Otherworldly Being

[Mr EliteL]

Who or what am I? Am I human? Am I living? Am I good? Am I evil? Do I have a conscience? Am I a fragment of imagination? Do I not exist? The answers to these questions are unknown. Or are they?

Whatever I am, I reside by the Trash Can of our Space Station of...Happy Lucky Fun People! Or in other times you can find me in my Fortress Of...good intentions, and Knitting. Wait, I don't do much of that second thing anymore. Or didn't even start. Anyway! Let's move on to my false identity. I mean true self.

Greetings, I am called Mr EliteL! Everyone regards me as "EL" here though (or other alternatives as there as been), and I am fine with that. As long as I know who you're referring to. My original username for these forums used to be "Elite Luigi", as I started the forum under, *eternal groan*, " Elite SmashBash Luigi Forums". I was useless at naming back then in 2006, and stupidly liked the word 'Elite', hence my decision (at age 16, too naive). My first forum (called Wrestling Covers Forum) name was actually "SmashBash" (derived from Super Smash Bros series and Crash Bash), where I got suspended, joined Luigi's Site Forum, and got inspired to start my own on InvisionFree. My favourite character was Luigi. Great title, self *slow clap*. I was so happy it changed to Elite Gamers Forum. Although even that's a bit, y'know. We were young though. When Super Paper Mario came around, I really liked Luigi's alternate self, Mr. L. So I changed for our second forum at some point. Then our overhaul happened properly, and we became Universal Gaming, which has such a better ring to it. Why have I stuck with this name instead of SmashBash? Well, it's what I used for the start of this, and want to stick by it now. Regardless of looking silly with the Elite bit. I don't consider myself 1337 though.

I didn't mean to go into the history of my username like that, but whatever. So prepare yourself, even though this is probably halfway, or quarter in length now, for a long introduction post.

What you have hopefully come here for! What does this guy like? Well, let's start with the prime focus of the forum, video games! Not so much as I used to, but I do own and have played my share of games. My first family console was the Atari 2600. Consoles I've had or own personally are PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, Game Boy Advance, GameCube, DS, Wii and 3DS. Have some PC games, on disc or digital. Played Xbox games & Switch only at conventions.

My gamer tag is "SmashBashEL" or "SmshB". The former is what I go by on YouTube and Twitch too.

I mainly play Action Adventure, RPGs, Tactical/Strategy and Fighting games. Do like Puzzle, Racing and maybe some other genres too. Series I like would be Tekken, BlazBlue, Uncharted, Super Smash Bros, Mario, Rayman, Crash, Worms, Bomberman, the odd Sonic game (Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Advance).

Let's do this again, favourite games for each console, barring Atari (as I was too young, haven't played in years and not certain on what it would be...maybe Combat)

PC: Atomic Bomberman (subject to change)
PS1: Rayman 2: The Great Escape/Worms Armageddon
PS2: Maybe Persona 3: FES....still need to complete a playthrough, Tekken Tag Tournament if not.
PS3: Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen (undoubtedly)
PS4: Tekken 7 (subject to change), possibly Uncharted 4
N64: Paper Mario (Virtual Console)
GBA: Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga
GC: Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (still my No.1 out of anything)
DS: Luminous Arc 2
Wii: ....Mario Kart Wii or Brawl
3DS: Stella Glow

Other things I enjoy include Anime, Manga, Music, Art, Scrabble, some Movies, MCU, the odd Tennis (Federer!), FOOD(!) everybody likes food. OK, getting a bit lame here. I do drawing and art, just trying to get actual recent, decent stuff started and/or finished.  :dodgy:

*inhale* Favourite Characters from games and media! Let's keep it limited here....I'll name ten in no particular order.

Hazama, Henry (FE:A), Lee Chaolan, Luigi, Nathan Drake, Gintoki, Gin Ichimaru, Kamina, Sadie (Luminous Arc 2), Izuna (Unemployed Ninja).

Personal crap: I work in retail, live with my mum and sister, as I can't afford my own place or even joint with my sister. Otherwise we wouldn't have done the bullshit we had to this year. Taking a mortgage, to help my mum out of the situation with my dad, or face living in worse conditions. Yay. Haven't got a drivers license yet.
Best thing to be happening this year? Upcoming two weeks holiday in Florida, to see Moony, Shira and whoever else shows up, along with Moony's family who'll be travelling with me. Can wait! Because there's plenty of other stuff going on between now and then. Eeeeeyay?

Is that it?! Is this finally over? It soon will be....

Ughnnn.. My brain is in art mode, not 133+ mode atmo. >.< Hey, yo Mr El.

Oddish question; what did you think of Paper Mario: Color Splash?

[Mr EliteL]

Hoo boy, do I feel silly spending so much time and typing so much out for this topic. XD Ah, I suppose I was thinking brand new members coming in here. Did get kind of carried away.

