Greetings!!!

Also, I've been making a LOT of changes and additions.. I'll probably post
another release in a day or three.. Depends on how many requests I get, and
how much I finish on it.

Hey, by all means, finish it!

Double for me. ;)

I'd like to take this moment to thank everyone for the support they've given
me, and the help I've received. I'd honestly expected a rather harsh
response to my first posting.. I'm glad to say I didn't, and that instead, I
received help, ideas, suggestions, and encouragement.

It has some interesting ideas in it, that's for sure.

First postings are usually not bad I suppose. And this IS the ffml. B>

WWolf-- You introduced me to the irc channel #ranma!, and the fanfic ML..
I've been here since the beginning, and I'm glad to say I've made many
friends during my stay here, not least of all you.

All hail the Master of the FFML!!  ^_^

Hail! Hail, to the wascally wolf! B>

Hitomi-- Your fanfics are some of the best I've read, and your proofreading
is excellent. I have nothing but respect for you.

Now getting her to admit it is another story altogether. (Please no, Hit. )

Megazone & Gryphon-- Undocumented Features... it's truly the father and
mother of many of the modern fanfics, even my own. You guys are truly
genious. Your work on RAAS has also done a lot of good for the Otaku of the
world. I'm certain I speak for everyone in the world when I say.. Thank you
guys!

Boy, Zoner and Gryph really have a lot to answer for, don't they?  ;)

Big time. I'm still waiting for more UF titles! ;)

SkyKnight-- No way I'd forget you, friend. Your fanfic, BGZ, has proven to
be a legend in its own right. I hope that someday I am able to write as
well. For now, I'll study your works and continue to write. I respect you
completely, and am honored to have had a chance to work with you.

A legend?!  Oh Good Grief!!!!  *Turns bright red*  You're making me sound
like I'm up there with the Illiad and the Odyssey.  I try hard, that's all I
can say.

Heh, heh, heh. ^_^

Twister-- Twisted Path.. a truly unique view of the chaos of Ranma 1/2. Your
fanfics, ideas, and concepts have influenced me much as SkyKnight's did. You
both have a lot in common, and scary enough, I see myself being like the two
of you in many ways. I respect you and your work. I'm honored to have known

you.

That's scary...three people with the same characteristics...including
 the puns.  ^_^

My turn. *blush* There. But do you REALLY want to be counted in us two's 
company ;) Hehe.
 > 

And.. everyone else who's read, helped, or existed. Without you, I wouldn't
be here.

That's what the ML is for.  ^_^

Seconded! I may not be a constant poster but I do read and interject the 
odd comment. I shall wait for thy next bit. ;)

Twister.
