Author Topic: Mailbag?  (Read 12316 times)

« on: June 22, 2006, 03:52:43 PM »
I was wondering, when is the next mailbag coming out? The last one came around Feburary, I think.
Maybe its because you guys are busy, but it would be kind of fun if you guys let us answer the questions.
I don't know how, but it sounds like a good idea.

They've all expressed their hate for making mailbags, I don't think they'll be creating new ones any time soon.

If they do, though, well, can't always be right.

Umm...not to sound like a n00b, but what's a mailbag, well for the forums? I know what a real mailbag is.

The "weekly" Mailbags are a great source of information and commentary. However, I believe their decline is because of two reasons:
  • As Vidgmchtr said, the staff members hate doing them, or;
  • People come here or to the chatroom to ask their questions.
The last Mailbag was December 15.


Another reason may be that nobody reads them. I bet many FF members only come for the forums. Those people hardly even know the great deal of information the main site contains. Maybe that's why the secret page hasn't been found yet.

I do! I used to lurk the site for ages but I never found crap.
I will try to scan the mariopedia next, but I doubt I will find it. I have tried for years...

I doubt it's in the games pages ever since they got databased.

I first started comming to this site because of the mailbags and game info. I was like OMG THIS SITE RAWKS! and then I found the forums and still checked the updates.

Hoho, when I first came upon TMK, there was no mailbag!  And when they started it, I remember thinking, "I bet SM64C had something to do with this..."

Anyway, I would rather see the mailbag die gracefully or go out with a bang than have it wither away and start to stink.  It's this part of me that believes the mailbag will go on.

solidmushroom, could you PM me a hint as to where that secret page is? I'm dying to know what's on it. Please? <:)

For all not knowing.
Here is a clue presented by the Deezer himself.

What once was lost, now is found. Or is it the other way around? Run to the end. Look to the sky. Don't try to jump--it's up way too high. Nine of us in all, unlocked by the sound

It's a strange clue. I could never figure out what it meant. Maybe it means there are nine secret pages?

I went back into other clues. Deezer also said it was in the Mariopedia.

I can't figure out what the secret page has to do with sound. Is it hidden within the source code of any page?

I think the next mailbag is scheduled for the year 2401.  At least that's what Luigi in SM64 told me.

Okay, I will keep the secret to myself.
Anyway, I've read some of the mailbags, and they aren't that great...but they would be pretty cool to be back.

I don't know why it made a difference this time... ... but it suddenly clicked, and I found the secret page!  I knew exactly where to go.  Hooray!  I can die in peace!

I actually shouldn't say stuff like that, because he is partially around, believe it or not.

I never liked when JJ answered the mailbags, to be honest. He'd just take a perfectally reasonable question, insult the person who asked it, and then not answer the question. Way too often.

All right. I found the Secret Page (with a few hints from solidmushroom) and I can confirm that J.J. lied, which is good.

Ugh. superstarMASIAH is simply stating his opinion on mailbags. It's quite relevant to the topic. That said, I'd like to see another malibag soon.
