Hello, and welcome to the Megaman 3 team: The Mechanical Maniacs!

Megaman Teams are ordinary Megaman pages with more of a role play slant: each member plays as one Robot Master from any given Megaman game (this one obviously being Megaman 3). Megaman Teams were started by Gary Martin (also known as Iceman) of the Sinister Six. Since then it has spread throughout the net and the team scene has lasted for almost seven years now (The S6 seemed to have started as a team around November 21, 1999).

The Mechanical Maniacs was founded on May 13, 2000 and has changed a great deal. It's moved from Geocities, dealt with evil doppelgangers (no lie!), been tossed around as a subsite, went through several team members (including, at one point, half the team all at once), and has emerged as one of the biggest teams (perhaps even Megaman SITES) on the net.

The Mechanical Maniacs specializes in Megaman oddities that fly under the radar of other Megaman sites as well as the Megaman team standard of Epilogues. You want to know about Asian Megaman games? Want to read the novelization of Megaman 2? How about seeing the original article for the obscure game Rockman Strategy (which made it's debut right here, guys)?

Up at the top you'll find several selections to choose from:

Main - This link brings you to the main page.

Epilogues - Epilogues are script-based adventures where members of the team get to write stories about themselves. It's all about fun and lighthearted laughs.

Galleries - With a choice between Sprite and Image Galleries. Sprite galleries include both a selection of custom sprites, but also several official sprite rips to peruse through. The Image Gallery features, mostly, art created by members of the team, but it also has a great selection of official art.

Nuts & Bolts - This is the main site index and contains a list of all articles and sections.

Forum - The Mechanical Maniacs forum has gone through many changes since it's start as a Senac text-based board, but it's still alive and still active. It's the best way to contact members of the teams scene.

This site is maintained by me - Gauntlet (and I play Shadowman on the site). I'm the only original team member left, but that doesn't bother me as the team is always filled with talented, friendly people. I write most of the epilogues, draw most of the images, and am responsible for creating the layout you see before you. If you have any questions or technical difficulties e-mail me and I'll try to solve them.

Now that you've had an introduction tot he site I hope you'll enjoy everything we have to offer.
