News: Some Reminders
There's been a few common issues in some recent submissions that I'd like to address to try and make things flow a little quicker moderation-wise.
The first is ROMs. Please, do NOT submit ROM files! Doing so is an instant ban from the site. Please make an IPS patch of your hack instead - it's smaller, and less illegal.
The second, on that note, is hack IPS patches. Please test your patches before uploading, to ensure that they correctly patch to a clean, 512kb SMW ROM. It's very simple to create a working patch using Lunar IPS.
In other news, we've had a few recent promotions. Please welcome HyperHacker and Blumiere to the staff team, and congratulate Ersanio on becoming a Global Moderator!
I also wondered how Count Bleck (Blumiere) got the position. His user ID is almost 500 over mine, and as far as I know, he wasn't known on another site like HyperHacker was. On the other hand, though, I know nothing about him, nor have I looked at the Yoshi's Island Hacking forum much. So I really can't and shouldn't judge. Blumiere, if you really are that good, then congratulations to you!
HyperHacker...well, I know he was a member in good standing of Acmlm's Board, so it makes sense in his case. I noticed Smallhacker's comment about them being rivals.
Personally, I'm curious to see how it will turn out. I wonder if either of them will win any awards in the next SMWC Mosts. I wonder what they will be known for...
I also was wondering why Blumiere became staff... but after seeing some of his posts on the Yoshi's Island Hacking forum, I realized that he has REALLY contributed to Yoshi's Island hacking, by making charts and stuff.
That being said, congrats to the newest staff members!
@ Sunset Sonata: If you've seen how much help he's been giving to people in the Yoshi's Island hacking section you would know why Blumiere became a mod for that section. Insulting someone on a promotion like that the day that the received it, without even attempting to see how they'd do in their modding position is disgusting to say the least.
Hey Sunset Sonata. Blumiere only got promotion to YI because he really helps people and details in there answers. Besides YI bored are like dead, so why give a damn anyways. Honestly.

Okay, how the heck did Bluiere become a moderator?
But what ever, choose your mods how ever you like, because one day one of them will turn on you guys >
Congrats anyways...
