Ahh, the days of the VBB... keeping TAS alive far longer than it deserved...
... and then breaking the forum when the thread became longer than 100 pages...
I ended up starting a spinoff of TAS on a different board altogether. It was, oddly enough, well-received.
And it involved Elvis and his army of Smurfs, prune-throwing gnomes, Mr.T (of course), multicolored intelligent black holes, the UES Iron Fish, an evil scientist named Von Herringberg, his clone Von Cerringberg, the Uzbekistani Commandos, and Newfoundland flying through space with its amazing half-timezone powers.
