The Idea

One day, Megami33 had some of her good friends come over. Said friends included KrisRix, Roll002, MaxSkate2001, and WhipofAlchemy. They were all sitting about in Megami33's ~~dungeon~~ basement, engaging in general asshat-ery.
No one really knows just how the idea came up - maybe it was inspiration from LittleKuriboh; maybe it was Roll002's unhealthy obsession with Sailor Moon; maybe it was the crackpipe KrisRix was passing around the room...

The real story is unknown even to the creators. However, one thing is certain.
The second the idea was brought up, MaxSkate2001 whipped the DVDs for Season 1 out of thin air. His ability to reach into an interdimensional pocket in space to pull out those disks was truly a work of grace.

It was either that, or he brought them over from his house a week later. But we like to stick with the interdimensional story - it has a nice ring to it.

From that moment on, none of their lives would be the same.

The Method

The entire gang meets every Sunday to do work on the series. Unless MaxSkate2001 has better things to do (read: school), or unless Roll002 pretends he has a life outside of Megami33's basement (further referred to as The Place Where It Happens).Other mishaps in the schedule have occurred here and there, but let it be known that none of them were ever KrisRix's fault.

Throughout the project, the initial Faggy Five gained a sixth member, Judgement915. His contributions to the series include the voice of the Windows Vista Intelligence System and his constant desire to touch breakable objects.

The session begins with tomfoolery and many jokes on everyone's behalf (most commonly dished out by KrisRix, to everyone's dismay). After much procastination, Step One begins.

Step One consists of watching the episode. It is set up so that the episode plays on one half of Megami33's computer screen, and the other half is designated to a text document. KrisRix types away ideas and funny one-liners that are shouted out by each member during the viewing. At the end of each scene, the video is paused, and the gang finalizes that scene's script (they do not edit afterward because they are too good for such nonsensical wastes of time). Then they move on to the next scene.

Step Two is when the recording happens. Megami33 opens The Program That Records the Talkies (to which some users referr to as Garage Band) and let's it start rolling. The cast go through their lines scene by scene. Roll002's lines take the longest to get done, but it is because of this that he is a valuable asset to the blooper reels.

Step Three is where the cast departs from The Place Where It Happens until the next Sunday. This leaves Megami33 to her own devices. Throughout the week, she extracts the useable recorded lines, and edits the episodes to get the clips needed. Then she has the ever laborious task of matching mouth flaps, and completely revamping scenes when KrisRix scripts bits with no regard to anything whatsoever. She also adds sound effects, background music, and insert songs (you love 'em, or you hate 'em).

Step Four is when the gang comes back the next week and ask to see the finished episode. Step Four usually ends in Megami33 not having it entirely completed, and the cast ragging on her for being a lazy slob. Little do they know that Megami33 can only edit during the day. Because... at night... ~~she lives a life of danger and alternate identities~~ she sleeps.
