*whistles and tries to look both innocent and inconspicuous*

And welcome all!

Oh yeah neither did I. I signed up for this forum the night it was started...General was called random and I was the 2nd person to post in it if I didn't have o use the bathrrom I'dve been first.

Real Name: Nickolas Gregory Lucas

Nick Names: Sarcastic Ass, Blue, Cool Hand Luke (not really I lied) and "Hey you're that guy"

Weight: around 180

Gender: Male

Favorite Games: Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, DnD (hey it's a game too)

Favorite 8-bit character: Red Mage

Sports: What are these sports of which you speak? Perhaps they represent some sort of mating ritual in which the dumber males must prove themselves to attract a female?

Ok. I'm in college at Diablo Valley College. I play DnD weekly with friends from High School. I have a girlfriend named Angie who seems to enjoy DnD too(not sure she just started) I'm thinking being a radiology or ultrasound technition after college. I'd post more about myself but then I'd sound boring...yep...

Dragonsbane · 09-10-2004, 07:37 PM

all hail DnD!

that's easily the best description of sports I've ever heard....but you might want to rephrase it a bit...

*sigh* Very well, here's my "introduction":

Real Name: If you've spotted it (and it has occasionally been available), then you know it. Otherwise, you don't.

Nicknames?: In the outside world (which I like to visit on occasion) I'm sometimes called "eebs." It's from my surname.

Age: 10101 (There are 10 types of people in the world: those that can read binary, and those that can't.)

Height: Err... not particularly tall, but I've met shorter. Around 1.7m, but I'm not sure.

Weight: I haven't the foggiest. I'm honestly not sure when last I stepped oto a scale. Not particularly heavy, but I'm no skeleton.

Gender: XY

Favorite Games: Too many to count, to numerous to name. Entries include: The Gabriel Knight series (I also own the book versions of the first two), the Quest for Glory series (with the exception of 5, which wasn't nearly as good as its predecessors), Another World (which I am only now playing, but finding excellent, if unforgiving), the Thief series, and many more.

Favorite 8-Bit Theatre char: Tie between RM, WM, and BM.

Sport(s)?: Fencing.

Movie(s)?: Another one that's nearly impossible to answer. I always forget too many. The list might include: Armies of Darkness (Undead hordes! You've got to love it!), the Alien movies, the Predator movies, the James Bond movies, the first Matrix movie, and just about any fantasy movie that you care to name, no matter how cheesy.

Book(s)?: Oh dear. Yet another with too many to choose from. I suppose that the top three spots would have to go to (in no particular order): The Lord of the Rings (J.R.R. Tolkein, of course), The Traveller in Black (John Brunner) (that one was hard to get my hands on), and Tales of the Dying Earth (Jack Vance).

More about myself? It's impossible to encapsulate a human personality in mere words. That said, my interests include (but are from from limited to): Reading, writing, drawing, programming (especially games), computer gaming, and forests, and arcane and obscure facts. I also have an interest in physics (and have done the first-year university course in it), as well as a variety of other sciences, and science in general.

All right, your turn now, DB!

DYING EARTH!!!! Thaumaturge, I thank you! I thought I was the only one who had read that masterpiece. And I mean, hell, Dungeons and Dragons stole their concept of spellcasting from that book, not to mention a couple of spells.

Thaumaturge · 09-11-2004, 12:36 PM

My pleasure, Lycan. I always like to brighten up someone's day

.

In fact, I'm re-reading Dying Earth at the moment. (Well, not as I type, but you know what I mean!)
