In 2023, answers about the fic and its ARG have come forward in an unexpected way: following [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOD6A_E0xjY a popular YouTube investigation by "Hey Peter"]] revisiting the project and bringing it back into the limelight, the fic's original creator came forward in the comments with proof of their identity and several revelations, namely that the ARG was never intended to be "solved". The creator made the Creepypasta and its hack for fun and was surprised that they took off, with [[WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants everything coming afterwards being made up as it went along with no end goal in mind]] based off tropes that his 14-year-old self was a fan of until he got bored. While the answers the ARG raised will never be adequately resolved, the whole project can definitively be called "complete".

MARIO, appropriately made by a man named M A R I O (yes, with the spaces) is a ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'' hack detailing an unknown point in Mario's life. Some theorize it is Mario turning evil, while some think it is his suicide. It was posted on the [[http://www.smwcentral.net/?p=viewthread&t=42510 SMW Central]] forums by the user Adam, detailing his experiences with the hack in {{Creepypasta}} fashion. But unlike most Creepypastas, [[http://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=6416 the hack actually exists]].
