[Etc.] Those v1 Days

[xColdxFusionx]

I was just in this show recently, and I can't get this song out of my head.
So I came up with some lyrics.

(click to show/hide)

Sung to this tune:

Do you remember the good days of Cutstuff?
The servers were always so full.
Vanilla was fresh and exciting.
The fanbase was never too cruel.
We played o'er the network together
And everything 'round us was fine.
Now the rooms are dead and bare,
No joi de vivre anywhere,
Et maintenat the critics moan and whine.

Those v1 days we used to know,
Where have they gone? Where did they go?
Et bien, raise your berets
To those v1 days.

Do you remember those frantic Deathmatches?
The excitement of Capture the Flag?
That silly Chaos Generator,
and all those great times that we had?
It's funny, but since CutmanMike left,
We've gone to the other extreme.
No one joins the servers now.
They'd just get votekicked anyhow.
This game feels like it's just the stuff of dreams.

Those v1 days we used to know,
Where have they gone? Where did they go?
Et bien, raise your berets
To those v1 days.

It's funny, but since CutmanMike left,
We've gone to the other extreme.
Perhaps it can still be revived.
Perhaps the fanbase can survive.
But now it just feels like the stuff of dreams.

Those v1 days we used to know,
Where have they gone? Where did they go?
Et bien, raise your berets
To those v1 days.

...I feel like I'm slowly going insane...

[Dr. Freeman]

I haven't even read the parody yet and I love it. I used to watch that musical all the time when I was younger.

[MusashiAA]

A song dedicated to v1 days of old, and not a single mention of the godtierness Napalm Bomb was?



















What?

[Orange juice :l]

I miss Pink Starfish.

[xColdxFusionx]

It's hard to come up with stuff for everything when you're working with a set rhythm.

Also this was made two nights ago while I was lying in bed.

[Korby]

If you were a real man, you would have made an SGC song  
I'll listen to it soon

[Solar Equinox]

I remember these days, well done lyrics ColdxFusion.
It's better than most songs on the radio then again anything is

[Hallan Parva]

Korby, I don't think Coldy was man enough to even handle the SGC days. I doubt he was even around then.

Anyways, you're right. I miss those days, and I really hope there's a way to bring them back somehow.

[xColdxFusionx]

I doubt he was even around then.

I was around then. But 4 stages and 10 weapons doesn't give you much to talk about, now does it?

[Magnet Dood]

Bah. I came around in v1c/d, so I kinda remember those days. I don't remember seeing as much tension around here with everyone as I do now. The game was still fun...

But v2 isn't all bad! I mean, the MM7 stuff is all pretty cool!

[Proto Man]

Well xCxFx, I salute you for making a tribute to the good ol' days. I wish something as golden as those times could've lasted.  But remember: "Nothing gold can stay."

[Ceridran]

OOOOHHHHHH...

That's why gold tools deplete so fast.

[Laggy Blazko]

That's why gold tools deplete so fast.

I ROLF'd

Personally I'm ok with these days. Some people isn't as nice as before (I think I wasn't very nice then or now) but most are still nicer than other games' players.
Also we have more mods now .  I'm not a fan of vanilla DM, but when I join it I usually don't leave too soon.

[Ceridran]

Okay, someone host a V1A server.

now.

[Mendez]

10 weapons

NO. I could swear there was 13. No shield weapons though, so you really had to dodge those projectiles.
Having said that, I'm gonna say what some of the guys have been saying and write that SGC was where it was at. No way you could replicate the brotherly love that was between us. Given, that was love only shared between the IRWC, but still.
