If you've ever wanted to see an episode of Jerry Springer, you have to look no further than [Egroups](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.egroups.com/lists/tw2002/). Lucas Aparently did something, and then frogman did something. Then they threw chairs at each other after they revealed they were cheating on each other with Midgets that were leading their own KKK faction. (I'd normally post a link to the messages, but after doing a search for "Mon Feb 28, 2000" and getting dates for Febuary 13th, 15th, 19th, and 23rd, I've given up on Egroup's search engine.) **Now for the Springer Final thought:** "Can't we all just get along?"

I got a message from Hellcat saying how good he is. Surprise there. Let's have some fun shall we? Post that on your website if you'd like. That's not a bad idea..... Gypsy is probably the worst playing well known player I can think of. You know, you seem a bit sexually frustrated. Since I feel sorry, I've decided to make a quick, "Trader's guide to dating" just for you! First off, here's Shell to demonstrate what a Woman looks like: Notice the differences in the area under the shirt you may not have seen before. Now that you know what these elusive creatures look like, where do they hide you ask? The answer is, as they call it, "Rave." The portals to this exotic isle are called bars, and appear randomly accross the US. (Unless you live in Wisconsin, they're on every street corner there) Grab your scoped rifle and head out to connect to your closest bar! (Note: Make sure to have the highest ping possible when connecting or else your excevation might end a little....prematurely. Being a stud from Cisco, that shouldn't be too much of a problem for you) If you feel a warm tingly feeling when you look at one of them, your halfway there! Now walk up to her and wait for the slap. *WHAP* You Done CBYed boy! Try again tomorrow in a new ship and get another slap. *Some other Rants about how good I, HELLCAT, [Master of the Universe](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.worldofcheese.org/cheese/book1/index.html), am.* Don't worry Hellcat, when I take over the world, I'll be sure to give you a country your maturity level can handle....Canada. (Sorry Canadians. I guess you'll just have to take one for the team, eh?)

With the [Sheer](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.egroups.com/group/tw2002/12384.html?) [Amount](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.egroups.com/group/tw2002/12179.html?) of [Bitching](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.egroups.com/group/tw2002/12134.html?) going on in the egroups forum concerning the USO, you'd think my Ex-girlfriend is the one who organized it. Hopefully, I **WON'T** have to speak my mind. If seems that the majority of lag was not actually caused by Frogland and MPB's systems, but was actually caused by have a large amount of people pressing CLV (Display Players) instead. Also, The Bug where you can be attacked while still docked at StarDock has also been found, and tonight Cruncher and Friends found yet another bug where Data Corruption can happen. John is already working on these and should have an update out soon. And Lastly, per his request, [Timberwolf got Deleted](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.egroups.com/group/tw2002/12143.html?).... Booya!

Seems Hellcat fibbed a bit on his [profile](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.thestardock.com/hellcat.htm). A [post](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.eisonline.com/TWForum/messages/3061.htm) made on the EIS Forum by Hosem clarifying a few items on his profile. First off, here's a quote you should always remember: "Gypsy is correct. Bless his dusty cobweb infested brain....Gypsy is nothing? As much as he can be a pain in the ass, he only did more for MBBS TradeWars then arguably any user in the history of this game. You still play this game that should have died years ago perhaps because of people like him who kept the interest alive. Who said that? I did. aka Anthrax." Among other things, Hellcat apparently killed Gypsy, Monday, Hosem, Gary & Ann Martin, and John Pritchett all with one photon. Oh yea, he also invented Nuclear Fusion and the [Internet](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.algore2000.com/).

[Merlin](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.surf1.de/home/merlin/index.html) Made a [post](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.eisonline.com/TWForum/messages/3035.htm) About one of his Game-ops cheating in one of his games. Won't be adding them to the Hall of Shame.

It seems someone was unhonorable enough in the USO tournament to actually try to hack into people's accounts. He got into both Rawhead's and possibly to Ripclaw too. Here's his pertanent Information: ``` game name is: Analyzer email address: Jeremy_Houston_34@yahoo.com IP address is: 12.28.69.23 ``` I'd suggest all Sysops to ban this IP. It also looks like I have the unfortunate task of Updating the Hall of Shame again.

Barb has given me official notification that I will now be hosting the USO game. The game at twgs.tradewars.org will be deactivated at 12:00 tonight and the game will then continue on my server after the data files have been transfered. (The game will not be starting from scratch like last time.) The Unlimited bandwidth offered by my 56k connection in tandem with my Quality Radio Shack Tandy 1000 at the server's core will provide the best experience yet. As [someone else](/)would say, this server will "Manhandle" the competition! the new address will be telnet://idiots.tradewars.org

[Dragons Elite](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://home.columbus.rr.com/dragonelite/) is now hosting the USO Obituaries Page. So head on over for the latest reports on Lag-uh, I mean Deaths. Big Lag in Little Frogland The USO is now having to restart after the Lag monster tore down the Server that was once Frogland. After a vote, the USO is going to be moved to [Miller's Pary Board](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.mpb.com/). The game is going to start from scratch tomorrow so Everyone who was originally killed by Hellcat can get their Ass kicked one more time.

While I was was out looking for a girl that would talk to me this Valentine's Day, Some of you are having even [more fun](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.egroups.com/list/tw2002/md1494628857.html) playing on the USO, which started today. Barb "I'm proud of my Body Damnit!" Cruz, (aka Badgirl, you know, the person who put together the USO?) has set up the [USO Obituaries](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.expage.com/page/usopenobits) page. as of this writing, Hellcat is in the lead with 10 pods and 3 kills. Epi's Webpage I finally got Epicenter's New address: [https://www.inland.net/~epicenter/](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://www.inland.net/~epicenter/) hi hello

Guardian has now moved [Dragons Elite](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://home.columbus.rr.com/dragonelite/). Also, it's been updated with new players for the first time in two months. Epicenter supposedly updated his page with a new look, but every link to it seems to be dead. (shrug) Lastly, [Rolodex](https://web.archive.org/web/20000000000000*/https://tradewars.homepage.com/) has put up a new webpage.
