Sorry I meant the word "cringe". Should've been more clear on that.

Enjl wrote:ironically this topic provided it

in all honesty though that up there ^ is the only cringworthy thing in this topic. Do any of you even know what that word means?

To be fair, it is a typical NintendoOtaku post.
I'm surprised he didn't add a random smiley.

Seriously though just hearing the word "cringe" pronounced makes me grimace. It's on a level of "literally" being used incorrectly.

Not exactly, it's merely used inaccurately so not at the level of using "literally" incorrectly yet.
Literally is often used as the opposite of its intended meaning. The only word I can think of that's used as badly as "literally" is "objectively". Amusingly, both "literally" and "objectively" were intended to mean the truth (literally for the exact truth, and objectively means for truth based on facts), but both words eventually just became ways of emphasising the opposite of the intended meaning. The word "literally" was used to exaggerate, and the word "objectively" was used for opinions.

Valtteri quickly locked it for good reason. Also, I made a topic discussing how many blocks should be in a 10-coin block, which was just plain stupid (But it could still provide an interesting discussion, considering I've seen some people use different coin amounts for multicoin blocks consistently).

Who is mista epic? And what means babu?

Mista Epic was some guy that got banned in the summer of 2015, and "babu" was probably some typo of "baby" considering how close Y and U are on the keyboard.

It wasn't a typo of baby, it was just a random Danish word I decided to use for no reason.

Being an idiot probably like twelve times. I used to be the shyest person in the internet because I hate being mad. One stupid reply and I quit. My behavior in this year doesn't sounds like my last year's behavior at all. I am nice at the first.

So what means babu?

It's basically the sound a fire truck makes in Danish word form.

Pretty much the story of every episode.

I'm saying my most cringeworthy moments in SMBX are reading the stories in episodes I play.

Aren't most episode's story just "Bowser stole Peach!" ?

TheDinoKing wrote:Aren't most episode's story just "Bowser stole Peach!" ?

Not purely. We're still seeing the "oh yeah, Bowser kidnapped Peach" storyline, but most of it now is just "Some random villain (but usually Bowser) has stolen the stars and you must get them back before something catastrophic happens", and it's usually hyped up in the early stages of playing an episode, yet it's forgone completely by the time you get to world 3 or similar. I had something pretty unique in my first project (which I sadly cancelled due to lack of inspiration), where Bowser hasn't just kidnapped Peach, but he's threatening to destroy the galaxy using a bomb, and it cannot be defused without the power of the Rainbow Wand, which nobody knows of its location. The stars were planned to be a minor collect-a-thon designed to unlock secrets, much like with how TI2 handled it, and the bomb, or at least a reference to it, would make appearances at the end of every world or something. Yet now, every single episode just has to be focused on stars...gee I wonder why...

I guess I could consider that one of my cringeworthy moments, because I had got up to world 5 before I threw it all away - I should have just kept the levels and come back to them later rather than just stop it completely.

The "bowser kidnapped the princess" or "bowsers stole all the stars" concept is just irritating, I mean, you gives to the player the opportunity to create a mario thing...and they just do the exact same thing as Nintendo...it's like, can't you do something more original rather then the old 356656 time used Nintendo sauce?

Mostly because people usually don't play Mario games for the story. The story usually is just an excuse to play levels.

Storywise, the only episodes that would make sense would have cheaply designed Kaizo levels, as Bowser (or another main villain) wants to stop Mario's quest.

having a cool idea for a level/project but being too lazy to do it

True, but then the episode would be inaccessible to the average player.

I don't really consider that cringeworthy specifically, more like laziness.

Cringe laziness.

When I make a terrible level and delete it because it isn't good enough...
When I die on the last jump or enemy...
