Mario Chat / Okay, now I'd like to talk with everyone else.

« on: July 14, 2001, 06:02:27 PM »

Hi.  Roy here.  I've been posting for several months, and  really enjoy this board.  That in mind, I want to dicuss some recent events.

Many of you know $$Wario$$.  Many of you hate $$Wario$$.  And not without reason; he insulted you, he hurt you.  Some topics have become "Someone VS $$Wario$$" flame wars, and that's not cool.  Nothing gets settled that way.  The fire is just fed, that's all.

Yesterday, I posted a topic specifically for $$Wario$$.  I wanted to talk to him in a civilized manner.  I wanted to try to reason with him.  And it worked (read, "$$Wario$$, can I talk to you a minute?").  He's apologized, and he wants to stick around.  I believe him, and I'm asking everyone else to as well.

I know this will be hard.  Sonic, Kamek, KinopioToad, and others here have been personally offended by $$Wario$$.  You are probably all thinking, "I still hate this guy.  I still want him banned for what he said about me."  I ask you, sincerely, to NOT think that!  Instead, forgive the guy and drop the grudge.  If you are nice to him, he will be nice to you.

I really think this will work, but it needs the cooperation of EVERYBODY.  If just one person posts a flame against $$Wario$$, all this progress could be lost.  Please, everybody, forget about the past and move on.

Sonic (AKA PTC), Kamek, and KinopioToad, I know this will be difficult, but I think this can be done.  Forgiveness can be a powerful thing.

Thank you for your time, everyone.  Now, let's ALL have fun here!

General Chat / $$Wario$$, can I talk to you for a minute?

« on: July 13, 2001, 08:48:37 PM »

$$Wario$$, the only time I've responded to you is when you were asking for a second chance, which I believed in.  I didn't vote in your "15 and I leave" topic, and, at the moment, I still don't plan to.  In fact, I basically just want to ignore anything you post that is mean.  But, right now, I want to talk.  That's it.

It seems you just come here to insult others, to rile them up, to get attention.  Why?  This is supposed to be a fun place to just come and chat with a bunch of people who are Mario fans.  I don't know a lot of people in person who like to discuss this kind of stuff nowadays, and this board was a welcome find.  Please, stop bashing others and just relax.

I know that, since you came here in the first place, you must be a sort of Mario fan.  You use a Mario-name and have posted several non-violent Mario topics which were cool.  Don't you want to have a place to just talk Mario?  You really don't have to keep trying to get banned.

So, $$Wario$$, I implore you, please stop making fun of people (Sonic and Kamek in particular) and just relax.  Have fun, in a polite way.  Talk Mario.  Enjoy the company of others instead of pushing them away.

And for the record, the name Wario does not mean you have to act mean.  Mine's Roy Koopa, the baddest of the Koopa Kids, and I don't feel I have to hurt others!

That's all I wanted to say.  Please take this seriously.  Thank you for your time.

--Roy Koopa

PS Nobody else respond to this until $$Wario$$ does, please.

Mario Chat / Donkey Kong Theory

« on: July 13, 2001, 01:15:00 PM »

This theory relates to Mario's first adventure, Donkey Kong.  The setting: Brooklyn, NY, construction site:

Mario and Luigi are currently working as carpenters for a construction company.  Mario is also currently dating the lovely Pauline, a highschool-sweetheart.  Every day, Pauline eats her lunch period with Mario at the site, while Luigi goes off with some fellow co-workers.

Meanwhile, in another dimention all together, the two apes, Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr. are out in the forests of Donkey Kong Country on the lookout for Kremlings and/or bananas.  They instead dicover a strange Warp Pipe.  Since thease arre rare in DKC, they investigate.  Entering the pipe, they arive on Earth.

Earth is an odd world, where the apes don't even talk.  But, then, the two are found by a human scientist, and are captured!  DK Sr. is furious, and bangs his chest and shout obsenities in outrage.  The apes are brought to NY to be examined and studied.  While being transported, they escape and run away.

