    Introduction:

    HoodStory

    GamersHood Planet (GHP), a part of GamersHood Forums, was officially populated on 2nd September 2006. From that time on, the culture on GHP has developed very fast. Meanwhile there is a lot of information available on the structure and layout of the planet, its islands, its residents, and also the specific terms used.

    The intention of this thread is to provide you basic information and to get you updated. Since the development is still going on, please check back from time to time to learn the new scientific results and linguistical additions that will help you to orientate yourself within the GamersHoodish culture.

    If you have a suggestion for corrections, for new established expressions, or if you can provide scientific data (information, a good map, a nice calender with our Holidays etc.), don't hesitate to PM me, or another active moderator.

    Chapter 1

    HoodScaping aka GH PlanetaryGraphy:

    GamersHood Planet (GHP):







    GamersHood Planet is covered by the Sea of Knowledge, and is divided by a number of islands of different sizes. So far the following islands have been discovered:

    Adventure Island:



    This is the island where Adventure is staying if she is not visiting Carrot Island or Myranda Island. It's one of GH planets most beautiful islands, where the Nectar Falls comes crushing down from the Lady Bug Mountains, and running into Sparkling Nectar River. Important areas are the Honey Bee Gardens, and the Illusoric Circular Square Glade that is located in the Bright Peaceful Forest. Uphill from the forest, a gorge can be reached. This place is called The Breath Taking Look-Out, which has also been named The Bee Launch Pad by the members of the Looney Bin. The known habitants of Adventure Island are ladybugs, butterflies, honey bees, wasps, Tae Fae (fairy), Melody (official Cheese Assassin), and the dragon named Petalon the Dark who has slept for 500 years in a cave. Adventure Island is connected to Myranda Island by a portal.

    Carrot Island:



    Carrot Island is the first populated area on GH Planet. Surrounded by the Sea of Knowledge, there are the Google Mountains with the Wiki Caverns, and the Yahoo Falls which connects to the eMeSeN River. Close to the falls is the portal to the GH Hotel. There is the Ever Dazed Forrest, The Butterfly Meadows and of course the Great Carrot Fields. Known Islanders so far: Eternal Becky at Ever Dazed Forrest, Hollandgirl and her horse Twinkle, lazy Tiny Gumperball that helps around in the carrot fields but is at his best as a scare crow. Frequent visitors are Adventure the butterfly, EscapeGirl the talking cat, Mistery the alien and OneBun the pink bunny that also has a basement or two (nobody but her knows for sure how many) on the island.
    All the residents of GamersHood Planet are welcome visitors on the peaceful little island.

    Energy Island:



    Nobody except from Vault can live on this island, because this would be too dangerous. This place is for visiting for max. 10 minutes to get some energy otherwise members start to see bright lights and faint. In such a case, fainted members must be saved by the local authorities with help from the other local residents. Since Vault is blind, he is not affected by this danger and lives therefore on Energy Island.

    Fox Island:

    This is the island where Hyper aka Darknessinferno lives. It is not much known yet about this island, only that it is full of holes dug by the fox, and that probably there are some volcanos on it.

    Myranda Island (aka Floating Island of Myranda):



    Is the main island on GamersHood Planet, where for example the GH Hotel, the local GH Police Station, or the News Agency are located. This main island is connected to the other islands by portals, and also with the external GamEscape Island, where OneBun can be located if not on her visit on GamersHood Planet.

    Robot Island:

    Robot Island, silver-metallic luster, is the place where Sir ThemePark, the Humanoid Robot is living with his son, surrounded by other robots, modern machines, oil, anticorrosive, and other tools which are needed to maintain robots and machines. Other residents of GH Planet visit Robot Island usually only in cases when Sir Theme's help is needed, for example to analyse and to decipher the binary code that was found in the blood of a Red Slurp Spider.

    Sky Island:

    Sky Island


    This is the base of the only transport company on GHP, and the home of Zox. Here, the members of the Looney Bin can have a nice holiday or break if they like, but they have to check in first.
    The only way to get to Sky Island is by spaceship or boat.
    For more information:
    http://gamershood.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2842

    Slurp Spider Island:

    This island is populated by the Slurp Spiders and their king. They are the most dangerous enemies of the members of the Looney Bin (for Looney Bin see chapter 4).

    Worm Island:

    Worm Island is a dangerous place populated by millions of worms, where the residents of GamersHood Planet turn into worms on their part. The Worms are collaborating with the Slurp Spiders, which are the most dangerous enemies of the members of the Looney Bin.
