==Features and Overview==
Born: Sunday, July 16, 1989
 
  +
Gerudo Highlands surrounds the [[Gerudo Desert]]. Its cliffs sit to the east of the Desert and its tall, snowy mountains overlook the Desert to the north. [[Link]] needs protection from the [[Temperature|cold]] to navigate the northern and southeastern Highlands unharmed. Gerudo Highlands is the location where the ancient [[Sheikah]] technology was first uncovered.<ref>{{Cite|We decided to heed the prophecy and began excavating large areas of land. It wasn't long before we discovered several ancient relics made by the hands of our distant ancestors.|King Rhoam|BotW}}</ref> Nine Stone Taluses can be found throughout the Gerudo Highlands.

The Gerudo Tower is a [[Sheikah Tower]] situated just north of the Gerudo Desert. It is the tallest Tower in [[Hyrule]], but is situated within a deep valley surrounded by cliffs. To reach the top, Link can go to the top of Birida Lookout and [[Paraglider|glide]] to the Tower, where he will be able to reach the climbing platforms attached to the upper section of it. Once the Tower is activated, Link will gain a map of the surrounding northern, snowy mountainous section of Gerudo Highlands. [[Kass]] can be found playing his accordion at the top of the Tower.

  +
{{Main|Wasteland Tower}}
  +
The Wasteland Tower is a [[Sheikah Tower]] that sits in a brown, swampy pool on the northernmost peak of Spectacle Rock. To begin climbing the Tower, Link must avoid sinking in the swamp surrounding it by finding a way across. He can do so by gliding from above or using [[Cryonis]]. Activating the Tower will update Link's [[Sheikah Slate]] with a map of the surrounding area, including the eastern section of Gerudo Highlands and the entirety of Gerudo Desert.

There is also a large, downward slope that allows Link to travel north quickly by [[Shield Surfing]]. A [[Stone Talus]] can be found in the western portion of the Snowfield.
   
  +

==Bio==
 
My name is Matthew "Matt" James Rieckman (''pronounced like REEK-MAN''). I'm also known as mjr162006 (I sometimes capitalize the m). I took it from my e-mail address. I created my current e-mail account in 2006. The meaning of the letters and numbers are: "m" for Matt — my first name, "j" for James — my middle name, "r" for Rieckman — my last name, "16" my age when I created my e-mail account, and "2006" the year I created my e-mail account. Put it together and you have "mjr162006."

===Gerudo Summit===
I live in the state of South Dakota of the United States. It's next to Minnesota and south of North Dakota ^_^. If you see me editing at around 8:00AM UTC (3:00AM here), then I woke up involuntarily - damn birds - and am unable to resume sleep. Graduated from high school in May of 2008, actually the day after I wrote this paragraph, and was accepted to a public university for a degree in mathematics. My classes were over May 13,but I have had a lot of free time during school for the last month. The graduation ceremony was on May 18.
 
  +
{{Main|Gerudo Summit}}
  +
The Gerudo Summit is a mountain in the northwestern portion of Gerudo Highlands. The peak of the mountain features a snowy plain that contains a [[Lynel]]. On top of the Summit, there is a large stone sword that is a missing piece of the Statue of the Eighth Heroine. Link must locate and take a picture of it as part of "[[The Forgotten Sword]]" Side Quest given by Bozai after completing "The Eighth Heroine" Side Quest.
   
  +
===Laparoh Mesa===
My school was a K12 school. That means that it is a elementary, middle, and high school all in one building. Only the middle school has a science fair. I took first place two years in a row. In 9th grade, I won first place at the state level in land judging. I then went on to nationals and placed 33rd, out of about three or four thousand. I won first place in Aquaculture - fish related - in 11th grade. That was the result of a three-year project. In twelfth grade, I received a State FFA degree. That is the highest award a FFA member can receive at the state level. I went to National Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana in October of 2007. There were over 50,000 members there.
 
  +
{{Main|Laparoh Mesa}}
  +
Laparoh Mesa is a mountain in the northern portion of Gerudo Highlands. The mountain is made up of multiple small rock outcroppings and provides a view of the entirety of Hyrule. A Lynel can also be found at the highest point of the mesa. The [[Dragon]] [[Farosh]] can be seen flying above the mesa at certain times. At the foot of Laparoh Mesa lies the [[Kuh Takkar Shrine]].
   
  +
===Cliffs of Ruvara===
I am very good at mathematics. When I say I didn't learn anything in math class, it is the truth. In my senior year, and through most of high school, I did not learn anything in Calculus class that I had not already took upon myself to learn beforehand. As a consequence of this, I was the "second teacher" of the class. Our calc class was a distance learning class. That means that we go to a special room and a class from another school connects with us through microphones, cameras, and displays. Our teacher was the only one in our school to teach a distance learning class.
 
