Re:Infernity Mirage English name
As far as I know, the only cards whose names are 100% official are the ones we've seen on Konami's site. Any others are technically approximations, as you said. --Blue (Talk) 20:23, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

Re:Summoned Lord Exodia
The reason why I deleted was because a number of people,myself included, believe that Summoned Lord Exodia was never a card in the first place, but merely how he looked like when all his parts were gathered, making it seem questionable on whether it should have a Card Article. I think that his appearance article should be merged with the appearances of Exodia the Forbidden One,since it is basically the center card. Or maybe it should go in the Exodia page. If you think that I should undelete the article, at least to see it for yourself, then say it. You seem to be quite trustworthy. And thanks for pointing out those pages for deletion.PoirotH 05:22, May 4, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Unreachable redirect
Ah yes, you're right, this problem frequently happens with namespace additions. The redirect "Set Card Lists:Duel Master's Guide Promo (TCG-EN)" exists as a mainspace title, while we can only look at the "Set Card Lists" namespace version.

That custom namespace was added on the 14th April 2008, I think. KyleH seems to have temporarily moved all "Set Card Lists" out of the way before installing the namespace to avoid problems like this. He must have missed this one.

Wikia staff have the access needed to remove it. e.g. Uberfuzzy got rid of the Property:ATK in the mainspace, while logs for the title only show the Property namespace version.

Poking staff to delete the title shouldn't be too troublesome. As for fixing logs and history, I don't think there's anything important there. I think it can be fixed by having mainspace pages starting with "Set Card Lists" transferred to the namespace, like when we got our first set of custom namespaces. (Card Rulings, Card Tips, etc.) (That may cause problems if there are pages with the same title.) But yeah, the logs and deleted history aren't so important and probably not worth fixing.

If you want to ask staff to have the problem fixed, you can ask them at Special:Contact. If you'd rather I do it, let me know if there are any more titles with this problem and I'll contact them. Thanks. -- Deltaneos (talk) 09:58, May 24, 2010 (UTC)

 * Your messages to him on his talk page here are pretty clearly taunting and insulting him. If you feel he is somehow inferior to you because he still likes Sesame Street at his age (which there is really nothing wrong with), you are merely stooping to his level by engaging in this type of behavior.

Approximate name
Hi got your last message. Actually, to tell you the truth translating card names in greek is the ONLY useful thing i do here. I used to add lores and trivia too but i kicked that habbit. Anyway, i'm aware of the Approximate name template or whatever you call it. I have used it several times. But since it was a bit boring adding it all the time, i chose to offer this sentence as an edit summary: "Approximate greek name added". I thought it was pretty much the same and if someone wants to change or even revert my edits then he knows all abt them. Plus, lately i added a new section in my user page where i list all the names who have been loosely translated. I know most people don't give a crap abt them but who knows maybe someone could be interested. If you want me to add the "approximate name" thing each time i think it's necessary, then yes by all means i'll. After all i want my transaltions to be a 100% accurate. (yeah i know that's impossible)

In fact, the YGO series have already been translated in my language. Keep this between us; the translators did an awful work. Besides, i'm sure the game itself will never be translated in greek. I'm only doing this to help people who don't speak english so well. Aren't I a good Samaritan? LOL

BTW, what did you mean by saying "reply here"? Look, if you meant my Talk Page then i'm really sorry i replied here. I wasn't sure what you meant that's all. (dude, you have like 100 links in your signature!)

P.S. In extreme cases i've also created pages under the link card names where i give the literal translation. --Montechristo95 23:12, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

Card Names:Arcana Force 0 - The Fool
I created this page today and I also thought abt doing that. I was waiting for Deltaneos' permission that's all. I wasn't sure if it was ok with the Wikia policy to do that. --Montechristo95 20:37, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

And to answer your question, no I wouldn't put it on the trivia page. I believe it's more abt the name itself. No matter how stupid this may sound, it's some sort of definition for the english name given. I dunno... we can talk abt this if you want. --Montechristo95 20:44, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

