This page can be summed up in three words... an update archive.
Update List #5

F
(#1 out of 4, collect them all!)
Hi there, Johnny, how's it going?
|
-
Ignore the mindless intro and listen to this:
WHAZZUP?!
has been updated with four new ones, and one that is actually worth watching!
-
The Swamp now has its first Shockwave Flash splash page! Rejoice, then rejoice
with your friends!
FILLER SPACE:
-
According to Serpent, I've "changed." That could be so. I just don't feel like
pleasing all audiences anymore (I am just changing audiences, really. The old
audience hates me, and the new audience will love me. Is this true?).

Sunday, SUNDAY, SUNDAAY!, May 7th
--
This kid's gonna have a heart attack when he finds out he's not funny.
With all the great sites like ToastyFrog, RockeT CanyoN, and not-as-great sites
like Lobsterboy's Page, a site such as this becomes envious. And embarrased. I
look at all the old stuff and old updates we've done, and I say: O_o We're so
cheesy, we could put California out of business. We have to improve, but I'm
not sure how. Maybe swear a lot more.
|
-
Ahh... WHAZZUP?!... the best Budweiser ad campaign since the last one. It's
created such a commotion on the net that we've opened a
shrine
to it, along with some VERY BAD parodies I made. I thought I'd stop at just
one, but other people told me to make others. Start with my best one so the
others look even worse.
-
I gave the wandering
Sound Clips
page a home on the menu. Finally.
FLLR SPCE:
-
Be sure to check out my
Server Page
for cool stuff I own, from
M
IDIs to
M
P3s to '
M
ulations to
M
ovies to the
M
idgar Swamp to
M
y own page. Just remember: the six M's...
-
We'd link to the Style Project (intentionally mispelled), but we're not that
sick. Why the HELL did I just say that?

Sunday, SUNDAY, SUNDAAY!, April 30th
--
WHAZZAAAAAP!!!
Hey-hey-hey! Serpent231 (!) here, and I've gotta give mad props to AtW for
holding the fa--er, fort up while I was gone!
*takes out an angry broom, vase, and coffee table, and sets them loose
on JeffreyAtW*
Okay, now that that's done, I'd like to say that most of my absence was due
to laziness, lack of computer time, my sister's dog chewing up a modem cord
(seriously!), or all of the above. However, since I'm BACK (sorta), I've
got some actual content to put up but due to the
"new 'n improved"
style of updates though I'm gonna make this as short as I can even though
I've already started rambling in the opener oh I've gone cross-eyed.
|
-
I got so many
231 Sightings
over the time that I
was "gone", I'm only gonna put some of them up so this update won't be too
*gasp* BIG!
-
I also wrote a wacky up review of an even wackier game that
everybody
should play...
Mr. Nutz!
-
Added
Mr. T vs. Generic Guy
to Misc. Stuff,
a mildly funny "Mr. T vs." episode that I did for a
French
project!
-
Updated Ye Olde
Staffe Infoe
...
-
Added a few
links
: One to another RPG humor site
that was spawned off of Cosmo Canyon (yay!), and the rest to the funniest
gosh damn movie files out there, the "Wazzup?" commercials (and spinoffs)!
-
Hope you liked the
new splash image
! Wow, that's two
images that have made fun of Canada...and I'm half Canadian! Boy, am I
evil.
FILLAAAA!
-
Currently, my parents are looking for a
RUG SHAMPOOER~!
(inside joke
between me, AtW and Caires...I think you can see where this is going).
-
Can you
believe
the number of kids who know the words to "The Real
Slim Shady"?! Not that I don't like the song, but...hey, I'm talking 11,
12 year olds who don't even understand half of the stuff Eminem says! At
least it's not the case of "Bad Touch" or "Voulez-Vous Coucher Avec Moi?",
where the kids didn't understand
any
of the lyrics.
Dast eez all.
Note from Ragnarok, who usually doesn't post updates here: You're forgetting
one thing.
My 17
th
birthday was the 27
th
.
DAST eez all.

