Howdy! I'm Matt, and I like to fix up writing and omit needless words on this great Wiki. I've found that If needless words that are very unnecessary are removed from the sentence a whole lot, much is added to the meaning that the writer was trying to achieve , and in turn strengthening the Wiki as a whole. I suppose "as a whole" could have been hosed as well, but there is a difference between conciseness and stripping the language down to where it is barely functional. William Strunk wrote,

"A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make all his sentences short, or that he avoid all detail and treat his subjects only in outline, but that every word tell. (Strunk and White 1972. The Elements of Style, p. 23)"

I love writing. It's what I do.

I played the first Golden Sun a year or two after it came out, and loved it. I've probably finished both games five times each, and sometimes I break out the ol GBA and play it again. Great stuff, that is.

And... I am a Mudshipper, and I was floored when I saw the Isaac/Jenna->Matthew thing. An icy shiv in my back. Why, Camelot? Why?