Approximate card names
I didn't mind you butting in, but I did mind you misspelling my name xD. Yeah, the discussion did reach a dead end abruptly to be honest. I do add the "Approximate" tag whenever adding unofficial names. As for other cards that need the tag, and the bot, well it is a good idea. However, I'll have to find some way to get a hold of the Greek dubbed anime (which stopped being produced at some random point) and get the cards as well as the official names. That will be a big pain - maybe more than it's worth. But I'll see what I can do about it. I'll keep you posted. --Darth Covah (Talk | DeckZone | Binder) 01:42, June 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi it's me. Well, i noticed some of your edits and i thought abt asking you sth. Does it really matter if i don't write the approximate name in capital? I mean, it appears normally when the edit is over. And one more thing; is it necessary to put the approximate names and the translated names in general, in alphabetical order? Thanks. --Montechristo95 07:00, June 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Neither is strictly necessary, but it's probably better in the long run to be anal about it. =) Don't worry *too* much about either issue if you find them too much trouble to bother with; my bot will take care of them on its maintenance runs (assuming I can ever figure out how to automate alphabetization). =) 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 07:53, June 19, 2010 (UTC)

Question
Sorry if i am becoming annoying; when i wanna add an unofficial approximation, what do I write? Thanks! --Montechristo95 22:36, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nah, you're not annoying - I needed a wake-up call (or a nap)... =) Hmm... If you mean, you want to specifically mark an unofficial translation as approximate, there's no built-in way to do so... you could use Approximate name instead of Unofficial name, but there's no guarantee it won't be updated to the non-redirect name (and indeed, my bot is currently changing it like that). For now, I guess, you can add another parameter, something like . It's not actually supported by the template currently, but my bot will leave it alone and support can always be added in the future if necessary. Hope this helps! 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 22:43, June 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm gonna give it a try. Thanks again for your reply. --Montechristo95 22:51, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Hey
Hey what's up? It's me. All right look, I left you this message in order to apologise for the trouble I got you into today reading torn-apart conversations. I shouldn't have lost my temper so easiy over such a trivial issue. Maybe you want to invite RabbitUp to join the forum. (that is if you haven't done so already) --Montechristo95 22:52, June 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's no problem; that just happens to be one of my pet peeves. =) This discussion may have been better suited for the forum, though, true. From what I gathered, though, it sounds like you've been using Google for your translations - there's nothing inherently wrong with this, but Google's translations should be taken with a grain of salt, instead of as Word of God. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 23:14, June 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm only using Google when i'm stuck with a difficult word or i'm not sure abt sth. I don't think it's that wrong to do it but i'll pay attention to your advice. I'm also using the freeonlinedictionary when google fails to give me the answer i need. --Montechristo95 23:23, June 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * Aah, that's not so bad. It sounded like you were simply plugging words into it and running with the given translations. If you don't mind a bit more advice (and can work around the fact that it comes from translating between Japanese and English, which is miles away from Greek<->English), I find it often helps, after translating to the target language, to plug the offered translation back in and see what Google Translate does with it. This can also lead to other possibilities for the translation to use, depending what it says about the word's definitions, synonyms, etc. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 23:28, June 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * I have to say I'm kinda offended by you for thinking that even for a second. I'm always trying to have my translations 100% accurate so that I can avoid incidents like my quarrel with RabbiUp. Whenever I'm not sure abt a translation I give, then i offer a summary which mentions it so that others can improve it. Don't think I forget the approximations I give; i will definitely improve them someday. If you still doubt abt my skills as a translator, you can ask other greek translators here to tell you their opinions abt me. (even RabbitUp recognised my edits). I hate it when one of my translation is proven wrong and I also admit that I'm prideful abt my edits and i don't like being correctioned by anyone. It's true that I had several argues today but they did point out some of my mistakes and I'll try to correct them. Again, thanks for your advice; I've already tried that in the past but I stopped it because it was time-consuming and also it made me feel depended on Google. --Montechristo95 23:39, June 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sorry about that, it wasn't my intention to offend you by any means - that's just what it seemed like you were saying, based on what I was able to get out of the conversation, but it is hardly my opinion of you. =) I know it can be quite time-consuming (though I'd wager it doesn't hold a candle to attempting to back-translate English chapter titles into the original Japanese, when I have the original Japanese chapter titles but no way to copy them, and do not read Japanese myself @_@ ). 