RE:Your sig
Hi. When I add Toadette to my sig. I look to Talk:Rainbow Star, to look if the code was broken and when I look, the half of my signature created a new line (my signature was on two lines. So, I revert it. If you can help, thanks! :) -- 00:07, 2 May 2016 (EDT)

Re:Peekaboo
I noticed we're short one bureaucrat... That's just... why. Requiescat in pace... She has Baby Luigi's respect, and mine. I just wish it was easier to put my reaction into words...

As for what I've been up to... School. It's not too bad, though. I'm hoping to get more done here, at least over the summer, when I shouldn't have much to worry about.
 * Ugh, math. Math makes me suffer too. Oh well. But more importantly... Baby Luigi art!! I'd love to see it sometime, I'm sure it's amazing. Well, anything starring Baby Luigi is, but I'm sure it's amazing even for Baby Luigi art. Also, despite my extremely limited knowledge of Japanese (as in, I couldn't understand 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999% of it) I did enjoy the manga. It was great.
 * It looks great! It really displays the Baby Mario Bros.' personalities well.
 * Well, the first I saw of Baby Luigi was in Mario Kart Wii. Did everyone first meet Baby Luigi in some Mario Kart game? Anyway, a long time ago, I saw that the staff ghost used for N64 Sherbet Land had a strange character that looks like Baby Mario but wears a green hat, so I figured that was a baby version of Luigi. I, too, prefer Luigi over Mario, because obviously the "lesser" brother is always better, and once I finally unlocked the character, he became my favorite, and the combination of the pride over unlocking him, his cuteness, voice and quotes, and the fact that he's Baby Luigi didn't help and he quickly became my most used character in the whole game, and for a while he was the only one I ever used until I started giving other characters my attention. It didn't help that it turned out he was tied for the best speed bonus in the game. Once I got my hands on Mario Kart: Double Dash (even with newer games, who could turn down controlling two characters at once?) and more recently 8, he easily became my most used character there as well. So, basically, I met him in Mario Kart and couldn't stop using him for the longest time due to various things. Those qualities that made that happen still stick with me to this day, even if his voice changes every time he appears in a Mario Kart game. It also doesn't help that my favorite colors are blue and green, or was that BECAUSE of Baby Luigi...?
 * Well, by the time I started playing video games, the Wii was already out. I certainly could have owned a GameCube and/or GBA, but I just never did. As for Partners in Time, the first game I can remember playing was Pokemon Diamond, which means it was already a few years after its first release and I guess I never got to it. I got to play Mario Super Sluggers once because my cousins had it, but for whatever reason I never got it myself. Well for me, I just feel like he isn't relevant compared to Baby Mario, though it is Baby Luigi, so that treatment is inevitable... But, seeing Baby Mario appear in Mario Tennis 64, GBC, and Open, as well as Mario Kart Arcade GP DX without his brother, and seeing him as the equivalent to Peach in an entire series even when Baby Peach is a playable character in one game rendering him as the one non-playable baby, that just hurts.

About
So I added an option for proposals that didn't reach consensus (proposals that had no majority after 3 extents). As far as I know, only Talk:Door has a proposal of that sort. It's colored red in that page, but I feel that it is an incorrect color. Green means that the proposed idea was accepted, Red means that the proposed idea was declined. Gray means that no conclusion was reached. That's why I put it as gray. I think that vetoed by admins should be a different color though (perhaps blue), because it's not really a no conclusion, but rather something fundamentally wrong about the proposal. So whaddya say?-- 09:03, 3 May 2016 (EDT)

RE: Image maps
I did a few, but sadly right now, I don't have enough time. I'm in the middle of my finals. If you want you can continue what I did, I just made the same changes to all the templates and omitted the size parameter if the image is already small enough. Otherwise I will try to do them as soon as possible.-- 18:28, 9 May 2016 (EDT)

To my favorite user
I think you're funny. I like Baby Luigi and astronomy too! I laughed when I saw your comment about the difference between astronomy and astrology. I get angry about when people get those confused too. My favorite constellation is Orion. I think the Orion and Horsehead Nebulas are pretty. What is your favorite constellation, and your favorite planet (other than Earth)? Boo X (talk) 12:54, 12 May 2016 (EDT)

P.S. can you teach me how to customize signatures?

