Gather 'round children, for I am about to tell the most epic tale in Asda lore. It all started when....
[cue harp music as the flashback begins]
One Day, in MF...Remi party members: Man this double exp weekend is insane....We've been in this same channel for over 24 hours so no one takes it.
*clan chat*
Mer: I just bought something weird for 2m. >_>
Party: lol, what is it?
Mer: Punchrat ears. ~_~ It says it's a unique item. <_<
Party: Like....ears??
Mer: Yuh. @_@
Party: COME SHOW US!!
[after relogging to the gate]
Party: MERRRRRRRR!!!!! SHOW US!!!
Mer: >_>
Party: C'monnnnn, put them on already!!
Mer:
[10 minutes later :P]
Mer: >_> Ok.
[Merly equips the helm and everyone gets a popup error]
Party:
LOLOLOLOL!!!! YOU HAVE NO HAIR!!!
Mer: It's because there's no image file yet. >_>
Party: So....it's kinda like the pheonix bug?
Mer: >_>
Party:
<---the hatching of an evil plot
Everybody: OMFG LET'S GO TO ALPEN AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS!!!!!!!!!!
[heading to Alpen]
In Alpen 1Miz: Merly, party me so I can trace your path of destruction.
(watches Mer's green dot move from the market over to Ella)
Miz: lol, ok guys, he's almo..........................................................
[Merly comes into sight and everyone within view gets the error message, causing all of Alpen 1 to instantly freeze and dc]
Server:
Alpen 1: Post-Mass DCCitizens: *rabblerabblerabble* WTH WAS THAT???
Remi:
OMG THAT WAS HILARIOUS!!!!!!! MERLY JUST DC'D ALPEN!!!!!!!!!!
Mer: >_> <_<
Remi: OK. We CANNOT tell anyone about this!
Merly is now our weapon of mass destruction.
Clannie: I wonder if we can DC the people that try to steal inner square in MF....?
Remi:
Dave: (on xfire) Guys! Stop talking about it in Asda. They can monitor chat you know...
Remi: Then let's make a codename.
Clannie: How about.....Project Kitty?
Author's Note: lolol Kitty...you dc so much, we luff you!Remi: YES!
[heading back to MF]
Later in MF...Lame Other Party: [running past us to inner square] We're taking inner, kthxbai.
Remi Party: MERRR!!! You know what needs to be done!
Mer: Ok. >_>
Party: OK, now everyone stay away from Mer, got it?
[Merly runs up ahead into their line of sight]
Kate: (tralalalala...I wasn't listening so I'm gonna follow Merly~!)
Lame Party:
Kate:
Mer: They're gone. >_>
Party:
lololol, Kate DC'd too!!!
Mer: <_<
[Remi party runs ahead to take back what was rightfully ours]
EpilogueDue to the flood of DQAs and Asda forum posts that appeared in the wake of the Alpen disaster, the image file for the punchrat helm was added shortly thereafter. Merly was no longer able to DC entire channels at, literally, the drop of a hat. More and more unique helms started showing up after that, but we will all carry the memory of that first set of punchie ears in our hearts forever.
-THE END-
