| - | Hi, allow me to introduce myself. I'm Thunderbird L17, but generally I just go by Thunderbird. I'm an [[Wikipedia:Electrician|electrician]] from [[Wikipedia:Canada|Canada]], and I'm 19 years old.
| + | |
| - | === <span style="color:#C90">A Brief History</span> ===
| + | |
| - | I first was introduced to Homestar Runner through my cousin during a lull in the MSN conversation, via [[HR:sbemail77.html|this link]], and that was in late August of 2003. Nearly a year later, a different friend of mine gave me [[old:Peasant's Quest/Walkthrough|this link]] to a walkthrough for Peasant's Quest that she found. I was excited by this find, and intended to fully investigate this new exciting wealth of knowledge. But when I returned less than a week later, I was greeted with [[:Image:this is real.png|this image]], as the site had begun it's switch to MediaWiki. Several weeks later the image was removed, and it finally re-opened, allowing me to to create this account on September 14th, 2004. After over seven months of contributions, I was made a sysop on April 26th, 2005 during the [[HRWiki:April 2005 Sysop Nominations|2005 Sysop Nominations]].
| + | |
| - | === <span style="color:#C90">About The Screen Name</span> ===
| + | |
| - | My screenname — Thunderbird L17 — doesn't have anything to do with the [[Wikipedia:Ford Thunderbird|car]], or the fact that I'm an electrician. It's more the inspiration of the [[Wikipedia:Thunderbird (mythology)|legendary creature]] from [[Wikipedia:Native American|Native American]] mythology. And no, I am not Native American. I enjoy the heritage of [[Wikipedia:Scotland|Scotland]] and... [[Wikipedia:Ontario|Ontario]]. But I prefer the Scottish half. Thunderbird was simply my first internet screen name when I played [[Wikipedia:Age Of Empires|Age Of Empires]] back in the late 90's, now I use it for all my screen names. The L17 stands for my first initial and my age when I first started coming to this site. It's a progressive screenname; on the forum I am Thunderbird L18, and usually on the IRC chat channel I use Thunderbird L19.

| - | === <span style="color:#C90">What I Do</span> ===
| + | |
| - | I'm often sleeping or at work when the site is updated, and miss out on the "new page" rush. See my list of contributions below for the kinda work I've done around here. I also keep the Featured Article of the Week running smoothly, I'm usually the one that sends emails to other sites asking for reprint permission, and I'm always willing to help out fellow users whenever they ask. This is my second favorite website, second only to the [[Wikipedia:Homestar Runner|obvious]]. And that, in a nutshell, is me. <span style="color:#FFF">Oh, and I just so happen to own the audio of the UMFM Interview on CD. Lucky me. :)</span>

| - | == <span style="color:#C90">Top Ten Contributions</span> ==
| + | |
| - | * [[Floppy Disk Container]], [[Couch Mumbling]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> My proudest pages. I do nearly all of the info and formatting.
| + | |
| - | * [[:Template:updates-box|H*R.com updates article series]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Added nearly all of the updates for those 2000-03 by sifting through LiveJournals, and I keep the entire series of articles standardized.
| + | |
| - | * [[Interviews and Public Appearances]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Created the page, and did most of the work, including most of the pages, several transcripts, much of the research, formatting, and lots of email correspondence for the reprint permission.
| + | |
| - | * [[HRWiki:Questions]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Started it as a subpage, and threw a bunch of questions there. With the rest of the wiki's help, it has since evolved into it's own project namespace article.
| + | |
| - | * [[Strong Bad Email By Name]] and [[Strong Bad Email By Place|Place]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Read about the idea on the Strong Bad E-mail talk page, and created these twin pages in response. Added the first 100+ emails when I started it, and later reformatted the name one into tables.
| + | |
| - | * [[Store Thank You Messages]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Created the page from disorganized summaries in the Store, did pretty much all the work on it, including pics.
| + | |
| - | * [[Random Toon]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Convinced other users it was needed and spearheaded the page as soon as soon as Random toons selection began, resulting in much debugging info being saved before it was fixed and lost.
| + | |
| - | * [[Duck Guardian]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Summaries of last 20 or so levels, completely made level select after finding it in the forum (after a while the links broke and it became obsolite, but it was cool while it lasted), and came up with armor glitch.
| + | |
| - | === <span style="color:#C90">Other Proud Contributions</span> ===
| + | |
| - | * [[Holiday Toons]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Started the page and worked on it lots, including finding and listing all the additional Holiday Toons.
| + | |
| - | * [[Monkey D]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Created the page, and added the pics.
| + | |
| - | * [[Museum Sketchbook]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Expanded on a very basic summary to add pictures and captions.
| + | |
| - | * [[:Image:The Basement.PNG|Widescreen Basement Pic]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> My proudest image, it took quite a bit of work and editing to splice that image together.
| + | |
| - | * [[Making Out]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Came up with the idea, and made the page, along with a list of most of the occurances.
| + | |
| - | * [[Toilets]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Created the page, watch over it, and added most of the pics. I don't know why I like it so much, but I do.
| + | |
| - | === <span style="color:#C90">Scribings</span> ===
| + | |
| - | * [[Wired News Radio Interview - 23 June 2003]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Wrote the transcript for the entire 19 minute interview.
| + | |
| - | * [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 13.2]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Wrote the entire transcript, and built the whole base page.
| + | |
| - | * [[Sketchbook (video)]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Stumbled across it only half complete, finished the other half of the transcript.
| + | |
| - | * [[Flashforward Interview - 10 Feb 2006]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> I only scribed one minute of this transcript. The majority was done by [[User:Phlip|Phlip]], with additional pieces from [[User:Kookykman|Kookykman]], [[User:E.L. Cool|E.L. Cool]], and [[User:Qermaq|Qermaq]].
| + | |
| - | * [[NYU Talk - 1 Mar 2005]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Scribed the last half of the Sample of Style Too section.
| + | |
| - | * [[death metal]] <span style="color:#C90">⇔</span> Only scribed the Easter Eggs. Not much to brag about.
| + | |

| + | |
| - | *And I've personally welcomed over 70<!-- 74 as of Mar 6 --> new Users. <span style="color:#FFF">I was "welcomed" by "BurninatorBoombox&Markie"</span>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Most pages that aren't even on the periodical update list I watch and update. But my pet pages are listed under the Frequently Updated Pages section. They're my favorite pages. I'm very proud of the slow and methodical time I put into the updates pages, the time I spent watching every Strong Bad Email to fill out the name and place pages, and the time researching and adding the games in The Floppy Disk Container. The latter is by far my favorite page. I research the labels, add the new pics, add sources, all that good stuff. I like that page. It's my precious.