Back to School, Back to School...
To prove to Serpent he's a fool... he got a bad grade on his test, and is
restricted from the computer. But Uncie Jeffrey is here with a nice, juicy
update! Now if only I can remember what's new...
|
-
BobCFed08
has sent in loads o' stuff,
including two new
reviews
:
Final Fantasy Tactics
, and
Lufia II
.
-
Bob also sent us a new
Funny Screenshot
. On a
side note, I personally don't like this screenshots section because you can
find the exact same stuff at
ZVGQ
,
but we may delete all the unoriginal stuff. Or, we may contribute our original
stuff, get rid of the whole page, and be done with it. Hmm...
-
I relocated the lost
Waves
section to the
Misc. Stuff
section, and added a
new one
by
Thuh
Captain
.
-
A new
link
to another RPG Humor Site.
-
A new splash page with the ideal North America as we envision it.

Saturday, April 22nd

4OUR 2WENTY PPZ!!!!!!!
Well, 4:20 went along nicely, with no school shootings to top it off! Hooray!
|
-
Ragnarok saves the day again. Now, for all you Internet Explorer 5 people,
if you bookmark any page of the Swamp (YOU HAVEN'T?), a cute little Oynx
icon will pop up beside it. Ragnarok also did his share of link changin'
and character page updatin'.
-
I added a funny image sent to me by Ragnarok, to the
Pictures
section.
-
BobCFed08, now a former Windorian (buh bye, Skan U_U) has sent us his
review
on
Breath of Fire
II
, yet another good game. We need more reviews of bad games, people!
FILLA' SPACE:
-
After such a long streak of updates, and the Swamp moving to my server, it's
easy to see that I've become the real owner of the Midgar Swamp. Of course,
that doesn't mean that Serp's leaving, just the fact that I'm more devoted
than HE is... don't really expect any changes, though. I promise.
|
Friday, April 14th

School's... out... for... spring.
Ah... 9 1/2 days of pure nothingness... I'm wasting it doing this, but that
should be a good thing. BTW, I'm breaking the streak of really big updates, and
going back to basics!

Tripod? Isn't that what a video camera sits on?
We've finally done it... we're off of Tripod! Of course, we're off of Tripod in
exchange for a little bigger local name, but hell, we've got 4.7 gigs of free
space, and a pretty fast download/upload speed, too! Know why? The Midgar Swamp
is now served off my computer!
|
-
The new URL for the swamp is
http://c179793-a.marin1.sfba.home.com/midgar/
, but you don't have to remember THAT. Just go to
http://i.am/231
, the trusty redirection URL.
-
The splash page's updated, now with a cool parody of
ToastyFrog
, starring Oynx!
-
Serpent's made two new things (he still ain't dead, considering my update
streak): a
review
on
Destrega
, and a
song parody
of Flagpole Sitta,
Treetop Sitta
. Hehehehe!
-
I've really done it this time... Steve Caires' legendary
Untitled
sound has been updated by me! It's got Ride of the Valkyries in the
background, adding 200% of the mood.
FILLER SPACE:
-
Keep in mind that we may not be keeping this address forever... we could move
back on to Tripod. Or not. Because now with all this free space, we could put
just about anything on the Swamp. It could become the next Microsoft.com!
...or not.
-
Just for fun, I'm going to put the extended version of my "theme song,"
Cable Modem Midnight Thwacker
, thanks to John Wang...
Heeeeee's aaaaaaaa....
Cable modem midnight thwacker
Online all night long
He's a cable modem midnight thwacker
On his Fun Dot Com
He's a cable modem anglo-saxon
New age keyboard punk
He's a cable modem alter-ego

