About Me
Hello, my name is AHumbleMrPerfect. I've been lurking in the shadows since before Snaileb had a gyrating stormtrooper for an avatar. I am a current student, future hobo at Northern Michigan University. I am so close to Canada, that a moose busted my washing room window two years ago (it was on CNN). When I'm not wrasslin' grizzlies, drinking away the cold and lonely winter, or bedding large hirsute women (reference grizzlies), I'm gaming.

I game like the 70-year old women in casinos smoke, like it's the only thing keeping me alive. I owe Topher a slurpee, for I am pleasantly enamored with shmups and am currently blazing my lazers. I Smash, I Halo, I do everything a good little consumer whore should do. I have no top five games due to my schizophrenic nature, but 1st party nintendo games scratch my itch the most regularly. To get an idea, I played through oracle of seasons and ages to the point where I collected around 22 heart containers (which sucked because it stopped at 20). I am at the point in my life where I am expanding my tastes, which includes the aforementioned shmups, and fighters. Guilty gear is my new guilty pleasure, due to the fact that the guy I play with has a MONOCLE.

Thanks For the Help: Dtoiding my Residence Hall
A Humble Mr Perfect | 4:29 PM on 03.22.2008 6 comments


I am a Resident Adviser for a Residence Hall @ Northern Michigan. At the beginning of each semester, I am charged with many different projects to create a fun, livable community. These include: creating door decorations displaying each person's name, a duty board which lists which Ra is on call in the building that night, and a info board containing information about anything prevalent. Last semester, I made a Pac-Man theme which pleased me greatly, but I unfortunately lost the photos.

This semester, however, I decided to make a new theme. Sticking with what I knew, I created the Mario theme. I made power-up door decs and a pixelized duty board. However, I was stuck on my information board. I didn't know what to do. I was surfing around Dtoid, back when I was a lurker, when I found The Great Retro Quiz: Mario Edition by Chad Concelmo. It was perfect. I found that it transfered perfectly onto my info board. The answers I believe came from ElectroLemon, so props to you as well. I think that the theme came out rather well, considering I have large, meaty sausages where fingers should reside. Thanks Dtoid!

This is the board. I'm sorry in advance, it's been three months in a high traffic area. My pics are a little ugly because they've been beat up.





I used a folding sheet to hide the answers.

That terror alert chart made me LOL. I wish my RA in college was that cool. Good stuff.

Good stuff. I had that World according to America map hanging in my locker for a year in high school. Good times.

Damn RA's..make life a living hell.

Kidding..but I hate how all the RAs are practically brainwashed into saying "Residence Hall" instead of dorm.

Hahaha, nice work. Last year, my entire dorm was videogame-themed (the dorm’s name was Wien Hall, and the RAs called it “Wientendo”). My particular floor was Zelda-themed, so my door had my name and a picture of Link on it.

I don't really understand the concept of RA's. At uni in England we had an old bloke they called security and then 400 students.

Looks like you got a good job there dude. keep up the good work!
