Is it mean to...

Is it mean to drop a weight on someone when they just went over the speed? Because this toon kept saying "Don't be mean!" when another toon would do it. Or is it just playing the game? Because you can race any way you want (except for cheating) and this is not cheating. It is just a strategy.

I don't think so. When I get stinked during a race, it is usually because I used an anvil when they were about to cross the finish line.

Nope. That's called good strategy. He was just mad because it's a pretty big set back.

Some people are big babies and get mad when someone can play just a tad better than them and they get second place, LOL

It seems like all of the posts so far have been from the perspective of someone who uses the gag, not someone who gets hit by it. It is hard work to maxx racing, and if you come in second place when you are the most skilled driver of the group but got hit by anvils, it's frustrating. Especially when you're going for Tournament Sweeps and one anvil makes 15 minutes all for nothing. I'm not calling it cheating, but I wouldn't complain if Anvils were removed the weapons in racing.

Yeah, I kinda wish there was a way to race without weapons besides practice.

Well, I've actually been on both sides...

It's good when you use it, but you hate it when it's used on you. It is kinda cheap, so that is why I'm going to take turns with people on these forums from now on

It can make or break a win, which side your on decides your mood XD

I have to say that I always thought there should be some way to avoid an anvil. Like by swerving the right way when you hear it coming or something. That would be better.

I do use anvils though. And while I hate them dropped on me, I get over it. It's just a game. I'll live to try another day. Or two. Maybe even three.

I've raced with toons who drop anvils and then when one gets dropped on them they react with stinks and sobs and chase the dropper around after the race stinking him still.

Trust me, finishing 2nd place in a race doesn't mean you're not better than that person that finished first, because I've finished 2nd many times against people that ONLY beat me due to anvils.

I agree, but you have to remember that some people just aren't good at racing, and may never be good at it, so it is fair that they make anvils to even it out for the weaker racers in that sense.

Either way, whether you get hit by and anvil, or if you have to swerv, it can cause the best racer to lose, so I wouldn't really care to much about having a way of dodging the anvils... Although it may help a little, it's still no biggie IMO.

Racing is pretty much about luck in a lot of cases, but if you race enough, and get really skilled at it, you can be very hard to beat even with anvils. It's just a matter of getting better at it.

OMG! I cannot belive your "Friend" would do that, just for you playing the game! In my eyes your better off without him if he was like that
It's part of the "Game", so you should be able to use it when you want!
I've had it done to me loads of times, but I dont stink people for it!
