There's little else in the Mario series that compares to the ethereal-ness of the Galaxy games. The visuals are nice, but I think it's more about the ambience, the moments of quiet in comparison to the bombastic orchestra, the general tone of the games. I think those games capture a particular...
The Awards Committee has been finalized! Thank you to everyone who submitted an application!
And now, without further ado...
WELCOME TO THE AWARDS CIRCUS!!

Applications are closed! Thank you to everyone who submitted one, and keep your eyes on the Awards Board for the finalized committee roster in the coming week!
Whoa hey it's me the Mod interrupted the Game, sorry!
Yeah the direction it's taken is basically why we haven't closed this thread yet, tbh. "Do you like the above user" threads are never a great call, and we discourage making those in general because conversation like that ultimately isn't...
We are looking for ~12 focused, hard-working community members to join the 2024 MarioWiki Awards Ceremony Committee. The Awards Committee's focuses will include creating polls for the ceremony, determining details such as scheduling and committee structuring, and generally overseeing the...
What is this board?
This board is the central hub on the forum for any and all activities related to the 2024 anniversary, including its awards ceremonies and the awards season associated with those ceremonies. The ceremonies themselves, informational threads, meeting logs, tournament threads...
An Introductory Guide to Awards Tournaments
For users who are joining into Awards season for the first time, or might have questions about how Awards tournaments work, here's a simple guide to the basics of what Awards tournaments are and how you can run a tournament if you're interested in...

Topics like this are ones that require we maintain an eye on them, but they are not inherently banned on the forums. As long as respectful conversation can occur without a spread of misinformation there's no need for locking

I have thought about this question in earnest on and off, and my very honest answer is Hatsune Miku
She's not strictly a video game character, but she is from a digital software and has a remarkable presence in video games. Her status as a cultural icon and her overall vibe is enough for me to...
Not against forum rules to self-advertise as long as the thread's in Fan Creations, so I'm going to move this thread over there. Cool project, hope you pull together the support you need 👍
Good work on the sting operation, Mr. ClawgripFan (editor's note: ClawgripFan has no relation to the forum mods)
It's very clear from this interaction and the rest of their forum activity that this user is under 13, so I'm going to take them at their word and let them contact us again in 5 months
I'm hitting the ban button now but I hope you feel very proud of yourself buddy
(Haha I was being sarcastic sshhh don't tell them)
To everyone else, in earnest: there's always the report button, so if a troll pops up, please use it
The Clown Car is ready to take off!
With the nomination period come and gone, our team is slotted in as next year's Awards Committee Directorship! Thank you for trusting this treasured community tradition to be in our hands — we really do this for all of you. The four of us in the Clown Car are...
Now that this beast of *checks notes* too many words has been shared, it's time for a few closing thoughts
Thank you to my co-creators, Pitohui and Perch, for all of their efforts in making this a reality. A project like this isn't done easily, and I'm glad we could finally see it through to...
Part 10 (Finale)
At long last, with the numbers dwindling to a mere six remaining brawlers, figures begin to appear on the edges of the center stage. An area that had not been occupied since the very top of the Mega Brawl, it now presents itself as the final meeting point for the combatants who...
Part 9
With only eleven people left in the arena, any remaining alliance is sure to have a lot of strength behind it... and also to be a major target. Sholmes knows that, and he, Bushroot, ENA, and Rainbow Dash are moving carefully as they circle the arena, trying to find anyone remaining in...
Part 8
Rimi's location? Unknown. Her destination? Also unknown. Cayde's head runs empty of plans as she runs, her quickened pulse pounding in her ears, the world behind her a blur as she flees from Sholmes' alliance. She couldn't stop. She couldn't rest. If she stopped, she might not start...
Part 7
Back to a battered and bruised Honio Pitoki we go, who has since gotten back to his feet. To use his propeller would be too much effort, and at this point in the fight, it seems better to keep a low profile. So on he trudges, sweeping up his tattered fabric around his feet. Low profile...
Part 6
But we've spent far too long now in that chaotic plane, and for some time now, we've lingered around the robotic alliance, so as Gamecube's pursuit of Death continues, let us turn our attention to another part of the battlefield. To an escapee who we haven't seen for a spell…
"So...
Part 5
Across the ruins, alliances had been tested, fracturing and splintering, losing members as the deaths began to pile up. Even El Presidente's alliance had all but vanished. Once seemingly impregnable in their encampment, two of them had fallen, and Marge had run off. Now on the run, the...
Part 4
Elsewhere, as the shifting locations of the alliances bring people together, one alliance is still trying to shake a couple members. "Senpaaaai!" BB says, continuing to cling onto Sholmes' arm. "You HAVE to let me help with the next fight! Come on, we'll make this the greatest battle yet...
Part 3
But while those two fly off, let's join Corey in getting a metaphorical bird's eye view of the battlefield, shall we? As the mist around what was formerly the mineral pool drifts away, the Investor Alliance - including Clineborg and Fine - regroup at its edges, foregoing a confrontation...
Part 2
"MOVE MEN, MOVE!" Punished Luigi rises up onto his knee and motions for his team to head to 12:00 as the shootout around El Presidente's encampment escalates. Gangsta Mario and Gamer Cat strafe towards their position by the rusted pipe as they take advantage of their enemy reloading...
Part 1
"The burgers near completion. Everyone, collect a paper plate and gather round. We approach the beginning of a party unlike any other. Destiny awaits!"
"I know. Destiny. You give me many names. Destiny. The reaper. Thanatos. You dare not speak my name out of fear. You know to speak my...
A booming voice echoes from beyond...
HAAHOHAAHO! INCREDIBLE SPECTACLES AWAIT! Tonight and tonight only, forty-one entrants step into the ruins beneath Pipe Plaza to duke it out for a chance at riches and fame in the first-ever MARIO BOARDS MEGA BRAWL! A great show awaits, but first, some...

Hey, I am! Thank you for that, saying I'm an idol is very kind :') I've been floating in and out of this community since I was pretty young, and I've gotten to know and engage with some of those people who I saw as idols back then, so hearing that from you is a sweet full-circle kind of thing...
The reason why I wouldn't be miffed is because I was nonbinary all along wow who knew!
A bit of a late notice, but I'm mostly in the realm of they/them now. I still won't be mad if that gets mixed up but I appreciate keeping it in mind 👍 I'll be editing op to reflect that too
You're putting forward a very strange argument. There's actually a number of sources that'll tell you that solar power is as cost-competitive as fossil fuel burning, at least in the current year. If you'd prefer not to just look at this year, though, there's also the matter of adaptation, which...
I'm not going to add more after this initial comment, because political discussions like this on the Marioboards tend to move in odd directions after a while. I do want to respond to this briefly though (I will probably end up writing three paragraphs)
Yes, absolutely. Always and forever stand...
Well, we're about halfway through October.
This project is confirmed to be receiving its final pushback, but this time with a hard deadline: you can expect the Mario Boards Mega Brawl to be (real) on December 15th. We apologize yet again for all of these delays, but ultimately we want to...
