Has anyone noticed the koopa ranks got changed?
They were SMW styled and now they are SMB3 styled.
Why was this changed?

<Quill> i couldn't remember the exact sprites so i went with whatever
<Cedur> koopa shell is red
goomba and bowser were SMB-styled, green koopa was SMW-styled
mario, luigi, ... looked the same as in the credits
<Quill> was the shell SMB3 or SMW
<Cedur> red SMB3
<Quill> @Cedur done them all except luigi, who i can't find that variation of
<8luestorm> I think it's fire luigi with a pink yoshi iirc
<waddle> but does it really matter
<Cedur> it was fire luigi with a blue yoshi iirc

Yeah, that's why but it's not really too important.

If only this site was archived in the Wayback Machine, we'd be able to sort them out without hassle.
Oh nvm, i just searched it up, i'm gonna look for the true luigi sprite.
Ah. I tried to access the member list to see if it would show up, but it said i am not authorised to view the member list or profiles. Possibly because i am not logged in? Idk.
EDIT:
Ah yes, it was ice luigi with purple yoshi. Thank you, Wayback Machine. If only you stored every page on the internet.
This is the sprite in question:

EDIT 2:
I literally just realised this sprite was already here. What a waste of time xD

The credits clearly show that it's blue yoshi. So this rank was remembered correctly.

Also Taycamgame I'm sure you couldn't access the profiles because you were using Wayback Machine. On the site itself you can always access them even if not logged in.

Also, can someone explain that new theme that happened the other day and all those weird ranks of some dancing king?

Was it an April Fools?

It was an april fools joke. However, you are able to change the theme yourself by going to
Profile -> Edit Profile -> Board Preferences.
There you will see a box that allows you to change your theme, there are 3 currently but more will be added soon.

The dancing king is a sprite from the Tower of Biased series, it resembles Ignoritus.

You know how the role "Level Designers" still exists but is basically meaningless? Perhaps it should be considered to replace that with level reviewers? We do have a unique level reviewer rank and it's good enough as is, but wouldn't it also be useful if there was a level reviewer role? Just a suggestion.

Level reviewer=Reviews levels
Level designer=Designs levels

Level designer role is pretty much useless nowadays though from what i've heard.
Anyway, was just a suggestion :)

Yeah, the level designer group has become obsolete. However Level Reviewers are not supposed to be a usergroup by nature (as explicitely said in Kley's thread).

Forgot about that part. Also seems level reviewers are no longer being recruited as it wasn't mentioned in the month of april thread?
Also tbh i guess if it was still the level judges system that we had, i probably wouldn't be one right now, so i am thankful that i have been given this fantastic opportunity to help out.

I forgot, weren't Level Designers recruited to basically make "official" episodes or something like that?
