::In the QPM::

Kang (The Conqueror): What are all of these Community Managers doing here?
Wong: These people were slowly popping up here, but it’s heavily increased in the past few weeks
Player: ::Points at one of them:: I know that guy. His name is Victor
Kang (The Conqueror): Victor??
Player: ::Approaches Victor:: You’re the Community Manager that brought me to the MPQ meetings, right?
Community Manager – Victor Yes.. yes I am
Player: How did you get here? Why are all of you here?
Community Manager – Victor We are here because the Kangs sent us here.. we just wanted to communicate to the players.. but they.. they didn’t like that
Kang (The Conqueror): Hahahaha.. you’re just like me!
Player: What do you mean?
Community Manager – Kang (Victor Timely) I, too, am a Kang..
Gambit: Enough chitchat, how do we get out of here?
Community Manager – Kang (Victor Timely) I can get you to the Kangs, but I only have enough power to send three of you
Wong: You three go. I’ll wait here
Player: Wong.. the Glaive.. how do I use it?
Wong: I told you before.. you will know, when you know ::Sends himself Away::
Kang (The Conqueror): Let’s go!

::Meanwhile at the Meeting.. ::

Director: Hello team. As you know, we saved a ton money by not replacing our Community Manager
Developer 2: Sir, I thought I saw on the Forums that we announced a new Community Manager..
CFO: Eh.. we just said that to give the players some hope. We need to focus on making money
Director: And I got rid of that stupid monthly calendar of events
CFO: I have an easier time viewing all the spreadsheets of the money we’re making from new Support chain offers!
Developer 1: Sir, don’t you think the players will be upset when they notice there’s no updated news. Plus my team still does not have the time to look into all the various bugs!
CFO: No. Between laying off the Community Manager and the Quality Testing team, we’re still making a ton of money!
Developer 2: It looks like the players are upset about the rebalance we gave Nick Fury. I personally think the new Yellow makes more sense. It gives flexibility of what part of the yellow you want to use, instead of just doing everything at once.
Developer 1: Agreed. It was too slow spending 10AP. Now you can spend a low 6AP to unleash a small part, but if you want more, it’ll only take an additional 20AP in various colors to do the same thing as before. It is so much better!
Director: That actually sounds horrible.. you guys cannot be serious, right?
Developer 2: We are very seri.. ::Bursts out laughing:: I’m sorry I cannot hold it in any longer!

::Everyone begins to laugh::

CFO: ::Laughing loudly!:: What a time to be alive!

::Loud explosion erupts!::

Director – Kang (Immortus): ::Begins to shine blue:: What was that?!?!

::The Player walks in with Gambit and Kang (The Conqueror)::

CFO – Kang (Scarlet Centurion): How is this possible?
Kang (The Conqueror): You could not live with your own failure. Where did that bring you? Back to me. You thought by eliminating me that you would thrive. As long as the players remember what was, there will always be those that are unable to accept what can be. The players will resist
Director – Kang (Immortus): Blah blah blah.. I’ll give the players what they want!

::Chasm enters the room and stuns the group::

Player: How is he here?
Developer 1 – Kang (Rama-Tut): Chasm can do whatever he wants!
Kang (The Conqueror): Come on Gambit! Don’t just stand there. Let’s get him!
Gambit: You don’t have to tell me twice! ::Throws card at Chasm::

::X-Men Original Series music plays. Back-and-forth fighting commences::

Chasm: ::Surrounded by the abyss, drains Gambit’s AP::
Gambit: Hey! I still got a Full Deck! ::Throws more cards at Chasm::
Kang (The Conqueror): This is over! ::Destroys Chasm::
Developer 2 – Kang (Koon): You fools! You cannot simply destroy Chasm!

::Chasm revives and stuns the group::

Kang (The Conqueror): ::Unstuns and sends Chasm Away::
Gambit: Bye bye Chasm!
Kang (The Conqueror): Enough of your games! All your base are belong to us!
Director – Kang (Immortus): Hahahaha! I have plenty of games.. survivor games actually

::Waves upon waves of Chasms appear!::

Kang (The Conqueror): We can do thi.. ::Chasm punches him in the face::
Gambit: Come on! ::Lights a card and throws it at Chasm::
Chasm: ::Catches card and throws it back at Gambit::

::After several moments, the group is all banged-up and dirty looking at the waves of Chasms::

Director – Kang (Immortus): In all my years of conquest, nerfs, and lack of communication, it was never personal. But I’ll tell you now, what I’m about to do to your stubborn, annoying little Forum… I’m gonna enjoy it. Very, very much.
Player: Yep, all kinds of stubborn
CFO – Kang (Scarlet Centurion): We’re thankful. Because now we know what we must do. We will shred this game down to its last dollar! And then with all the money we’ve collected from the players, we will create a new game, teeming with new players that knows not what it has lost but only what has been given. A grateful player base.
Player: Created out of blood
Director – Kang (Immortus): They’re never know it. Because you won’t be alive to tell them..

::Waves of Chasms behind the Kangs::

::A portal opens::

Wong:: Hey Player!

::Wong walks through the portal.. followed shortly by all the previously nerfed characters::

Gambit: How??
Wong: The magic of Supports! Let’s avenge this
Player: ::Looks at all the nerfed characters:: …Assemble!

