    that's not actually a secret.

    Yeah, his identity is all he posts.
    He is Bizarro Stormy.

    Man, that really makes me think: Groot would be really tough to understand on a forum.

    Well actually you see, Groot only sounds like he's saying Groot to others because members of his species larynx's harden into a particular shape, so Groot actually says quite complicated things through inflection, tone, etc. when he says I am Groot, however he is a highly intelligent being and in text I am sure he would actually be quite articulate and well spoken.

    Looking at that Wiki...I think we're going to need a more flattering picture of Mike & Jerry.

    I can add to this page, but I'm wondering whether a lot of information shouldn't be moved to separate page(s) under the Penny Arcade Inc main page, with information about the company on the main page. This would be in line with Mike and Jerry's own idea that Penny Arcade is bigger than just the comics/news and that a few projects would be going on just fine without their involvement (PAX and Child's Play).

    Tree would look something like this:

    -Penny Arcade Inc
    ---Projects
    ---Founders
    ---Employees of note
    ---Offices

    --Penny Arcade
    ---Comic
    ---PATV
    ---Other comics (trenches, etc)
    ---Kickstarter projects

    --PAX

    --Child's Play

    --Strip Search


    A few of the subheaders are absurdly detailed, the PA Presents is elaborate and could be trimmed down. A lot of the experiments are interesting (Greenhouse, Decideotron), but now it kinda looks like there's just a bunch of dead projects. Their successes and recent changes (moving away from PATV as a platform for 3rd party content such as Extra Credits, CheckPoint, saying good bye to Khoo) are far more interesting and would probably be more useful for people looking up Penny Arcade on Wiki.

    Any input? I'm very busy at the moment, but I keep up with everything but Acquisition Incorporated on Youtube, so I could definitely write something about all that sweet, sweet content. We need to do this with more people, because PA is just so huge and those jerks keep coming up with new stuff so just keeping up with whatever the crap they're doing is a challenge in and of itself.

    Sounds like you have precisely the right idea!

    Almost a week since this thread started, and the Wikipedia page has not yet been shut down for endless drawing of dicks and butts all over it.

    This forum really has changed!

    You don't have to draw them directly on the page itself, there's that overlay thing that lets you do that stuff but only other people with the thing can also see it. I remember it got posted here years ago and the whole forum was covered in dicks in a matter of minutes.

    Heh, first thing I did after learning about this thread was to look at the history and found this gem recently added by one of you silly geese:

    The webcomic has its own forum community, <s>lorded over</s> administrated by a <s>raving lunatic</s> nice young fellow that calls himself "Tube". There are various subforums covering subjects as diverse as videogames, writing, art, help and advice, and an off-topic general chat forum, all consisting of a series of Tubes

    That's what you get for asking for help.
    Fixed that for you.

    I updated a bunch of stuff on the wiki, most notably: i trimmed PA Presents and added a few big things to the opening paragraph. It's piss easy to edit an article, but it does soak up time (in particular to add the right citations).

    Im looking up info on the Eyrewood, not sure if it is notable enough for a seperate page or just a header on the main page. Who could I peer pressure into writing about Eyrewood? What part of the forums houses fans of the IP?

    I would personally say that right now Eyrewood would be under the main PA page. At some point it may be lengthy enough that someone will split it out