Re: Partners in Time
Yep, I have every game in the series. I think I have full files in all of them too.-- 05:07, 13 May 2016 (EDT)
 * All done :D an interesting thing to add to that list is another footnote for locations you can visit in the present (if there were other places other than Peach's Castle, but I can't remember.) If you need another thing, don't hesitate to ask me.-- yes, I'm supposed to be studying right now, but screw it :P  17:26, 13 May 2016 (EDT)
 * [[File:MLPIT Burn.gif]] & [[File:MLPIT Poison.gif]] & [[File:MLPIT Trip.gif]]. These are the worthwhile ones. The other animations are just shrinking bubbles. They are going to be very hard to rip, they are 60fps, and they just look nothing special. The Trip one is broken currently, I will try to fix it though.-- 13:00, 14 May 2016 (EDT)
 * I still couldn't rip the other animations, sorry. The Save screens are this in the past, and this in the present. And speaking of, I think the "Cellar" should be split from the castle dungeon article.-- 06:43, 19 May 2016 (EDT)
 * Quick question. Does it really have to go through a TTP? I mean, it's creating a new article (and removing a single line from an already-existing article), and it follows our policies to have separate locations (especially those with separate names) split. But eh. In all cases, if you need any more rips, I will gladly help.-- 19:40, 19 May 2016 (EDT)
 * For some obscure reasons, I tried to make File:MLPIT Separated Groups.png as close as possible to the beta representation of it. Don't judge me.-- 15:46, 20 May 2016 (EDT)

Re: Boss/Mini-Boss
Hey Baby Luigi, I did that revision on the Partners in Time article, the reason being is because normal bosses (let's say Swiggler or Sunnycide) are all fought at the end of one full area, others (like Kamek or Mrs. Thwomp) are battled halfway bit like Fortresses in the main-series. Also the main-bosses have a mini-gimmick to them like Swiggler and Sunnycide have high defense, Petey Piranha limits what you can use on him depending on his state flying or in sand. Some have 2 phases etc. 21:08, 16 May 2016 (EDT)

RE:Bot
Yes. With help and permission from. -- 01:31, 21 May 2016 (EDT)
 * I have thought about a separate account but I think that would go against MarioWiki policy relating to multiple account creation, unless an exception can be raised in the case benefitting MarioWiki. You can check 's talk page for details how I became familiar with MediaWiki bot work. It's amazing stuff! Use it with caution. CTRL+C to terminate an on-going bot if you feel it is making a mistake. -- 01:45, 21 May 2016 (EDT)

Thanks
I'm not sure what happened, but the Icaruspedia link I was trying to add kept redlinking on me when I tried to use it. I probably had it formatted wrong. -- Ghost Jam 18:16, 21 May 2016 (EDT)
 * You're welcome, and uh, yeah, that's most likely the case. 18:18, 21 May 2016 (EDT)

Alright, I'll get into this. :) -- 19:42, 21 May 2016 (EDT)

Adding an icon to username
How do you add an icon to your username? Kind of in the manner how users LudwigVon and RoyKoopa have heads of the respective koopalings on their names whenever they post on talk pages. Marino13 (talk) 22:36, 25 May 2016 (EDT)

You talking about a ban on my account
You probably meant a temporary ban, not a permaban. It's rude to tell an admin to ban a person that would change their behavior. (me) 71.70.95.178 15:59, 29 May 2016 (EDT)
 * This isn't 's fault. This was entirely up to, a bureaucrat. -- 16:35, 29 May 2016 (EDT)
 * I'm not being "rude" I'm doing my job as an editor that wants to benefit the upkeep of this wiki. You have failed to meet the standards we have established, so I'm completely in the right to suggest a ban towards your bad behavior. Maybe you should reflect on that rather than blaming your actions on other people. And also, ban-evading isn't going to help your case either. 17:13, 29 May 2016 (EDT)

Archiving proposals

 * Are you going to archive it? Once it's passed you need to move it to the archives. I could do it for you the first time, so you know what to do.