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 23:47, June 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well thanks for your apology, it made me feel better; or at least it calmed down my ravenous anger. For your information, most of RabbitUp's edits were corrections of the style adding capital letters to the words or giving an alternate synonym which in most cases was proven to be wrong. I've put quite The effort these days to translate card names and maybe I'm devoting too much time in this Wiki. But I think my translation project is well-organised and correct and I can't accept insultive and pointless corrections or doubts by other users. To tell you the truth, I seriously considered abandoning this Wiki today after all that happenned and I do feel really bad for annoying Deltaneos for nothing.
 * Btw, I didn't know you did that; that must be quite tiring to say the very least. But I guess when you have a passion for sth you can keep doing it no matter how much exhausting it might be. --Montechristo95 23:58, June 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * It can be hard sometimes, but always try to remember - it's only the Internet. If you have to, step away from your monitor for five minutes and just try to relax or something. =)
 * And yeah, it wasn't easy, and I ended up with several kanji which didn't really match, but I couldn't find anything better for them - the series, BTW, was Planetes, and I definitely have a passion for the medium (manga). =D 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 00:07, June 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes I've actually tried this several times. But today it would just not work. The guy pissed me off with his attitude and the thing that really drove me over the edge was the fact that he looked down on me because he's older than me by 5 years. What a vast difference don't you think? I could also post some crap like "I'm 25 years old and I speak English fluently". It would be a lot easier that way. But I guess I pay the price for being frank. --Montechristo95 00:21, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Unofficial name template
Noticed you add it at every card which still has the approximate one. That must be really tedious. Need some help with it? --Montechristo95 (talk • contribs) 23:55, July 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nah, I'm just doing that to clear out some of the subcategories of Category:Card pages with an approximate name (changing the template isn't strictly necessary, but I'm editing the pages anyways, so...). Besides, my bot does the change automatically anyways (when I happen to run it ;) ), so they'll all be converted eventually anyways. You should certainly feel free to update the usage yourself when you're editing card pages for other reasons, though. =) 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 00:10, July 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Of course. I don't add the template to cards when I don't have anything else to edit as well, but whenever I see it when I translate a card name I correct it. Yeah, I forgot your bot sorry. --Montechristo95 (talk • contribs) 12:56, July 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * No problem. The only reason I've not run my bot any recently is that I'm working on something new and I don't have all the kinks worked out yet (that, and I haven't worked all the bugs out of the regexes for it, either =) ). 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 15:24, July 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ok. All right, this is kinda irrelevant to our conversation but it is somewhat important so I would ask you some day. But since I hate annoying you all the time, I'm gonna go straight ahead and ask: When I translate Anime-only and Manga-only card names, is it necessary to add the template or not? I'm talking of course about cards mentioned in the anime series which haven't been dubbed yet in my language. --Montechristo95 (talk • contribs) 21:25, July 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Please feel free to annoy me all you'd like; one side effect of all my time spent on Wikipedia is that I enjoy answering questions from other users - I like the feeling of helping others out, and I also like the chance to test how much I know and how clearly I can explain it. =) As for tagging unofficial translations of anime- and manga- (and, by extension, video game-, but I have no idea what the state of Greek licensing of YGO video games is) only cards, I would say it's probably not as important, but it also couldn't hurt, if the little bit of extra work doesn't bother you too much. =) Also, in case you haven't noticed it yet, I thought I'd point out that in the InsertChars box below the edit window, I've added a link to automatically add the code " " into the edit window, thus saving you some typing. As an added bonus, it automatically positions the cursor between the pipe and closing brackets, so you can immediately insert the language name after clicking it, without having to scroll or click inside the edit box or anything. Cheers! =) 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 03:53, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

