Probably not a welcome back as much as it is a, “wow, Look at the place, still kicking”.  Lol.  Cool. 

This place is still kicking.  Memories.  Shout out to Granobulax’s daughter. Legacy. 

Ban em all.

Boo, I want my money back, who helped come up with that crap!!?!?

Landon's RP's have always been my favorite.  Very fun, well thought out.  Most of mine were perverted versions of his.

No.

I've always thought of myself as Landon & Co.

Here ya go. It's just a brief weird summary. Don't expect Homer's Odyssey.

http://www.electricferret.com/forum/index.php/topic/32401-khazan-apocalypse-and-final-farewells/?p=442106

The goal was to get the monster to Khazan and create a major disaster. They figured the monster would eventually be killed and his death would fuel the sacrifice that would release Sayang. But the monster was killed in the mountains by the Sentinels, releasing Sayang there. Percy wanted the action to go down in Khazan, but his liege has been released so he is good with that.

After Knox escapes with F.O.E he explains to them that they were beat by a more experienced team. He offers to be their mentor and swears they will get revenge against Dayshift.

After that, I would've created the Rasa Sayang character finally.

Of Gods, Monsters and Men… the never written ending!

So, where we last left off the CoS were fighting F.O.E.  F.O.E. takes a loss and we find out why the CoS were headed towards the mountain in the first place.  The CoS enter the Bases of the mountain where the mystics are.  The mystics are deep in concentration trying to bring forth O’Defensor and teleport him to his rightful home in New Eden (The Fallen Headquarters).  The Fallen want that behemoth on their team of course.  While distracted, the Whisper Man gets in their numbskulls and changes their original intentions.  Now they aren’t sending O’Defensor to New Eden.  Now they are sending him straight to Khazan with a raging overkill switch turned on.  Meanwhile, F.O.E. who is down and out call for backup from Knox who is enroute to extract them from the place.  Knox freaks that the mission is compromised so late into the game.  He hightails it to the location. 

Meanwhile, Dayshift is fighting Dr. Odierno’s menagerie of monsters that have been released from the Spire.  They are winning and are eventually joined by Z-girl and the other members that were previously beaten by F.O.E.  As a team they beat down the monsters and make way to the flying fortress.  Inside the Spire, a slight coup is taking place.  Turns out Ouroboros is trying to take out Marshell.  They’ve already infiltrated and taken out the Spire itself which is slowly descending to the Earth below.  Now they are taking it to Percy.

http://www.electricferret.com/forum/index.php/topic/31432-match-8521-ouroboros-vs-marshell-percy-the-master-psychic-psycho/

Dayshift enters the ship to find that there is an internal struggle going on.  They don’t know who to attack, but before they can sort it out, they are met by Legion.  Who comes pouring through a passage way forcing them back outside again.  They fight Legion shortly until the Alpha Sentinel, Spectrum shows up and helps them put the kibosh on the beast.  Next, Miss March and Sage arrive.  Sage senses the massive amounts of magical chaos and heads straight for the mountain.  Miss March rushes in to find the team that beat Dayshift and arrest them with Spectrum in tow.  Before they can reach their targets, the mountain explodes open and O’Defensor appears in full fury (the chaotic Fallen magic taking its toll).  He lashes out at everyone.  At the same time and under the control of Whisper Man the mystics continue to try to teleport him to Khazan.  The Sentinels attack the monster.  It releases a small battalion of Incendia O’s which attack relentlessly. 

While that is going on, Knox arrives at the extraction point and declares the mission a failure and blames Sayang.  He immediately picks up F.O.E. and hits the road.  Dayshift continue to traverse the Spire in an attempt to apprehend and detain whoever was the mastermind to this debacle.  As they make their way towards the sound of a struggle, they finally see Marshell Percy on the top deck of this Spire in a savage battle with a small army (Ouroboros).  Bodies lie everywhere and he is bleeding and disheveled.  The Actor’s Guild is lying nearby presumably dead.  Wally assumes this is a coup and assumes correctly that Percy is the mastermind.  As they plan an attack they are joined by the remaining members of the Alpha team.  The Alphas defeat Percy and Dayshift arrest and detain as many members of Ouroboros as they can. 

Additional SLJ support team arrive and take in the prisoners (helped by Dayshift) while the Alphas go to help their team against O’Defensor.  The monster is in full bloodlusted rage and has to be taken down using lethal force.  They kill the monster and he falls impaling himself on the mountain’s jagged remains.  As the monster falls, Percy laughs maniacally in triumph.  The Sayang team that was in the mountain had long escaped to who knows where.  The mystics are dead, crushed beneath the mountain and monster and as the SLJ try to piece together what happened back at their traveling command post, a small scruffy little girl crawls from beneath the rubble.  She stretches as if she hasn’t moved limbs in a long time.  Shields her eyes from the daylight and looks around.  Smiles and walks off into the daylight as Percy continues to laugh maniacally knowing that Rasa Sayang has been born from the chaos.

So basically, Percy along with half the world found out about this creature in this mountain due to Sarah Maroon.  Well, he knew that Sayang would be born out of chaos and what could be more chaotic than releasing a giant Kaiju and pissing it off (Have you ever seen Godzilla movies?).  So he heads over their to dish out the pain.  Of course, every little side crazy thing that happened (The coup, the fights) all helped create more tension, while the Whisper Man scrambled the brains of the mystics and basically made them do a summon. 

Speaking of, treach. How was your fic gonna end?

Oh crap!  You're right.  Let me type that up.  I'll post it on FPL.