  +
{{Main|Cliffs of Ruvara}}
  +
The Cliffs of Reuvara are rocky cliffs that exist along the northern portion of Gerudo Highlands. There is evidence of settlement and multiple climbing platforms used by excavators. There is also a large, geothermal vent that Link can use to glide up the cliffs.
   
  +
===Mystathi's Shelf===
I came to ZeldaWiki.org in the middle of the month of April in 2008. I didn't edit much at first. I wasn't really sure how much of anything worked. But, thankfully, users like [[User: Adamcox82|Adam]] and [[User: Ando|Ando]] were there to guide me. In a few week's time I rapidly became one of the most active members on ZeldaWiki.org.
 
  +
{{Main|Mystathi's Shelf}}
  +
Mystathi's Shelf is the northernmost mesa in Gerudo Highlands. It is a rocky, flat area covered in snow.
   
  +
===Hemaar's Descent===
One of my first goals was to make grammatical corrections. Starting out, I intentionally mis-spelled the word grammar as ''grammer''. Ando claims that he noticed right away, and he most likely did. It took a few days before Adam came up and said something. Now the use of "grammer" is sort of a running joke of mine.
 
  +
{{Main|Hemaar's Descent}}
  +
Hemaar's Descent is a valley in the most northwest portion of Gerudo Highlands. It has very little snowfall and is the grassiest area within the Highlands. It is also a pathway that leads to the Statue of the Eighth Heroine.
   
  +
===Birida Lookout===
One day I decided that there need to be more boss favorite userboxes. So I started making them. Since some boss pictures didn't look good in some colors, I made each of the boss favorite userboxes a different color. A few though, I intention left out one character for the color hex code so that the color matched the background.
 
  +
{{Main|Birida Lookout}}
  +
Birida Lookout is the area directly east of Gerudo Tower and is mostly made up of dilapidated settlements inhabited by monsters. This is also the settlement that is used to gain enough height in order to fly to Gerudo Tower. It overlooks the [[Great Cliffs]]. South of the Lookout is the [[Sasa Kai Shrine]].
   
  +
===Sapphia's Table===
I absolutely despise lying. If I see a problem with how someone is acting, ''' I will not sugar-coat it!''' I will not lie to spare someone's feelings. That would only harm him/her more in the long run. I am well-known for being brutally honest. This is my nature. Nothing will ever change that. If anyone is ever offended by this, just remember that offense is never intended.
 
  +
{{Main|Sapphia's Table}}
  +
Sapphia's Table is a snowy mesa east of Gerudo Tower. It contains multiple levels of heights and provides a good view of Gerudo Desert.
   
  +
===Taafei Hill===
<!--I made this symbol: ^_^ I think others have used it. It isn't that complex. I use it to indicate the feeling of trying to suppress laughter.-->
 
  +
{{Main|Taafei Hill}}
===Real-World Travel===
 
  +
Taafei Hill is a small, rocky area in the northern portion of Gerudo Highlands. It contains very little life and no snow. It overlooks the Gerudo Canyon, with the Gerudo Canyon Stable just south of it. A Stone Talus can be found on south Taafei Hill.

===Nephra Hill===
I hate the direction that Nintendo is going with controls. They are even worse for your health than normal control pads. They are more prone to wear-and-tear than other platforms' controls. The only thing that will make me want to buy a Wii is the release of a new Zelda game.
 
  +
{{Main|Nephra Hill}}
  +
Nephra Hill is the most northeastern part of Gerudo Highlands. It is a cliffy region overlooking the Gerudo Canyon and Koukot Plateau. There are multiple circles of gray rocks that appear on top of the hill.

  +
{{Main|Mount Nabooru}}
==Friends==
 
  +
Mount Nabooru is a cliffy region overlooking the Gerudo Canyon Pass. It contains a Luminous Stone Talus. Also found here are the [[Goron Blood Brothers]], a triad of [[Goron]]s who challenge Link to several tests of endurance as part of the "[[Test of Will]]" Shrine Quest. Completing the Quest reveals the [[Joloo Nah Shrine]]. Mount Nabooru's name references the [[Gerudo]] [[Nabooru]] from {{OoT}}.

  +
{{Main|Mount Granajh}}
  +
Mount Granajh is a snowy mountain in southeast Gerudo Highlands. Link will need protection from the cold here. A Korok can be found at the very peak of the mountain. There is a small, ruined shack on the mountain where Link can read someone's journal, titled the [[Mountain Peak Log]]. It describes someone's attempts at discovering a Shrine nearby. Reading it will give Link the "[[Secret of the Snowy Peaks]]" Shrine Quest. After completing the Shrine Quest, the [[Suma Sahma Shrine]] will reveal itself on the mountain.

