The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

Gruntilda actually has a last name[edit]

Did anyone know that Gruntilda has a last name? Her last name is "Winkybunion" (from winky, as in someone who loves to wink, and bunion, the swelling of a foot's joint).

From TV Tropes:

  • Cutting Off the Branches: In the first game, "Winkybunion" was just one of three potential Embarrassing Middle Names Gruntilda could have. In later games, it ascended to being her actual last name instead.
  • Embarrassing Middle Name: Gruntilda Winkybunion is randomly given one in the first game for use in the Pop Quiz at the end.
  • Embarrassing Last Name: Gruntilda's last name is Winkybunion. She accidentally reveals this in the middle of the final battle, much to Banjo and Kazooie's amusement.


Quote from Banjo-Tooie:

  • Gruntilda: Okay, numbskulls. Time for the biggest, baddest spell I can muster... Prepare to join your buddy Bottles! You'll wish you'd never taken on the mighty Gruntilda Winkybunion!
  • Kazooie: Winkybunion? Is that your last name then?
  • Gruntilda: Err...um, no. Of course not. But don't you go telling anyone or I'll sue you...
  • Banjo: Whatever you say, Winky!
  • Gruntilda: Now die!

I learned that from TV Tropes, even before beating Banjo-Tooie. Jake Lugo (talk) 00:12, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

While interesting, this is unfortunately not what using a talk page is for. Aidan the Spooky Gamer 01:43, October 26, 2023 (EDT)

OK, what can I do to make it better? Was the copy/paste thing the problem? Jake Lugo (talk) 19:15, November 19, 2023 (EST)
