An unfair blocking
Yesterday, I was blocked from editing pages here due to sharing an IP address with another recently blocked user, who happens to be my brother... This is unjustified... Sure, they think that I might just be an alternate account made by my brother, but I'm another user entirely, and only have the same IP address due to using the same modem... He is interested in Astronomy, I'm interested in Video Games, he's older than me, He knows more about this site than me, He has lighter skin and different hair than me, he doesn't even have a fan character similar to mine... How in the world could I be my own brother... I also tried emailing the admin who blocked me, but I never got an answer... My Block was an autoblock, with the Autoblock ID of #210890
- That autoblock is removed now, --pgk(talk) 07:13, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
Mario Kart DS Beta Version
I've been looking into MKDS lately, and on sites, I have found some good info about Beta Versions of Mario Kart DS, though I'm not sure if I should add what I've found to MKDS' Wikipedia article... Here is what I've found so far...
A user on YouTube with the alias of "mkdsbeta" has a hacked Beta version of Mario kart DS, which contains 4 courses not found in the Final version of the game, and 1 course available in the final game(with differences)... They include Mario Circuit from Mario Kart: Double Dash (Though no goombas or pirahna plants are seen)[1], What seems to be Koopa Troopa Beach from Mario Kart 64(using Cheep-Cheep beach textures)[2], The Block city battle stage from Mario Kart: Double Dash[3], a test stage(With Tubing and many curves)[4], and a Beta version of Waluigi Pinball(Which has more obstacles, and less jumps)[5]. Another Youtube user with the alias "NeoKamek" has an early retail demo copy of the game, which includes a very early version of Waluigi Pinball(Which has more alternating paths, different obstacles, and different textures)[6], and a Beta version of DK Pass(Which has less walls, No snowy textures, as well as more bumps, less turns, a smaller boost pad, and a Thwomp near the end)[7]. According to some hackers, all courses not available in the final game can be found in it by hacking, and played as they were in the beta, though they have no textures...
