The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

"Hey buddy!" Eric said.  "Are you OK?"

Scooby Dum looked to the folks at the booth.  "It's nothing," he replied.  "I only hit my head."

The four exchanged looks, then Alyssa's expression lit up.

"Wait, are you Scooby Dum, of the Scooby Doobies team?"

"I am?"  There was a pause.  "Oh yeah, I guess I am..."  He gave a funny-sounding chuckle.

"I'll tell you one, thing," Ticker muttered.  "The Secretary of the Navy he's not..."

The others hushed him quiet before turning back to the Great Dane.

"We've been hoping to find someone of the Scooby Doobies to talk with," Eric continued.  After eating, you don't mind walking with us to Sunshine Street Inn?"

Dum gave a dumb look, which was normal for him, before he answered.  "Sure thing!"

The newcomers were ecstatic...

----------

Don Karnage barged in.  "Good evening and salutations!  I am Don Karnage!  The scourge of the seven skies!  And I have come to join your silly games..."

"Not to worry," Karnage replied.  "Now that I am here with my clever brains and ruthless disposition, we shall be bound to win more treasure than we ever dreamed!"

Gibber sighed...

"Football?  I know EVERYthing about football!" Karnage replied, then turned to Gibber and whispered.  "What is this football they're talking about?"

Gibber mumbled the reply in Karnage's ear...

----------

The group was finished with their meal, payed the waitress and left the hotel with Scooby Dum, heading for the inn where the wizard is staying...

Donald and Taz were also finished, paying their share, and left their separate ways to rest...

"Actually, we're not the participants," Eric replied.  "We represent the potential participants, Knightwolf..."

Ticker cleared his throat loudly.

"And Watchdog..."

"So we were told that we need to talk to a wizard to join your team," Alyssa added.

Droopy finished then headed up to the shared room.  

"Ah, good to see you in." Gary said.  He took out a small battery powered pocket radio and tuned to the stations to see if there were any old radio shows playing live.  If not he could use a pocket pc with some collections that he had.

Jason and Guilmon came out of a small cafe.  To one side the was a car parked with the hood up and there was a guy looking at the engine.  Jason walked over.  

"Having a problem?" Jason asked.  

"Yes, I can't see what the problem is." the guy said.  

"I have something that will help at least to get you home or to a mechanic." Jason said as he reached into a pocket.  He then pulled out a picture of Garfield looking fierce with one paw with claws extended toward the camera that took the picture and his face looking fierce and his fur standing up.  Jason held the picture over the engine with the picture facing the engine.  The engine started right up.  Jason stuck the picture, face down so it was facing the engine, on the underside of the hood.  

"There, that will get you to your mechanic or home.  Just peel the picture off, it's easy to take off." Jason said showing as he started to peal a corner of the picture back to show it was easy to take off then put it back.  

"Thanks." The guy said then he closed the hood and got into his car & drove off.  

"Funny that worked." Guilmon said.  

"Just have to remember where you are.  That sort of thing works here, but not in other parts of this multiverse." Jason said as they walked down a bit and got to his tardis, in the shape of a police call box, but with diplomatic plates and flags on it.  The 2 of them walked in and it soon dimeterialized.

"I'm Alyssa Knight, and this is my brother Eric."

Eric nodded.

"And these two are Wolfie and Ticker.  They came with us to meet the Scooby Doobies."

Wolfie gave a cheerful nod.  Ticker not as much.

The quartet turned to the squirrel who entered.

"Hiya, Mr Wizard!" Scooby Dum replied.

Ticker rushed to a pair of chairs and sat down, but was brushed off easily by Wolfie, who allowed Alyssa and Eric.

"Actually, we're not the ones who are competing," Alyssa started.  "We're representing a pair of heroes from our hometown of Sky City, called Knightwolf and Watchdog.  Since crime there has gone down for a long time, Knightwolf wishes to continue his skills in things that aren't so...dire, if you catch my drift."

"Knightwolf is also representing local charities for any money to be raised in the games," Eric added.

(OOC:  They're still keeping the charade up to protect Knightwolf's and Watchdog's identities.)

Well gentlemen, you can tell your friends that I will expect them here by tomorrow. and these games are not so.. easy as you mat think. Things are actually very dire here, the toons whom these games are going to benefit were virtually bankrupt before i financed these games. payouts are as follow 100, 000 per player with bonuses based on individual and team performances. so far the Scoobys have earned 600 points and 1.2 million. which leads all teams..Top prize is 100 million for the overall winner.
