Friends, colleagues, servants. It’s with a heavy heart that I bid a fond farewell to my loyal colleague and second in command Ensign Compy von Computon, who passed away last month on August 15th 2014 at 10:05 pm while fighting against the evil golf club army of Switzerland. Compy was a loyal soldier– strong, brave, courageous, had the ability to get on the internet, all things you want in a soldier. So my friend, I wish you peace in the afterlife and I hope to see you when I depart from this world. And with that I suppose I should get on with the show so did you know...
- ...that Mario is actually named after a warehouse owner named Mario Segale?
- ...that Goombas were actually the last enemies designed in Super Mario Bros.?
- ...that originally Super Mario Bros. was going to have shooting stages where Mario would ride a cloud?
- ...that Luigi was the first person in the Mario series to have an live action actor?
- ...that Luigi was the only character in Mario Party 3 to not have his/her own Star Stamp?
- ...that the Mario wiki is celebrating its 10th anniversary next year?

Welcome to Mystery Image! We haven't had this game in a while, so allow me to explain— I will provide five small parts of a bigger image, and you must guess what the mystery image is! While we try to challenge you, we're not going to make it anything too hard (nothing like a section of the rarest Mario comic book in the world). It will usually be official artwork that is used for these games. This one is related to one of the recipients of one of the awards this year, can you guess what the image is?
Did you guess? Do you give up? Well, here is the original image!

This character...
- ...made their debut in a 2012 video game.
- ...is a fairy companion that grants Mario certain powers.
- ...has a name that is an anagram of another word, minus one letter.
- ...initially assumed Mario to be the bad guy, before befriending him.
- ...is the guardian of special objects which were stolen by Bowser.
- ...likes to scold other characters, even Mario.
- ...ends up sacrificing themselves for a victory.
- ...won an award this year in this year's Awards Ceremonies.

| If Kersti comes to mind after reading these hints, you've read into them correctly! Kersti the sticker fairy made her appearance in Paper Mario: Sticker Star and is the guardian of the Royal Stickers which have been stolen. She initially assumed that Mario was the culprit at first but joins him to defeat Bowser and save the land. She even sacrifices herself during the final battle with Bowser, but Mario's wish to the Royal Stickers restores her in the end. Kersti also won Fail Award #4, Worst Paper Mario Sidekick in this year's anniversary ceremonies– not exactly something to brag about!

| Edofenrir (also known as Kibago, Hitokage and currently Gabumon) is a former administrator of Super Mario Wiki. After finding the website in a search for information on the "Weegee" fad and Mario is Missing! information, Edo continued to use the wiki as a resource for Mario information. He decided to join the wiki on 6 August 2009 and was given his first administrative position on 16 September 2009 after working extensively on Wario Land-related articles. He would then go on to become a Sysop, an administrator at Userpedia and a writer and staff member of The 'Shroom (initially as Director of Fake News and later as Sub-director). Edofenrir is known throughout the community for his artistic ability, and often finds himself taking on several art projects for the many friends he has made on MarioWiki. He is the recipient of 'Shroom Award #3, Favorite Leading Staff; Userpedia Award #4, Favorite User Design; and Userpedia Award #5, Favorite Artist.

| Super Mario 3D World is a 3D platformer game for the Wii U, released in 2013. Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Toad go after Bowser to save the Sprixie Princesses. Rosalina joins later to help, and Captain Toad is featured in several levels throughout the game (and has even been given a starring role in his upcoming game, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker). Mario and friends go through many levels in the game and make use of the vast amount of power-ups available, including the Super Bell which turns them into quite the catty characters. The game has received much acclaim for its singleplayer and multiplayer modes, the Cat Suit, and the addition of Princess Peach as a playable character. It also won Mario Award #30, Favorite Game in the Super Mario Wiki's Mario Awards Ceremony!
