| [[File:CAOTIC.jpg|thumb|during OC2]] | | == Trivia == |
| | *CAOTIC was one of three Bowsers to participate against the unfortunate victims of OC2's "Bowser Challenge" matches which pitted an opponent on a team against [[MagnuM]], [[Gimpyfish]] and CAOTIC on [[Fountain of Dreams]]. |
| | *In addition to playing Bowser, CAOTIC also forms one half of the team "Peaches on Ice" as [[Peach]] with [[Wobbles the Phoenix]]. |
| | *CAOTIC's obsession with the terms 'Boozer' and 'Cute' (usually spelt with multiple u's), proliferated in the community. [[Gimpyfish]]'s video [[Boozer Cute]], was titled after these obsessions. |
| | *CAOTIC also spearheaded the rise in Inter-College Smash Crew Battlesthe original rival bring [[UC Irvine]]. The effort culminated in a six college face-off in Southern Calfornia, which also included [[UC Los Angeles]], [[UC Santa Barbara]], [[UC Riverside]] and [[Antelope Valley Community College]]. CAOTIC's college, [[UC San Diego]], claimed 1st. |
