About Me
In November, 2006, I was making articles on Wikipedia for Gunster: Rain of Bullets and various other things when I noticed that "game guide information" was not allowed on Wikipedia. Thus I panicked and sought refuge for my work. I found GameInfo, where I dumped some of my contributions, as well as StrategyWiki whose active community and much more original wikistyle had me hooked.

Notmyhandle is my public domain pseudonym, I have several identities which I try to keep separate.

I work with cleanup, screenshots and image touch ups, content, inquiry, helping with community issues; basically everything besides admining.

I love video games, I love gathering data for them just as much (maybe even more). I probably spend more time on StrategyWiki than doing anything else besides wasting time.

I do all of my edits by hand, the most automated processes I rely on are copy/paste, some simple regular expressions and the find functions within IE (yes I use IE by default, but have FireFox if need be).

Need help? Ask in either my talk page or the Staff Lounge, I'd also like you to come join me and the others in the SW IRC Channel, I get lonely ='(

My Gaming History
Although I'm relatively young, I grew up playing NES and Atari games, and I still have many of my NES carts (we went through maybe 4 systems but none survived). PC games were also a big thing since my brother purchased a Pentium 400 or something which I played Commander Keen games and Warcraft: Orcs and Humans on. Eventually I killed that computer (I have no idea how, DOS is magical XD) and we got a newer one later which I played Ascendancy, Civilization, Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness, and The Secret of Monkey Island on.

I think I was 8 or so before I got my SNES (it was like $115 used with several games), which I still have. I was given Shadow Run as part of the bundle, which after being stumped on I went and traded it for Secret of Mana; a great trade indeed (although I had to pay an extra $20 or so). I feel bad for getting rid of that game though, I have only traded/sold like five games in my life and I've regretted every single exchange.

When I turned 11, 5th grade, I rented an N64 and had a party with a couple of friends, playing GoldenEye 007 and Starfox 64. That December my cousins and and my brothers recieved an N64 to be split between us. After several years of swapping we ended up with the system (which I still have).

Around the age of 14 I got a GameCube for my birthday with Luigi's Mansion.

At the age of 16 I got a student Visa with a low limit. Thus the ability to purchase things online was now mine. I went on a Genesis rampage and now have 1-3 consoles (I haven't checked my inventory for a while), about 10 controllers, several crazy adapters, a 32X without a connector cable (T_T), a Menacer Rifle, about 8 Sonic the Hedgehog 2 cartridges, and many other games.

That's about it, 'cept I've been buying games in between my whole life.

Thank Yous