Ahahahaha!
Remember the good ol' days when we used to update, like, every other day? Well,
those probably will never be coming back, but I'm gonna makie this updatie as
smallie as I wantie! Ahahahaha! :P
|
-
The splash screen features my desktop. That's right! You can take a look at
what I'm doing, whether it be homework, ICQin' and AIM'in, website makin, or
p04|\|
!
-
231 Sightings
updated with ONE new one by me!
-
For MIDI of the Day, it's
Pardon Me
by Incubus, and sequenced by me! I'm getting really good at this stuff.
-
Maniacal Laughs
updated. ThuA hAHA HAHA!!!
FILLER SPACE:
-
Serpent's and my quarrel is over, but the bad part is that I can't make any
more jokes about Serpent-- OW!
-
REALLY good news... my computer magically set itself up to be a server (when I
installed the webcam software) SO... the Swamp could be MOVING! And what's
more, it could be moving to a site with 4GB free space, 500KPBS bandwith, and
no ads! Actually, it already HAS moved, and you can visit the new location
here
, but it won't be really official until April 12, when I've made up my mind.
What's more, this is the kicker, MY computer will be the server! You'll
actually be downloading stuff from my computer. Isn't that an honor?
|
Friday, March 31st

Okay, how d'you like THIS?
All right, since you all hated me for duping the
Blue
and
Green
scheme and going with that damn metallic border, I decided to dupe that as
well and go back to
Blue
and
Green
. But... It's a bit neater, with a darker blue color and a brighter green
color. I think you like it. Am I right?
|
-
Duh... splash screen changed a little, if you know what I mean...
-
231 Sightings
have been split into four pages, so you don't have to wait for the annoying
old ones.
-
Links
updated, with the first ever link to a phone number.
-
Oh yeah, I forgot that Ragnarok made a
song parody
of YMCA:
The Midgar Swamp.
Good joob, Roognoorook.
FILLER SPACE:
-
Serpent and I are going through a phase. Or, at least Serpent. Steve Caires
(I'm not going to say what he's done anymore) and I like to pull pranks and
jokes on Serpent when he's in a perverted mood (his most recent accomplishment:
"Magic Johnson"), online and offline. Actually, I've been repeatedly making a
fool of Serpent on
The IAQ Club
, and he's been flaming me as a response. Actually, he told everyone that I
stay up after midnight and download fRee pIx oF CHu-ChU off my cable modem, but
instead of getting humiliated, Steve and I made a song about me (sung to that
patriotic flute song):
Heeeeee's aaaaaaaa....
Cable modem midnight thwacker,
Online all night long,
He's a cable modem midnight thwacker,
On his Fun Dot Com!
Thank you, thank you...

Saturday, March 25th

How d'you like it?
Yep, we've overhauled the site and turned it into this metallic piece of crap.
It took some debating and around seven packs of Mountain Dew, but we've decided
to dupe the
Blue
and
Green
scheme and go with something that fit the neato metallic border. We'll be
tweaking it, so if you don't like it, you can sure as hell tell us.
|
FILLER SPACE:
-
Okay, here's the scoop. In a fun ol' chat with the people of RPG Frontier, I
explained Serpent's undying lust for the number 231 (and Fritz). Someone
must've taken that the wrong way (or maybe the right way, the way I was
explaining) and they decided to parody our site. Well, this was only one of the
attributes to the reason we revamped the Swamp. Don't expect BIG BIG BIG
changes, but... no more happy eye-hurting blue and green color scheme. We
understand the Fritz made a fanfic about it, but as they say (preferrable Bob
and Margaret on Comedy Central), blue and green don't mix. Probably the same
reason Fritz titled the bad song after it.
-
By the way, don't go and flame RPG Frontier. The Slums weren't supposed to even
get out into public, but it did, and so they got their just desserts. Don't
make it any harder on them, m'kay?
-
It's that time again... when we apologize for not updating the Swamp in a few
weeks. Well, first of all, no one really cares anymore, and second of all,
needless to say, we have lives, too. But here's another Swamp promise...
We promise not to apologize anymore about not updating frequently.