About the video games, hmm...I don't really know for sure but I highly doubt that they have been translated in Greek. Ok, I'll add the template.

The infobox used to change bulleted lists to another neat list format. Since the HTML table conversion, the bullet is visible on the first item on the lists as an *. See the release dates section on Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's World Championship 2010: Reverse of Arcadia for example. Are you able to fix this?

Note that I ran this change on top of all other changes my bot is set up with (except the experimental stuff), so most of the edited pages have recieved random fixes aside from the bypassed redirect. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 16:13, July 10, 2010 (UTC)

Level 12 Monsters
There is 1 level 12 monster: Dragon Master Knight. Just to let you know.
 * I never claimed there were no level 12 monsters. There are currently, in fact, 13 level 12 monsters, counting the anime-only ones. What I instead stated was that there are no level -12 (that is, negative 12) monsters. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 03:07, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

((Rarity))
Is there any reason why the templates are on top? Also, should the abbreviated rarities in parenthesises be unlinked? Bracketing them seems to get the point through. Thanks! Toob (Leave a message) 03:22, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * No idea; that predates any involvement I had with the template.
 * I like them better linked, but I guess it's ultimately just personal preference. Unlink them if you'd like. =) 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 03:24, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

Multiple Forumheader categories
Some forums are put into multiple topics, such as Forum:E-Mailed Rulings from Konami. But now only the category for the first topic is added. Could you take a look? I'd rather not risk interfering with the changes you've made to Template:Forumheader. -- Deltaneos (talk) 16:15, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I know what the problem is; I already updated it to allow two forum breadcrumb links, and completely forgot about the categories. =P Are there any threads using more than two topics? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 07:08, July 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * Not that I know of. -- Deltaneos (talk) 19:11, July 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * All right. If there are, they'll eventually be caught in Category:Forumheader transclusions to be checked. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 06:19, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks again!
Just noticed an edit you made in my page 3 days ago. Thanks for fixing the link to the movie! Yeah, those godamn links sure are tricky and I'm not an experienced editor. --Monte (talk • contribs) 18:13, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Heh, no problem... I've noticed that you've got a couple other "long links" to Wikipedia articles; I can update those with interwiki syntax for you if you'd like (and if you haven't already done it yourself)... =) 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 19:54, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks again! Yeah, card stories are cool. I have written one of them; see Dark Ruler Ha Des in the Card Storylines. --Monte (talk • contribs) 20:20, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'd like to know how many others there are that haven't been officially documented... and how much planning they put into these "easter egg" storylines. =D 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 20:25, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * There is also the Warrior of Zera story (personal fav). Dunno but they are probably pretty much concerned about them. Thanks for the edit count btw, it was annoying me the way it was before. --Monte (talk • contribs) 20:32, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm just glad this wiki doesn't use a Monaco stylesheet that turns all text white by default; that causes all sorts of problems with templates and boxes and stuff that have to be fixed on a case-by-case basis... 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 22:42, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes about that. I don't know about you but I have changed the background of the wiki by visiting my preferences option. I guess that applies only for my account. Anyway, I'm currently using a skin called "Carbon". It makes the background grey and gives the wiki a more shady look. I just couldn't stand that damn red-white style the admins have chosen for a general style. The annoying thing is that the background i'm using does turn all letters white by default. That's not always a bad thing; but in some cases the letters can't be read. And I was wondering; is there a way so that I could bypass this problem? Some sort of...adjustment? Hope you understand what I'm saying... --Monte (talk • contribs) 23:40, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed, changing your skin only changes it for you. You're actually not the only one who doesn't like the custom Monaco skin; Deltaneos uses the Monobook skin, and the only reason I use Monaco Custom is because I like to see what custom work wiki admins have put into their skins. As for the color problem, you could try something like  in your monaco.css file, adjusting the color value until you find one with a good readability balance for the main background versus the white/off-white used in many templates. 「 ダイノ ガイ  千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 00:16, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Is there a special code for each color that I need to imput or should I just enter the color's name? --Monte (talk • contribs) 00:31, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's CSS, so it can be an HTML color name, an X11 color name, a hex triplet, or an RGB triplet. For more information, have a look at Wikipedia's Web colors article. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 04:12, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

Unofficial Names
Hai :)! I have a small question: Does the Arabic "Official" name mean the one used in the Anime Dub? =] --Hydronic (talk • contribs) 13:44, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Basically. A card name is "official" in a given language if it has been used in any official media in that language. The anime, the manga, video games, the cards themselves, even stuff like posters or toys. =) 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 05:19, July 16, 2010 (UTC)

