So I was just about to paste my rewrite of the Subspace Emissary storyline when I noticed that you had apparently made a complete rewrite of it yourself between when I started my rewrite two days ago and when I finished just now. (That's just an EPIC coincidence.) I know this pretty much means your rewrite was more-or-less for nothing when I put in my version, but maybe you'd like to look over my much longer version now and comment. ;D Erik Jensen ^{(Appreciate me here!)} 21:50, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Hey there! I was wondering if i could introduce you to my friend, pwnage- I - I mean my friend, happyness. So if you have a friendcode that would sound cool... (Hint) (Hint)

I hope u dont mind...

I used ur Match up icons. Is that ok? Thx! Smasher2008-09 (talk) 04:50, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, that's fine. Just don't pretend that you made them and you can use them however you like. Toomai Glittershine eXemplary Logic 12:34, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Don't worry! I put those icons to good use! Smasher2008-09^{May the Brawl...be with you...} 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Research projects

From what I've seen of your (exemplary) work, it seems you like to look into more complex parts of the game by testing the mechanisms involved, etc. I was wondering if you could look into two unanswered questions I had (here and here). Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated. Miles (talk) 20:18, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Psst. I don't think guns do weapon damage. Stuff like Blaster is Energy, etc. Miles (talk) 19:46, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Is it so wrong?

Hey Toomai I was wondering was it a bad thing to post that much information for a game? And I was wondering if I could fight you because I don't really know anyone near my skill level either. Tell me, is it so wrong?Stridentgear 2:11, May 17, 2009 (UTC)

Well, I don't know whether it's technically "wrong". But the SmashWiki is about the Smash Bros. series. Yes, there should be pages about games that had content borrowed. That said, if that's the only importance a game has to the Smash Bros. series, we don't need a lot of info on the stuff that has no effect on it. Think of it this way: if a non-Smash Bros. article is longer than an article on a similar subject from the Smash Bros. series (such as a Smash Bros. game and another game), it's probably too big.

sig

Hi Toomai. Your sig is currently in violation of SW:SIGN because it is transcluded (meaning you sign with {{whatever}}). You can substitute it instead (by typing {{subst:whatever}}), unless the code is too long to fit in the signature box in preferences, in which case you would need to change it.

Thanks, --Shadowcrest 04:45, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Drat. Ah well, it wasn't working like I wanted it to anyway. Toomai Glittershine The Table Designer cntrbs 13:02, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Character head icons

From what I've seen, Brawl has variant versions of the head icons for every palette swap of a character as well. They can be seen in the chart after a match showing who KO'd who and how many times (shown by repeated icons). Should we include these somewhere? I'm asking you since you seem to be our icon master. Miles (talk) 20:48, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

There is one icon for each costume (there has been in all three games). But I see no reason to have them; what could they be used for? (Not to mention I don't have them; the only ones I got were from Smashboards.) Toomai Glittershine The Stats Guy cntrbs 21:10, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

I could make the ones from SSB very easily if you want, but I don't see why it's necessary. PenguinofDeath 21:43, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

I was just thinking for the sake of completeness, just like the costume galleries themselves. Miles (talk) 19:46, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

I have a question...where did you find all the SSBM Character head icons? Please answer me!!

Smasher2008-09^{May the Brawl...be with you...} 11:13 26 June 2009 (UTC)

First: Your sig is faulty; you have ^{<small> instead of </small>}. You have to close tags in the reverse order they were opened.

As for the icons...I found them on Smashboards. I basically opened up the "select a smiley" dialog and the head icons, along with various other images, were there. Toomai Glittershine eXemplary Logic cntrbs 19:01, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

I have found someone who has ripped all the character head icons from Brawl. (He also has the selection screen images, which we already have except for Random.) If you guys are still interested, you can probably ask him for permission to use them. Toomai Glittershine The Stats Guy cntrbs 11:47, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Hello

I actually tried to write something new interesting thing about meteors, but I didn't have enough time as it was long and I accidentally saved that about Ganondorf. Firewario (talk) 23:04, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Character Matchups

I know how much you like the matchups table, so I thought you might like to know that the current version is apparently out of date. Seeing as you made the table, you're probably the best person to ask to edit it. Have fun. PenguinofDeath 22:37, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

I was kinda hoping that people would edit it as the changes were made, but whatever. I will get right on that tomorrow. Toomai Glittershine The Stats Guy cntrbs 22:41, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

hey

How did you make your images? Paper Bowser (talk) 16:58, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Well, most of my stuff is done in Inkscape, while the image in my sig was done in Blender. If you want any more than that, you'll have to be more specific. Toomai Glittershine The Table Designer cntrbs 20:03, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

Good work on fixing the new templates! u can has barnstar now. The question now is how do we fit this into the Smasher template? Should we make it an integral part of the template, or should we leave it out? Some Smasher articles don't have their birth date, just the year they were born, which would mean that the template wouldn't work (or we'd have to make up their birthday). I think it'd be easier to introduce a new line on the Smasher template with the DoB template, but keep the old Birth Date line for Smasher articles without a full birth date. What do you think? PenguinofDeath 14:23, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Easy fix, stick it in there and make it not show up unless the field is like.. Opened. Warwizzles 14:27, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

There are two things we can do.

1. Once I get a large enough span of time, I could edit the Smasherbeta template to do the following:

• If the "old" birth date field is used, then use what's in there.
• Otherwise:
  • Use the data in the birth day, birth month, and birth year fields (which currently don't exist).
    • If any of birth day, birth month, or birth year is missing, display a bunch of ?s (such as January 23 ????).
    • If all three are present, calculate and display age.

2. Note in the template to use the DoB template in the birth date field if you want your age to be updated.

Oh, and I'm not the first barnstar-ian (as you noted in your edit summary). You and ClonedPickle came first. Toomai Glittershine eXemplary Logic cntrbs 16:26, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, I forgot that ClonedPickle and I had already got them. I would say go for Option 1, because it requires the input of fewer users (so it's more likely to be done in an organised manner) and it would look really good. I knew you'd have good ideas... :D PenguinofDeath 16:39, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

You've been vandal caught

Smasher Page?

How'd you make a smasher page, cause you deleted it when it was a user page. I would appreciate it if you told me how to make a smasher page, and catagorise it. Thanks. The Hobster (talk) 20:47, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Smasher pages are pages about notable players of Smash Bros.; therefore I don't think you'd qualify (read SW:NOTE for the requirements). You're welcome to treat your user page as a smasher page, but it can't be categorized as such. Toomai Glittershine eXemplary Logic 22:48, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

and what if I become a smasher of some note, then can I make my own page? The Hobster (talk) 07:07, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

done something better than you

You say youve done hard SSE without stickers 100%.

I did very hard. I've also done intense but not 100%.

Also how are your matchup icons meant to work? The Hobster (talk) 07:15, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

The matchup icons were designed for the character matchups article, but anyone can use them for similar purposes (that is, showing the percentages of things such as matchups). Toomai Glittershine The Stats Guy 00:25, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

I have done Very Hard with no stickers (not to show off). Honestly, I's be dead pretty quickly if I did Intense/No Stickers in SSE. 170.185.51.19 16:47, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

:3

Could you perhaps work the magic you did on the Tier List and put it into the weight article? :3 Paper Bowser (talk) 06:58, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
