User:ChromastoneandTabby/History

 2010: The Two-In-One User - A joint account between a kid going by Chromastone and his sister going as Tabby is created, called (rather uncreatively) ChromastoneandTabby. - Chromastone joins BTFF and creates Tech 10: Ultimatrix Unleashed, the wiki's first journal-styled fanfic.

- He holds the amateur Alien creation contest, which is won by Omi.

- Ultimatrix Unleashed concludes its run near the end of the year.

- Chromastone takes part in The Colossal Christmas Crossover with Tech, bridging the events between Ultimatrix Unleashed and his next series.

- Tabby gradually stops using the joint account and creates her own, leading Chromastone to adopt the full ChromastoneandTabby account name.

  2011: The Alien Animal Kingdom  - ChromastoneandTabby creates Tech 10: Combalien Evolution, building on Ultimatrix Unleashed's success in a more episodic, better laid-out format. - Inspired by recently playing Pokemon for the first time, he begins pumping out aliens for Combalien Evolution based on various odd themes, primarily animals.

- He opens a short-lived art service that gets only one request before being forgotten about by the wiki.

- After seven episodes of Ultimatrix Unleashed, he gets bored with the project and attempts to alleviate this boredom with spin-off projects such as Herc the Merc, which ends up being a flop.

- ChromastoneandTabby eventually abandons his projects, silently marking them down as cancelled and ending production on them.

 2012: Blasting Off of the Wiki - ChromastoneandTabby decides to reboot Tech 10 so he can start over with a fresh slate, creating Tech 10: Rebooted at the beginning of 2012. - He creates several aliens for Rebooted and a couple free-use aliens over the year.

- The majority of 2012 is spent off-wiki as real life domestic issues rear their ugly head.

- Rebooted finally gets its first episode near the end of the year.

 2013: Nothing But Filler - ChromastoneandTabby goes the entirety of 2013 without writing any new episodes. - He spends the majority of his time on the wiki creating new pages for Rebooted's aliens and characters and touching up existing pages a bit.

- The nickname CaT is initially coined by Jack in June, but doesn't catch on as anything but a one-time joke.

- ChromastoneandTabby eventually leaves the wiki entirely in July, abandoning his current (barely worked-on) projects.

 2014: A Warring Return - ChromastoneandTabby comes to the conclusion that he should pursue writing as a talent and, realizing he already has an established presence to practice with, returns to the wiki. - Inspired by new interests such as Gurren Lagann, he starts off the year with a new series separate from Tech 10 called Not Applicable, whose over-the-top atmosphere and novel premise attracts several readers right off the bat.

- Taking notice of the successes of other users such as Sci and Paper, CaT makes it his goal to rise to the top and join the ranks of the most popular users of the wiki.

- Work on the Not Applicable RPG begins, with the demo being the wiki's first playable video game. - He begins work on Rebooted once more, changing the premise and declaring the outdated first version non-canon.

- He opens up CaT's Alien Art Shop, which receives only two requests before being largely forgotten about.

- The nickname CaT is brought up in a joke by Ahmad, and this time, the nickname sticks, leading to the creation of ChromastoneandTabby's modern CaT persona and mascot.

- Work on the newly-dubbed CaT's projects begins to dwindle as his now-diagnosed depression gradually worsens.

 2015: Restarting All Engines - CaT's productivity keeps dropping, and after a seemingly final two-parter for Rebooted in February, it seems as if CaT's writing career is all but dead.

- He spends the first half of the year primarily touching up his pages and interacting with the community.

- He opens up CaT's Music Shop in May, with the service becoming an instant success.

- Thanks to months of therapy and new medication, CaT's depression becomes manageable and he begins writing new episodes again. - He writes several guides to help people on the wiki with their writing, characters, and alien creation.

- Rebooted and Not Applicable both end, making them CaT's first completed series since 2010.

- CaT begins preliminary work on a sequel to Rebooted. - In October, CaT's Alien Art Shop is rediscovered by the wiki, resulting in both it and him exploding in popularity. This leads to the creation of CaT's Human Art Shop in November.

- CaT's popularity is further boosted by the creation of CaT Reviews!, which is written in a similar style to his series of guides.

- Near the end of the year, CaT begins preparations for the creation of the ultimate crossover game, BTFF RPG. Despite doubts from some of the community that the project would come to fruition, CaT gains enough support to get development underway.

 2016: Bad Year, Nice Look - CaT starts off the year with the debut of Tech 10: Star Spirit, a sequel to Rebooted meant to cap off the Tech 10 franchise as a whole.

- He overcomes his social anxiety enough to join chat for the first time, making an effort to be friends with everyone.

- The Tech 10 Renovation Project begins, with the intent of turning Ultimatrix Unleashed and Combalien Evolution into more respectable pieces of fiction.

- The BTFF RPG is finished and released in February to the shock of the entire wiki.

- Season 1 of Star Spirit concludes in April.

- The CaT Gazette starts in mid-April, going on to become the longest-running newsletter on the wiki.

- Drama in late April results in Rob quitting the wiki and dumping all the various art and codework CaT had done for him, resulting in heightened tensions between the two.

- Rob comes back after not too long and CaT cautiously starts working with him again.

- Season 2 of Star Spirit airs over the summer.

- Toon is demoted in July and CaT is promoted to the position of Admin and later Crat in his place.

- CaT creates and hosts the wiki's first Chain of Gifts.

- CaT begins renovating the wiki's badges.

- In October, Rob gets banned from the wiki for a couple months due to a whole host of varying reasons. He quits his series and throws away all of CaT's work again out of spite, resulting in CaT dropping his overly friendly, brown-nosing attitude and becoming a lot more bitter.

- CaT uses the page of Rob's series he abandoned, Mack 10, to create a new meta series parodying various tropes of BTFF.

- CaT runs the Spooktober Horror Contest.

- The Spooktober RPG is released. Very few people play it, ultimately resulting in CaT cancelling future RPG installments.

- Several of CaT's creations make it to the finals of the Featured Everything of the Year voting.

 2017: The Game of Life - CaT gets a job at a local school, resulting in a drop in his writing output.

- He updates the wiki several times with numerous scripts, making the site more modernized and easier to use.

- CaT begins work on a movie retelling of the Not Applicable miniseries designed to update it to modern standards and help it tie more smoothly into Star Spirit.

- A miniature existential crisis results in CaT shutting down most of his projects, shifting his focus to completing his now barely-read Tech 10 franchise so he can move on to other things.

- With a small, nonvocal readership on his main projects and feedback on his art slowing to nearly nothing, CaT begins trying to find a way to restoke interest in his work. Time will tell if he can succeed.
