C5. Favorite 'Shroom Team
This award honors the different teams that are a part of The 'Shroom.
| Nominee |
Summary/Description
|
| Fake News |
Started in the first official 'Shroom release by the now-banned user WarioLoaf (talk) on January 6th, 2007, Fake News was the first of the teams to be founded, designed to allow writers to flex their fiction-writing muscles by making up news stories about upcoming Mario game releases or inventing creative stories surrounding the various characters of the Mario universe. Having survived the long test of time, Fake News continues to be a huge draw for the newsletter. The team is currently headed by Interim Director, Waluigi Time (talk) (who also writes Mushroom Kingdom Smackdown and Consumer Corner), and is sustained by its writers Yoshi876 (talk) (Obituaries), Quizmelon (talk) (TV Tomorrow), Ninja Squid (talk) (The Odyssey of a Squid), Shoey (talk) (Mushroom Tribune), Hooded Pitohui (talk) (Mushroom Tribune), Roserade (talk) (The Mushroom Marquee), and GBAToad (talk) (Horrorscopes). Here is a historical list of Fake News sections.
|
| Fun Stuff |
Fun Stuff began in the third issue under the name of Fun Section, founded by the 'Shroom’s director at the time, Plumber (talk), on March 3rd, 2007. Fun Stuff was created to provide interactive games and activities for the community, such as riddles, trivia, or quizzes, eventually growing over time to incorporate visual games such as crosswords and picture matching games. Fun Stuff is currently run by Roserade (talk), and it is supported by its writers BBQ Turtle (talk) (Anagrams), Ninja Squid (talk) (Hiding Koopa), Goombuigi (talk) (Picross), Shoey (talk) (Word Search and Trivia), MarioMorty (talk) (Crossword), WildWario (talk) (Musical Quiz) and FunkyK38 (talk) (Where in the Marioverse is Carmen Sandiego?). Here is a historical list of Fun Stuff sections.
|
| Palette Swap |
Originally under the moniker of Art and Music, and later Music and Artwork, before reaching its current name, Palette Swap was created in the 29th issue by the then-current 'Shroom Director Super Mario Bros. (talk) on August 13th, 2009. Palette Swap’s focus is also on the community’s creativity, but with a focus on multimedia such as music and artworks, both official and fan-made. While it was initially simply a showcase of screenshots and artwork from around the Wiki, the past few years have seen more substance added to the team, with commentary, user-created music and fanart, and occasionally artwork competitions. In recent years, Palette Swap has expanded its definition of art, opening the team up to include sections on not just visual art, but forms of art like website design or user-made levels in games. Palette Swap is currently directed by its longtime Director, FunkyK38 (talk), and its current writers are Yoshi876 (talk) (What's On the Box?), Magolor04726 (talk) (World of Plight), Lakituthequick (talk) (Site Seeing), Goombuigi (talk) (Super Mario Maker Showcase), winstein (talk) (Drawn and Pressed), Long John Spaghetti (talk) (Luigi and Associates Detective Agency), RubberLuigi (talk) (RubberLuigi's Reads), and Waluigi Time (talk) (Waluigi Time Comic and Shmaluigi, Private Investigator). Here is a historical list of Palette Swap sections.
|
| Pipe Plaza |
Pipe Plaza actually used to be a separate sector of the Wiki, a portal with the intention of keeping the community up to date on recent events and various aspects of the wiki in need of tidying up or improvement. Due to its considerable inactivity, it was decided via Proposal to add it in to The 'Shroom in the 32nd issue run by Super Mario Bros. (talk), but it didn't get any content until the the next issue, whereupon Marioguy1 (talk) was added as a co-director. Over time, Pipe Plaza has moved from being a statistics hub for the community to being the general factual team of The 'Shroom. Pipe Plaza is currently headed by Zange (talk), and its current writers are PanchamBro (talk) (NIWA News and That NIWA List), the Poll Committee (Poll Committee Discussion), Hooded Pitohui (talk) (Forum Update), GPM1000 (talk) (Mario Calendar), Shoey (talk) (What's in a Campaign?), WildWario (talk) (New Articles) MightyMario (talk) (Roleplay Update) and Lakituthequick (talk) (Anniversary Announcements [seasonal]). Here is a historical list of Pipe Plaza sections.
|
| Critic Corner |
This Team was founded in the 64th issue special by the former Affiliates Manager Crocodile Dippy (talk) on July, 2014. Critic Corner was devised to help reduce the crowding of the main page by pulling all review and opinion sections into a single page. As a result, Critic Corner tends to be the wordiest of the teams. It started the trend for updated team designs due in large part to the coding assistance of 2257 (talk). The team continues to have plentiful sections by many dedicated writers. Critic Corner is run by Anton (talk) (who also writes Anton's Half-Baked Reviews), and its current writers are FunkyK38 (talk) (Book Reviews and Graphic Novel Review), Yoshi876 (talk) (Pokédex Power), Zange (talk) (K-Pop Album Reviews), Shoey (talk) (A Report on the Effectiveness of Power-Ups and Van Shoeul's House of Ghouls), MrConcreteDonkey (talk) ('Shroom FM), SonicMario (talk) (All-Time Smash Merit Ranking), and Ninelevendo (talk) (Super Ninelevendo Entertainment Reviews). In addition, the team welcomes additional one-time reviews from a variety of authors. Here is a historical list of Critic Corner sections.
|
| Strategy Wing |
The most recent Team, Strategy Wing was debuted in the 100th Issue by former Director Stooben Rooben (talk) as a place to get together sections related to tips, tricks, hints, cheats, guides, walkthroughs, and more. It provides analytical and instructional sections, instructing readers on how to carry out tasks, providing tips, or doing deep dives into the history of a topic. The past year has seen the team expand its coverage thanks to a core group of dedicated writers. Strategy Wing is currently directed by Hooded Pitohui (talk) (who also writes Pitohui's Pokémon Academy), and its current permanent writers are Yoshi876 (talk) (Racing Like the Staff), Ray Trace (talk) (SIMulation), Shoey (talk) (The Greatest Quest), Koops (talk) (Koops, Your Emblem is on Fire), ZelenPixel (talk) (On the Origin of Species), Waluigi Time (talk) (To Infinity and Beyond), Superchao (talk) (Mach Speed Mayhem), and Kinger (talk) (Getting That Payday).
