ECC Forum welcome thread :-) Introduce yourself!

[Nikko]

Hi, guys!!
So, here I am, a simple boy who lives without complications, and I... love videogames. My favourite ones are Tomb Raiders, the Hitman series, the Final Fantasies/Kingdom Hearts, and so much more...
When I'm not playing videogames, I usually sport outside; and the other times, I read, specially sci-fi works, like "1984", that's one of my favourites; drawing, writing; watching movies, again sci-fi ones, go to the cinema, the TV, and more... but I don't know what to say XD and trying to improve my English when I can (yes, I know, it's bad... XD!!)
My phrase is "It's difficult to say what you are when you are many things.", or "I'm not insane, just a bit freaky."...
Well, so, I hope to have a great time here!!
Byezzzz!!

Eww.. I sense there is a strong culinary-cultural barrier here.... I'm almost sorry I asked. But thanks for enlightening me.

My name is Lo and I am British.

I'm 39 years young and some of my interests include:

UFOlogy, science, fishing, camping, animal welfare, travel, camping, rambling, computing, criminology, Vinegar, Big Brother, Supertramp, Tomb Raiding and sleeping a lot

What was the question again?

Lo, we have a few similar interests here ! ie science, camping, (love it ) animal welfare, rambling, (val der eeeee) computing, vinegar, TR, and sleeping, Mmmmmm Zzzzzzzzzz !

The ones I would like to go further into, are the vinegar and the UFOlogy.
You will probably not believe what I have to tell you about the UFOlogy.

[Nikko]

It's possible to track down copies on Amazon, I think.

And GO FF7 hehe, I love 7, though my personal fav is 8, as there's less conflict about the girls, hehe.

I played 1 after I've already played 2,3, and code veronica: X. So I never got very far in 1, lol. No auto aim and all. 4 is intense, not as scary, but the pressure is mad.

Trying to establish myself as a writer, studying English lit with the OU, Loves Amateur Dramatics and is a bit of a Tomb Raider addict. Also has a huge imagination but bad writing skills which sucks as I was good at that at school.

I have no special skills. i worry too much about what peeps thinks..

*shakes next in line* You can wake up now, it's your turn!

Hi Rai, dont sweat it. You can come out of your shell on here !

How does one "flirt"? As in, where is the line drawn between flirting and just a casual conversation?

I guess this is the flirting if thats how you would read into it. But to me it's just conversation.

I remember doing that with full bags of Sainsbury's Ready Salted Chip Sticks on a Friday night when we were allowed to stay up for the Midnight Movie on ITV.

Oh, the nostalgia. Of course, that was before they had invented flavours.


MMMmmmmmmmmmmmm! Sainsbury's Ready Salted Chip Sticks swimming in vinegar.

I think my tounge and lips would be burning from all that acidity.

You cannot hope to beat my procrastination skills!.
As evidenced in who took longer to post in this thread.

Me be DEEKMAN aka Deek Skusting aka Cap'n Skusting aka Deek.
I play more custom Tomb Raider levels lately than regular TR games.
I don't play much else.
I am hugely addicted to Futurama, and have made a minor name for myself as a Futurama fan artist, usually depicting the characters as I envision them in the Pirate Universe contained in one of th Farnsworth Paraboxes.
By real life trade, I am a graphic artist working in the children's clothing industry, doing graphics for Harley-Davidson and Levi's kids clothes.
As of the Summer Solstice, I am exactly six months away from the half century mark in terms of age. I am married, live in Brooklyn, and have two cats.
I can lay claim to having met around 40 people in real life whom I initially met online (31 of them from the Futurama forums). Every one of them good people! I am surely blessed.