Once upon a time, there was an ancient race of mountain giants that lived on the Mountain, Ferret Hills.  These giants had a game where they created their own weapons from sticks and stones and fought each other.   One day, they let other tribes join in.  The other tribes didn’t like creating their own weapons and instead used old weapons they found lying around.  The other tribes spent most of their time arguing over how great their weapons were and they would enlist multiple trolls to help them win fights.  The mountain giants got a lot of good laughs at the other tribes, but eventually went to a different part of the mountain to create original games.  The other tribes went to their own part of the mountain as well and argued over feats that their weapons had done in the past.  After a while the mountain began to crumble under the weight of so many giants.  It crumbled apart altogether.  The other tribes immediately rushed head first into another mountain and named it Ferret Hills.  I’m almost certain that their trolls went too.  They continued to play their game there and they were happy.  Meanwhile the original giants created a council to create a brand new mountain, taking their time and really putting thought into it.  They gave it a new name for it was truly a new thing.  As they took their time to create the perfect new mountain, they could still hear the other tribes throwing rocks at each other and screaming about the feats of their previously owned weapons.  It was funny.  The end.

This is going to be long winded, so many good/bad times remembered.  Let's start at the beginning (Note, I've probably told some of these stories a dozen times before)...

 

A treacherous journey (My EF Timeline)

 

2004 : At some point before this, I had seen this site and said, "This is the most amazing thing I've seen in my life."  Then I never returned to it.  Then when I had a chance in 2004, I returned to it.  I thought the CBUB was fine, but at that time only admins could create matches and they would only pick certain comments to post on the match as well.  So I said, "Let me see what this FPL is about."  I checked it out and I said, "This is the most amazing thing I've seen in my life." So I tried it.  Back then, they used to Godsmack characters for sucking.  Well, everything I submitted got Godsmacked, so I quit.  But I still thought the site was amazing, so I lurked.

 

2004 thru 2006 : Lurking died down to a crawl... to a halt.

 

2007 : At this point, I had a little disposal income, got back into comics and said to myself, "Wonder what that Electric Ferret site is doing."  Note: Also at this point, I could barely remember the name of the site.  Took me awhile to re-find it. 

2007 : Cont... Knew I wanted to join the FPL and seek revenge against all those admins that denied me.  Knew I wasn't confident enough to do so.  Decided, I would go try my luck at the CBUB.  If I could do well there... So I entered the CBUB.  I can't remember my first match.  It was either Dr. Light vs. Cloak or a Trilogy of Hellboy vs. matches that ended with Hellboy fighting Cthulhu.  I remember the Dr. Light match didn't get much attention, but the Hellboy thing went  over well. 

 

2007 : 2008

 

- For the whole of that year, I hit CBUB hard.  Most memorable moments: The Clash for Khazan CBUB RP : FTANG Commando, The Once and Forever, Technomancer of Nesh, Granobulax, ND4(7,10), Silver Surfer and dozens of others participated in an RP I created and ran right on the CBUB boards.  Back then, the fights could only handle so many posts and then they would break.  We did three games and we used to tear the boards all to pieces because we would have 100's of posts each game.  It was lots of fun, because we would break the boards, we'd have to create new matches and spill into those (and break them too). 

 

- The Tournament of Swords and the Tournament of Fighters: Huge tournaments that I held on the CBUB.  These tournaments would basically ask users to pick one fighter who was either ad swordfighter in the former and a hand to hand fighter in the latter.  I would have 20 to 30 combatants and I created 100's of matches to finish these.  I think I led in match creation during this time.  Plus, I had an A rating for quite a long time.  Those tournaments were fun.  During this time, I met...

 

- Granobulax!  Nicest guy you'll ever meet. The Ken to my Ryu.  After all that stuff, Grano became my rival/friend.  He would always one-up me and I had to one-up him back.  The friendly rivalry really helped both of us improve a lot.  Grano did the best series of CBUB stories (set-ups) I'd seen on CBUB next to Rakai's Predator stuff.  He did a series of King Kong matches following a family of Kong's from Skull Island or wherever Kong was from.  Good stuff.

 

2008 : The FPL Challenge!!! This was the year I was personally challenged to do battle in the FPL by the Main Character himself (Landon).  It was perfect timing because I had exhausted most ideas on CBUB and I was feeling slightly confident to try my hand at FPL.  The decision was made for me since they happened to be holding an FPL tournament at the time.  Before the challenge was brought to me, I had been hanging in the FPL forums and kinda getting to know the crowd.  I had been keeping up with them and their characters too.  Research.

 

To be continued...

I think I'm going to leave this incomplete forever as is the FPL tradition.

Oh look someone changed the title?  Imagine that.  Oh and by the way FPL is kicking up their own site for the real movers and shakers.

I think you'll all have a good idea once you get in the sandbox.

True Story.  China is a huge market for American movies and they go as far as to add/change scenes for Chinese markets.  You guys better add more Wuxia characters to the database.

You CBUBers. Too many chiefs and not enough "Indians". How many sites you guys going to make?

Explains the poop.

It is fun to jump in a sandbox. Just don't pour water in it.

Better get your tweakers out!

Nah, I haven't really done anything except for agree with Landon and get too excited about things. Also, there's a group of us working on everything who all deserve credit as well. Although it's mostly Landon (especially if this thing fails, then it's definitely all Landon). 

 

Thank you for the compliment though.

 

Don't be shy Tarv. Take all arguments to Tarvius. He is in charge of complaints and Piña Coladas.

We're working on the new joint. We should be able to go public within the week.

New joint... Key Word is New. NEW! Not a direct port.

This is it. The Electric Ferret is going the way of the Dodo. So, it's time to say your last words and give us your favorite, funniest, scariest and most memorable Electric Ferret moments. Go for it.

Good idea. Is that the only spin-off site? Or are the CBUBers going to pop up fifty alternative sites? I keep hearing people saying they are going to start their own sites. FPL and CBUB finally splitting forever... Doesn't surprise me.