Here Link can talk to [[Pirou]] to begin the "[[Rushroom Rush!]]" Side Quest and can speak to [[Sesami]] to begin the "[[Missing in Action]]" Side Quest.

{{Main|Yiga Clan Hideout}}
==Table of Completions and Attempts==
 
  +
The Yiga Clan Hideout is the secret base of the [[Yiga]] Clan. Link must infiltrate this place and defeat [[Master Kohga]] to retrieve [[Riju]]'s stolen [[Thunder Helm]] in the "[[Divine Beast Vah Noboris (Quest)|Divine Beast Vah Naboris]]" [[Main Quest]]. It is coated with Yiga Clan [[Blademaster]]s that Link must sneak past.

This table was ripped from [[User:Seablue254|David]]'s userpage who ripped it from [[User:Douken|Douken]]'s user page who ripped it from<br>[[User:Ando|Ando]]'s user page who ripped it from an unknown person.

<br><br>'''Guidelines''':<br>
 
"Times Beaten" means number of times the game's main storyline was completed in its entirety(not including side-quests), not how many times the final boss was defeated. "Times Started" is the number of times that a new game was started. "Greatest Completion" is the farthest point reached in a game. That includes side-quests and extras. This all means that the times beaten should never exceed times started.
 
<br>'''Usage''':<br>
 
Since I'm one of the early users of this table, I'm keeping who I got it from. To prevent this chain from getting too long, I'll let anyone copy this table to his/her userpage, with no requirement to state that he/she obtained it from my page (although it would be appreciated). That is provided that he/she adheres to the above guidelines and that it is used in a professional manner.

Here is a quote that would cause Link to feel rather afraid.
 
 
:{{quote|'''Unless you cheat or use some dirty tricks, you have no chance. <br>And if you do cheat...you will pay dearly.'''|One of the [[Goron]]s before beating [[Gor Coron]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''}}

==Memorable Non-Zelda Quotes==
 
 
These are some of the funniest/dumbest things I've heard people say where I live. No these aren't typos. This is actually what they said. To protect their identities, all people will remain anonymous. If only I could remember the things they said in past years.<br><br>
 
----
 
<font size=4 color="#FE6060"><b>Warning</b></font>: Some quotes contain language that may be offensive to some people. The worst one, known by some as the "f-word", is censored with asterisks.
 
----
 
<br><br>
 
 
Here is the funniest thing I've said here to date, without intending to be funny.
 
 
{{quote|I think that using material from talented artists is preferable to just sitting on our butts and leaving crap...|Me}}
 
 
If you don't get it. Then just ask yourself: "Where does crap come from?"
 
----
 
 
{{quote|Oh my god! Why am I so stupid? I wanna be smart!|Girl A}}
 
 
{{quote|Wednesday is the best day of the day!|Girl B}}

{{quote|I hate trying to think!|Girl D}}

{{quote|Everyone who isn't here raise your hand.|Boy A}}
 
 
{{quote|Nope! We're all here! Let's go!|Boy B}}

{{quote|If I don't pass this test, I am seriously fu***d! [turns around to find the teacher standing right behind him] Oh... um... I didn't know you were here!|Boy B (I've never seen a face so red before. The teacher just smiled and shook his head.)}}
 
 
{{quote|[runs into the door] Ow... My boob!|Girl C, again. she forgot to turn the handle}}
 
<!--Yes, she really said that.-->
 
 
Here's a rather funny incident. This is probably the cleverest trick I have ever seen someone pull off.
 
----
 
{{quote|I'm going to put this tape over the camera. No one say anything!|Boy B}}
 
:The teacher and the rest of the class walk in. It takes a few minutes for anyone to notice anything.
 
{{quote|Hey. What's wrong with the screen? There's a blurry spot.|Boy C}}
 
{{quote|What?|The Teacher}}
 
:He goes up to the camera. He discovers the tape.
 
{{quote|There's tape here! Who put this on here? [Boy A's name] ! It was you wasn't it?|The Teacher}}
 
{{quote|No! It wasn't!|Boy A}}
 
{{quote|Yes it was. Just for that, you've got to turn in the assignment tomorrow. Everyone else turns it in at the regular time. Now come here and peel off this tape!|The Teacher}}
 
{{quote|What the hell!|Boy A}}
 
{{quote|[quietly] Heh, heh, heh, heehh!|Boy B}}
 
----
 
:Calculus class. Mega-sized assignments. There were three more work days left. Took him ten minutes to get the tape off. And Boy A never found out that the tape was placed there by Boy B. The rest us had no reason to inform either the teacher or Boy A of the details. We still are not sure if Boy B planned the whole thing or was just lucky. But it is likely that he did in fact plan it since it's usually Boy A doing all the stupid things. (Yes the test Boy B mentioned above was a calc test.)
 
