Ever since the Booster Pass has been announced, a lot of us have been discussing ideas for what abbreviations we should be using for the new tracks. I think it's important for us to try and solidify these abbreviations so that there is no confusion in the future. That being said, I'd like to see what different ideas everyone has just to see what options we have to choose from!
Here are the ideas that I currently have for the tracks coming in March:
To Discuss:
In the competitive community, having abbreviations for tracks are important as they are a quick and efficient way to text someone a track without typing out the full words. On occasion, it is also better to communicate a track in voice call through it's abbreviation as it can be faster and clearer to say which could help avoid confusion with another track with a similar name. A good example of this would be saying rMC for GBA Mario Circuit to avoid confusion with MK8 Mario Circuit.

Paris Promenade - bPP
Toad Circuit - bTC
Choco Mountain - bCMo
Coconut Mall - bCMa
Tokyo Blur - bTB
Shroom Ridge - bSR
Sky Garden - bSG
Ninja Hideaway - bNH

To Discuss:
- I think using the letter B to signify the booster tracks is a good letter to differentiate the tracks from all the others, however the downside to this is that there will be 48 tracks with this letter unlike the usual 16 so is it worth having multiple letters / numbers or would we just stick to 1 letter?
- It's also important to note that in the first cup we are already thinking about two tracks which share the same letters, so we'll have to find a combination of letters which most people are happy with.
- Lastly, we should keep in mind all of the future tracks as well which might share the same letters as the tracks released before them. Would we change the previous abbreviations to help separate the tracks or do we keep them and change the later ones instead?
