Director's Notes (Paper Yoshi (talk))

Hello, dear readers, and welcome to the April Issue of Pipe Plaza!! I have sad news to share with you, so let's get to that now.

As some users may know, our former Statistics Manager, RandomYoshi (talk), has left the community, which means he has also left his position as Anniversary Announcements writer in the Pipe Plaza team. It's very sad to see a beloved member go, and I personally wish him the best of luck on his life. However, that does not mean Anniversary Announcements is vacant once again, as Turboo (talk) has taken over RandomYoshi's position, in order to keep readers informed of everything anniversary-related.

Section of the Month

The SotM poll for the March Issue got 25 votes, four more than the February poll.

The March Section of the Month, with 13 votes (52% of the total), is...

...Upcoming Games, for the sixth time overall, the third in a row (a new record, by the way)!!!!!!

As its name says, Upcoming Games, written by myself, Paper Yoshi (talk), covers news on the upcoming Mario games, listing details regarding those games, such as titles and release dates. Last month, we talked about the Nintendo Direct conference from February 14th, in which a ton of new games and new features for previously announced games were unveiled by Game Producer Shigeru Miyamoto and President Satoru Iwata. Community Report, written by Spotlight Manager YoshiKong (talk), got second place, with 6 votes (24%). RandomYoshi (talk) clinched a second Top 3 win before leaving: his last Anniversary Announcements section got third place, with 3 votes (12%).


Well, I guess that's all, folks!! Now go on and read this issue!!

Monthly Report (Paper Yoshi (talk))

Hello, and welcome to the April Issue of Monthly Report! This is Paper Yoshi, here to show you the wiki statistics for April, along with March-April and February-April comparisons.

(Credit goes to Stooben Rooben (talk) and Super Mario Bros. (talk) for the table coding. Stooben originally created it when writing this section back in Issues XXIII, XXV and XXVI, and SMB based his coding for Issues XXXIX, XL and XLI – which I am using in this issue – off of Stooben's coding.)

Community Report (YoshiKong (talk))

Hey and welcome to the Community Report, here to keep you updated on the latest wiki happenings. So to begin, we've only had a slight change in MarioWiki Policy this month. Per a recently passed proposal, all fan votes for FA nominations will be removed on sight.

These are the most recent proposals which have reached a consensus.

And the following are talk page proposals which have recently reached a consensus.

We now bring you the talk page proposals currently in progress.

And lastly, these are the most recent changes we've had to user rights.

And that's it for this month's Community Report! We hope that you enjoy the rest of the issue.

Forum Update (MrConcreteDonkey (talk))

Hey everyone, welcome to another edition of the Forum Update. As you may have noticed, April Fools day took place earlier this month. To celebrate this, I'll be doing something. But enough of this, why don't we see what happened in March on the Super Mario Boards?

Top Stories
Super Mario Bros. (talk) resigned from his position as an administrator.

A tab linking to the chatroom was added under the banner. Yeah, that's how boring March was. That seriously is the second most interesting thing that happened. I'll have to make up news if we keep being this boring.

Souda-kun's temporary ban expired.

Statistics
In March, 542 topics were made - that's the most so far this year. 30832 posts were also made - that's also the most so far this year. Maybe there's some sort of connection? I'm scared. Either way, 38 users - also the most so far in 2013 - registered in March. Thankfully, only 123 was the highest amount of users online. We are safe from the cupboardmen today. But they'll be back. Probably.

Forum Games
Smasher's User Big Brother 5 is currently at Week 3. Xerneas (Baby Mario Bloops) was the first out, evicted on Week 1. NSY (New Super Yoshi) was expelled on Week 2, and Phantom L (Lily) was evicted later that week. RandomYoshi finally walked earlier this week when he left the forum. In Toad85's User Big Brother World, NSY walked out of the competition in the first week, later in which Pokemon Trainer Red was evicted, and, at the end of Week 2, RandomYoshi was evicted. It's currently at Week 4. Time Turner's (GreenDisaster) User Total Drama Action also started, and BMB won Virion's (New Super Mario) User Trivial Pursuit.

Currently ongoing Mafias are Saul Slendamann's (my) Mafia 2101, Time Turner's DigiMafia Adventure 2.0, Lily's (and, up until recently, co-hosted by RandomYoshi) Super Smash Bros. Brawl Mafia and Virion's Magnificent Mafia 2.0.

  • Rocker Mafia, hosted by Garrus Vakarian (Rocker64) ended in the Innocents and Smasher winning.
  • The Innocents also won Gundam Tanaka's (Nabber) Forum's Choice Mafia.
  • The Innocents also won Smg2daisy's My Little Pony: Friendship is Mafia...again?.
  • Souda-kun's Ball Pit Mafia, NSY's Another Team-Based Mafia, Spike's (Yoshi K) Yu-Gi-Oh Season 1 Mafia and RandomYoshi's Mathemafia were cancelled.

Well, that's all for now. Have a great April.