::Nerfed characters collide with the waves of Chasms::

Player: ::Notices Beast (AOA) amongst the nerfed characters:: Where is Magik? When did Beast become nerfed?
Wong: It was communicated weeks ago. She was buffed and he was nerfed. You’ll also notice Nick Fury over there!
Nick Fury: ::Shoots rapidly at the Chasms:: I HAVE HAD IT WITH THESE MOTHERFING CHASMS IN THIS MOTHERFING GAME
Player: What?? They nerfed Beast and Nick Fury? That makes no sense..
Wong: Actually the Developers said it was a buff, but the majority of the players perceived the rebalances as a nerf..
Player: Are you saying that as long as the players believe a character is nerfed that they can still be transported to the QPM?
Wong: Precisely
Gambit: Did they at least fix petite’s leg?
Wong: No ::Dodges Chasm’s attack and sends himself Away::

::Bishop begins absorbing all the damage and stunning all the Chasms::

Developer 2 – Kang (Koon): Uh oh..
Bishop: ::Looking angry and approaching the Kangs:: You took everything from me!
Director – Kang (Immortus): That was like 3-years ago! ::Shines blue and sends Bishop away::

::The wave of Chasms unstun and destroy Hood::

Gambit: Dang. We needed those two!
Kang (The Conqueror): We can’t stop them. We kill one and one revives. There is no way we can continue to kill three at the same time with the group we have.
Gambit: I cannot generate my powers fast enough.. they keep draining me..
Kang (The Conqueror): This isn’t looking good..
Player: Does anyone have any Team-Ups left?

::Suddenly a new portal opens::

Wong: ::Reappears:: I came with a friend..

::Wolverine (OML) launches out of the portal towards the waves of Chasm::

Wolverine (OML): All right, you Chasm A-holes! In the words of my nerfed friends.. UP YOURSSS!
Kang (The Conqueror): What is he doing??
Wolverine (OML): Ha-ha-ha! Hello, devs! I’m BAAAAAACKKKKKK

::Wolverine unleashes Whale TU’s to destroy the waves of Chasm::

Gambit: We did it!
Player: The Kang Dynasty is over!

::Group cheers in victory!::

Director – Kang (Immortus): You think you won? Hahahaha
CFO – Kang (Scarlet Centurion): Hahahaha! My pockets feel a bit light.. time to boost some sales!
Developer 1 – Kang (Rama-Tut): Working on that “Nerf” we’ve been talking about for months
_::Activates the rebalance of Chasm:: _

::Chasm reappears and stuns the group for two turns with the ability to now steal 5 AP per turn::

Gambit: I haven’t seen a “nerf” this bad since.. well me!
Developer 1 – Kang (Rama-Tut): What do you think of this “nerf”? Bad, right? Mwhahahaha
Player: ::Looks at Wong::
Wong: ::Nods head at the Player::
Player: Actually.. yes! This is bad.. in fact, he’s worse than before!
Developer 1 – Kang (Rama-Tut): Hahah.. wait.. what?
Player: That’s right! Chasm seems nerfed to me!

::Chasm stops moving and begins to fade::

Developer 1 – Kang (Rama-Tut): What is happening?? How are you doing this??
Player: When you fail to communicate to the players, I become the only player with the opinion, therefore, the majority think your “rebalance” is a nerf!
Director – Kang (Immortus): Nooooooooo!!!
CFO – Kang (Scarlet Centurion): My money!!!

::Chasm disappears::

::Group cheers in victory again!::
Gambit: Is it over now?
Kang (The Conqueror): Get ready for the third ending..
Player: What??

::The Kangs begin to merge together::

Player: What is happening?
Kang (The Conqueror): Our greatest fear..

::The Kangs merge into…::

Gambit: Oh my god.. it’s Mega-Kang! They’ve gone from suck to blow..

::Mega-Kang blows blue fire towards the group, sending any character it touches back to QPM::

Gambit: ::Dodges the flames:: Now what? All our help is gone! We cannot defeat this boss with an alliance of three..
Kang (The Conqueror): Player! Your Support!
Player: Is this the moment Wong told me about? ::Grabs the Glaive and the blades open::
Gambit: Whoa!
Player: ::Throws the blade at Mega-Kang::
Mega-Kang: ::Roars in pain as the Glaive slices and returns to the Player::
Kang (The Conqueror): It’s working! Keep throwing it!

::After several throws of the Glaive, Mega-Kang finally falls!::

Player: ::Tries to repeatedly retrieve the Glaive, but it is stuck in Mega-Kang::
Kang (The Conqueror): Don’t worry about that. I’ll take it from here ::Begins to glow blue::

::Everything slowly disappears around Kang.. one by one..::

POST-CREDIT SCENE

Gambit: ::Awakens:: Is it over?
Beast: Gambit! This is no time to take a nap ::Dodges webs::
Gambit: What the.. I thought we won?

::Chasm is running towards the group::

Beast: Chasm has been nerfed so now he’s taking over the QPM! We gotta run!
Gambit: ::Looks around:: Where is the Player?
Beast: Who?

Player: ::Awakens:: Where am I?
Deadpool: Welcome to Deadpool’s Daily Quest!
Player: Whaaaaaaa?
Deadpool: Were you looking for a Behemoth Burrito? Oh, nevermind! You’re just a 1 *!
Player: 1 *? What?
Deadpool: You’re That Guy from That Place! ::Begins to do cartwheels::
Player: ::Notices he is in the MPQ game:: How did I get here???

::The screen zooms out to see Kang (The Conquer) looking down at the Player through his cellphone::

Kang (The Conqueror): Did you think this would be a happy ending? Be careful what you wish for.. ::Seen rubbing the Genie Magic Lamp support:: Mwhahahahahahahahahahaha!

::Screen goes blank::

THE END

Any time you can work in a classic Spaceballs reference (among so many others) you gets likes from me.

Incidentally, is the player getting sucked into the game a reference to ‘Bishop of Battle’? It sure seems like it.

This is fantastic man! I have been here for all of them and it is great that you came back to finish them. Very funny as always.

Hahaha.. I don’t remember who I said this to, but I can probably rewrite the Spaceballs script into MPQ

You need to stick around long another to find out if the player base has been Punk’d.