@Yuri: How the hell did that take me 4 minutes to read that? That felt a lot longer, actually. Proves how 1337 I am. Thanks though, and yes would be cool if you have your license when I come down next time. Don't know when that'll be though.

@Queen: I've never played it, so my thoughts go by what I've seen or watched. If I had a Wii U, I think I may have bought this, since I liked the look of the game over Sticker Star (also haven't played that). Losing colour spelling disaster for the world. Art style is brilliant actually, however character design wasn't. Mario, Peach and Bowser are fine, as are the Koopalings. Great they get to be in a Paper Mario game. Everyone else seems to be generic, and I don't like saying that because I haven't interacted with them. The humour though I know is still there, so glad that's stayed. They do not go wrong there, for M&L games too. Doubt I will play either game now though. Any new Paper Mario game has it hard the most for me personally. I could've gotten Sticker Star, but I wasn't interested enough at the time, or now. Kinda wish Wii U lasted longer, but alas.

I appreciate that you took the time to read that mess. I honestly didn't expect it to be that bad. That was only level 1 l33t. XD

I actually don't know you much at all, so that was cool to read

Was kinda rendered question-less, though

[queenzelda]

You gonna get that Luigi's Mansion 3DS remaster?

[ShiraNoMai]

... joined Luigi's Site Forum, and... 

That sure was a fun time way back when, huh? If I hadn't joined there, I'd not have met all you wonderful people (well, maybe not Moonface...). I was merely a dumb 12 year old with a silly obsession with Yoshi. Now I'm a 24 year old with a silly obsession with Yoshi! -shot-

I didn't know you got suspended, though, from that first forum. What the heck did you do to deserve that?  :s

I'm glad someone's appreciated my lengthy post in that way. Was the intention, and I didn't expect you to go out of your way, reading everyone's KYG threads on the last forum to find stuff out.

You gonna get that Luigi's Mansion 3DS remaster?

At the moment no, as I never completed LM2 (many other games I need to complete, and have barely any will to, too). However, I did get Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga's remaster, so might turn into a yes, mainly for nostalgia reasons. If my budget allows.

Yes, so long ago now. I barely remember stuff about LSF other than meeting you and Yuri there (plus others who are no longer part of our forum), and that the place at least two more iterations in the span of our first one. XD

Posting in, thus bumping old topics. That's what I was done for. Which spurred me on to look for another forum to go to, so LSF then EGF. I think because WCF was quite big and very active, seeing a smaller forum like LSF made me realise why not try my own for a little while? 11-12 years later, and we're still going. Unbelievable.

I don't think I was on LSF was I? I believe I met you Nikki's forum? I am unsure myself actually...  :s

[Moonface]

I forgot you got suspended from WCF. I think I questioned them about that but it was so long ago it's hard to recall. I wonder if they're still going or if WWE Network killed off the market for custom wrestling covers.

Hey EL I actually thought up a few good questions for you.

1. Have you been drawing recently?
2. Do you have plan to continue your Mario & Luigi comic?
3. Any new story ideas in the work?

[Mr EliteL]

@Moony: Ah, you asked them about that? I don't remember what happened afterwards. I think I did come back after the period was over for like a few moments, then couldn't be bothered with the forum anymore.

I don't think I was on LSF was I? I believe I met you Nikki's forum? I am unsure myself actually...  :s

Yeah, I think that was more than likely the case. Shira remembers it like that too, so makes sense. I was thinking that other member was only a part of LSF, but they must've been on Yoshi's Domain too then, as you knew them too. That was in the past though, and things changed. Let's never speak of it again. XD

Hey EL I actually thought up a few good questions for you.

1. Have you been drawing recently?
2. Do you have plan to continue your Mario & Luigi comic?
3. Any new story ideas in the work?

1. Sort of, on and off with unfinished stuff. I started using my MangaStudio with my Bamboo tablet, those are also unfinished. I need a day to concentrate on only drawing to be able to finish something, I think. I keep getting side tracked when I do start on something, or it's too late in the day.
2. Nope, that's done. Incomplete, but I've no interest in that, I only want to do original work now, unless it's a gift for someone.
3. Not really, still got my main story idea, plus I've got my little Chirpy guy that I don't want to abandon either, but don't know if I will do something with it.

[Karo]

You hear the voice of some mysterious man screaming, "JUST DO IT! Yesterday you said today! Don't let your dreams just be dreams! Just do it!"



I'm sorry EL, but I believe my meme game is on point today, but seriously do set aside the time build good habits and you can create your comics!

[Nightingale]

Ever played or heard of that Job Simulator game on VR? I'm sure it would make you feel a lot better about working retail (it certainly did the trick for me) xD
