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

"Maybe there's someone we know," Dongwa joked.

"i'll try some mouse ravioli," Sheegwa said.

~~~~~~~~~~~

"He just might," Belladonna assured the hooded claw. "you're doing bad-by which by our standards is good."

~~~~~~~~

"Here's a mine!" Tiger called to Stripetail. "And I found 5 carts."

Bugs watched as Lola fell cuddled up to her chair.

"Night," he said and looked out the window into the night but Tigger interrupted his train of though.

"Hm...as mean as dis Gabriel sounds, I think the games could be fun. Don't you, Pooh Boy?" he said, elbowing the yellow bear in his tubby stomach, making him spit out his honey he was chewing on hastily.

"Oh, yes, of-of course," Pooh agreed, and then went back to eating. As he was eating, he thought of his friends they left behind in the Hundred Acre Wood. He thought about how he would tell them about the games when they returned.

"Hmm...I wonder if dere's any jobs we could do when we get there...hm..." Tigger pondered, looking down at his feet thoughtfully.

" excellent the fifth one can serve as as the judges. They will ride alongside and keepo an eye out for low blows.." stripetaqil mused.
_ the chef brought out a big chicken for Dixie  and small fire pit complete with wood. "sorry we are out of matches.." he said and returned to the kitchenand laid it on the plate. Dixie quickly went to work. she lit the fire with her ring and tossed the chicken and mice into it. once the mice began to cook she rolled them and stuffed them into the turkey and began covering it with spices, and herbs as it slowly baked.

"What shall we do?" Wally asked.

"Why not go for a stroll around town." Droopy said.  

"Sounds like a good idea." Gary said.

"It'll be better to staying in the hotel room all the time.  Even if she may appear." Wally said.  "I still wonder if we may not need some help or something."

"Let's go out & walk around.  We'll get to see a new town and some exercise and an idea may come to us." Droopy said.

They left the hotel and started to walk around town.  At seeing the condition of the town Gary got an idea.  He stayed walking with the others but quietly ran off the first chance he got down a side alley.

He looked around, making sure no one was anywhere around.  He ducked down behind some large debris to be sure he would not be seen and closed his eyes and switched to his original human form.  A thing he'd not done for decades.  But he wasn't sure if the device would let him change to him in any other form since he'd not used it in so long.  

He pulled aside his left sleeve to reveal a bracelet type of thing that went from his wrist to elbow & was covered in buttons.  Something he had built during the early years he had been in this toon multiverse thing before he learned to mentally control whatever it was that allowed him to change to those different forms or whatever they were.

He looked at one particular button, one he'd not used in many decades, but with things a bad as they were in this town it seemed he may be needed here, though he didn't like him much and the feeling was mutual.

He pressed the button after a brief hesitation and a sigh.  The change was nearly instant.  And he was  changed into what looked like someone wearing a typical 30's style hat, trench coat, pants and shoes, except the figure had no face.

He looked up towards the top of one of the buildings he was beside.  "Let's see what sort of mess he is in this time." He said with a deep voice, speaking even with no face nor mouth.  He clipped his heals together briefly once and a spring shot out from his shoes to send him into the air, landing on the top of the building he had been looking at before.

"You'll be in here soon mousies....." Kitty taunted, pointing to her open mouth.

~~~~~~~~~

"I'll take a slice of mouse cake," Sagwa said.

"Mouse steaks sound appetizing to me," Dongwa figured.

~~~~~~~

The Duke landed outside of the mine Stripetail and Tiger were in. "I think I've finally lost track of my accursed nephew," the owl sighed, relieved.

"Maybe some kind of promotional song for this place," Miss Kitty suggested to Arlene.

"Trying to avoid my most annoying nephew Hunch," The Duke explained to the squirrel.

Already stuffed them in, once they were fully cooked. they should provide a nice crunch once you bite into them..Dixie replied as the chicken was now finished as she stuck it on a plate, and brought it over to Kitty. Waul had his dish brought out at that time as well. " i must warn you my dear ' that i have never lost a wager with this dish " He smiled.

"I'll try yours first," Kitty said to Waul, picking it up, and opening wide.

"Say goodnight mousie," she giggled, taking a big bite out of it.

"Believe me, if he wasn't related to me and was not a fellow owl, I would have eaten hiim by now," the big owl said to Stripetail.

~~~~~~~~~

"and it hasn't let me down," Miss Kitty complimented.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I think I see our food coming," Sagwa grinned.

"This is close...real close," Miss Kitty admitted
