DYOS 11- The Lost Episode About IOT 2

Description

As some of you know, I was one of the original CFC'ers involved in the craziness that eventually became Imperium Offtopicum. Though I wasn't an active player in very many after the first two or three after it became a thing, I did continue following it for a while, either watching the madness unfolding in the threads or seeing my fellow DYOS'ers, mainly El-Thorvaldo and GenSamus, describe in comic format. That and watching so much funny material come out of the early IOT's eventually inspired me to write my own comic making fun of IOT, which ended up becoming this rather lengthy summary of the first half of IOT II.

In the years since, I'd managed to forget this comic existed, and it seems that at some point it was deleted from DYOS 11 by the Mods (I can only assume they didn't approve of my characterization of Domination3000, though I insist it was spot-on for the way he was acting in that thread- Dommy was always kind of a dick, but in 2010, the first few months after he joined CFC, his dickery was on a whole other level). I recently remembered it and upon finding it was gone from CFC, I figured I should probably re-upload it here for your viewing pleasure, after digging through a couple of my old computers trying to find where I'd left the damn thing.

It, along with a few of the other comics we wrote back in the early days of IOT, give a nice picture of just what kind of silly fun mixed with a couple of total assholes those days were. I remember it somewhat fondly, though it's sad to contrast the early era of IOT with what it has become in the years since, for reasons others have already covered in far more detail than I ever could. It's also kind of sad to remember just how much of a dick Domination was, while also funny that he gave us so much material to lampoon, and a bit of relief that he's long gone from CFC.

I kind of wish I'd waited a little longer to include some of the later things that happened in IOT II, like my overthrowing of Domination's fascist regime in Argentina when he was banned (which, in his early days at CFC, happened about once every two weeks), or the nukes, or the 28316293716293716293 other World Wars that happened in that thread and ended as quickly as they started on account of Dommy getting banned for something outside the game just about every time he started to stir the pot too much. If nothing else, I wish I'd managed to at some point managed to get Dommy's legendary "Muahahaha you thought HITLER was bad!" quote in this or some other comic at some point.

Holy crap, such a blast from the past. Reminds me why I've stopped playing a long while ago until recently.
