Comedies Career
My very first comedy was called Vultraz's Diner; if you were to find it, and then read Tahu vs. Tahu, you would immediately find a significant improvement.
Part 1: The Vultraz Era (Jan. 2009 - Dec. 2010)
I've been writing comedies on BZPower since January 2009, virtually the moment I joined. In 2009, being new to writing comedies and the need to update regularly, I had few followers and my comedies soon died; the best one being Vultraz's Diner, which managed to scrape a total of 31 posts, the final one being in February 2010.
In 2010, after the dismal failure of Vultraz's Journey (the sequel to Vultraz's Diner), I took an extended hiatus from Comedies. However, in April, the fourth Comedies Contest spurred me to write an entry; though it did very poorly (as I had anticipated), it re-lit the comedy writing spark inside me; I was back. In May, I released The New Vultraz's Diner, a revamped Vultraz's Diner that was completely re-written with a brand new plot. It became my biggest success, in the end getting up to two pages before ending in September. There were rough patches; during the summer I wasn't very active, lowering the number of updates in all of my comedies. However, afterwards I began The Hilarious Misadventures of Vultraz, the sequel. Much to my gratitude, it was not a failure like Vultraz's Journey, and broke all the records that The New Vultraz's Diner had set, becoming my most popular comedy. It ran until December, where I planned to take a month long hiatus to sort my thoughts after constant updates. Except, that didn't happen.
Part 2: Tahu vs. Tahu & The Hiatus (Dec. 2010 - June 2011)
About two weeks later, the idea for Tahu vs. Tahu (or TvT) came to me; however, I was worried it wouldn't be very popular; fans weren't expecting my return until January, where I was supposed to launch Vultraz vs. The World to them. I was afraid that it would also seem too similar to the online machinima series Red vs. Blue, as well as the professional film series Toy Story. Regardless, I launched it on December 20th, 2010; and it became an instant success. It took me by surprise; I became so busy with school and Tahu vs. Tahu that Vultraz vs. The World was delayed in both planning and release to March 2011.
With the finale of Civil War and the launch of Invasion, Tahu vs. Tahu took over; Vultraz vs. The World and by extension, The Vultraz Series, were put on hold indefinitely. Since then TvT has risen in popularity, though it has of course had its downs.
With Invasion completed, Tahu vs. Tahu: The Tournament has been launched; set up similar to the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs, it will last six chapters before Season 3: Aftermath is released. Unfortunately, the entire series has been on hold since April 2011 due to the forums being taken offline for upgrades, along with the rest of iBrow's Comedies.
The forums were taken offline directly after both MT and I pulled a prank on my fans, spreading the word that I would never write a comedy again. Everyone fell for it, and I was intending to use the prank as an excuse to leave Comedies for a two week break... BZPower killed that thought. With the forums offline, I vanished completely from all BZPower related websites... it was questionable whether or not I would return again.
Part III: The Return (June 2011 - ???)
However, return I did. About one week into June I remembered both the Tahu vs. Tahu Wiki, as well as the BZPComedy Wiki; I made my way to both in order to make sure none of my pages had been spammed in my absence. After making corrections to changes others had done, I set the record straight on both Wikis; the joke was a joke. Upon remembering another site that several BZP members were on, I went there; to announce my return I posted the soon to be first chapter of Coconuts, a comedy that would star in the upcoming iBrow Comedy Marathon. After a week though, BZPower remained down; my momentary comedies inspiration dwindled back down.
The second chapter of Coconuts was repeatedly delayed; the prologue to Tahu vs. Tahu: Aftermath was, as I had intended, very serious. But with more than three quarters of my fans possibly not even knowing that the BZPComedy Wiki existed, how would they ever realize that I was indeed still writing?

Current Plans
With the BZPower forums offline, iBrow is currently putting together a Comedy Marathon for when they return; it will run for two weeks, with at least two comedies being updated each day.
Although any possibility of it actually occurring is very far in the future, iBrow is putting together a basic plot for a possible Vultraz's Diner movie.
Originally planned as a oneshot for the Comedy Marathon, a comedy by the title of Coconuts was recently created by iBrow; it stars Lewa, Onua, and Pohatu Mata in a quest to discover what happened to Lewa's missing coconuts, and why they can't remember anything from the night before.