My understanding was that the proposals should be actioned before being archived (unless they involve editing dozens of pages or whatever - in this case, it involves just one page, but it is a locked page I can't edit). I see Megadardery has already archived it anyway... - Reboot (talk) 20:56, 30 May 2016 (EDT)

Homebrewing a Wii, Wii U, and/or 3DS
Are you at all interested in homebrewing like your twin sister ? I have been exclusively talking to her about it occasionally. -- 23:57, 31 May 2016 (EDT)
 * Well then, 3DS and Wii U stuff. Check that out some time. Those are working for me. Wii Homebrewing, that is well established. Check out WiiBrew to get started on that (works on vWii of Wii U too). -- 01:48, 1 June 2016 (EDT)
 * Yeah, I had a feeling you Wii Homebrewed quite extensively if you have interest in homebrewing in general. Same with me. I have created a video about it, but it is very outdated. As for 3DS and Wii U, I have no idea what your status is with homebrew with those consoles. My Homebrew Status I just gave you those two links because the 3DS link is something that will be my entry point to 3DS homebrew (potentially) while the Wii U link is from my entry to Wii U homebrew just hours ago. -- 02:08, 1 June 2016 (EDT)
 * Don't get too excited because the reveal that happened yesterday is an exploit in a very obscure game. I thought it was going to be a QR code exploit when you press + in the system menu. Our best chance is the revival of browserhax. -- 15:41, 4 June 2016 (EDT)

Making your own signature
Hey, Baby Luigi. I'm a new user and I know the basics of editing articles. I see other users who have unique signatures. I don't know how to make one myself. Would you tell me how to make a signature? The one I use looks boring. Please reply to me on my talk page. -TheUnknown67

Re: Warning
I know what I did is wrong now, I thought it was alright because as you saw on Epic Rosalina's talk page Pwwnd sent a message and Captain Yoshi sent one to him 1 year later on the same page. So yeah since I just joined on like January 28 of this year I just thought it was okay since they got no warnings for it. 18:38, 8 June 2016 (EDT)
 * Another thing, what if you're reverting a troll's recent edit on that page is that allowed. 21:54, 19 June 2016 (EDT)

An official thanks
Hey Baby Luigi thanks for everything, if it weren't for you I would be stuck. Thanks for helping me this far on the wiki, I fully appreciate it you and are both really helpful thanks for everything. (P.S I am not leaving or anything this is just a thank you message) 23:33, 29 June 2016 (EDT)

an old friend needs assistance
short version; I forgot how to wiki and I would like some help from you

long version; I'm back after nearly two years of hiatus, but as expected, I don’t remember how to do anything past simple edits and stuff lol. also I don’t know about any major proposals passed from around late 2014 to now, so I'd like a brief summary of them. could you and your twin basically help guide me along as if I was a brand new user? like introduce me to what all of the different codes and stuff do again and which articles are in need of edits. I'll appreciate any advice. 00:58, 24 July 2016 (EDT)


 * mostly I just want to know any major developments that have happened here, and if you know any articles that really need expanding/rewriting/etc, I'd like to try and give them a shot to try and reintegrate myself here. also I want to change my ugly-ass sig but I don’t really know how lol 17:42, 24 July 2016 (EDT)


 * I just want to simplify it really. make it similar to the default sig template but with like a bowser head or something. thanks for the help so far btw. I hope I can get back to how active I was in 2014 haha 18:24, 24 July 2016 (EDT)


 * almost. I wanted to use this; Bowserhead.png instead and I wanted to put links to my contribs and forum profile too. I'm pretty sure there's some way to link to the forum without having that arrow thing show up on the link, but I don’t remember it. do you know it? 18:32, 24 July 2016 (EDT)


 * thanks a lot! I changed a bit of it for a e s t h e t i c (I'm sorry I had to) reasons, but I appreciate what you did. 18:50, 24 July 2016 (EDT)


 * alright I'll do what I can. gracias 19:06, 24 July 2016 (EDT)

