History

Retarded beginnings at SSRG

Selbi originally joined the comunity early in 2007. But because of his bad english and thinking he is awesome at hacking (which wasn't the fact) he didn't get validated but banned. In June 2008 he joined the SSRG and started his hacking carrier there, but because of his bad english again he quickly became something new.

By releasing a hack called Sonic 1: Project 255 on August 2008 he got banned from SSRG. The hack was just something with stolen content from Sonic 1 Harder Levels Version and the very first Sonic Megamix. After this time was over he returned being way more active, but not more careful as he actually should be however. At this point, he started learning ASM and got better and better at it.

On Retro

Selbi tried amazing 9 times to get approved on the Sonic Retro validation forum, which is probably the current record. 8 times he failed because of bad english, bad validation post etc. But in June 2009, excactly 1 year in the scene, he finally made a good validation post and got approved.

Today

While Selbi can't draw or compose something, he is quite good at ASM. He likes helping people and creating tutorials (mostly tutorials for beginners). He is a member of many hacking teams, including Team ZX and Harder Project. One of his goals is to be a Tech Member in the future, even though he doesn't think he ever will be one. Mostly working on his hack, hoping it'll be something really special one day, he is also working on a Hacking utility called Sonic 1 - Text Code Generator, which does what the name says. Recently he is doing lots of Wiki edits, mostly redirecting pages.
