Trouted

[edit]

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

You have been trouted for: asking someone to test the "trout this user" feature on Discord. :D Happy editing, Complex/Rational 13:17, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

[edit]
The Original Barnstar
For the hard work put in to the List of national flags of sovereign states, an article that perhaps should have existed earlier but clearly took a lot of work to define the scope of and comprehensively research to achieve a wonderful result. MSG17 (talk) 16:04, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
thank you! ―Howard • 🌽33 21:04, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cover art for the 2018 video game Celeste

Celeste is a 2018 platform game developed and published by indie studio Maddy Makes Games. The player controls Madeline, a young woman with anxiety and depression who aims to climb Celeste Mountain. During her climb, she encounters several characters, including Part of You, a personification of her self-doubt who attempts to stop her from climbing the mountain. Development of Celeste began in August 2015, when game developers Maddy Thorson and Noel Berry participated in a game jam, where they created Celeste for the PICO-8. Celeste released as a full game on January 25, 2018, for Linux, macOS, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Windows, before being released on Xbox One the following day, and on Google Stadia in July 2020.
