Status: Playing Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. (I HAVE FUN!)

I am a Mario fan. My favorite series is Paper Mario, although I like the first and the third installments of Mario & Luigi too. I like tool-assisted speedruns too.

Personal info

  • My email is 250x0418497@qq.com minus the "x". My Baidu account is dine2013 or dine2015. However, most of the time I'll be offline
  • Due to the strange behavior of Сhina's Internet сensοrship, this site is sometimes accessible in China and sometimes not. When it isn't, I'll use some GFW-bypassing software to access this site.
  • I'm a Linux user. My favorite distribution is Ubuntu.

References

* These are the pages I'm most proud of, because I took most of the screenshots myself, and they are high-quality ones taken with the Dolphin emulator.

Future plan

  • The first revision of the article "List of Star Pieces in Paper Mario" use poor-quality screenshots taken from a Japanese 100% run of Paper Mario found on the Internet. The second one (current) uses screenshots imported from RPGShrine, which are slightly better. In the future third revision I plan to take higher-quality ones myself, now that I have the US version of Paper Mario.
  • Wait for someone to hack into Paper Mario and come up with the item drop probability for each enemy. (Some guy hacked into the game and found that Up & Away has a 0.016% chance to succeed in the final two Bowser battles. But this value later turned out to be wrong.)
  • Dig all the conversations in Paper Mario.
“Goombaria knows a lot about the subtle languages of flowers and colors. She talks and talks and talks until I can't take it anymore! As a result, I've learned a lot of what she knows.”
Goombario, Paper Mario

Wiki backup

In case mariowiki.com gets blocked again, I'm making a backup of the wiki. On 5 August 2015 I downloaded the wikicode of the 16,224 non-redirect mainspace articles via Special:Export, and added templates and galleries later. I also have a list of the pictures used on mainspace and gallery articles. It contains 37453 items, beginning with

('! Block and face blocks scene SM3DL.png', '/images/e/ef/%21_Block_and_face_blocks_scene_SM3DL.png', '400', '240')
('!Block.png', '/images/8/8d/%21Block.png', '1112', '1000')
('! Switch (SMW2).PNG', '/images/a/aa/%21_Switch_%28SMW2%29.PNG', '20', '21')
('-2MortonsCastle.png', '/images/6/66/-2MortonsCastle.png', '256', '224')
('0-1 DiceBlock.png', '/images/5/5c/0-1_DiceBlock.png', '159', '132')

and ending with

('Yoshistory2.png', '/images/0/02/Yoshistory2.png', '134', '169')
('Yoshistorysceenshot.PNG', '/images/8/89/Yoshistorysceenshot.PNG', '441', '308')
('Yurarinbooartwork.PNG', '/images/e/e3/Yurarinbooartwork.PNG', '125', '111')
('Zodacamel.png', '/images/2/26/Zodacamel.png', '256', '232')
('Zombone.gif', '/images/5/5e/Zombone.gif', '76', '76')

The backup is not perfect, but you can ask me if you want it.