<!--After talking to him, I think he was just messing around. He got lucky.-->

==<b><big>Firefox Hints</big></b>==
 
Here I will collect any knowledge I have obtained on Mozilla Firefox. To suggest a hint, just say so on my talk page. I'm using Windows XP. I confident that these hints will work with any version of Windows. However, Windows Vista has features that sometimes override features in Mozilla Firefox. If you find such a problem, make sure to tell me! I'll try to find a solution.
 
 
===Get Firefox===
 
What? You don't have Firefox? Why not? It is easy to install! Just go [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ here]. Download Firefox and install. Firefox has many strong points:
 
*Easily customizable
 
*More stable than Internet Explorer
 
*Hate when you are trying to go to a site, but you keep getting redirected to some search engine site instead? Well there is a lot less of that in Firefox.
 
*Used tabs in Internet Explorer? Ever closed one by accident? Firefox has a feature to undo closed tabs.
 
*Have bad spelling? Firefox has a built-in spell-check feature.
 
*Has your web browser ever crashed, computer locked up, or your power go out, and you lost what you were doing on the internet? Firefox automatically restores lost sessions. You will hardly lose a thing.
 
*Tired of websites downloading programs to your computer without your permission? Firefox will not allow a Web site to download, install, or run programs on your computer without your explicit agreement.
 
 
===Spell Check===
 
*You can spell check summaries as well as the normal body of text when editing. Just right click the summary box, then check ''Spell check this field''.
 
*If you are not in the US, make sure to add the US English dictionary. There are a few ways to do that. The fastest way is to add this [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3497 add-on], then right-click an edit field. Then go to Languages and choose English/United States.
 
*To have "Spell check this field." checked for every field permanently, open a new tab. Type this in the address bar: ''about:config''. Find the setting titled ''layout.spellcheckDefault''. Change the value to 2. Firefox will now spell check everything you type on the internet.
 
 
===Reload Page===
 
*You can have a page reload automatically. Just right-click anywhere on the page - other than a text box, link, or image - and choose Reload <u>E</u>very. Then choose enable and select the time increment. The page will then automatically reload.
 
*This is very useful for watching recent changes.
 
 
===Taming Firefox's hunger for RAM===
 
*Don't listen to anyone who tries to tell you to change a setting in ''about:config'' to take the edge off Firefox's legendary appetite for RAM. Not a single fix will do anything at all. The only way is to get a memory manager and force Firefox to obey.
 
 
===New Tab Trick===
 
*If you use a mouse with a scroll wheel and click on the wheel while the mouse pointer is over a link, it will automatically open the link in a new tab.
 
 
===Add-ons===
 
Here are some add-ons that I found to be useful:
 
*'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3497 US English Dictionary]''' This add the dictionary for United States English. If you live in the US you should already have it. If you live elsewhere, make sure to add it!
 
*'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1242 Tabs Menu]''' Adds a drop-down list of currently open tabs to the main menu.
 
*'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4735 Install Button]''' Adds an install button to the add-on manager. This allows installing add-ons from a file. Useful if you download add-ons on another browser or if someone sends one or something.
 
*'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/682 History Submenus]''' Places each day's browsing history in a submenu in the history menu.
 
*'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2549 Add-ons Sidebar]''' Shows the add-on manager in a sidebar.
 
*'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/207 OpenDownload]''' Allows you to open any file from the internet into the your computer's assigned program for the given file type.
 
*'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/57 Titlebar Tweaks]''' Allows you to change what the titlebar says. Useful if you don't want to say the browser name.
 
*'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122 Tab Mix Plus]''' Provides an easy way to tweak a bunch of settings related to tabs.
 
 
===Miscellaneous Tweaks===
 
Here are some miscellaneous tweaks that you can do. Just type in ''about:config'' in the address bar and find a preference to change.
 
