How not to jump on this bandwagon.
I'm back.
And I said that, well, last September, didn't I? OK, I'm back again for a short duration of time, more likely than not. And this time, I'm making a note here: MacMania 01:08, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Ah, new signature. Sir MacMania GUN— 04:12, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Anyway, good day to you. I'm MacMania. You may remember me from 2008 for my work on Portal (game), GLaDOS or Aperture Science. If so, I congratulate you on your memory, since most people have now come to assume that I have been here for two months. If not, this is perfectly fine, as I now point you to the body of work I have amassed since my return.

Comments: Fun rewrite to do. Shame about the lousy thank-you template.
Comments: Another rewrite, and not a bad one at that. Too bad I strayed from encyclopaedic tone. Nevertheless, in User:MrN9000's words: "Bang! 1 day. 12 votes. 400%. FA."
Comments: My first original featured concept. Nice thank-you template, too.
Comments: From VFD to FA. I love this show.
Comments: Someday to be re-released in Disney Digital 3-D.
Comments: I would say "I have died of dysentery", but I feel like explaining myself for the absence of an L in "Travelers" despite the fact that I use Correct English.
Comments: What a miserable article.
Comments: On the brink of VFH death (well, not really), it suddenly underwent an explosive regeneration and was eventually featured.
Comments: An epic drama of homicidal computers and incomprehensible visuals.

i.e. articles only Portal players will fully appreciate
Score: 0 of 4 featured
- GLaDOS (failed VFH due to lack of general appeal)

- and I'd rather not talk about Portal (film)
[edit] The science fiction suite
Score: 4 of 5 featured
- The Doctor (FEATURED! 5 days after Les Miz)

- UnBooks:The Macintosh User's Guide to the Galaxy But why not look at anything else instead?
[edit] July 2009

- James Watt (which I will convert into an UnScript as soon as I have the time, I promise)

To-do list
|
- Finish User:MacMania/Red Dwarf (alt) before I take a break
- And for User:MacMania/H2G2, completing the sci-fi rewrite trilogy of four if you count Firefly (The Doctor being separate from Doctor Who because of series vs character distinction).
- Ooh, I know! User:MacMania/Biscuitbarrel!
do something original. Yeah, right.
- Finish User:MacMania/Cartoon physics
