Mario Kart 64 Tournament - VA 2017 Play-Ins

These were the play-in rounds to get into the top 16 of the Virginia 2017 MK64 4P VS tournament. All matchups with video times are listed below.

Rules/Info:
24 people were entered in this tournament with the 4 finalists from last year getting a bye into the top 16. The remaining 20 players each played 2 rounds of all 16 tracks to try to earn one of the remaining 12 spots.
Each player plays 2 rounds of 16 races each with their opponents based on predetermined seeding. For each race, 3 points are awarded for 1st, 2 for 2nd and 1 for 3rd. The players with the most overall points in their 2 rounds (32 races total) moved on to the top 16. Cups were played in Mushroom, Special, Star, Flower order. Tracks were played with standard non-shortcut rules.
Tiebreakers were done at the end of the play-ins to determine more seeding for the next rounds. Players agreed to a VS mode of their choice with idle characters if wanted. Tiebreakers were best 2 out of 3 for 2 players, or best after 4 races for more players. (Tie in tiebreaker would be broken by 1 more race)

A ROM hack by bitalive was used for allowing same character selection and stats along with other scoring features: https://github.com/abitalive/MarioKart64

Big shoutouts to the Weathertons for keeping this event going strong for 10+ years now.