My ears! My EARS!
The
WORST
MIDI
POSSIBLE!
(tm)
contest has ENDED! We've had SEVEN, count'em, seven entries! That's almost
half of the entries for the Jade Monkey contest! Not too shabby! Okay, maybe it
is.
|
-
M'kay. Well, the main attraction of this update is the contest results. Not
only that, but we've opened up a new section:
Contests
. So,
here're the results
!
-
Ragnarok has changed the HTML tags around just a bit more.
FILLER SPACE:
-
Ahh... life is so very, very sweet. Today the best thing since I got a new
computer happened: I got cable modem service! Can't you feel the energy pulsing
through every word? That is the power of
AT&T @Home!
Hoo boy... Also, Serp and I went to the first track meet of the new millenium
today... he didn't do that hot but I did TERRIBLE... but it seems I was having
a better time. Hmph. That's attitude for ya.
-
I'm now playing Seiken Dentesu 3, probably the most fun RPG I've ever played!
-
That's all, y'all! Word, um, out 'n' stuff.

Hot carp!
Uh, it's been a while, hasn't
it?
:(
>
Yeah, you're right, wise man. It's time to get ill...er, updated (pointless
little Beastie Boys reference for yas there). I've just been helluvabusy
with track and field and homework and my Best of Loveline tape and my ROMs
and my watching of a WWF Pay Per View where one of the two wrestlers who
wrote a book dropped about 15 frickin' feet from a steel cage above the ring.
That's definetely going on my highlights video...
All right, I'm rambling. I'll just leave you to read the OTHER part of these
updates...the Blue One.
|
Hey-hey! Blue update here, and I'm ready to check off
all the shiznit that be goin' down in my hood!
Um...word to your mother!
-
A'ight, a'ight, those
231 Sightings
have been updated
for your time-wasting pleasure.
-
So have those wacky
Add Ons
. You're just lucky that
I didn't add an "H" to one of those previous words...
-
AtW and I wrote a pointless little bio to the newest superstar to hit the
RPG Humor scene:
Mr. Tifa
! I think you can smell
what we're cookin'...
-
New YAK in da hizooooouuuse:
Azure Sky
! It
sounds kinda generic at first, but actually, this guy's actually trying to
make this into an actual game. Whoo, I say "actual" too much.
-
Next up, an old 5K001 YAK (also known as IAQ, whatever
that
is) has
been updated as well:
BREAD
! (also known as
Pain
).
-
Funny screenshots updated with dem
funny
screenshots
.
Heyyy...I just thought of a new feature to add to updates! Besides sound
effects and "Sunday Sunday
SUNDAY!
", we'll add a section called "FILLER
TIME!" when we're done with the actual substance part of the update,
and just want to make the thing look bigger with news, random facts, and
other cool junk. Sound good?
Readers:
NOOO!
Staff:
YEAHHH!
Good, it's unanimous!
-
The
WORST
MIDI
POSSIBLE~!
(tm)
contest...has...
E

Thanks to all that participated--we'll have the results up soon...we hope
>_<
-
I've been re-appointed as vice prez to the
AIW
! I help write the
matches, and run the backstage stuff behind the ultra-hArDkOrE wraslin' league.
The new episode of Friday Night FEAR has arrived, and if you're one of the
.00342% readers of the Midgar Swamp that likes pro-wrestling, you should
go read what happened!
-
We got an award from our good buddy Ragnarosen!
Check it
out now, ya funksoul brotha!
-
Okay, more filler...more filler...oh yeah! If you haven't already, just go
and read Fritz Fraundorf's Frickin' Fantabulous Fanfic, foshdarnit!
Um Jammer
Selphie
is one of his best yet. And yes, they DO keep getting better,
if you're wondering why we Cosmo Canyon fans keep saying this.
-
Um, I'm working on about 3 reviews simultaniously, so they won't be here
for a while. However, one of them should be up by the next update! Let's
just hope that this time, I'm not wrong again. |(|:-)

