Hello, (your name here)!  Stumpers here!  I've been around the brighter sides of the Internet and I'll tell you, this looks like the biggest time consuming site I've found yet!  [[World of Warcraft]]?! What's that?!  I'm into the WIKI! Anyway, I'm a perfectionist by nature, and few things are more perfection-able than a Mario-related Wiki page. Be forewarned, kiddies... this place will not look the same when I'm done with it!

{{quote2|I'm a bureaucrat now?  Who's smart idea was THAT?! Just kidding.  I hope to serve you well!|[[User:Stumpers|Stumpers]]|''Thought of the Moment''}}
One dark, story night at the swamp... a fierce wind blew. The wind pushed up the swamp slop onto a giant rock, and it seemed to form into a human figure *snigger*.  And then... *ha, ha* it turned in to STUMPERS! *WHOOO! HA, HA! SNORT! ROFL*


No, seriously... I've been playing video games since I was a meer lad of somewhere around seven years of age.  Having an older brother gave me the distinct advantage of never having wanted a videogame system before one was plopped down on the living room table and hooked up to an eight inch TV.  My brother and I loved our Sega Genesis, and we never let go!  Well, actually... then game the Nintendo 64, and we were all like, "Sega? What's that?"  As my brother grew away from video games, I grew closer.  And it wasn't long until the N64 told us it was *snigger* PREGNANT! *ROFL* Yeah... that didn't happen.

I loved to write for Wikipedia.  However, when they started putting all of the Mario articles into several really big ones, I was through.  Then I found MarioWiki, and things started all over again.
==What Can I Do For You?==
As a bureaucrat, it is my duty to help users such as yourself with any problems you might have.  This means questions on policy, editing, inter-user issues, and so on.  If I do not have an answer, I can direct you to someone who does.  So, fire away by posting on my [[User talk:Stumpers|talk page]], provided your question is not, "How do I post a message on a talk page."


=Favorites=
==Subpages==
[[Image:Normal daisy.jpg|thumb|right|120px|Step aside Peach, or Daisy's gonna kick yo' petite boo-tay!]]
In addition to my [[User talk:Stumpers|talk page]] and its archives, there are two more pages in my userspace.
*Mario Character: [['''Daisy''']] She's hot and spunky! Do I need any more reasons?
*[[User:Stumpers/Stumpers's Wiki News|Stumpers's Wiki News]]: The final resting place of my discontinued feature, "Stumpers's Wiki News." With SWN, I would make a post to inform other users of notable edits I had made that day. When I grew tired of it, I asked if anyone would mind if I discontinued it. No one did, so SWN came to an end.
*Video Game: [['''Paper Mario''']] My first RPG! I must have played it at least five times, but probably more!
*[[User:Stumpers/Test|Test]]: My test page. I use it in conjunction with the [[MarioWiki:Proposals|proposals]] page when I need to illustrate what I'm thinking.
*Food: '''Thai Fried Rice''' Keep your Micky-Dee's and KFC! Pad Thai, Etc. is where it's at!  Yes... the "Etc." is part of the restaurant name.
*Book: '''Watership Down''' It's about rabbits on a quest to flee from a doomed land and then to find hot rabbit chicks! And it's not like Red Wall!
*Hangin' Out Style Thang: [['''Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix|DDR''']], of course!  Normal DDR is better than Mario Mix for me.


Hello, everyone. Stumpers here. I've been a fan of the Super Mario Bros. series since I got [[Mario Party]] for the [[Nintendo 64|N64]].  From there I went on to get [[Super Mario 64]], [[Mario Kart 64]], [[Mario Tennis]], and [[Yoshi's Story]], to name a few.
==Stumpers' Featured Articles==
[[File:Tetris DS NA Box Art.jpg|thumb|200px|If it weren't for Stumpers, [[Tetris DS|this game's]] article would be merged with [[Game Sightings]], also known as the [[Void]].]]
This is a list of my ten favorite articles that I've played a major role in.
#[[Mama Mario]]
#''[[Tetris DS]]''
#[[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]
#''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''
#[[Mushroom Kingdom]]
#[[Super Mario Bros. Stamps]]
#[[MC Ballyhoo]]
#[[Ninja (Final Fantasy)]]
#[[Vim Factory]]
#[[Peach Blossom]]


My favorite Mario game is probably [[Mario Tennis]], [[Yoshi's Story]], [[Paper Mario]], or any of the [[Mario RPGs]] or [[Mario Kart|Mario Karts]] I've played (all but the SNES ones).  Not very specific, is it?  It's hard to just pick one, isn't it? ;)
==Do You Know Me on the Internet?==
Here are a few of my current aliases.  If you see me, drop me a line!
*AIM: spazafrazz
*Nintendo Forums (whenever they come back...): Stumper
*[[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]
**[[Game Sightings|Animal Crossing: Wild World]]: Matt
**''[[Mario Kart DS]]'': Whettam


