Ah, the front page. Haven't been here in a while.

The lost Epilogue 9 "Tale of the Raven" is up, courtesy of Hunter, thus finishing out Season 1! It would have been up a bit earler (and not by my hands), but it's pretty hard to update a site whose host is down.

In any case... when next you see me, we'll be sporting a new look. See you then!

- Ballade (03/16/2008 (Happy birthday, Hunter!))

We apologize to anyone who were getting 404 errors when they tried to view most of the epilogues in the site. The problem is now fixed. :)

- Enker (01/15/2008)

Long time no see, people. I'm doing small updates this time.

We'll start with good news : we now have an affiliated site ! I wish to thank Rebel and his Code Island Attackers for this ! Head to the Links and click their button - you'll enjoy.

I also updated the Epilogue section, with one of the reasons that got us so busy the last monthes. I'll let you discover what it is, but let me tell you I enjoyed taking part in it...

Well, that's all for now. Will you be able to 'catch' the next update ?

- "Captain" Quint (first update of 2008 ! W00t again !) (01/12/2008)

Woah, I haven't updated in ages! You all were probably worried about us, right? Things got in the way like school and my anticipation for Brawl! (Okay maybe that last part was just an excuse...)

Anyways, we have a new epilogue today. It's a Christmas specia-...what?! You're not surprised? Oh you will be...because the 2nd part of the season finale is up as well! Enjoy and look forward to Season 2!

- Enker (12/25/07)

Sorry for the long delay, school started and half of the Mercenaries were busy with other things. Fortunately, the season 1 finale epilogue's first part is now up. You now be wondering why the 9th epilogue is missing, this is because there's an ep planned for season 1 which takes place before the finale.

Oh by the way, Kayorei and I are redesigning the site in celebration of the new upcoming season. When will it be up? When Season 2 begins of course! That's all for today.

- Enker (09/30/07)

Today we have a new epilogue from Hunter (again!), named "Like a Sentence From 300".

I've revamped the links section of the site. More sites are linked, and WW and the 7M finally has a link button. Oh and yes, we'll make this index page shorter by removing old updates...just let me make a news archive page here on the next update or so, k?

- Enker (08/31/07)

Happy new anniversary for the Seven Mercenaries! In celebration, I've released a new epilogue!

...Yeah, we didn't really do much for the anniversary. (Only Iga knew of the anniversary and only notified me yesterday! Curses!)

- Enker (08/06/07)

That's right, tomorrow's August 6th, 2007, which means that the Seven Mercenaries will have been an official team for a whole 365 days as of tomorrow. Now we're all gonna go celebrate now...or...something...

- Buster Rod (08/05/07)

A week late, curse my ADHD. Anyways, today's update includes a new epilogue done by me and a new 7M member, Magnus. In case none of you have noticed, Stardust has left the team months ago, we've replaced him with Magnus a few weeks later. However, we won't be introducing Magnus' character until Season 2. (Come on, as of now it is a too soon to replace one of the main characters).

- Enker (06/24/2007)

Huh? It's June already? Well, this year has been rather going by quickly. Anyways, it has been a good week since the last epilogue is released. So I've decided to release an epilogue titled "Worst.Plan.Ever.". So now that's 6 epilogues up so far. Expect the next epilogue in 2 weeks! (Also school is almost over! YAY!)

- Enker (06/01/2007)

Hey... since when was Naoshi appointed webmonkey?

Kayorei returns to the site updating scene... with the "long-awaited" Epilogue 5! *confettis* Well... it was long-awaited for those who saw it when I first started writing it. It took a while. So have a peek and learn what can happen when idle minds go astray...

- Ballade (05/25/2007)

I've been feeling sick all week, and since I'm staying home from school, I'm going to update some stuff around. You'll notice that the main part of the update are the new sprites for the news update. Kayorei made the mugshots and I've made the borders for them. I hope you all think they look really good. We worked hard on them. I included the rest of them in the artwork section of the site. Enjoy.

Oh yeah, by the way, incase you didn't noticed, I brought back the updates that were deleted on accident. Hopefully it isn't too much to have on the index...right? Either way, I'm planning to add a little update achives in this site soon. Check back later this month or so for an epilouge update.

- Enker (05/16/2007)

I added 5 more epilogue sprites in the artwork page. Includes Mega Man, Bass, a UN Tank, Red Sniper Joe and another Joe. I also changed the UN Tank's sprite for epilogue 2. Once again, this is just a small update. Epilogue 5 will be out sometime, but definitely not around this week.

- Enker (04/22/2007)

44 sprites and 2 drawings (Done by Me and Kayorei respectively) are uploaded to the artwork section. This means the the section Drawing/Sprites is finally opened. I told ya I was gonna open it this week, did I? :D

- Enker (04/20/2007)

Epilogue 4, Meet the Fatal Five, is finally up! I hope someone is at least excited to see the villain team, especially with that cliffhanger at the end of the second epilogue. Enjoy reading.

As far as the site content goes, I'm also announcing that Iga and I are working on Mega Man Walkthroughs of the Game Boy series. Also, I'm going to open the artwork's section "Drawings/Sprites" sometime next week.

Edit: Ew. I just viewed the site in IE. I noticed there's alot of differences between viewing this site in IE and FireFox. The text is bigger (thus uglier in some areas), the navigation bars are spaced out from each other (wtf), and the sprites' transparent BGs is visible (double WTF). So just to let you all know, this site is best to be viewed in FireFox til we will figure out howto solve this problem.

