Re: Archive

It's here now, but you delete the redirect and you should get a link to the archive from this page. Yoshi876 (talk)

Looks good to me :) Yoshi876 (talk)

This template should be put on the in the archive, just change my username to yours. Yoshi876 (talk)

Good good. Yoshi876 (talk)

I'm creating some templates for a proposal I'm going to make, but I'm waiting a reply that will tell me where the colour map is so I can code the background colours and text properly. Yoshi876 (talk)

I can't remember it, but I do love it. Yoshi876 (talk)

That is a good theme, but one theme I like is from Mario Strikers Charged http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HvqGlz7_Iw&list=FLBmlUYecS53YUtBlvs5Yfmw&index=6 Yoshi876 (talk)

I just always loved it, but it's the worst course. Yoshi876 (talk)

It is, no gimmicks or audience. My favourite is Thunder Island. Yoshi876 (talk)

Best moment, was I scored, then got hit off the stage. Yoshi876 (talk)

I hate that as well, and I wasn't sure whether you had an image lined up, so I decided it might be an idea. Yoshi876 (talk)

I personally would upload the file, because then *insert logical argument here*, or use existing images like I did with Villager. Yoshi876 (talk)

I hate Spiny Shells and I would probably upload an image before creating the article :P Yoshi876 (talk)

It'll probably be there though :(, and you could go into the editing make the article, don't save it, upload the file and then put in the article and then save the article. Yoshi876 (talk)

It's because it's not multiplayer on the DS so you're not getting in the way. Yoshi876 (talk)

Only with Luigi. Yoshi876 (talk)

First one has more levels, but I like 2's boss battles. Yoshi876 (talk)

I like it coin collecting is tedious, but still. Yoshi876 (talk)

Wasn't long ago, can't really imagine an LP of a sports game. Yoshi876 (talk)

What do they do? I can only think of doing the Strikers cup and challenges mode. Yoshi876 (talk)

Guess you'll find out soon. Yoshi876 (talk)

I love the Luigi's Mansion games, I remember watching someone's LP of it and I remember loving it. Yoshi876 (talk)

There are quite a lot of differences. Yoshi876 (talk)

True, I finally got the new Animal Crossing today. Yoshi876 (talk)

The main goal is to pay off your debt, but you can also fill up the museum and max out the catalouge, but in the new game you're mayor, so you get to improve the town. I find it really relaxing which helps me. Yoshi876 (talk)

If you love relaxing, it's your game, but don't expect hardcore action from it. Yoshi876 (talk)

Same all those first person shooters just get repetitive overtime. Yoshi876 (talk)

Animal Crossing: Wild World, that still occupys my DS slot occasionally, but you're not the mayor on that game. Yoshi876 (talk)

But it's still a good game. Yoshi876 (talk)

So far I am, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Yoshi876 (talk)

You're friends with a few of my friends. Yoshi876 (talk)

That's 3/5 of the people in my userbox tower. Yoshi876 (talk)

We only became friends recently. Yoshi876 (talk)

I've thought pf him as a friend for ages, because he's so helpful. I probably wouldn't be able to do most of the things I can do now if he hadn't helped me, he even gave me the welcome template on my first talkpage. Yoshi876 (talk)

That sounds about right. Yoshi876 (talk)

I know of him, but I can't say we've interacted much. Yoshi876 (talk)

Mine was actually YoshiKong, he messaged me when I was still an IP address. Yoshi876 (talk)

You can message IPs, it's just like a normal talkpage except it doesn't usually get very big. Yoshi876 (talk)

You'd need to find the IP address really. Yoshi876 (talk)

Yep. Yoshi876 (talk)

Especially on the Mario wiki. Yoshi876 (talk)

I can't say how much I've learnt, but it is a lot and it also includes technical aspects of the wiki. Yoshi876 (talk)

One of the most important things on this wiki, the others being the information and the people who put it there. Yoshi876 (talk)

I mean that there are 3 important things on the wiki and the that those are the 3 important things. Yoshi876 (talk)

It'd be a blank page probably, went to Thorpe Park today. Yoshi876 (talk)

It is probably one of the best, it has a lot of famous rides in the UK. And they break down as much, but queues can be quite annoying. Yoshi876 (talk)

No, it was our Yr. 11 leaving trip. Yoshi876 (talk)

No, it's the final year of secondary school. Yoshi876 (talk)

Depends on whether Grade 11 is the final year of high school, I think. I'm not that clue up on the American education system, but I think high school would be the equivalent to secondary school. Yoshi876 (talk)

It'd be the equivalent of Grade 12 then, and then we go onto sixthform/college and then university. Yoshi876 (talk)

Nice, I once watched an LP of Luigi's Mansion, and I enjoyed the whole thing. Yoshi876 (talk)

Yeah, it was alright. Yoshi876 (talk)

I guess we do :P Yoshi876 (talk)

I don't have any vacations planned, but I am on Summer holidays till September. Yoshi876 (talk).

