1/15/09: The 15 chapters are finally DONE. Holy brown cows, that took alot longer than it needed to. Ah, the life of a procrastinating fanfiction writer.
I just wanted to say that, even though plenty more than 15 chapters is written...I highly doubt I'll ever post all of it on this site. In fact, this site's probably getting abandoned right now. As of this moment, OAM2 is in horrible shape as it is, and I'm understandably more worried about that than I am this.
Though it's not likely, if I ever do get around to posting anything else...You're probably going to get all of it. At once. As is. I don't really feel like running through things just to italicize random bits anymore, what are the odds that I'm going to want to split everything into seperate chapters?
Anyway, I'm talking too much. Anybody who wants a full-fledged nostalgia trip of mediocrity, please enjoy the site as it is.

Did you find yourself incredibly bored one day, and decided, "Hm...I could really go for a great Pokémon fanfiction right about now!" I sure have. So off to fanfiction.net we go. Did you happen to come across some shmuck on there called Ionuneos? Don't worry if you haven't; he blends in with the rest of the 10,000+ authors on that IQ-draining site.

Well, for better or worse, that's me and I'm him. I got this rad story called It Takes a Genius up, and it's like, rad and stuff. So fast forward 26 chapters, 3 months, and an awesome Pikachu, and we find ourselves in dire need of a sequel. Never fear, my friends! My name is Ionuneos, single-most-misspelled author on the site, and I always have a plan!

And then this crap was born. Only a Madman, or as it's been dubbed, "OAM1," was my first shot at a sequel. It did not end well. It's hard to describe why. I can't really say that it had alot of filler. Because, to be filler, there needs to be a plot in the first place.

If you haven't noticed, to me, personally, this is one of those stories that's so bad, you can't help but laugh at it. However, I really do have to give credit; I had alot of fun writing it originally (it was the reading part that didn't turn out that well), and as shocking as it sounds, it was actually pretty popular, considering everything. However, there was, without a doubt...problems with it, and when I started asking around, people agreed with that. And thus, "OAM2," a virtually new sequel to ITAG, was born. As of me writing this, the story's still in an incredibly early stage, but we'll see how long that lasts.

And here I am, talking too much. OAM2 isn't what this site's about. Yes, as what's been implied, this site is merely a dump for OAM1, since I can't really have it side-by-side with the true predecessor to ITAG. Please forgive me, anybody that actually wanted to use this domain name. And I can see why you would, too.

In conclusion, uhm..."enjoy" the now-pretty-much-lost OAM. As of right now, I'll just post the 15 chapters of it that actually made it on FF.net before I deleted it. When will I tack on more? ...I dunno. When I get around to it.

Oh, just three more happenin' things.
1) If the truth be told, I just can't be bothered to fix spelling/grammatical mistakes, which I know exist. Though I may one day get around to doing it, as of right now, every time said-word is mentioned, it'll always be "Pokemon," without the cool line thing over the 'e.' Yéah.
2) Alright, here's the deal. I forgot what pretty much every single chapter was called. I could take a shot at most of them, but it'd look kinda bad if I only had the Chapter titles for some of them. If any of you with an awesome memory could run down a list for me, that'd be just groovy.
4) Even though I'ma trying, if I miss a "thought" (in other words, pretty much anything in italics), forgive me. I'm just winging through them, so I wouldn't be surprised if I passed a few.
