How will this outage be remembered in FOFC lore?

[cartman]

Dead October?
The great crash of 'ought 4'?
Silence of the Trout?

What are your thoughts or ideas?

[JeeberD]

Like I suggested about three weeks ago...

The Great FOFC Drought of Oh-Four

I would also allow Ought-Four as well...

[JAG]

The Dark Age

[vex]

As the time FOFC moved, again.

[Peregrine]

How about noFC?

[Fonzie]

November Surprise?

[gottimd]

Getting bent over by GameSpy

[Fonzie]

The Second Age of Wandering

[Sun Tzu]

That month that we were forced to actualy do something at work.

[Cringer]

The time the patriotic briefs that hold us together came undone at the seams......

[WSUCougar]

SkyDog and the Board of Tomorrow

[John Galt]

How about noFC?

I second this one - it is simple and sad.

[kingfc22]

Getting bent over by GameSpy
That gets my vote.

[GrantDawg]

As the time FOFC moved, again.
Got my vote.

[Fonzie]

Silence of the Trout?

Piggybacking off of this one: The Day The Trout Stood Still.

[Buzzbee]

I'm waiting for another WSUCougar poem. I figger "We Weren't FOFC" would be an apt title.

[Franklinnoble]

FOFC will not accept a banning.

[Franklinnoble]

or, The Great Penalty Box of '04

[Franklinnoble]

or, I Dropped The Soap at Ben E Lou's

[Franklinnoble]

I got nothing.

You means something like this?

Screen of Silence
(sung to the tune of "Sound of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel)

Hello GameSpy, my old friend. I’ve hit the refresh key again.
Because FOFC isn’t loading…left me with no place for posting.
And the puzzle that was planted in my brain still remains within the screen of silence.

On restless boards I walked alone, narrow sites of rehashed porn
‘neath the halo of a desk lamp, I missed the tales of kleenex now damp
when my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a time-out error
that was always there, and touched the screen of silence.

And in the naked light I saw ten thousand Jeeber-posts, maybe more
Members talking without posting, members hearing without reading.
Members dynasties that readers never shared, no one dared disturb the screen of silence.

"Fools," said Franklin, "you do not know, GameSpy like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you, in the butt is how they reach you."
But his words like silent raindrops fell and echoed in the threads of silence.

So the members bowed and prayed to the GameSpy god they made
and the sign flashed out its warning in the words that it was forming.
And the sign said "The words of the posters are written on the board threads
and dynasties and whispered in the screen of silence."

Brought a tear to my eye.

You have earned a permanant spot in The Pantheon of FOFC for cranking this out mere moments after the return of the board. Bravo!

I KNEW WSUCougar wouldn't disappoint! You are an amazing poet Coug. :thumbsup:

[Ksyrup]

Good stuff. He's had this waiting to post since October 22, though. Don't let him fool you.

[WSUCougar]

Thanks. I just wish my wife were so laudatory about my quickness. ;)

[Franklinnoble]

Now all you have to do is record it. I guarantee it will outsell your last album. ;)