The only reason I have such a long break is because I'm done with my exams, so there's no point for me to be there until September when the new school year starts. Yoshi876 (talk)

Yep, I'm going to our school's sixthform. Yoshi876 (talk)

I'll be taking my A-levels. Yoshi876 (talk)

They're qualifications that are looked at when applying for university or jobs and they are valued more than GCSEs. Yoshi876 (talk)

Qualifications that are looked at by employers and universities, the higher they are the more likely you'll get in, A-levels are the upgrade. Yoshi876 (talk)

Do you know what subjects you'll be taking? Yoshi876 (talk)

Re: Hot Hidden-Coin Hunt

Lol, someone did it for me. But I'm glad we could help!

Made it meself ;)

Sounds cool. Also, thinking about it were you referring to my sig image or the pic on my userpage?

Sure man! Take this.

This user is a fantastic friend of YoshiKong (talk).

RE: Challenges

Yeah, I'm planning to write more of those. There are a lot left though, so maybe we could both work together? And also, the images aren't that fancy, I just got took a screenshot from a YouTube video. Anyways, if you're fine with it, I'll continue making the articles. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 19:20, 15 June 2013 (EDT)

I'll write two or three articles tomorrow and then upload the images. I don't write the articles in order though. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 21:09, 15 June 2013 (EDT)

Here's the files for No-Cash Dash, Poison-Swamp Scramble, and Swing Into Action, respectively.

No prob. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 10:11, 17 June 2013 (EDT)

I'll try to get some maybe later today. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 11:30, 18 June 2013 (EDT)

Place <div class=shroomsummer> at the top of your talk page. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 11:45, 18 June 2013 (EDT)

--driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 09:51, 22 June 2013 (EDT)

Haha no prob. After all, we're working on this "project" together. Also, have you ever considered joining the forums? --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 11:38, 22 June 2013 (EDT)

Just a place where you can discuss Mario games, etc. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 16:17, 23 June 2013 (EDT)

Yeah, that'll work. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 17:02, 24 June 2013 (EDT)

--driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 10:13, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

No problem; I'll do the other two 1-UP Rally levels. Also, there are Special and Boost Mode challenges, should we split those in the same way? Also, I'll be gone next week due to a trip (I'll have internet access but I don't know whether I'll have the time to create any pages), so if I can't do it, would you mind doing the levels for me? Thanks. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 11:44, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

That's weird, you get back from your trip same time as me! I just moved form Upstate New York last year, so I'm going on a trip there to meet some friends and other stuff. And are you serious that you live in the Midwest, because same here! (I live in Michigan)

Also, S78 (talk) already created the articles I was planning to do. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 16:04, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

He already apologized, saying he didn't know that this was ongoing. Yeah, I'm from Syracuse, but currently I live here (I can't give my exact location), where winters last until May! And also, it's funny how on my trip, I'm going east while you're going west!

--driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 20:20, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

This place is good to visit, but not to live IMO. And I've lived near the great lakes my whole life, so I'm used to this. (brrr). And my town is really small. Like just today, I went to see a movie, and there were only like, three other people there! O__O --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 20:34, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

My town itself is really small, but the whole micropolitan area has around 30,000 people. The movie I saw was Monsters University (a pretty good film actually), which just came out a few days ago. There was no one else in the theater so I was thinking "Private screening yay" and then a few more came in right after the ads ended. But really, I've never seen a movie as new as this get such a low attendance. If you asked when I was leaving for my trip, then it's this weekend. Anyways, now that S78 did the 1-UP Rally pages, we can split up the Special articles, so I'll do Spin Jump, Get Dizzy and Wobble and Rock, and you can do Castle Crawl and Cashless Castle Crawl, I'll get the images by later today. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 09:37, 26 June 2013 (EDT)

There are only four Special articles, not 5, so we have to split them 2-and-2. I'll upload the images now. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 11:16, 26 June 2013 (EDT)

Images for Castle Crawl and Cashless Castle Crawl, respectively:

• CastleCrawl.jpg
• CashlessCastleCrawl.jpg

--driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 11:28, 26 June 2013 (EDT)

Sorry for the late reply. I've done both of my articles, so now all that's left are the Boost Mode challenges, of which there are twelve, so we'll have to do six each. Since I'm leaving for my trip on Saturday, the only days I have left to work are toay and tomorrow (Saturday), so if I don't finish my articles, would you mind doing them for me? Thanks. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 12:39, 28 June 2013 (EDT)

Yeah, I could do that. And I'll get the Boost Mode images uploaded tomorrow, if not later today. And have a happy Fourth as well! --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 13:01, 28 June 2013 (EDT)

Oh, and I just realized, since we're almost to the end of this "project", why not celebrate with some cake? (It would be more appropriate after completing the articles but since neither of us will be here)....

--driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 13:01, 28 June 2013 (EDT)

Yeah, that cake is my favorite kind. It sucks that the figurines are inedible though ;P

Anyways, you can do The High Road, Three Legged Lava Race, Fuzzy Cliff Climb, Thwomp Castle Cash Flow, Cloudy with a Chance of Fire, and Ultimate Boost Blast (the last of the Boost Block ones), here are the images:

And as for the Goal Ring picture you requested, I tried to crop it out so it would have just the ring but I could never get the whole part of the ring :( You might want to ask YoshiKong (talk) though, he's kind of an image expert. For the Challenge Mode game mode articles, I don't really know but I kinda think it's unnecessary considering all of them are already listed on the page...I don't know though, I'll have to think about it. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 20:38, 29 June 2013 (EDT)

LOL, I still have two hours before I leave (I hit the road at 9AM eastern). I will have internet access tomorrow, so I'll try to get the articles completed then. And if not, you could do them, right?

And, uh...by "Mario would taste like cherry" you actually meant Template:Plainlink, right? :P And since I haven't asked yet, are you doing anything fun on your trip? --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 07:27, 30 June 2013 (EDT)

I have Internet for a few hours today so I'll get to doing the articles. If you need to finish them just get the images from my recent uploads page. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 07:04, 1 July 2013 (EDT)

Yeah, I did. I'm in New York now. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 19:47, 1 July 2013 (EDT)

• throws confetti* I've completed mine as well. And also remember how I told you last week about how I saw Monsters U on opening day and here were only like 3 others in the theatre? Today I saw the Despicable Me 2 premiere here in Buffalo and the theatre was jam packed! Talk about population :P And also, Pinkie Pie (talk) already created Icicle Falls before I got to it. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 21:43, 2 July 2013 (EDT)

U stalker o__O Yeah I live close to there. Now if you'll excuse me I've got a vacation to enjoy (Super Mario Sunshine reference)! I might come on the wiki maybe once or twice a day, but I won't be doing anything major. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 07:52, 3 July 2013 (EDT)

RE: Swing into Action!

No, because the exclamation point from the "Walking Piranha Plants!" word already suffices as the end of the sentence --- no periods after exclamation points. It's a basic rule. --- ThePremiumYoshi 11:19, 18 June 2013 (EDT)

Re: MarioWiki:Maintenance/Main Page

Good catch! It's fixed now.

RE: MarioKartManiac & Yoshi876 Discussion (July 2013)

Yep, because I'm guessing like in England you can drop subjects when you get older. Yoshi876 (talk)

Fair enough, my userpage states my preferred career choices. Yoshi876 (talk)

What games would you do, Mario Kart games don't seem to be good for an LP. Yoshi876 (talk)

I've always been slightly interested in the Scribblenauts series, but I've never actually bought one of the games. Yoshi876 (talk)

I'm not near any shops at the moment, I might have to look in and see if one is getting sold. Yoshi876 (talk)

I'll probably pick up the most recent one, and I guess I'll see you later. Yoshi876 (talk)

Marvel is alright, I watch the odd one here and there, but I don't read comic books. Yoshi876 (talk)

I enjoy a lot of other things over them. Yoshi876 (talk)

Mario Kart is good, everyone loves it. Yoshi876 (talk)

I don't usually plan my edits, I have some thing that I will do on my userpage, but usually I just occasionally hit random page and see if I can find a mistake or revert vandalism. Also have you seen MarioWiki:BJAODN and MarioWiki:Proposals? I think you might like those, especially the former. Yoshi876 (talk)

To make a proposal you basically decide what category it falls under, then you edit that section making your proposal an why you think it's a good idea, basically when I make mine, I usually copy the deadline and proposer stuff from another proposal but change it accordingly. But obviously just look at how others are structured so you know how to structure yours. And BJAODN is the place where really bad, but funny edits are archived. It's quite a laugh to read through, and I have even found some stuff to go in there. Yoshi876 (talk)

Rule 15 states that there shouldn't be proposals about making new articles unless there is a major disagreement on whether it should be added. I don't think anyone on the wiki would say no to that page so I suggest to just go ahead and make it. Yoshi876 (talk)

If you have an idea that would improve the wiki, but would need support to do so rather than just doing it, like creating a new template, changing an already existing feature. Yoshi876 (talk)

See you then, I made a new article today. Yoshi876 (talk)

Yes I am, I also applied to write for The Shroom yesterday, and enjoy your vacation. Yoshi876 (talk)

RE: Title Error

Done.

Re: Goal Ring

No problem, how does this look?

Shokora (talk · edits) 17:25, 2 July 2013 (EDT)

The previous header was getting too long

...so I made this one. I didn't put that quote on my talk page, it's just the vacation template, lol. But it's true that I like Super Mario Sunshine. maybe it's not my favorite game anymore (need to update that on my page) :P Anyways, happy Fourth! Are you doing anything interesting? I'm seeing a parade here in Syracuse. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 09:14, 4 July 2013 (EDT)
