Hello everybody! Welcome to Quiz, here I quiz you on the Mario series. Below you will find three easy questions, three medium questions and three hard questions. Your challenge is to answer them without looking at the answers that will be provided (though nothing is stopping you from actually taking a peek at them, but you’ll be the one who has to live with it).
Easy
What item in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U allows you to shoot gale-like wind?
Where can Mario find problems to solve in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door?
What Professor E. Gadd invention in Luigi's Mansion is based off of a handheld?
Medium
What is the name of the mole enemy in Donkey Kong Country Returns?
What Luigi attack features the Luigis standing on each other in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team?
What is the first level to feature Piranha Plants in Super Mario Bros. Wii?
Hard
What is the latest game to feature Platypunk?
Who has the nickname “The Duke of Drains”?
What game featured Wario, Samus and Olimar in its beta elements?
Mario seems ready for some more Guess Who!, and so should you! Dance along with him if you want everyone else in the room to look at you strangely.
Welcome to Guess Who! with your host, Andymii! Here, we challenge your knowledge of Mario characters by giving you clues and hints and then asking you what the character is. There are three levels; can you solve them all?
This month's theme is Allies. That's right: all characters this month have been of assistance to Mario at some point or another! Use this knowledge to your advantage while guessing.
And what about this: if you manage to get the warm-up, three levels, plus the bonus right in one go, post a message dealing with your achievement here for a sweet surprise on your own talk page, plus a shout-out next issue! (Unregistered users, please provide a name you wish to be referred to before submitting.)

Hello Shroom readers. Two months ago I started a section called Non-Mario Trivia and surprisingly enough I’m continuing this little section by talking about one of my favorite childhood things: Robot Wars. So, did you know…
…that the robot Behemoth entered the most competitions and lost the most matches of any robot?
…that the Robot Stinger was barred from entering the 7th series of robot wars because it didn’t have a moving weapon?
…that the only robot to win more than one UK series championship was Chaos 2 who won the 3rd and 4th wars?
…that no robot that ever received the 8th seed ever made the series semifinals?
…that Morits beat Panic Attack in the War of Independence semifinal by exactly one point?
…that only two non flippers ever knocked a robot out of the arena? Those being Behemoth who threw two out (The Spider and Crushstacean) and Storm who knocked out The Steel Avenger.
