WELCOME TO THE FORUMS!
Do I have to do that every time?

 

[humboldt]

Ah thanks For some reason I couldnt find that thread. It appears the mysteries of YUMBO are far greater than I first thought...

Has anybody actually found an explanation to this strange thing?

Didin't look like it in the thread.
People got rowdy, and spammed. So it was closed, and we never learned!

Nope. Warpstorm works at BAG (funny acronym. ), and he hasn't found anything. It's probably an inside joke on a typo for the acronym for "Mind Your Own Business". (Probably typed YMBO).

There was aslo a thing in the credits about an "Elvis Putnam"
Kinda creepy.

You can say are in it, but the thread is closed. If you make a new one TF or a mod'll close it down.

Did you know the King is a King unit in c3c? Easy to find in the units folder!
You's laugh your butt off.

 

[Loaf Warden]

Oh no, not this again. I thought we'd gotten safely past this.

 

[MarineCorps]

Don't worry TF or the mods will kill it if the thread starts to turn into a research project.

Warpstorm just hasn't asked the right people And no it isn't an acronym.

 

[Chieftess]

Still keeping the mystique going, huh, Mere?
