Mario Circuit - Super Mario Kart

"Mario Circuit - Super Mario Kart" is a high quality rip of "Mario Circuit" from Super Mario Kart.
== Jokes ==
The rip begins as a melodyswap of "Mario Circuit" and "Meet the Flintstones". However, the audio gradually slows down, and the thumbnail zooms in at a diagonal as the text in the logo changes to "WOOP TROOPᑫOOЯT". At 0:10, a clip of Eric Andre from the The Eric Andre Show episode "Bird Up!" accompanied by glitch effects is superimposed over the thumbnail as it rights itself, though still with the logo edit. Both the thumbnail and the "Bird Up" footage then move erratically as the "Bird Up!" logo appears, itself moving erratically. The "Bird Up!" bird then rises up from the bottom left, then has the poob implant-eyed Hannibal face jumpscare from the "Bird Up!" episode appear over its face.
The rest of the rip features various gags unrelated to the advertised game, mostly featuring The Eric Andre Show clips.

At 1:28, footage plays of the ripper staring at the unfinished rip on his computer screen, then sighing and resting his forehead in his hand. He then walks over to a printer, removes a sheet of paper from it, writes "♫/rayk" on the paper with a Sharpie, slaps it on the wall by his computer, points to it with his thumb while looking into the camera, and says "How do you like them apples?"
=== Mini-ARG ===
Following a concerted effort by members of the SiIvaGunner Discord and hints by Twonko, the text "♫/rayk" was revealed to be a part of a false lore event orchestrated by members of the SiIvaGunner team."SiIvaGunner 4/6/2017 Mini-ARG", Google Document by Anderos. Lat updated: June 8, 2017. (ARG "solved" April 8, 2017)
*"♫/rayk" refers to a Picosong link: http://picosong.com/rayk/
**The Picosong is a voice clip from the video "Bird Up! Focus Group | The Eric Andre Show | Adult Swim" saying, "PAUL WALKER IS ALIVE".
**The Picosong contains the following information:
Title: just copy and paste
Artist: box boy
Album: none of this this anything you know that right?
Length: 0:16
Filename: palu.mp3
File size: 0.50 0.50
Track: 1
Year: 2017
Genre: 4KSrmc6N
Bitrate: 256 kbps
Sample Rate: 44100 Hz
*The genre ("4KSrmc6N") leads to a pastebin titled "bitter boy":
01101000 01110100 01110100 01110000 01110011 00111010 00101111 00101111 01110100 01110111 01101001 01110100
it was about birds
 
--tweet tweet <3
**The binary reads "https://twit"
*Twonko then spammed pictures of birds in a Discord server dedicated to the ARG
*Going to https://twitter.com/Dub_Rip (an anagram of "Bird Up!") leads to a Twitter account named "stop over analyzing" with the description, "the exact opposite".
**The account has two Tweets The first Tweet reads:
01110100 01100101 01110010 00101110 01100011 01101111 01101101 00101111 01000100 01110101 01100010 01011111 01010010 01101001 01110000
***This binary translates to "ter.com/Dub_Rip", the second half of the Twitter link.
*Taking the "exact opposite" of Dub_Rip and making it RipDubstep creates the Twitter link https://twitter.com/RipDubstep.
**The website on the @Dub_Rip account is "skrillex.com", the website of a popular Dubstep music producer.
*@RipDubstep only has one Tweet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwurK0_TMjk
**This video, titled "i wonder what it says????", has the full melody swap of "Meet the Flintstones" and "Mario Circuit".
***The video's description is "yo dis sum lore shit?? oohohohohohohohhwwwwwwowwoww"
***The video contains the title screen of 7 GRAND DAD with a filter while this string of numbers is shown panning from the right:
083 116 111 112 032 097 115 115 117 109 105 110 103 032 101 118 101 114 121 116 104 105 110 103 032 116 111 032 098 101 032 108 111 114 101 033 
****This binary translates to "Stop assuming everything to be lore"
***The end of the video is the word "heck" in bold red letters.
== Trivia ==
*The accounts, pastebin, Tweets, and YouTube video used in the mini-ARG were made on February 6, 2017, exactly two months before the rip's upload date.
*The second Tweet of @Dub_Rip is addressed to Xander Mobus, the voice actor for the Super Smash Bros. announcer. The Tweet (posted February 10, 2017) states:
can i please get a voice recording of you saying "Bird Up" ????
*The uploader of the "i wonder what it says????" video is "l.ronhoyabembe", which is used in the Eric Andre skit "Eric Andre - Black Scientologists" as the "true" name of L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology.
*With the conclusion of the "ARG", this text was added to the ARG document:
The “lore” has has completed. Congrats Congrats!
I tried to tell you this whole time that this means nothing and you’re wasting your time.
You guys are still amazing and and at SilvaGunner still appreciate you. Much love. <3
