEUVENT PAS AVOIR DE DÉFIS
Certaines personnes ont fait des défis sans publier leur circuit. Le problème, c'est que le créateur anonyme peut changer le circuit après sa publication et gagner des points de défis gratuitement. Puisqu'on ne sait pas qui a créé le défi, la personne a encore plus de chance d'en profiter. C'est pourquoi les circuits devraient être publiés en premier.
9 - FAUSSES DIFFICULTÉS
Veuillez ne pas essayer de tricher en indiquant une fausse difficulté (par exemple, indiquer la difficulté Impossible sur un défi qui mérite en réalité d'être Facile). C'est très ennuyeux pour les validateurs qui doivent modifier ça après coup, et ça réduit votre crédibilité pour les futurs défis. Évidemment cela peut être involontaire lorsque la différence de difficulté est faible, auquel cas ce n'est pas un problème. Cette règle s'applique principalement pour ceux qui cherchent à tricher avec le système de points défis.
10 - LES CIRCUITS ILLÉGITIMEMENT RÉAPPROPRIÉS NE PEUVENT PAS AVOIR DE DÉFIS
Si vous publiez un circuit dont l'image a été réappropriée sans la moindre autorisation de la part du propriétaire légitime, vous allez à l'encontre des règlements du site. Non seulement votre circuit ne mérite pas d'avoir le moindre défi dessus mais il devrait être complètement supprimé. En revanche, si le propriétaire légitime de l'image vous a donné son accord pour l'utiliser, alors le circuit peut avoir des défis.
J'ai donc cité les raisons les plus courantes pour lesquelles nous, validateurs, rejetons les défis. (C'est possible que je rajoute des choses à l'avenir).
Lorsque nous rejetons des défis, ne croyez pas que nous faisons ça parce que nous vous détestons ou parce que nous sommes idiots. Nous sommes tous des humains et faisons des erreurs de temps en temps, mais si vous suivez mes recommandations, vous n'aurez pas à vous inquiéter. Parfois, il peut arriver que le jeu bug et modifie automatiquement un défi, ce qui peut être une autre raison.
Si un défi est effectivement rejeté, MERCI DE LIRE LE COMMENTAIRE avant de le soumettre de nouveau. Ceci est un autre problème courant que rencontrent les validateurs, et c'est assez ennuyeux de devoir rejeter le même défi en boucle simplement parce que son créateur n'a pas corrigé le problème remonté.
Une dernière chose, ne vous énervez pas si nous rejetons un défi : nous essayons simplement de faire notre travail.
Si vous le souhaitez, vous pouvez suivre ce topic si vous avez besoin de le relire.
Au revoir ^^

uhh... was mine good because I made one and mines didnt get validated yet
if it gets rejected read the feedback (written in the post)
sometimes the challenge validators will be busy (eg. exams) so just be patient; it'll probably be validated in the next few days
Alr thanks. I put my challenge as difficult mode but now looking at it I think it should be normal lol
Don't worry, validators set challenges to the appropriate difficulty, so it doesn't matter if you're off slightly