I've been a fan of Rareware from when I first played [[Diddy Kong Racing]] to when they left Nintendo.  It's too much money to get both a [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] and a Xbox.  Besides, what would I get?  All they came out with was this game called Grabbed by the Goolies.  I've never been a first person shooter fan, so Halo, the best reason to own an Xbox, many would argue, would be out of the question.
===Brief History of Naming===
*"Stumper" era: I named myself after a character I invented for a point-and-click adventure game made with PowerPoint.  The reason I chose this was because I couldn't think of a better name.
*"Stumpers" era: The addition of the "s" to my name was a mistake on my part.  The reason behind it is that "Stumpers" refers to the game that the character "Stumper" stars in.  Actually, the reason the game wasn't called "Stumper" was a mistake on my part... so it's a mistake based on a mistake.
*"spazafrazz" era: This was first used for my AIM screenname.  I actually thought of a better name this time, because it was ''after'' I had been nicknamed "Spaz"... by two separate people independently.
*"Matt" era: Only used for ''Animal Crossing: Wild World'', I called myself this because the in this game your in-game name doubles as your screenname.  So, I could either have the villagers calling me "spazafrazz" or have everyone online know my real first name.  I chose the latter because, seriously, there are about eight million "Matt"s in this world, so why does it ''matt''er?  Yes, you can call me Matt now if you want because you were nice enough to read my page this far down.
*"Whettam" era: Whettam, pronounced "wet ham" is my full first name, Matthew, spelled backwards.  I didn't want to let my Nintendo identity be affected by a name that had, over time, come to bother me.  Whettam is also a ficticious character as part of a massive in-joke with my family.


After getting ticked off because Mario pages were getting consolidated on Wikipedia, I stumbled across Super Mario Wiki, and all became clear.
What?  You want a reward for reading all of that slop?  Whiner.  Okay... you can see my favorite [https://www.marioboards.com Mario Wiki Forum] avatar... which [[User:Wayoshi|Wayoshi]] banned for being "too creepy".


My hobbies include running (not competitively), art (or cartooning :D), flash animation (just started :D), and of course video games.  Sometimes I get a book or two that I actually like, but that's pretty rare.  English class ruined reading for fun for me.  Some of my faves off hand: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter (numbers 1-3.  wouldn't recomend 4-6), many of Daniel Pinkwater's novels, and Watership Down.
http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p38/StumpersII/untitled.jpg
 
For those wondering why I call myself Stumpers, it's not because I'm so weird that I'm a "stumper" to figure out.  Stumpers is a game series of mine, based on puzzles or RPG-style gameplay.  The main character's name was Stumper.  How clever.  The name Stumper''s'' came about because of a typo on my part that I realized too late.  I figured, "what the heck" and went with it, though.  They were made on PowerPoint, and it looks like the last game will be flash (RPGs are really tough!). Perhaps in the future I will put one or two of them up online. I was worried about copywrites until I learned that, apparently, everything you create is automatic copywrite, unless you made it at work and there is some sort of company policy for that kind of thing. Then the company might own it! >_<

What Can I Do For You?

As a bureaucrat, it is my duty to help users such as yourself with any problems you might have. This means questions on policy, editing, inter-user issues, and so on. If I do not have an answer, I can direct you to someone who does. So, fire away by posting on my talk page, provided your question is not, "How do I post a message on a talk page."

Subpages

In addition to my talk page and its archives, there are two more pages in my userspace.

  • Stumpers's Wiki News: The final resting place of my discontinued feature, "Stumpers's Wiki News." With SWN, I would make a post to inform other users of notable edits I had made that day. When I grew tired of it, I asked if anyone would mind if I discontinued it. No one did, so SWN came to an end.
  • Test: My test page. I use it in conjunction with the proposals page when I need to illustrate what I'm thinking.

Stumpers' Featured Articles

  1. Mama Mario
  2. Tetris DS
  3. Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection
  4. Mario Strikers Charged
  5. Mushroom Kingdom
  6. Super Mario Bros. Stamps
  7. MC Ballyhoo
  8. Ninja (Final Fantasy)
  9. Vim Factory
  10. Peach Blossom

Do You Know Me on the Internet?

Here are a few of my current aliases. If you see me, drop me a line!

Brief History of Naming

  • "Stumper" era: I named myself after a character I invented for a point-and-click adventure game made with PowerPoint. The reason I chose this was because I couldn't think of a better name.
  • "Stumpers" era: The addition of the "s" to my name was a mistake on my part. The reason behind it is that "Stumpers" refers to the game that the character "Stumper" stars in. Actually, the reason the game wasn't called "Stumper" was a mistake on my part... so it's a mistake based on a mistake.
  • "spazafrazz" era: This was first used for my AIM screenname. I actually thought of a better name this time, because it was after I had been nicknamed "Spaz"... by two separate people independently.
  • "Matt" era: Only used for Animal Crossing: Wild World, I called myself this because the in this game your in-game name doubles as your screenname. So, I could either have the villagers calling me "spazafrazz" or have everyone online know my real first name. I chose the latter because, seriously, there are about eight million "Matt"s in this world, so why does it matter? Yes, you can call me Matt now if you want because you were nice enough to read my page this far down.
  • "Whettam" era: Whettam, pronounced "wet ham" is my full first name, Matthew, spelled backwards. I didn't want to let my Nintendo identity be affected by a name that had, over time, come to bother me. Whettam is also a ficticious character as part of a massive in-joke with my family.

What? You want a reward for reading all of that slop? Whiner. Okay... you can see my favorite Mario Wiki Forum avatar... which Wayoshi banned for being "too creepy".
