A bit about myself
I'm Michael Grinshpon (hence the name, mgrinshpon). I'm 16, and live in New Jersey. I am a member (by choice, I don't like being an officer, gotten like, 50 million promotion offers), web designer, and webmaster in the Winged Gods (WING), members of some alliance. I used to be in a Heroes Ascent guild called I Swear She Was Eighteen [GWEN] while I took a little break from WING, but I'm back.

Before Guildwars consumed my life, Earth and Beyond did. I had a level 130 Progen Warrior named... Grinch Warrior! My other alts were all below level 100, sadly. Regardless, It was a great game and I miss all my buddies in my old guild there, Order of Chivalry. If EA hadn't shut down the game, I would still be paying for it, and loving every minute of it. I loved Earth and Beyond, and will forever hate EA shutting down on September 22nd, 2004. RIP EnB.

Other Games I play
Besides Guildwars, I play all sorts of things. Space Empires, X2: The Threat and X3: The Reunion, Garry's Mod, Oblivion, you name it! Variety is the spice of life, or so they say. My collection of games can be found here at Gamespot.

GuildWiki
I joined Guildwiki a long time ago, in May 06, which isn't that long ago.

Past, present and future projects

 * 1) Obtaining a better mastery of wikicode
 * 2) Make an awesome build that will be favored
 * 3) Getting a set of colors to be decided upon

My Personal Builds and Guides

 * 1) The Sandbox: What ideas does Grinch have flowing through his mind? Who knows!
 * 2) My heroes' skills are located here and have been proven to work (by me).

Guides and Builds started

 * 1) The Spirit Bonder Guide for Spirit Bonding.
 * 2) N/P Ordergon, bring orders to the next level. It was voted unfavored for redunduncy (sp?), unfortunatly.
 * 3) The Mo/Me Revitalizer makes use of Revitalize (Healer's Boon is a stupid name) to revitalize party members.

Persuasive Guides

 * 1) Why touches should stay skills: alot of people have said that, "Touches should be spells" for the nerfing of the all too common touch ranger, but I disagree, and here's why.

Guildwars Improvements

 * Some sort of auction-house (WoW style, I suppose): Stop the spam everywhere! Good god there's alot of it!
 * More storage for things: There's too many weapon upgrades and green items to keep track of.
 * Weapon Upgrades Trader: It's tough to find a market for those 18-19% things. Also, keep the organization like Priests of Balthazar.
 * Rune Trader Organization: Rune Traders could learn a thing or two from the Priests of Balthazar.
 * Chatlog: While this thing would have to be compressed beyond belief to conserve space, it would be quite nice to use this instead of Trillian to talk to everyone.

Humor

 * Banhammer.

Notes to Self

 * Remember the links for the skill lists (Skill List (Campaign).
 * Do stuff in the Sandbox and not in random pages.
 * Finish up guild builds for my guild.
 * Work on my guild's tactics page.
 * Refer to the list of totally cool userpages for totally nifty wikicode ideas and such, like, totally!
 * Work on Games templates for as many MMOs as I can find.