★ Challenge Creation Reminder ★
Hello everyone! It's me, Hazel. I am one of the Challenge Validators within the Validation Team, responsible for accepting, rejecting and modifying challenges so they fit Mario Kart PC without losing the original idea of the challenge.
Recently, while validating challenges, I've noticed many challenges that break some of the rules regarding challenge creation. Due to this, we unfortunately have to reject a bunch of challenges. We always give reasons as to why we may reject challenges, please read it!
A lot of challenges being rejected are often rejected for the same reasons, so I have decided to create this post to highlight some of these rules being broken the most frequently, so hopefully creators can see this and get their challenges accepted in the future! Please read the challenge creation rules if you haven't already, thank you!
You can click this link to see the challenge creation rules in its entirety
★ Specific Rule Reminders ★
Additional Comments: This one thankfully isn't as much as an issue as the other ones I will mention, but sometimes we get a few tracks with like 10+ challenges pending for it with little variation to the challenges. Challenges like: "Complete the track with Mario" "Complete the track with Luigi" "Complete the track with Toad" ... all in the same track is repetitive and doesn't really add anything interesting either. The main reason we reject challenges breaking this rule is having so many similar/low-effort challenges for the sake of gaining challenge points.
Additional Comments: There are a lot of challenges that get rejected because of this, which is a shame since some of the challenges that get rejected for this reason actually has a lot of potential for an interesting challenge. This is most common in challenges around completing the track (with no extra conditions) and collecting item boxes/coins (with no extra conditions). All that needs to be done is to add some sort of constraint to make the challenge a bit harder, this can be as simple or as complex as you want! We reject any challenges that feel too easy for Easy difficulty (easy for beginners, but still failable to some capacity).
Additional Comments: There isn't much for me to say for this, as I have covered the main points in the first specific rule reminder. This is just "Spam of Challenges", but on a smaller scale. If a few challenges are similar to one another, we may edit the challenges to be different enough to feel unique or reject challenges that are too similar (3 similar challenges may turn into 2 rejected and 1 accepted for example).

This section is for more niche tips for publishing challenges, that will make it easier for your challenges to get accepted. Although, if you have followed all the rules mentioned in the first post of this forum topic, you shouldn't have any issues.
1. Incomplete Challenges
What do I mean by "Incomplete Challenges"? There isn't really an official term for them as far as I am aware but they are challenges that are like: "Finish in the 1st position", and then does not have any extra conditions set. Don't worry, these challenges will likely get accepted if it is easy enough to see what the creator's intentions were when making the challenge. Although we may have to make some assumptions, which may not be what you wanted initially (these can be changed upon request!)
Let's start with a common example: "Finish the track in the 1st position".
This challenge is fine, but it can be improved upon further. So let's make some modifications to it. Please consider the following:
- What mode is it? (VS Mode/TT Mode)
- What engine class? (150cc, 200cc etc.)
- How many participants?
- What difficulty of CPUs?
- Any additional constrains would you like to add? (optional)
Specifying these constraints makes it easier to play the challenge right from the get-go and saves time for both the players and the validators. It also can help maintain the intended difficulty of the challenge.
Here's the improved version: "Finish the track in the 1st position, in VS Mode, in 150cc class, with 8 participants, in Difficult mode"
2. You Can Take Inspiration From Challenges You Enjoy!
There are a few hidden gems on Mario Kart PC that have a lot of interesting and creative challenges. I've seen battle mode arenas turned into custom boss fights (@Nodac64 makes some cool boss fights), tracks be used as mini obstacle courses using mechanics like rails, challenges be used as training tools and so much more. Challenges can be really simple or really complex, it's your choice! Let your creativity take over! We don't really have a particular order of what challenges we validate, but creating less tedious challenges will likely get your challenge validated faster. However, all challenges eventually get validated, no matter the type or difficulty, thank you for your patience.
3. Raw Skill Is Not The Only Factor For Difficulty
Suprisingly, raw skill is not the only factor that determines a challenge's difficulty. But rather focused on two main factors:
- The skill required to beat a challenge
- The length of the challenge itself
This means that you can have a fairly easy challenge, but if the length is longer than the average challenge on Mario Kart PC, that difficulty of your challenge may increase. This is very common among multicups, for example: CTGP-PC Deluxe has a challenge called "CTGP-PC Deluxe Marathon", which is rated Impossible difficulty. Not because a race itself is at the same difficulty as standard Impossible challenges, but rather because there are 40 gold cups in the challenge (160 tracks or about 5 hours of gameplay on average). This mainly applies to multi-cups but this tip also applies to tracks that are just really long.
The difficulty system is as follows:
Note: You do not have to worry about getting a challenge's difficulty completely perfect when publishing your challenge! We change the difficulty to what is suitable for the challenge upon accepting it.