Wednesday, March 1st

Ah,
the good ol' days...
Yes, the days when we used to update this site at least twice a week, when
our humor wasn't as repetitive (well, Serpent's, anyway), and when we actually
had enough free time to do anything... well, needless to say, times have
changed. But hey, wouldn't a newcomer to this site just be way too overwhelmed
if we updated too often? Think of it THAT way!
|
-
All right, foistly, the PS2 is coming out on Friday (in Japan, that is)!
All rejoice! If you do not buy this fine piece of hardware once it is released
in America, I will personally come to your house, rip your cerebrum out through
your tear gland, submerge it in Castrol oil, and jackhammer it into the space
between your eyes! BTW, I'm not joking.
-
Sing with me:
FIVE - THOU - SAND - HIIIIITS!!!
*disco music plays
and dies quickly* And do you know what the saddest thing is? I was the 5000th
visitor. U_U Buuuut... I got a
pic
of it for your viewing
pleasure!
Stüssy sez
: Huh huh... pleasure...
It's also too bad that we didn't reach 5000 on this Friday (PS2 is coming
out, just so ya know).
-
Speaking about hit counters, last Friday (PS2 countdown was seven days) Ragnarok
spent his precious time making us a beautiful blue and green counter, since
the last one zonked (say that last word again with me... ZONK. ZONK ZONK
zNKNOZNO) out. Also, for all you IE4+ users, Ragnarok added even more Javascript
into the pages for a cool hover effect on all the links!
-
I've posted about this on the board, but the Midgar Swamp's
WORST
MIDI
POSSIBLE
(tm)
contest is coming to an end on the release
date of the PS2 (it's Friday, BTW). Everyone roll up what you're doing, and
hope you don't get first prize!
-
We have many, many 231 Sightings, but Serpent (yeah, he's still alive too)
asked to put them up himself. Maybe he'll do it on Friday (PS2~!!!!!1)
-
Of course, I'm giving credit to Steve Caires (or Thuh Captain, maker of Sounds
From Hell, Don't Go There, Untitled, 3 1/2 Nougats of Crack, blah
blah
Blah
Blah
BLAH
) for partially drawing our
wonderful new splash screen image! It features his very own character, Captain
Winkey, and it's a neat little spoof of Captain Morgan Run advertisements!
And what do you know, he drew it last Friday (one week before the PS2 comes
out)!
-
For the MIDI of the day, we have the Bum Bum Song! I decided to make a MIDI
of it many Fridays (day of PS2 release! Yeah, baby!) ago but gave up, and
then decided to keep working on it (mostly because I heard a crappy MIDI
version of it and said "Hell, I can do better"), so don't think for a second
that I like old music (even though I do).
-
I just altered a link in the Links page, the
Kingdom
of Windor
has moved a couple Fridays ago (PlaaaayStaaation Twoooo)...
-
There's a link on the Fanfics page to Fritz latest work: UM! JAMMER! SELPHIE!
You can probably summarize it by its name... and what's more, it's the
sequel to
Blue and Green
! Be sure to
check it out every Friday (Hey, you hear that the PS2 is coming out on Friday?
No?! Philistines!)!

Tuesday, February 8th
--
Wah.
Here I am with another one of those cute, small updates. :)
|
-
Well, first, a bit of news. I have officially changed my nickname! This is
VERY important for those of you at home. I have changed from JeffreyATW to
JeffreyAtW. The lowercase "t" gives me a bit more of the SlEeK sPuM essence.
-
Okay. For James's wonderful little new MIDI contest, where you are challenged
to create the
WORST
MIDI
POSSIBLE
(tm)
, I have created another example. Now, you
may feel envious about the SkIlZ I put into this MIDI, but don't fear. Unless
Ragnarosen or Tyvek Linhaal enters into this contest, you have nothing to
worry about. Oh yeah, the example. It's called
"
3 And a Half Nougats of
Crack
", and it's actually a remix of the original song created by master
composer,
Thuh Captain (a.k.a. Steve
Caires, The Creator Of Don't Go There, etc.)
. Don't ask about the name.
-
All right,
231 Sightings
updated.
-
To top this update off, we've got a new little tHanG going: a new
Archives
list! This one's for the
title images
, but don't think we're
going to update the title image EVERY update. BTW, the most recent (and utterly
hilarious) one was created by former MST'er
Max Morgunov
(Yes, he is the kid
who dies in
MCMSRPGIAQ
.)
-
Oh yes, two more bits of news... our secondary server,
sentra.tripod.com
, was down a day
or two ago. It's nothing to worry about (even though it FREAKED THE $#!%
out of us). Any broken images or links are back up. Also, did Tom Green's
wonderful song "I'm Throwing the Piggies Off the Hill" go unnoticed?
|
Sunday, SUNDAY,
SUNDAY!

