Hi, I'm abcboy. You can find me on the Blockheads forums, and quite a few other places as well. I'm also here, so you can also just contact me here.
This obviously isn't the place to tell my life story, so I'll be instead telling my blockheads' life story.
It was the midst of January. I was surfing the App Store for some new apps. And of course, the Blockheads was up at top that day. Soon after, I joined the Blockheads forums. What followed was one of the greatest experiences with a game I've ever had. Most apps on my iPad are played constantly for about two months, and then they just stop being played. But this one, this one, has been played on and off for over nine months.
In the beginning, I never used tools. Why? They end up breaking. Why make something that ends up breaking if you have an infinitely durable multipurpose tool? Eventually, I realized that pickaxes wouldn't end up being a waste of stone. (esp. since pickaxes mine stone, which leads to more pickaxes)
So...yeah. That's pretty much it. I'm also an admin here, in the case that...matters for some reason.
If you see my username a lot on the recent changes, then I'm probably using AWB.

Nuggets of wisdom
- Treat all new updates as you would if writing about a past update. Don't say, "In the new update, the new benches were added." Say "In version 1.6, the refinery and electric sluice were added."
- TLDR:
new
Testing code
I'm confused...

Maybe this wiki doesn't even need these! I really don't know.