I hope this served as a good reminder/guide on challenge creation, if you have any questions about challenges, please continue to ask them in this forum. Happy challenge creating!
Hello everyone! It's me, Hazel. I am one of the Challenge Validators within the Validation Team, responsible for accepting, rejecting and modifying challenges so they fit Mario Kart PC without losing the original idea of the challenge.
Recently, while validating challenges, I've noticed many challenges that break some of the rules regarding challenge creation. Due to this, we unfortunately have to reject a bunch of challenges. We always give reasons as to why we may reject challenges, please read it!
A lot of challenges being rejected are often rejected for the same reasons, so I have decided to create this post to highlight some of these rules being broken the most frequently, so hopefully creators can see this and get their challenges accepted in the future! Please read the challenge creation rules if you haven't already, thank you!

★ Specific Rule Reminders ★
3 - SPAM OF CHALLENGES
Basically, do not make a ton of challenges. I know this sounds strange coming from me since I originally created 38 on Bathaniel Nandy, but this can also be a way of gaining a lot of challenge points. (obviously my intention wasn't to rig the system though, otherwise I wouldn't be validator )

)Additional Comments: This one thankfully isn't as much as an issue as the other ones I will mention, but sometimes we get a few tracks with like 10+ challenges pending for it with little variation to the challenges. Challenges like: "Complete the track with Mario" "Complete the track with Luigi" "Complete the track with Toad" ... all in the same track is repetitive and doesn't really add anything interesting either. The main reason we reject challenges breaking this rule is having so many similar/low-effort challenges for the sake of gaining challenge points.
4 - RIDICULOUSLY EASY CHALLENGES
When a challenge is too easy, it no longer becomes a "challenge". It's more of a task and requires little to no skill at all. (ex Complete the Track) In this example there is nothing to increase the difficulty of the challenge, so this defeats the whole purpose of making a challenge. (obviously if the course is hard then it's an exception) For these type of challenges to be accepted you need to add some conditions that make the gameplay a little harder and more interesting.

Additional Comments: There are a lot of challenges that get rejected because of this, which is a shame since some of the challenges that get rejected for this reason actually has a lot of potential for an interesting challenge. This is most common in challenges around completing the track (with no extra conditions) and collecting item boxes/coins (with no extra conditions). All that needs to be done is to add some sort of constraint to make the challenge a bit harder, this can be as simple or as complex as you want! We reject any challenges that feel too easy for Easy difficulty (easy for beginners, but still failable to some capacity).
6 - REPETITIVE CHALLENGES
When challenges are too similar it gets stupid. An example is:
Complete the track in less than 52 seconds
Complete the track in less than 51 seconds
Complete the track in less than 50 seconds
As you can see there is very little variation, and allows you to beat a bunch of challenges easily.

Additional Comments: There isn't much for me to say for this, as I have covered the main points in the first specific rule reminder. This is just "Spam of Challenges", but on a smaller scale. If a few challenges are similar to one another, we may edit the challenges to be different enough to feel unique or reject challenges that are too similar (3 similar challenges may turn into 2 rejected and 1 accepted for example).

The difficulty system is as follows:

- A medium challenge is typically difficult for a beginner but easy for an experienced player.
- A difficult challenge would be challenging for an experienced player but doable in several trials.
- An extreme challenge will require an experienced player to try-hard.
- An impossible challenge will require experienced players to try for several hours, or even days before succeeding

Hello everyone this is a brief reminder that if your challenge gets rejected, please read why one of us have rejected your challenge. Re-submitting a challenge without applying the changes the validators suggest just wastes time, as it would just lead to another rejection and/or a small temporary ban when making challenges.

I think the rules that the validators have to follow is more vague than the ones the players have to

Out of all of the criteria for rejecting a challenge, "this is a stolen track" is not shown in the list. i already explained in the comments WHY I stole the track AND EVEN GAVE CREDIT IN THE DESCRIPTION
It should be obvious why we don't accept challenges on stolen tracks, as you clearly stole the track, it wasn't your original creation. If you remake the track, then it's okay, as then it's your creation (although the best thing to do there is ask the original creator for permission for you to make the revamp).