Boo!
Hello, your friendly neighborhood
Lobstaboy
here making
a bit of a tiny self-promotional unlicensed update.
|
-
First off, note the new
flame-alicious
splash page
parody that I took the duty upon myself to post! Remember, all comments (Or
flames, as it will be) are to be directed towards
here
!
-
God, Serpent is going to kill me for this...... Here's a bit of Chrono Cross
art
that I made, and until
The GIA
finally posts it onto their
lovely Sketch Artist section! Oh, and if you don't like or understand it,
tough beans, bucko!
-
I havest
two
and a
half
reviews
for my
soon-to-be-not-not-released webpage! Enjoy and rejoyce!

OHHHH
YEAAAHH!!!
That phrase I just said will soon be forgotten, as FF9 takes
FF8's place in the sun. That's right... FFIX, X, and XI are coming. For a
full report, don't delay, go to the
GIA
!
|
-
This update was mostly made possible by that groundbreaking news, but we
have a couple other things. Ragnarok updated his
bio
, and he added a title image for the
Archives
-
Um... I made a new title image...
-
Uh, I udpdated my
staff info
a bit...
-
Updated the
Page FAQ
with some EXTREMELY important
questions.
-
Darn. I guess that's it. Well, still, you
must
be overjoyed that three
new FF's are coming. In FFIX, Castles are back, classic airships, anime-style
characters, MP, black mages, *four* characters in a party... happy days are
here at last.
|
Wednesday, December 29th
-- Boy,
I've been updating the site too much... well, it just's rolling out the red
carpet for Serpent's...
UPDATE OF THE MILLENIUM!
|
-
Ragnarok changed the
Links
section oh
so slightly. If you can find the change, uh, get a life. ^_^
-
I added a new little Javascript tag to every page that makes all the links
lose their underlines. They reappear when you put your mouse over them. NiFtEe,
huh?
-
I beat FF8! I have to say, they were right about the ending! (I'll leave
that up to you to find out what that means.)
-
Yet ANOTHER low-quality
MET2K
. Boy,
I gotta improve my MSTing Skee-ills...
-
A new short
song
, called
Squall
! It's just a verse, though.
-
Another thingy about Squall: a short fanfic called
Squall, the Ghetto Hero
. It's really
small, but hilarious. Viewer discretion advised.
-
To be politically correct, you could say, I've updated the
Page FAQ
with the REAL creator of 231.
-
A little present for y'alls, this one's made by me and Serpent: try to catch
Mr. Boot!
|
Saturday, December 26th
-- Happy
Birthday to me! ^_______^! I got cool presents. Money from some people, some
cool books from some people, a Diamond Rio MP3 player, and a box of
Quaker Oats
oatmeal from Serpent! Well,
hidden amidst the oatmeal was WipeOut 3 for PlayStation. But that'dsh shome
goooood oatmeal...
|
-
I changed the title screen once again, to our new millenium title screen!
It's smaller, it's got a sleek design, and it's made in PHOTOSHOP!
-
I also deleted the FF9 section. It was not that informative, and it was just
taking up space. Instead, it's replaced with a not-yet-active link to the
Archives, a feature coming soon to the Midgar Swamp!
-
I beat FF5! It's won my heart as the BEST Final Fantasy!
-
Me and my good friend
Mikosi
made some
MST's
, going by the title Mystery Esper
Theater 2000!
-
I finally updated the
staff picture
,
replacing Lady Marrah with Ragnarok, in the exact same pose!
-
231 Sightings
updated!
