AG Affiliation
mr_boomba was forcefully recruited into TBC by megaG. mr_boomba's cousin, known as "stickyrice," was already in TBC. stickyrice was the one who introduced mr_boomba to CoC and taught him how to play. he demanded that mr_boomba join him and apply to TBC. This would not be the way that mr_boomba was recruited, however.
mr_boomba simply logged into the lobby one day and noticed TBC by his name. mr_boomba questioned how this was possible. The only explanation that he received was "TBC is the answer to most problems in life." This is an infamous Paulie quote. Of course it was later determined that mr_boomba indeed had no choice in the matter and would have been made TBC regardless.
mr_boomba has actually not been in TBC for his entire CoC career. He joined KFG before he took a 3 year hiatus from the game. To that extent, he has technically been in KFG longer than he has been in TBC. He did not, however, play a single game when he was in KFG. He knew he would be gone from the game and joined only to tease TJC_Erik. mr_boomba was relieved of MP duties due to his long absence.
mr_boomba has since remained in TBC throughout his comeback to Call of Combat. It is assumed that he was quickly threatened to reapply shortly after he made his return. He will remain in TBC until he is offered a large sum of money or shu8man removes him from the AG (which is more likely).
Name Origins
mr_boomba's name is the comedic result of a Filipino translation of a Korean animation character from www.boombastick.net. While the animation character's name of Mr. Boomba is a shorten version of boombastick (which is a play on the word bombastic), the Filipino translation of the word is a colloquialism for pornography. In short, mr_boomba is known as mr_porn to those who know the translation. This both incites discussions and giggles when discovered by unwary CoC players.
MP
At the time of his recruitment into the MP staff, mr_boomba was accepted alongside of frond (now Paulie). During this time, mr_boomba was usually the only late night MP on staff. He could be seen arguing late night with kornyfo (now Artemus) which usually ended with a kick or ban. Of course, this left mr_boomba very lonely at times as the number of people logged into the lobby averaged 7. It was during his time as MP that he began his series of namechanges.
Name Changes
mr_boomba is known to have frequent name changes, most of which are not listed under the lobby's former names check. In the early days of namechanges, mr_boomba would change his name on a daily basis. He usually kept the name boomba, only adding to it to so that people would easily recognize him. His first name was indeed mr_boomba, not king_boomba as the lobby suggests. He is affectionately called "boomie," "boomy," "booms," "the good doctor," "boomblar," and "bro-ski."
Entrance
Probably known more for his lobby entrances than his name changes, mr_boomba consistently enters the lobby uttering the phrase "boom boom boom boom." While this caused confusion to some when he initially returned from his 3 year hiatus, the "booms" actually result from a flaw in the older versions of the CoC lobby. While users would be logged into the lobby, the lobby would not show any text until the user sent a message in the lobby. Consequently, many users would type random letters such as "asd" or "qwerty" when logging into the lobby. Eventually, mr_boomba's four booms became a signal of greeting or warning to those in the lobby long after the lobby was fixed.
In more recent times, it has become a competition amongst some lobby users to try and beat mr_boomba at typing out his "booms." This has led to mr_boomba to be kicked from the lobby randomly and unsuspectingly log back in to a wild barrage of "booms." While some have succeeded through devious means, it is extremely hard to get the "booms" out before mr_boomba because mr_boomba's computer does indeed suck and lags while loading the lobby. This allows mr_boomba ample time to type out his catchphrase. It is rumored that there are some who lie in wait with "boom boom boom boom" already typed out, biding their time until he logs into the lobby.
Other catch phrases that mr_boomba is known to use include: "..." and "how about you exercise some shut the [expletive withheld] up?"
The Conspiracy Against mr_boomba
At some point mr_boomba created a post in the "Shooting Range" section of the CoC forums to test his signature. However, it did not stay as a test post for long. Others, compelled by curiousity, began posting nonesense in the thread. Noteable contributions were made by DeniedAxcess, Dr_Dwayne_Switzer, Philster_d, FryGuy, TJC_Erik, and Paulie. The thread was filled with countless stories, random banter, and odd pictures. Over the course of 3 months the post grew to 100 pages. Around this time MP staff began to "hide" the post. The post would be moved to other sections such as "Report a Bug" or "First Impressions." Whether this was done out of spite or pure jealousy was never confirmed. Regardless, the post gained popularity and grew exponentially adding another 20 pages in less than 2 weeks. Unfortunately, the post disappeared again. Countless searches of each forum were conducted by mr_boomba and others only to find that the post had been deleted. The official reason given was that it was deleted to reduce mr_boomba's post count. The devious plot worked and mr_boomba's post count was nearly cut in half.
That did not dissuade mr_boomba and his fellow forum friends. They rebuilt the post to near its former glory. The post reached over 65 pages until it was deleted once again. Ever the persistant poster, mr_boomba began his post once again only to find the next day that there were several copycat posts. Each poster wanted the glory of the longest post for themselves. Some post grew quite large, while others died off quickly. However, the golden age of the longest post had passed on and no post has yet to reach the magnitude of the original.
