How many people do you think own Happy Feet I mean srsly.
As is my understanding a lot of those games don't save records either, which as far as I'm concerned is unacceptable in this day and age.
And then there's the fact that minigames, by their very nature, are not good candidates for competition anyway. Many of them are open to exploitation of dummy players or easily maxable (honourable mention goes to DK64 here for being neither of the above and still awesome), one of which is hard to prove against and the other not worth proving.
Add to the fact that you specifically went against the subsite guidelines, and that's why I say this shouldn't go ahead.
Thank you for finally clearing that up! That REALLY helps me.
First off, you're right about Happy Feet wihch is why I placed it was last on the list but you know what, I'm not gonna bother anymore.

mike, majority ARE recorded... Like I said, I've thought about this as well.
Regarding the ones for candidates for competition, I've evaluated almost all games.
I'm going to re-evaluate all games I can right now on the charts to see if they're worthwhile...
(BTW, are you for or against DK64? I got a little confused with you calling it an "honourable mention")

EDITED (Re-looked at all charts with a changed perspective):
****
Checklist:Rayman Raving Rabbids
Verdict: All on list are EXCELLENT competition candidates. I was thinking of adding Bunnies Can't Jump - Part 2 back but I've now decided not to (despite the fact that a few days ago I finally got 1000/1000 for that game...) Best for competition no doubt.
Sonic and the Secret Rings
Verdict: Removing: FINAL X ADVENTURE (if people want it back, I'll add it; is there a max of 40? If not, then we can proceed with it); Whack! Giant Stakes/Whack! Hatchet (somewhat-easily maxable; both me and friend go 24 on Giant Stakes; 25 was my best for Hatchet), Row! Canoe Salvage/Shine on! Kri Ma Djinn/Sink em! Pirate Ship (pretty low scores: Salvage - 18; Shine - 16; Pirate Ship - 15), Seek! Edge Race (max: 0:34 - my best; second best was 0:35 which I got like so many times.)
Super Paper Mario
Verdict: Yep. Everything's okay. I've decided to remove "Forget Me Not" though.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Verdict: Fine.
Fuzion Frenzy
Verdict: Removing: Bumper Race, Roller Ruckus (somewhat-easily maxable), Water Gate Scramble (no sense in having one game for times especially when it's not extremely competitive as the others...), Erodeo (forgot game ends once you or COM's fall off)
Sonic Shuffle
Verdict: Not adding: Sonic Slot, Sonic the Thief anymore. Sorry Thorn. :P Everything else is fine.
Mario Party 7
Verdict: Removing: Royal Rumpus, Real Smoothie, Helipopper, Gimme a Brake/Clock Watchers (Proximity games are all being removed)

Verdict: Boonanza!, Dunk Bros (all), Lunar-tics (Proximity games are all being removed)
Mario Party 1
Verdict: Removing: Whack-a-Plant (already discussed), Face Lift, and Crazy Cutters
Madagascar
Verdict: Two challenges will be removed and won't be added.
SpongeBob SquarePants: Lights, Camera, PANTS! - GC/Xbox/PS2
Verdict: Removing, will not add - Flippin' Out (record still recorded if you play with a human player), Machine Meltdown, Rubble Rabble (both Easy and Hard; record still recorded if you play with a human player),? The Bouncers, Blisterin' Barnacles (170 max but it's difficult to obtain; still to avoid disputes...) Flingin' & Swingin' (1000 max but it's hard to attain. I've gotten it, ftr)
SpongeBob SquarePants: Lights, Camera, PANTS! - GBA
Verdict:
Removing game period. Only a couple of competitive games of the ones on chart that would be really competitive.