Meanwhile, it is now lunch at the site, and Mario is waiting for Pauline.  Pauline is walking to him, when, suddenly, two apes coming crashing into her.  Angry, Donkey Kong snatches Pauline as a hostage and quickly climbs the construction site.  DK Jr. hides.

Mario witnesses this and grabs a hammer and chases DK up the builiding.  DK is, in the mean time, throwing barrels off the building at Mario.  Mario chases DK higher and higher, till he is successful in freeing Pauline and sending DK back down the building.  All is well...or is it?

Mario Chat / The Princess Theories #2: Daisy

« on: July 13, 2001, 12:22:33 PM »

This theory I really just recently made up.  The "resurrection" of Daisy has made me very interested in her character, so I did what I love to do and made a theory up about her origin.  Here it is:

Unlike the Mario Bros. and Peach, Daisy was not an orphan.  She really didn't have the best childhood, though.  Her parents passed away when she was young--like around 10 or 12--and she was sent to live with her grandparents.  She lived with them for about ten years, when, due to old age, they passed on as well.  Depressed, Daisy went into a deeply wooded area somewhere in the Appalachians to be alone.  There, Daisy, too sad to really be watching where she's going, falls down a strange hole into an unserground cave.  In the cave, there is a giant, green pipe.  Thinking this is the only way back to the surface, Daisy crawls into it.

Of course, this is Warp Pipe.  It leads her to Sarasaland.  Confused, yet curious, Daisy explores this strange land.  She eventually meets some Sarasalandians (Mushroom people, only they look Asian).  They befriend her and take her to King Chai, ruler of Sarasaland and friend of Chancellor Toadstool.  Daisy stays with the King a while, leading the king to think of her as the daughter he never had and her to think of him as the father she once knew.  Eventually, the King asks her to stay in Sarasaland as his daughter.  Daisy accepts, and she becomes Princess Daisy of Sarasaland.  She soon meets Peach of the Mushroom Kingdom, and the two become fast friends.

And that's Princess Theory #2!  Hope you like it.  reply with your comments!

Mario Chat / The Princess Theories #1: Peach

« on: July 13, 2001, 11:54:22 AM »

Here's another theory, this one relating to Princess Peach.  Once again , this can kinda have two versions.  If you believe humans can be born in the Mushroom Kingdom, then that's it.  Peach is the Chancellor's daughter.  However, if you think all MK humans are from earth, like I do, then here's what I've always believed:

Peach was a baby orphan just like the Mario Bros.  In fact, she even lived in the same orphanage that they lived in!  Granted, they were a few years older than her, so they were usually off playing with their friends.  Anyway, little Peach (who was not actually named Peach yet) was in the bathtub being cleaned by one of the adults.  The adult was distracted for a minute (maybe the phone rang or something) so Peach was alone.  Peach, being curious, pulls the plug out and is then sucked down the Warp Pipe into the Mushroom Kingdom (Let this be a lesson: don't leave a baby in tub alone!)

In the strange land, poor Peach is scared and begins craying her poor eyes out.   It is then that Mushroom Chancellor Toadstool and some gaurds are passing buy.  They discover the infant girl.  Chancellor Toadstool imediately falls in love with the poor, strange baby and takes her in as his own daughter.  She is raised in the Mushroom Kingdom as Princess Peach Toadstool and really only knows her life there.

That's it!  What do you think?

Mario Chat / Koopa Kid Theory

« on: July 13, 2001, 11:45:25 AM »

Hello.  Roy Koopa here.  I am posting some fun theories I have made up over the years.  I posted this one a while back under "another weird theory", so some of you may have read it already.  Those of you who haven't, I would love to hear your thoughts about it, or maybe you have a theory of your own.  Here it is:

"My weird threory of the Koopa Kids realates to Yoshi'd Island. Kamek and Baby Bowser mess with the Mushroom Kingdom Stork Baby Delivery system by doing the unthinkable: kidnapping a stork and a baby and trying to get the other one! After the Yoshis help, the stork returns to its comrads and tells what happened. The other storks think of a fitting punishment...

