== Trivia ==
==Video links==
*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]].  
A playlist featuring CAOTIC's gameplay can be found [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXJ2gfrciMkslj7B_SclB8RayFh22cso9 here].
*In addition to playing Bowser, CAOTIC also forms one half of the team "Peaches on Ice" as [[Peach]] with {{Sm|Wobbles}}.
*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.
