Bio
I joined the main site in mid to late 2012. After failing to create suitable sprites to submit, I turned to making a fan game. It was about a Boo cursed by Kamek or something. After having trouble with the movement engine, VinnyVideo pointed me towards the forums. I joined under the shortened name LuigiM9, but never asked about the game. I was quirky at first because I never bothered to join a message board at first. The first couple of posts I made were pointless and I was still learning the ins and outs of the forums. Soon I started to become a respectable member and made more meaningful posts. Notable things I've done are start three canned projects, tried to join the Charisma team, participate in Isometric Collaboration 6, and here in 2014 joining the wiki.
I picked up my first controller when I was a wee lad of just two years old. I grew up with a SNES, N64, and GCN. Handhelds I had were a GBC, GBA(SP), DS, and DSlite. I was always a Mario fan and had played a little bit of Zelda and Kirby. Some of my fondest memories on the Gamecube are from City Trial (Kirby Air Ride), MarioKart: Double Dash (it's still the best) and Super Smash Bros Melee. Mario Party was the big friendship-ruiner, but it was a heck ton of fun. I still own all of the old consoles and recently got an NES, but my DSlite broke and I traded in the original DS for a 3DS. I still own my Blue DSi and still make flipnotes on it.
On MFGG
Durign one of the many days of 2009, I was watchign flipnotes on my DSi. I watched one of Luigi beating up some Shellcreepers, and at the end, the user had credited MFGG for the sounds and some sprites. I was vaguely interested but not enough to check it out. Fast forward 3 years, I stumbled upon the same flipnote and decided to check it out. I soon became interested in fangaming and spriting. I registered as LuigiMario9 (showing my preference for Luigi over Mario) and started making measly sprite edits. My skills have improved but can be worked on, still. Anyway, I wanted to create a game about a Boo cursed by Kamek or whatever, and was having trouble with the movement. VinnyVideo redirected me to the fourms and lo and behold, I registered as LuigiM9 (Shortened to make referrign to me easier). At first I was quite an interesting member; and I'm not proud of my first month or so here. I had a rocky reception with Vitiman/Rystar, and his own words, 'made posts that make no sense'. After getting accustomed to the forums I started making actual contributions!
Scrapped Games
Bowser game: inspired by Onpon4's Bowser's Last Stand.
Boo game: An ordinary Boo is cursed by Kamek. Use shapeshifting powers to turn into other enemies. Might pick this up again.
Super Mario Land Remastered (using Mit's Bews series of sprites). I decided to start after CatezeeY cancelled the original project.
Trivia
I prefer the BooBerry skin for the forums and NEW Super MFGG Bros. for the mainsite.
Of my 10 submissions, 8 of them are reviews and 2 are sprites.
Is a fan of the MOTHER series.
I used to be put down quite a bit, and thus seeked gratification on the forums, and took constructive critisiscism as flaming.
I can't stand being around kids that are 1st grade or under.
