August, 2001

Comments:
August 7th 2001, marked the first day of the release of X-Men vs. Street Fighter to the public. The site's two proprietors, TMyApp and leftyfb, both had initial success within days. TMyApp primarily created the site while leftyfb provided the webspace. August proved to be one of the most hectic months for TMyApp especially, who was stuck fixing a seemingly endless stream of bugs. Near late August, TarkanX began his dojo (training school) where he trained respected members such as Inclusive and Elena.

September, 2001

Comments:
In September xmvssf (online) was still a new site and traffic was starting to increase a bit. In early September, the original helpers were released (Sentinel, Guile, Venom, Blanka). Also in early September, ewalk organized the famous Ryu's Drunken Brawl private tournament. By mid-September, the first X-Men vs. Street Fighter (online) fan site was created by Randraco. By late September, many members had started fan sites dedicated to X-Men vs. Street Fighter (online) including, Warmor, TarkanX, Mr. Grim, and Johny Blaze (of which Warmor's is the only still in existence). By late September, several clans were emerging (although Black Dragons was the only recognized clan). Most didn't last very long and TarkanX soon earned the reputation as the "clan destroyer" for his many attempts and success at stopping clans from forming before they got off the ground.

Early January, TOC II was hosted and manontherun won (although he did not defeat TarkanX for the prize). Early to mid-January, Senshukentaki launched the clan section of the forum which was soon followed by a "clan craze". Some of the first clans to begin (and still are all still currently active) were the SMASHERS!!! lead by Selvin, the Shotokan Masters led by slk_rik, and the Shounetsujigoku clan lead by Onslaught. In late January, due to high demand, the site recorder was added.

February, 2002

Comments:
February could best be described as a time of decline in action among the xmvssf (online) community. Although not much happened, error800 was fixed which had kept many users from accessing their accounts. Infinite supers were also fixed. Zing79 soon began registration for TOC III and by late February fear_tetsuo had won but was disqualified a week later for telling Stealth_Dragon the password for DS's clan forum who he thought was in the clan. TarkanX became the champion once again, this time by default.

In March, as in February, not much happened. No large private tournaments were played, nor were any huge updates made to the site.

Comments:
May was a very busy month in the community and included the starting of many tournaments, the introduction of artificial intelligence, a new official forum, and concluded the wait for a new character in the X-Men vs. Street Fighter (online). By early to mid-May, TMyApp had announced the coming of NOTS (Night of the Sentinels). Only days later, when few showed up for the preliminary round in SOF, the tournament was cancelled. Also in mid-May, Senshukentaki's account was suspended due to too much traffic. Only days after Senshukentaki went down, NOTS fell upon xmvssf and AI (artificial intelligence) was introduced as well as the fourth character to be introduced, Sentinel.