- Enker (04/12/2007)

Hahahaha! APRIL FOOLS! Yesterday's epilogue was an April Fools joke. Truth to be told, I was gonna release the 3rd epilogue yesterday/the day before but I changed my mind and made an April Fools joke. The real epilogue itself is up. Enjoy!

- Enker (04/2/2007)

Well, I did say Epilogue 3, Troubles in Town, was going to be released "next week" in the last update. So this is definitely not an April Fools joke. ...I was gonna make one but I was too busy with things and have forgotten about it. >_> On the bright side I April fooled someone on MSN so I guess that's good enough for me.

- Enker (04/1/2007)

The remake of the second epilogue is released! Expect the 3rd epilogue next week. Enjoy the new epilogue!

- Enker (03/24/2007)

At last! The first epilogue's remake has been finally released. Sorry for such a long wait. What took us so long was being able to contact some of the team members that were sorta on hiatus. We were waiting for the team's ideas on the character designs. Falling Star is still on hiatus so we don't know where he went, so instead I decided to have the team design his 7M form without telling him, if he wants any changes on the sprite of his 7M form I'll let him tell me. I'm sure he'll be back, it's not like he hasn't done it before.

As you'll notice in the first epilogue. A small number of sprites are missing due to final designs not being done. Luckily they don't have much dialogs and their sprite would only be used in 1 epilogue.

We have Epilogue 2 and 3 nearly ready to be released but I'm not gonna release them til next week or so. It'd be not such a great idea if we were to release them all at once. Every other epilogue are still being written and aren't close to be done yet. Stay tuned for the 2nd epilogue next week!

- Enker (03/17/2007)

We haven't updated in a month. Not to worry though! We're still active on the team...well atleast MOST of us anyways... I've been spriting for days and weeks. I got alot of it done, but unfortunately not enough for the release of the first epilogue...

But the main reason I've updated, despite the lack of new content, is just to let you all know we're still alive and we've been working on the things related to the site. And no, we will definitely not disappear after saying that.

Edit: Once the first few epilogues are released. I'm gonna open up the sprites section (the only content there for now are the epilogue sprites, including the unused ones.)

- Enker (02/24/2007)

Hey people, it's me, Quint ! With the first announced update of 2007 !

Although we're still waiting Naoshi's sprites (but remember, patience is rewarded), I managed to add some works of mine, without screwing the site up that much. If you head to Epilogue Section, you'll find a short story, 7M-related, written by me. Enjoy!

Naoshi Edit: I fixed the site errors. I'll finish up the grammar and spelling errors for the story.

- Quint (first time in the News section ! W00t !) (01/20/2007)

I got a couple of complaints about the width of the layout. I made it with 800x600 resolutions in mind, and while it's not commonly used anymore, I didn't want to have any scrolling inconvenience.

I will admit it did leave a lot of unused space, though.

So we're looking at a wider layout now. It does look better than I was expecting. I'd continue commentary, but there's a terrible pun that's just begging to be said and I don't want to say it for fear of painful death.

- Ballade (12/28/2006)

The progress with the epilogues has been going well. The first 3 are done but what is keeping us from releasing the 1st epilogue is the lack of sprites. You see, I'm trying to be a bit unique by spriting everyone in eps done in an original new sprite style. I have alot done. For now, the only ones seen in the site are the ones here. Not bad, eh?

- Enker (12/27/2006)

Well, with a sudden burst of energy, I felt that I should do something for the site. In turn, I thought, "Why the heck not work on the Contacts page?" so I did. ^_^* Now you can contact us through AIM, MSN, YIM, and Email!

- Buster Rod (12/09/2006)

Some of you may or may not have known about our previous Punk, 2-Dark, being removed from the team. That being said, Shinobu is now our new Punk. His profile is now up in the "Profiles" section.

In other news, Epilogue 1 has finally been re-written, but Naoshi's spriting some original epilogue sprites for the 7M(at least I hope he's spriting).

And look Ballade! I updated without screwing anything up! w00t!

- Buster Rod (11/24/2006)

Upon further discussion with the crew, we've decided the backgrounds in our profiles have to go. A few are subject to rewriting. They may or may not be returning with Epilogue 1.

On another note, I've made a tiny little cosmetic adjustment to a couple of the active buttons.

- Ballade (9/21/2006)

I'm not sure how long it's been up, but we finally fixed the Exit door. We now have a links section, courtesy Quint.

As for Epilogue 1... We're... still... workingonit... -_-*

- Ballade (9/14/2006)

Hey, Naoshi here. My first update, oh joy. >.> Epilogue 1 is removed. Most of the team agreed to rewrite it. We didn't really like how it turned out. Stay tuned!

- Enker (8/28/2006)

Something I should have done from the start has now been finished... Profiles are up under the "Characters" section.

Also, new buttons on the side menu. A convenient "Home" button to take you back here and a "Contact" button, which is another page to add to my to-do list... x_x

- Ballade (8/18/2006)

See? See?! Content!

I should stop that. Anyway, the Artwork section is now open with two movies from Buster Rod! This update was a bit of a joint effort. The art section opening was mine (Ballade's) and the movie page itself is Buster's work.

Now I need to get to work on the "Characters" section... I have everything I need... Just have to get the mess put together. How did I wind up putting the epilogues before the profiles?

- Buster Rod G and Ballade (8/10/2006)

And it's about time. After nearly a month of idle thumb-twiddling on my part, I finally got off my lazy butt and finished the site.

It's still pretty empty, but it's not for lack of construction effort. There's just not a lot of content yet. There will be content! o_o* Okay, I'm done. Insomnia's getting the better of me again.
