Alex Penev is an all-round gamer and staff-ninja in the kart community. He was voted most popular personality in the inaugural 2004 Karter Contest, was runner-up in 2006, and won again in 2008.
A former Mario Kart 64 champion in both Non-Shortcut and Shortcut rankings, Alex never officially retired despite having been inactive since 2001. At his peak, he was the top universal/combined player for several years. Perhaps best known for his shortcut skills, Alex held some particularly long-standing records; notably CM flap, which stood for 5 years despite its suboptimal boost usage, and both the LR SC and CM SC course times, which were beaten after new shortcuts were found.
Alex was briefly #1 in Mario Kart Double Dash, where he reached the top in Jan 2004 and held the position for 4 months. He retired from MKDD in July 2004, but remained as a site updater. He also briefly competed in Mario Kart Wii in 2008, at the end of the first year of competition. He optimised several lap strategies and broke the then-records on most tracks he attempted. He also held a 3lap record on MG SC after revealing a 2s improvement on the shortcut strategy.
Outside of the Mario Kart series, Alex is a veteran of N64HS and Cyberscore. He holds or has held high-score records in many games in the Mario series, Zelda series, Pokemon Snap, and Donkey Kong series, among others.
Outside of records competition, Alex has given back to the community by creating the front-ends of the SMK, MKSC, MKDD, MKDS and MKW sites. In more current roles, Alex is a site admin and forum admin, but rumour has it that he has other secret powers. Personal quotes include "chown -R me ~you/base*" (all your base are belong to me), and "...no queue jumping" (in response to "I want your babies!").
