I am Terraptus, former chief of chao. Songs have been sung, tales have been told, and they even made these awesome little teal chickens for me...
I joined chao in 2007. I started playing cha starting with 1.6 My old build used to use farseer back in those days. I was trained by eyepeonyou who is currently chao_peonyou. I was always (and still am) searching for the strongest build. I rarely ever play a wc3 game other than cha. Over 6 years ago, I used to play tree tag, diablo duel, anime arena, and angel arena. Shortly before I found cha, I played footmen frenzy for a little while. There is one other game I will still play other than cha,(missile war) but, I am disappointed when there is lots of lag while massive volleys of missiles are launched.
When I first found chao, I was introduced by a strong player named matto(somethingrather) He was a shaman at the time and the clan was basically dead. Me, nightelfs, and one other guy got into the clan at the same time. (We had planned to create our own clan, but, did not have enough people.) With no active members to compete with, I ascended to shaman virtually effortlessly. From there, my friends and I began to build the clan over again. Eventually I was able to host games as well and that improved my cha skill. (because i could play cha whenever i wanted and not just when someone hosted it) Another strong player back then was invaled. He became a shaman too and him and querty didn't get along very well. (this was back when querty was actually a noobie to the clan)
Sometime after i joined chao, I encountered eyepeonyou and defeated him in a public game. I didn't have much trouble with him because he was testing a build. Then he challenged me to a 1v1 and actually beat me. He not only beat me, but, he beat me rather badly. After loosing to him, I told him about imda_winnerchao (chao's chief at the time) and how strong he was at cha. Eyepeonyou eventually had a 1v1 with imda and i was able to convince him to join the clan. From there on out, he trained me until I could play like a super-pro. Peon and I don't spar much these days since I have been on break from cha for a while. Eventually, Lab joined chao, set up chao.co.nr (the other forum), and started to work on cha.
All of the old players have moved on except for me, imda, iron, peonyou, querty, and some of the grunts.
I was the one who set up the rules for the first tournament. The process took hours and many extra posts. I set up all the brackets too. I redid the rules for another tournament we did a while back and am let Glorn manage the brackets.
I specialize in 1v1s on normal settings or extreme creep spawn. I dislike random due to the possibility of a bad build. I love to 1v1 challenging players, but, I will 1v1 almost anyone who asks me. In every game I play, I am listening to music from either s.s.h., ocremix.org, or other music that I have. Recently, my computer has been lagging in games and i get lag spikes that freeze my screen for up to about 12 seconds at a time while things are still going on in the game.
