Wow, I haven't typed the abbreviation "RWPF" in quite some time. Well, I guess that little tidbit goes along with the size of this small post. With that said, I have two things to say...
1) Happy 1-year anniversary, RWP vB! (The anniversary was actually the 26th, but...)
2) Welcome back, everyone. :)

*crazy guitar rifts play in the background*
*The crowd roars. Smoke fills the gigantic RWP sound stage.*
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, BOYS, GIRLS, AND SLIGHTLY MISSHAPEN JINJOS, LET THE PARTY BEGIN!"
*Banjo's Banjo walks out onto the stage. The crowd falls silent. crickets chirp in the background.*
BB: "Uhh...party on?"
*more crickets chirp. punch glasses are hurled on-stage, along with a shoe. The shoe was covered in mud, grass, and smelled a bit of old sourkraut.*
BB: "Happy anniversary?"
*The crickets swarm somebody in the crowd. Nobody apparently notices.*
BB: "Welcome back?"
crowd: "They promised us a rock band!"
*The crowd boos.*
BB: "well....I guess I could make a sock band."
*The crowd seems befuddled. A few WTF's rise from them. The shoe leaves a slight scuff mark on the stage.*
BB: "A band...out of sock...puppets?"
*The crowd is still silent. The crickets are now full. They move to Hawaii to sight-see.*
BB: "uhm...."
*Grey, Gold, and Icy walk out on stage holding an accordion, a harmonica, and a viola. BB pulls out his cell phone to play notes on.*
BB: "Well this will do."
*The makeshift band starts playing "Happy Birthday." They are immediately threatened for copyright and royalty infringement. They stop. One member of the crowd attempts to start the wave.*
*The band then starts again, with Hakey Wake playing the triangle. This time they play an offkey version of American Pie.*
Crowd: "WE WANT TO ROCK!"
*The band stops playing, then Gaming Master shows up with a keyboard. He turns on the demo music. The crowd roars with excitement. The band then starts playing the demo song.*
Everyone: "HAPPY ANNIVERSARY RWP! WELCOME BACK!!!"

It's kinda funny...you guys couldn't get in...and I couldn't get out.
You think it was fun with nobody around me and no food or water? Just read my journal:
" Monday, July 26th, 2004,
So much for Sub's assurance of my escape from the fallen remains of this trashy place. I find myself STILL crushed under the massive boulders of rubble that used to be the old Anything Goes section. Forced to eat nothing but hot dogs, broken computers thrown out of windows, anvils, and the remains of n00bs that Andre left behind...I fear insanity is inevitable. And to think...I baked this great cake for the aniversary, and nobody'll be here.
Of course...now that I think about it, I could've unlocked the door, and let you guys in...

Everyone: "HAPPY ANNIVERSARY RWP! WELCOME BACK!!!"
Typical, count on me to save the day. Well at least I got the recognition for my efforts.
I'm glad the forums are back. I was slowly going sane... I was having withdrawl symptoms... but they're back now.
WELCOME BACK EVERYBODY

Of course it took you 3 months to learn what part you hit and what part you hold... But at least after months of practise you managed it *claps for Hakey Wake* ;)

Happy Anniversary!
Sorry to hear about the server crash. I was hoping it was just a DNS issue. Anyways, I'm glad everything was archived and you're back up and running.

Is this (http://www.bcdb.org/stuff/rwp_rockthing.mp3) good enough? Rather unpolished and not as crazy as it could've been (I have a hard time writing random/crazy stuff), but hey. ;)
Ooh, look, it's Ice Mario! :mazza

I've always wanted a giant novelty hand but here in Australia i haven't seen them anywhere :( But now my dreams of owning one have come true.
Is this good enough?
Yes that's great. You may not think it's that crazy but it's great just the same.

We almost didn't make it this time. But atleast we are using the same type of forum again, not an entirely new one.
Yay, happy anniversary/birthday RWP!

Don't feel bad. You couldn't have come here the past few days anyway!
Now, if this is a party, what this thread needs is... dare I say it...you know what I'm going to say...
:mazza PUNCH!!!
Hah, false climax. You thought I was going to say RWP Punch.
Mmm... :mazza Punch.