Years later. Bowser is grown up, when he gets a knock at the door. He opens it to find that the storks have delivered SEVEN little terrors for him to raise! They're the brattiest, whiniest, meanest kids the storks could find. The storks didn't take into account that Bowser would be proud of those traits, though, and that he would raise them to help him terrorize the Mushroom Kingdom. Oops on they're part.

So thats my theory about how Bowser has kids without having a wife. The storks delivered them as a would-be punishment for his kidnapping babies all those years ago.

Everyone is entitled to their own theory, of course."

Mario Chat / Looking for a pic...

« on: May 23, 2001, 09:04:19 PM »

Does anyone know of or have a good picture of the Doomship from the cartoon of SMB3 on the net?  I'm looking for one.  A picture of it from the intro would be great.  Thanks.

Mario Chat / So, just where were the Mario Bros. born?

« on: May 01, 2001, 11:59:40 PM »

A few of you whi liked my "Where do the Koopa Kids come from?" explanation (see the "another weird theory" thread) expressed interest in hearing my "Where were the Mario Bros. born?" theory.  Since the "SMW vs YI" thread has also raised this issue, I though it'd be a good time to post this.  It will be a bit long, but bear with me.

The theory can have two versions: One if you belive all humans in the MK are originally from Earth, and one where you think their are humans born in the MK.  I prefer the first one, so here it goes:

Mario and Luigi are orphan babies growing up in an orphanage.  The only remembrance of their parents are two big hats with their first intials on them. Even young, Mario is adventuresome and Luigi is cautious. One day, the two are crawling out where they shouldn't be.

They enter the bathroom.  Mario has always been curious as to where the water goes when the plug is pulled in the tub, so he convinces Luigi (in baby talk) to check it out.  He manages to put some whater in the tub and pull ou the plug.  But...

This is the tub they'll get sucked down unclogging it years later, so it isn't a normal tub.  They are both sucked into the Mushroom Kingdom

(this is getting lengthy.  I'll turn it into two posts)

Mario Chat / Waluigi

« on: April 25, 2001, 09:27:43 PM »

I realize that this has probably been talked about here before, but since I'm new and want to post things, I'm gonna ask anyway:

What do you think of Waluigi?

I, personally, think this character is awesome, and I'm looking forward to seeing the "Wario Bros." together in games in the future.  Plus, he indirectly gives Luigi more recognition.  What are yoiur thoughts?

Mario Chat / New Mario action figures?

« on: April 24, 2001, 04:58:55 PM »

I saw on figures.com a while back that more Mario action figures would be coming out soon.  Has anyone heard anything about these?  They included Luigi, DK, and Wario in the Mario Kart series, plus another series that included Mario, Luigi, Bowser, Metal Mario, Yoshi, and Wario.  The Wario ones looked really cool.

Any word about these would be welcome (especcially if the word was, "Yeah, they're coming out soon!")

And weren't they gonna come out with a Peach beanie baby?  What happened to that?

Mario Chat / I miss the Koopa Kids

« on: April 19, 2001, 11:28:58 PM »

Does anyone else really miss the Koopa Kids?  I thought they were cool, but we haven't seen them since Mario is Missing, I think, and that's not even a "real" Mario game.  I still draw them and use them in stories, but it pains me that they aren't in the games anymore.  What are your thoughts?

And, also, which of the seven did you like best.  I gotta go with Roy, obviously.

By the way, I'm new here.  Pleased to meet ya!

Game Help / Dr. Mario 64

« on: April 18, 2001, 05:12:59 PM »

Hi.  First time here, so I thought I'd ask a question.  In "Dr. Mario 64" (a great addaption of the original) there are two "secret characters." I just want to know how to get them, but not who they are (yet).  I'm trying to beat Normal without losing, but Rudy takes me out at least once each time.  :(
