Shortly following the formation of The Final Option, one of the team's most colorful characters joined. The undisputed and reigning master of blather, Moose has become nearly everyones most beloved TFO member.

Palaver aside, Moose became an integral part of TFO's early success. His deadly precision with the grenade launcher is now legendary, and sparked the TFO team to many victorys.

Alas however, mitigating factors caused our dear friend to take a leave of absence, becoming a member of two other teams and accepting a leadership role in one. Old flames die hard however, and Moose rejoined the squad he calls home, with a renewed outlook and skills more deadly than before.

Intense loyalty, irrepressible humor, and the gift of gab all make Moose one of TFO's most valuable members, and someone we all can honestly call our friend. When we enter a battle, there are few we would rather have standing beside us. It is with great pride and enormous pleasure that The Final Option recognizes and accepts TFO_Moose into its Hall of Fame.

Some may think that a member is inducted into The Final Option's Hall of Fame by longetivity alone. Nothing could be further from the truth. Some are inducted based on uncompromising loyalty, unparalleled precision, and the relentless pursuit of perfection. All qualities which have catapulted Evolution to the forefront.

Three years after the formation of team, The Final Option secured one of the finest minds, and most outstanding programmers, on the Internet. Evolution, originally known as Phrito, agreed to become a part of our team. Since that day, no one, including its founder, has devoted more hours, energy, and effort in ensuring that TFO became, and remains, the premiere team that it is today. Virtually no decisions, regarding the team, are made without considering his viewpoints. Trial and error have demonstrated that 99.9% of the time, his thoughts to be proven true.

A top level gamer with a world class analytical mind, an amazing ability to foresee the pitfalls of the future, a genius IQ, and an unwavering loyalty to the team, all make this member's induction long overdue.

Slow in coming, but with no less respect, friendship, and gratitude, The Final Option proudly adds TFO_Evolution into its Hall of Fame.

In July of 2003, The Final Option experienced an influx of new members. Among these members was a confident, tactically intelligent, take charge type of member. Apocalypse, from his very first days with TFO, became a natural leader.

When The Final Option decided to begin playing America's Army, began competing on a variety of ladders, and when the team grew in size and additional leadership was needed, Apocalypse never hesitated to step up and accept the challenge of accepting responsiblity. Time and time again, whenever the team was in need of direction, opinion on policy matters, or sometimes when TFO just needed a good kick in the pants, "Apoc" was there, always ready and able to lead the team, accepting the burden with not so much as a complaint.

One would think that this workload would lead to the deterioration of a players skills. Once again, Apoc proved himself to be up to the task, raising his level of play to near elite status, and leading his fellow members by example.

A player with deadly skill, a member with a contagious sense of humor, a leader that our team is proud to call its own, and a true friend, The Final Option proudly admits TFO_Apocalypse into its Hall of Fame.

Joining The Final Option over three years ago, was one of the most affable, honest, and very simply put, nicest members TFO has ever seen. Since joining TFO, BullDog has been the team's go to guy for a wide range of situations.

All members of The Final Option are willing to sacrifice their time to help other members with problems they may be having, but some do it so often that it's sometimes taken for granted. Since joining TFO in July of 2003, "Bull" has been one of the people you could always count on for help when you needed it most. Always ready and willing to put his own enjoyment on hold, Bull has been known to spend hours at a time trying to solve the problems of others.

From administrating to trouble-shooting, competitive matching to reliability, BullDog has always been there for his teammates. Quietly helping to guide TFO on its course and lightening the team leadership load, as well as the mood of the team with his sense of humor and fair play, Bull has emerged as one of the team's most lethal players.

Running the gauntlet every day, helping the team with his leadership, assistance, exceptional gaming skill and always being a true friend, The Final Option is honored to induct TFO_BullDog into its Hall of Fame.

Were this for anyone else, this preamble would not be taking place.

Joining The Final Option in the latter part of 2003, Syb became only the second female to ever appear on TFO's roster and quickly infected the rest of the team with her friendliness, southern warmth and honesty. Truth be told, she soon became our den mother who looked over TFO with the gentleness of a house cat, yet protected her cubs with the ferocity of a tiger. It would be impossible to imagine a more loyal member of The Final Option than Sybarite.

Fair and accepting to a fault, Sybarite played a key role in The Final Option's darkest hour. When turmoil struck the team, Syb chose to throw herself on the sword for only one reason. Her love for the team was greater than her love for herself. Sadly, Syb was cast out from TFO. For nearly a year, while not included on the TFO roster, Syb still assisted TFO in all ways possible; spending time and energy helping the very team who had shunned her. How many others would do the same?

Eventually the air cleared and Syb was asked to rejoin the team to which she not only belonged, but earned her rightful place within. Without recognition or fanfare she immediately returned to the business at hand: helping her team, and its leader, whenever the need arose. If a call for assistance was made, Syb not only delivered, but she delivered big!

The Final Option would like to formally and publicly extend its apologies to the greatest friend this team has ever known. When we look into the night sky, it's comforting to remember that we share the same view, and this earth, with someone from whom we can all learn a lesson in forgiveness and loyalty.

Though greatly delayed, it is never the less with tremendous pride and humility that The Final Option proudly accepts TFO_Sybarite into its Hall of Fame.
