"Gonk. Gonk. Gonk ko kyenga see."

- the Gonkian phrase that cannot legally be translated as per Baobab Security Directive 51-C

Gonk is a Wookieepedian who has, in one form or another, been Wookieepediaing since early January 2007. Gonk also fully acknowledges that "Wookieepediaing" is in all likelihood not a word, but knowing the Internet, it may become one. Gonk moves slowly on account of his stubby, poorly articulated legs.

As you will quickly learn if you interact with Gonk on Wookieepedia IRC, there isn't much in this (or any) crazy universe that Gonk takes terribly seriously, but Wookieepedia's accuracy and quality is an exception.

Note: Gonk is not the same person as the Wikipedian whose username is also Gonk.

Reasons to Be Stoked About Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor

 * Expanding a throwaway line into a novel is a fabulous idea
 * Awesomely old-school title
 * Matt Stover is writing it
 * Luke doing kick-ass Jedi stuff on the battlefield
 * Luke getting all conflicted about having done kick-ass Jedi stuff on the battlefield

My Next Chassis
I figure it better fits my status as a deity and all.

Star Wars Collection
So large it would be annoyingly space- and time-consuming to list it all. Let's just say I have every West End Games RPG book (except the solo adventures), most of the Wizards of the Coast books, over half the novels, and a fair smattering of the comics. How much of that I've actually read is another matter. I also own several of the games, but am loath to buy very many more; I barely have time for my favorites now.

Current Star Wars Not-So-Favorites

 * Legacy. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the SuperShadowization of Star Wars canon.
 * WEG-Bashing. Try it before you knock it.
 * WOTC Dragging Its Feet. And no, I'm not bashing here! They put out a good product. But I'm not into minis and am therefore deprived of SWRPG stuff to spend money on. C'mon, WOTC! I'm gonna be out of debt soon if you're not careful.
 * People Who Add Fanon to Wookieepedia Pages. I can forgive most Wookieetransgressions&mdash;everyone's new once, and I've made a few myself&mdash;but the mere presence of the suffix "pedia" ought to tell you something.
 * People Who Become Emotionally Attached to "Their" Wookieepedia Articles. This is a communal effort. Don't like it? Start your own all-encompassing repository. And good luck with that.
 * No Lightsaber/Wii Game Announced Yet. Not that I want a reason to buy a Wii anytime soon. But come on. This would be the one SW game with the potential to unseat TIE Fighter in immersive, shivering-with-unbridled-power gaming coolness.

Stuff to Which I Contributed Significantly

 * Luskin Exovar
 * Exovar's Emporium
 * Carosi XII
