Polygon Jim

<forumuser name="Polygon Jim" /> Polygon Jim, formally known as PeglegJimmy and GrandMasterJimmy, was a former member of the Sonic Retro community. While joining over a year prior, he became active in the community during the February 23, 2008 Proto Release, when drx released over a thousand assorted prototypes for a variety of Sega franchises and consoles.

History

On March 31 2008, while going through the Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut preview released during the 2008 Proto Release, Polygon Jim discovered the unused Sky Chase dragon.^[1] He would later experiment with ROM hacking the original Sonic the Hedgehog, resulting in Motobug the Badnik in Sonic the Hedgehog. These efforts granted him the status of Tech Member on the Sonic Retro forums. He also coined the phrase "assface Sonic," meant to describe the look of Sonic on the original North American box art of the early Sonic the Hedgehog titles.

On May 18 2013, Polygon Jim lost his life in a car accident. In his honor, Sonic Retro was temporarily renamed to "Motobug Retro," Polygon Jim's forum account memorialized with the "Eternal Tech Member" role. The same year, the Sonic the Hedgehog Hacking Contest renamed their "WTF?! Trophy" to the "Polygon Jim Trophy," which has remained its name in subsequent years. Polygon Jim was later paid tribute in the game Sonic Mania in the forum of Heavy Rider's Moto Bug vehicle. The badnik jumps into the air in a similar manner to how it functions in Motobug the Badnik in Sonic the Hedgehog. The Moto Bug is also named "Jimmy" in honor of the late community member.
