Missingno
So, I was bored and attempted to edit my Splash.txt file, and replaced the current Splashes with some of my own, and when I started MineCraft, I got an "ERROR" when trying to log on [but not an internet error], and the MISSINGNO splash was used, which I did not put in splash.txt. Reloaded again, still Missingno. So, I'm guessing that if the Splash.txt is modified, MISSINGNO is displayed?

Anyone else want to test this too? --DwarfWoot 20:04, 23 January 2011 (UTC)


 * That's been there for quite some time actually. I was going to add it yesterday but didn't have time. Today someone put it under "Removed" but it is in fact not removed so I just added it under "Special" splashes. Ordona 21:44, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

New Splash
So there was a new Splash, "Play Minecraft, Watch Topgear, Get Pig", added with the most recent version 1.2.3_02. There is actually a background to this; it was auctioned off on Desert Bus for Hope by Notch himself. I'm curious if a special note should be made of this. --Spolin 10:54, 25 November 2010 (CST)

Consummate V's
This phrase comes from Homestar Runner, so I was bold, went ahead and added a link. --Homfrog 13:51, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Table instead of a list?
I think the splashes need to be placed into a table with columns for details and explanations. Quite many of these splashes are non-self-explanatory running gags or insider stuff, so it could be required to understand their meaning. I'm not quite sure if it's enough to simply create links for the lines... --Barracuda 16:02, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree. On a related note, what does "SWM forever!" refer to? Urbandictionary gave me Single White Man.--EnderA 04:34, 16 January 2011 (UTC)


 * This would greatly help the page, yes. I've transformed the list into a table now, feel free to add references you might spot. Those empty cells look sad. And Single White Male would be correct, though this could be one of the tougher ones to explain.