Excellent News!
I was successfully able to use Homebrew Launcher using browserhax on 3DS and submit clean PNGs of a 3DS game (File:Mario SM3DL2.png and File:SM3DL 2-2.png)! It claims to run on latest firmware (11.0.0-33)! -- 03:11, 28 July 2016 (EDT)
 * Oops! Forgot to mention where I learned the news. here and here. I know! I have been wanting to replace Miiverse screenshots with clean PNGs as well for a while now, just without the intrusive mod way that requires taking apart a 3DS. Homebrew is much more convenient this way. I'm actually learning that most PNGs are smaller in file size compared to the JPEGs that Nintendo has us submit to Miiverse as a JPEG. :P I am also learning that some games have issues with homebrew, but I hope to get that kind of problem resolved on the 3DS hacking Subreddit. -- 18:36, 28 July 2016 (EDT)

This week is just full of surprises! Today, stickerhax was released for Paper Mario: Sticker Star. I got this secondary exploit to work because I have this game. It does overwrite my save, but I didn't progress very far anyways where it actually mattered to me. -- 15:29, 30 July 2016 (EDT)
 * If you have been meaning to buy the game, get it now, preferably the cartridge version because Nintendo has less control over that. The eShop version may get taken down. Nintendo has been known to remove exploitable games from the eShop. From what I can gather from the Subreddit, it seems that there are surges of new game purchases, stock gets harder to track down a physical copy, and games rise in price when a new exploit gets released. -- 18:06, 30 July 2016 (EDT)
 * OK then. Just scan eBay and Amazon to hunt down a cheap used copy. Don't know if you live in the United States but the UPC to search is 045496742133 . -- 21:09, 30 July 2016 (EDT)

Passed TPPs
Thanks for the heads up, that proposal skipped my memory.

3DS Firmware Update
Nintendo just released less than 24 hours ago 11.1.0-34 for 3DS. Don't update if you want to keep your Homebrew freedom. Some people have updated and reported homebrew non-functional. -- 14:46, 13 September 2016 (EDT)
 * All right, thanks for the heads-up 22:41, 13 September 2016 (EDT)
 * There is a glimmer of hope. Try setting up steelhax. I think that the Nintendo eShop blocks older firmwares so you are going to need to use this tutorial. It's a free game. I didn't need to use ctr-httpwn because I already had the game downloaded for years. All I needed to do was delete Steel Diver data that wasn't software data. The rest was easy, but it takes a few tries to get the installer to succeed in causing corruption in the save data to launch homebrew. Just like stickerhax, that was another game I was willing to part with, even more so than Paper Mario: Sticker Star. According to this page, stickerhax and steelhax work on 11.1.0-34. I advise you update Homebrew Launcher and stay on 11.0.0-33 just to be safe. -- 01:01, 16 September 2016 (EDT)
 * OK, after getting over possibly losing homebrew, I can say that it is safe to update to 11.1.0-34. Before you do, make sure you have steelhax working on 11.0.0-33 or below. That's important. After updating, you need to overwrite the payload on the root of the SD card with a version compatible with 11.1.0-34, which if you scroll down this page to a bunch of drop-down boxes, fill them out, and click, you can get it updated manually. When you install hacks such as stickerhax or oot3dhax, it downloads the appropriate payload for you. Without updating the payload, the handheld will give you an error message instead of loading homebrew. Then you will need to redo any other exploits you setup. I had to redo stickerhax. I think this is standard procedure for any firmware update, if it is an update to attempt blocking exploits. -- 22:43, 30 September 2016 (EDT)
 * Crap I think I updated my 3DS recently because I had a prompt to update it recently. Still, I'm not sure if I'm required to update my system in order to play newer games like Mario Party: Star Rush and Mario Sports Superstars. 22:48, 30 September 2016 (EDT)
 * Everybody gets that prompt. I have been getting that prompt daily but kept declining, until today. Knowing Nintendo, 11.1.0-34 or later might be pushed. Several Wii titles had the update files for the Wii firmware on disk. Anyways, if you updated the firmware before making sure you can run exploits before updating, you might be screwed for a little while. The latest firmware is still 11.1.0-34 as I just updated hours ago. Learned that exploits need maintenance sometimes when a firmware update occurs. I think the payload gets stored onto the 3DS game card itself while downloads might be reliant on the SD card. The exploit steelhax is very easy to update the payload compared to others because the payload is stored on the SD card so you might not be completely in the hole, as long as steelhax was working before you updated. -- 01:41, 1 October 2016 (EDT)
