Hi, I'm new. I've been watching the LRR videos on the Escapist for awhile (I remember new ones with Tim!). I felt silly calling my self a fan without even having a forum account, so I'm here and on Twitch. I like crafting, I wanted my avatar to be the felt Sir Pigglesworth I made from Tally's felt pig pattern but it would not compress enough.

Welcome! If you want a larger file as an avatar, you can upload it to another site like Photobucket and just link to it, then there are no issues with size. :)

Jamfalcon,
Yes I did take that bus. I figured out who you were when the re-tweet the of the Reaper Podi t-shirt ended surfacing in my Twitter feed.
Thanks for the welcome, it is weird being such an old fart around here.

Hi! I was a member here once, but that username is lost in the mists of time now known as 2007(ish). So now I am Ceiran, wanderer returned and spouter of much nonsense on twitch and forums everywhere.

Hello everyone,
I've been a LRR fan for several years now, and now that I moved to Victoria for grad school in January, it's finally time to join the forum (I hear you guys are pretty groovy). Living in the same city as the moonbase is quite surreal. I enjoy adventure movies, mystery novels, treasure hunts, science, and taking my cat for walks at night.
Anyone want to go for pho?
Cheers,
c7c

I thought I'd already posted here. O.o Whoops!

Hello all! I'm known by a few names, but this one is becoming my screen name of choice. In the Desert Bus chat, though, I'm known as Keldane. I've been a fan of LoadingReadyRun for years. I learned about them through working with Graham, actually, back around Desert Bus 1.

I'm a gamer. Mostly Magic and video games, but occasionally I dip into Mordheim/Necromunda or Warmachine/Hordes. My physical Magic card collection is currently sitting at approximately 25,000 cards, while my MTGO account just got started. I occasionally work on designing my own formats. I have near-zero draft experience. I'm a HUGE fan of the Commander and Archenemy formats.

I'm not sure what else to say, so I'll leave it at that for now.

Figured I should do this.

I'm MousseFilledKitten both here and in the Twitch chat. I learned about LRR through Checkpoint on PA and since watched a lot of their other videos. My gaming of choice is video and board games. Mostly Euro Games and rpgs though I am getting into Android: Netrunner. I've also just started learning karate, which I'm really excited about.

That's all there is to say about me. I also have two incredibly social cats named Cat-a-lack and Alfador. One of which thinks he's a dog and the other of which likes to eat everything that isn't locked down - which is the origin of my name.

Greetings and salutation to all. I am Baron Von Ratsworth, of the New York Ratsworths of course. I have come from the twitch chat where I have found the LRR community such an agreeable of companions that I simply had to sally forth to partake in intelligent discussions about global affairs and the price of cheese with more members.

Hello! I've been watching for quite a while now, but I've never been on this forum before. I am also a regular in the twitch chat and very occasionally check out the dbsurvivor channel. Looking forward to getting to know you all better. From the UK, mostly a videogamer but I'd love to get into tabletop of some kind (any kind). Can't wait for the lavabears campaign.

Greetings!!!

I am not new to watching/enjoying Loading Ready Run Videos but I am new to the Forums.

I am Kyle and I live in Alaska. I started watching LRR videos from the Friday Night Magic. I am currently studying Civil Engineering and looking at graduating in Dec. 2014. It has been really hard trying to play Magic the Gathering and League of Legends while trying to get my Bachelors Degree in Civil Engineering.

Just got done with the Steam Summer Sales of 2014 and this year my wallet is not hurting too bad like last year. I also enjoy playing Pokemon X and Y. For Magic the Gathering I am really into Commander/EDH. My Commanders are Talrand, Sky Summoner and Riku of Two Reflections. For League of Legends I Silver IV (I don't play ranked too much) and main Support (Leona is my Favorite.)

I suppose it could be a good idea to do this.

This is actually my second post! Hurrah! I've been hanging out (lurking) in the DB chat year-round-ish since DB5, and it's actually my fault they sang Get Bussin' (Get Lucky Parody) this year. I learned the joy of LRR through DB, and have in the last month or so truly started understanding the gift that is Alex streaming, so occasionally you may see me pop in a comment over on Twitch.

I live around the SF Bay Area, a California native, I hope to be done with undergrad this coming Spring after several-too-many years at it, I make help students learn math for a living, have two wonderful cats, and I'm old enough to know better.

I think that about sums it up.

If anyone has any complaints I will put them in 'The Bag'. If you have any complaints about that they too will go in 'The Bag'.

All over the bag

And for an avoiding-the-sun pale I would recommend the all-consuming fires of the Hijack thread, which seems to have developed a holy grail-type rash at the minute, but you can't have everything.

Hi all!

I suppose I should actually introduce myself. My name is Robert Marks.

I've done a few things in my life - First, I'm a published author (I wrote Demonsbane, which inaugurated the Diablo fiction line back before e-books had a market, as well as The EverQuest Companion, co-authored A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Agora, and I was possibly one of the first, if not the first, computer games issues columnists on the Internet back in 200-2002 - that collection of essays is coming out in August). I'm also an editor, researcher, and publisher (I own a small publishing company named Legacy Books Press). I also happen to be the spokesperson and communications director for Darksword Armory in Montreal (although I actually live in Kingston - hooray for telecommuting!), as well as the managing editor of Darksword's new magazine.

Let's see - I'm married, my wife and I have been fans of the LRR crew for a while (for me, ever since the first Unskippable), I got into Magic back in Revised, and came back to it about a year ago, with my wife following me in (yes, I've actually seen the Power Nine hit the table in melee games), and I'm a trained swordfighter in German longsword, as well as a former Viking re-enactor and combat instructor. And, I have a Master of Arts in War Studies from the Royal Military College of Canada (I was a civilian student), and my thesis was on World War I British Cavalry (and don't get me started on War Horse - every time that movie stepped foot near a battlefield, it got everything wrong).

I guess that's me in a nutshell.

Best regards to all,

Robert Marks

I guess I should introduce myself as well, if this thread is a thing.

Hello!
I go by Hascow online(or hasdgfas, if you may know me from elsewhere where I've used that).

My name is Tim, and I currently live in Wisconsin, USA. I'm a software developer, and a big fan of what I've seen of LRR, which is mostly their Magic content, streaming, and weekly sketches. I've also gained a lot of respect for them after hearing about their views on feminism and equality as a whole. I'm also a big fan of Magic, other tabletop games, video games, reading(mostly sci-fi/fantasy), and just generally being ridiculous.

I play some piano on my own when I have the time and inclination, currently trying to learn some songs from Les Mis, BSG, and Legend of Zelda.

And that's pretty much it. I don't think I'm a super interesting person, but that's me.