:{| border=1
 
| '''Setting''' || '''Default Value''' || '''Modified Value''' || '''Effect'''
 
|-
 
| layout.spellcheckDefault
 
| 1
 
| 2
 
| Permanently enables "Spell check this field" for all fields
 
|-
 
| browser.urlbar.hideGoButton
 
| False
 
| True
 
| Hides the go button next to the address bar
 
|-
 
| browser.cache.memory.capacity
 
| 4096
 
| 4096
 
| '''DON'T MESS WITH THIS''' Lowering it will reduce Firefox's<br>response time, not it's RAM consumption. This one is not<br>there by default. Don't create it.
 
|-
 
| browser.cache.disk.capacity
 
| 50000
 
| 50000
 
| '''DON'T MESS WITH THIS''' Lowering it will reduce Firefox's<br>response time, not it's RAM consumption.
 
|-
 
| dom.popup_maximum
 
| 20
 
| 5
 
| Limits how many pop-up windows that can be open<br>at one time.
 
|}
 
 
===Mouse Wheel===
 
There are four actions that can be assigned to the mouse wheel. A different action could be used by holding a certain key while moving the mouse wheel. By default, all these actions are the same. There are four preferences in ''about:config'' that apply to this
 
:{| border=1
 
| '''Preference''' || '''Applies to...'''
 
|-
 
| mousewheel.withaltkey.action
 
| How mouse wheel works when ALT key is pressed
 
|-
 
| mousewheel.withcontrolkey.action
 
| How mouse wheel works when CTRL key is pressed
 
|-
 
| mousewheel.withnokey.action
 
| How mouse wheel works when no key is pressed
 
|-
 
| mousewheel.withshiftkey.action
 
| How mouse wheel works when SHIFT key is pressed
 
|}
 
 
The default settings to all of those is "0". Here are the four possible settings:
 
 
:{| border=1
 
| '''Setting''' || '''Action'''
 
|-
 
| 0
 
| Scroll document by X lines
 
|-
 
| 1
 
| Scroll document by one page
 
|-
 
| 2
 
| Move back/forward in history
 
|-
 
| 3
 
| Makes text larger/smaller
 
|}
 
 
===Searching ZeldeWiki from Firefox===
 
Go [[ZW.org Search Plugin|here]] and follow the instructions. Then the option of "Zelda Wiki" will be available for Firefox's integrated search bar at the top of the browser. Search away!
 
 
===Keep Internet Explorer===
 
Internet Explorer, we all hate it. However, after getting Firefox, '''KEEP INTERNET EXPLORER'''! Firefox, on very rare occasions, will become corrupted after saving a session and exiting. It will then become impossible to open up Firefox again. There is no way to fix this. It is an error in the programing. You have to uninstall Firefox to get rid of the problem. Then, if you don't have the install file on your hard drive, you have to go back to Internet Explorer to reinstall Firefox. All your add-ons, settings tweaks, cookies, favorites, and even your last session will still be there.

==Second Favorite Dialog==
 
{{Spoiler}}
 
::''This is the dialog at the end of the Ghost Ship level in Phantom Hourglass. I might add the rest later.''
 
 
Ocean King:
 
 
"The sea's islands are rich
 
with life force.
 
The Ghost Ship was made
 
to drain that life force.
 
They used a story of
 
treasure to lure people in.
 
It wasn't enough for Bellum
 
to steal MY life force.
 
He had to take what little
 
he could from the people.
 
Tetra must have had a
 
bold, vibrant soul.
 
The Ghost Ship was drawn
 
to that power.
 
She didn't find it...
 
It found her."
 
 
Linebeck:
 
 
"Wait... so you're saying
 
there's NO TREASURE?!"
 
 
Ocean King:
 
 
"Yes, that's what I'm saying.
 
From what I can sense,
 
Tetra is still alive.
 
There is an island north of
 
the Isle of Gust.
 
Go there and find Zauz.
 
He is a blacksmith.
 
He will tell you more
 
about the great evil.
 
He knows how to slay
 
Bellum."
 
 
Linebeck:
 
 
"This is some kind of sick
 
joke, old man!
 
The treasure! What about
 
all the TREASURE!
 
That was the only reason I
 
put my life on the line!
 
And now there's no
 
treasure? Well, I... QUIT!"
 
 
Cielia:
 
 
"You quit? Didn't you even
 
listen to his story?
 
You're a man of the sea...
 
Don't you want to help
 
the Ocean King?!"
 
 
Linebeck:
 
 
"NO!
 
And you can't use my
 
ship anymore! Heh... heh..."
 
 
Ocean King:
 
 
"No, no. I would never ask
 
you to do this for free.
 
If you help us defeat
 
Bellum...
 
I will grant you one wish.
 
What do you say to that?"
 
 
[Dramatic music plays. Linebeck strikes a triumphant pose.]
 
 
Linebeck:
 
 
"HEY! Quit standing around,
 
kid!
 
The Ocean King is in
 
trouble!
 
Ship out, kid!
 
Anchors aweigh! I said,
 
MOVE IT!"
