First, the results from competition #70:
1st Place, yours truely with a grand total of 11 votes:

2nd Place, the one and only pucifur27 with a total of 7 votes:

And of course congratulations to all the others who entered. Yes, all 5 of them.
Now anyway, since it's the first sprite competition I've won, I thought I'd do something that most Mario fans can relate to; Mario Kart. Basically, your job is to sprite the players from any of the 5 games in any style you choose.
You're allowed to sprite karts from any of those games, which means you are able to sprite the 'ordinary' karts from the first couple of games, or the 'not-so-ordinary' karts from games like Double Dash, and everything in between.
You don't have to sprite the riders of the karts if you don't want to, but you may if you wish. However don't focus
too much on the riders as that sort of defeats the whole point of the 'Kart' idea (So for instance, don't just sprite Mario sitting in a kart, and have loads of animations of him waving his hands and changing facial expressions, instead do rotations of the kart or something).
Anyway,
the deadline is the 16th of March, which is one week away, so have fun!
