    URPG Expansion Memories.

    [​IMG]

    This thread is to outline every body’s favourite memories in their time in URPG. This is mostly focusing on the expansion opening at BMG Forums. What are your favourite memories of us expanding?

    PE2Ker’s should talk about their time at the beginning of the expansion, and what they think today. Memories of certain Battles, etc.

    BMGer’s should talk about their memories of the URPG in general. Anything that comes to mind. A Favourite battle? Story? Friendship Memory?

    Post in this thread and the Staff will post this to TPW. This will show them how much love we have here and what big happy family the communities of both forums have become. Keep it clean guys, anything the Staff do not find respectable as a great memory will not be included. For example, flame wars, Banning, being rejected a Gym that kind of thing.

    Tell me your memories! This thread will close on the 2nd of May.

    I think one of my fondest memories, and of which there are many, was how unprepared we were for the influx of so many stories.

    We figured that the shortage would be Refs considering how critical battling was to the URPG, so extra effort was put to ensuring we had enough people to run the battles. Unfortunately, we underestimated the number of Graders we would need.

    I definitely remember fun chats with George, Kat and Scourge regarding the insane number of submissions slowly piling in the Stories section. So many would be graded each day only to see even more added to the list. It got to the point where stories wouldn't be graded for months upon months, a bit of a dilemma since new members were so eager to capture new Pokemon. I hope we didn't inconvenience too many people.

    Looking back on it all now, it was pretty comical. I'm just glad we finally managed to catch up... more or less.

    Basically the best memories were the battles and the conversations between these guys, namely the people I was closest to the most in the URPG:
    ShadowJake, Timpeni, Ragnarok0422, Eeveedude, Bulbasauraus, MuddyMudkip, eternus_situs, the pokemaster and Buoysel.

    Writing my first story, which was for a Magikarp, was also memorable. That, and the number of times I've pestered refs to ref battles for me, lol.

    OMG I FORGOT SCX and HIKARUIZUMI D:

    How I tried desperately to keep Pe2k with equal opportunities but then saw it was pointless ):

    My entire reffing career, which can simply be summed up by this one battle right here. Yes, I have very vicious dice.

    Aside from this I like the interesting and nice people I've met, and got to know around here.

    My favorite part of my time on BMG/URPG was meeting my best friends (WONT LIST BECAUSE I'LL FORGET SOMEONE AND ARGH), which wasn't an experience I'd had before (All my friends were CATS). I also really have enjoyed my time as a grader, writing ('specially the Musical), and of course, reading through My Immortal and other fanfic with URPGers.

    Also those bread puns were pretty wheat. (Oh, God, it's starting again.)

    I remember going for like a week around that time and came back to see the whole forum gone and everyone on pe2k. It wasn't funny at all at the time, but looking back...

    My favourite memory is my gym tourney battle against neon... that kind of lasted so long I could barely think straight by the end, and by the end, I mean when I gave up from exhaustion with neither of us having sent our 2nd pokemon.