Messing with style pages
Actually I was hoping you'd... "play around" with them that time. w:c:anime:MediaWiki:Anime-Box.css is part of the synced CSS. But the amount of style classes (see the bottom of that page) given is quite limited. Do you know how we would go about adding more? -- Deltaneos (talk) 17:07, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * That probably depends on what you're wanting to add exactly. For instance, IMHO we shouldn't use these styles to style CardTable2, but instead develop a "card-table" class here with appropriate subclasses, which is something I've been meaning to do for a while anyways. That is based on my own experience working with CSS, though, and there *could* be very good arguments for using the generalized styles. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 17:14, July 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * You know more about this than me, so you probably know the better course of action. What I had been trying you can see here. It'd be like the one labelled "Example", which is using one of the styles classes from Animepedia. But would apply colours like in the other tables in the same fashion. But as I said, you know more about this than me, so I'll trust your better judgement. -- Deltaneos (talk) 18:09, July 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * I wouldn't say I have better judgment, necessarily, just maybe more experience (and I don't actually have a great deal of experience working with multiple class names; I may look around and see if I can find anyone who's blogged about it). Offhand, having had a couple of hours to think about why I don't like the idea of a bunch of class names, my biggest objection is in the number of classes itself - every class name you add increases the likelihood that something breaks, or that someone inadvertently breaks the whole thing when they're editing (this can happen to *anyone*, regardless of how experienced they are, even to the creator of the class system). As for the example page, yeah, I'm pretty sure I've had that on my watchlist since within a day of you creating it (I seem to have a creepy penchant for stalking you on here =D ).
 * One last question, if you don't mind answering (and assuming I haven't answered for you XD ); what country do you live in? Your English is generally too good for it to be likely that you're from anywhere outside Europe, the Americas, or parts of Oceania (nor have I seen any signs that you might be in your mannerisms, etc.), and I know for a fact that you don't speak Arabic or Portuguese (and, going out on a limb, you probably don't speak Spanish either). My best guess, based on the variant of English you use, is that you're from the UK or Australia/New Zealand. (as you might guess, this is something that I've wondered about for a while; at least since Fallensilence wished you a happy Fourth of July and you responded that you didn't live in the USA) 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 19:14, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks
For helping with the Spanish Wikia's Card template. Just something, since it looks like you're a good template maker and I'm a freshman. There are some boxes that shouldn't appear if there is no info about it like some language names and Synchro/Fusion Material box. Also the color of Spells/Traps/Virus/Trap-Spells don't appear in the Big Name box. BTW, the names inside the big name box should be of a size of 24, I tried to put it but it didn't work. Also if you could put for the Attributes (Atributo) to appear their symbol file. Thanks. OMG! You did it (talk • contribs) 19:00, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Selective showing/hiding of table rows is trivial; I'll be over in a minute to do it for you (the basic idea is to surround the whole row in ).
 * The entire color selecting code is just one massive mess (even here) which I plan to simplify exponentially by developing a set of styles for CardTable2 (see the above thread) and forking CardTable2 into per-card-game variants.
 * If you mean the box that shows the card's English (or, rather, Spanish) and Japanese names, above the whole table, that should be easy enough.
 * Attributes should also be easy, assuming all the attribute icons are named consistently - can you provide a list of them? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 19:19, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

ideas for this wikia
For this website we can move the side bar to the top of the home page and add a bunch of pics. The pictures can change every time there is a new event going on involving Yu-Gi-Oh whether it be a new game or tournament. This will make this site stand out from the other wikis.--Dark luster god (talk • contribs) 16:56, July 30, 2010 (UTC)dark luster god


 * Welcome to the wiki, Dark luster god! Unfortunately, our control over the layout of the interface (such as the positioning of the sidebar) is basically zero, unless we want to get into some really complicated CSS/JS stuff. I'm not sure what you're trying to ask in regards to the images, though. However, I would recommend that you ask any wiki-related questions in Forum:Yu-Gi-Oh! Wiki Community Discussion from now on, so that everyone else can see and comment on them easier (you can always ask me for editing help if you need it ;) ).

April Fools images
Posting here, since it seems too off topic for the forum.

Wikia clears out deleted file revisions every so often. Both of those images were uploaded here at one point, but can't be viewed anymore, even if one is able to view deleted page revisions. I can't find the "Tragoedia" one anywhere else, but here's one of the "Dark Magician Girl". -- Deltaneos (talk) 17:48, July 31, 2010 (UTC)


 * So I've noticed. Who originally made the DMG, and was it specifically made for here, or what? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 18:01, July 31, 2010 (UTC)


 * It wasn't made specifically for this site. I don't know who originally made it. I'm not even sure if the site it was plucked from even credited the original creator. -- Deltaneos (talk) 18:27, July 31, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hmm... do you know if it was even originally made for April Fools', then? 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 00:22, August 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * It was originally made for... fanservice. There are loads of hentai "Dark Magician Girl" card images on the internet. Someone on IRC was pointing to a site full of them once and Huajun Chen joked that it would make a good April Fools'. Months later, I hunted down a not-so-revealing one to use. -- Deltaneos (talk) 01:13, August 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * That's kinda what I suspected. It's not the first fanservice YGO card I've seen, but it seems pretty funny for you to have used one for April Fools. =D 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 07:27, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
