Title: Old COTYs and such from the past for a project
Post by: Amidweiz on January 13, 2019, 01:23:49 am: Considering the 20th anniversary of mugen is just a few months away, I was considering doing something a bit special for it's birthday. It's not going to be anything huge but I do need to know info about previous character of the years and stages if possible, or any analogue of such. I do know the mugen guild start page (http://network.mugenguild.com/guild/start.html) has the characters of the week from the past archived on it though I was curious if there was any other awards that where given out in the past 20 years.

God, I hope not.

I think so, but you might have to ask one of the old heads of the site.

mfg specifically, no (though there was character of the week, which is archived in the start page of mfg) but I know a few other websites had their own versions of them.
