The 'Shroom:Issue 135/Staff Notes
Hey all and welcome to this summer special! This is out there to celebrate Luigi, who despite being characterized as overshadowed keeps winning the awards. Anyway, I want to give a special thanks to Superchao (talk), Gabumon (talk), Lakituthequick (talk), for being a huge help in putting this together. Thanks to all our writers and audience as well, we couldn't have done it without you. Please enjoy! 
—Meta Knight, Director
Hello, 'Shroom readers! Welcome to the summer special of the 'Shroom, or at least as special as we could make it. We've got a few important things to run down - the Community Awards Dossier is up, helping give you informed votes on the community awards this year. We've also got the Poll Committee Election, so if you want to run for PC for the next twelve months, now's your chance to make a grab for power! And if you don't want to do any of that, then you are least have an issue you can read.
Additionally, Gabumon (talk) has chosen to depart from his position as Graphic Design Manager. We'd like to thank him for a lot of impressive work in his 'Shroom tenure, and wish him the best of luck!
