'''Furry Fight Farm''' ('''FFF''') is a cyber-wrestling community based on real-world wrestling franchises and set in an alternate reality known as Las Vegas. Imagine [[Omaha the Cat Dancer]] as an [[Wikipedia: ECW|ECW]] diva or [[The Lion King]] meets the [[Wikipedia:WWE|WWE]] and that's pretty much what they're all about. The FFF has been the longest running furry cyber-wrestling community in one form or another, and many former members of the FFF have in turn founded their own cyber-fighting communities ([[Blossom Club]], [[Clawnation]], [[Furry Wrestling Alliance]], [[Western California Alliance Wrestling]], [[Wild Side Wrestling Federation]]).

==What is Cyber-wrestling?==

The FFF is a message board/instant messenger based [[role-playing]] group with adventures taking place in a fictional alternate reality. It is based on freeform, diceless gaming, meant for intermediate to advanced roleplayers.

The FFF is not an E-Fed. E-Feds are usually run by a few hardcore fans of established real world wrestling federations and what they produce is no more than fan fiction.

Cyber-wrestling is a true sport. The best description of which can be found by in the ''How-to Cyber-fight Instructional Guide'' (Second Edition) written by Jenny B. Sweet: "Cyber-fighting, in all its many varied forms, differs from real life fighting only in that you and your opponent are battling over a computer and not face to face. Therefore, you must use both your imagination as well as your knowledge of fighting methodology, in addition to maintaining constant attention to the progress of the match, in order to fight realistically and effectively. Whether fighting privately, as is most common, or publicly in a chat room with friends in attendance watching you perform, you must follow some simple rules to make the whole experience more enjoyable for all involved, as well as make the fight itself more realistic."

==History==

The FFF was created and moderated by [[Martin Evans|Martin "Coelacanth" Evans]] initially as a [[Yahoo! group]] in 2001, but it eventually expanded to include real-time roleplaying on two [[IRC]] channels. There were also some secondary FFF franchises, including a second Yahoo! group, and a group on [[Smartgroups]]. The FFF was so popular that non-furries would sneak in pretending to be part of the fandom. However, due to constant internal conflicts, the plug was pulled on the FFF in 2006, but the FFF was revived in 2007 by popular demand. Several old FFF regulars have returned to participate as well as new friends from the ASWL and GGWA. The management of the FFF vows that many of the mistakes made in the past will not be repeated and the best group management strategies from mainstream cyber-wrestling groups will be employed.

==Membership requirements==
The FFF is seeking competent roleplayers, not lurkers, spammers, or powergamers. Serious applicants only. We still support artists as we always have, but all art has to be wrestling themed.

==The ASWL & the GGWA==

Coelacanth went on to found two other cutting edge cyber-wrestling communities, the [[All Species Wrestling League]] (ASWL) and the now defunct [[Glitter Gulch Wrestling Association]] (GGWA). Both the ASWL and GGWA not only have furry wrestlers, but they also have other exotic character types like [[vampire]]s, [[succubi]], [[Wikipedia:elf|elves]], superheroines, and some pretty weirded-out humans who all cyber-wrestle for titles and glory.

'''Martin Evans''' (aka '''Coelacanth''') is a [[furry]] short-story [[writer]]. He has also founded several cyber-wrestling feds of both furry and non-furry persuasions, the most well known being the [[Furry Fight Farm]], which is the mother of most living furry cyber-wrestling feds. He also has interests in [[Wikipedia:cryptozoology|cryptozoology]], horror, and environmental issues.

Coelacanth currently lives in Las Vegas, Navada.

==Liturgy==
Coelacanth has written a handful of shorts, mostly about his best-known character Haggis and the [[Furry Fight Farm]], but his liturgy also includes a few fanfics of the survival-horror novel ''[[Wikipedia:World War Z|World War Z]]''. A few shorts even mixed the two topics.

==Haggis==
[[Image:Haggis FFF.jpg|right|thumb|FFF cover picture of Haggis]]
Haggis (aka Wilma Wilberforce) is the brain-child of Coelacanth. She is a full-figured middle-aged ewe ([[female]] [[sheep]]) who works as a professional wrestler, and many of Coelacanth's stories focus on her misadventures. Her gimmick is wrestling topless because, in her early career, unskilled wrestlers would rip off her top to distract her and get a cheap win. She earned her ring-name from her wrestling school because she showed a lot of guts.
