Now sign up for the Mafia games, as we need more potential psychopaths on the loose!


Mafia? You bastard! I'll never leave! Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

Any RTDs?

EDIT: A quick whip round has revealed no RTDs. Mwahahaha! This is fertile ground. You shall all succumb!

I really hope there actually is no RTDs otherwise this will be really awkward.

Unless you're referring to Resonant Tunnelling Diodes or the "Roll the Dice" TF2 mod, I have no idea what an RTD is, so you're likely safe.

Welcome all. I hope you enjoy a long and fruitful stay here.

Hey everyone, I'm Dorian....I used to live in Comox, BC, until I moved to Ireland 2 years ago. I only recently found out about LRR. Ironic, eh?
Anyway, that's my introduction. Nice to meet you all. :)

Hello, I can't think of much else to say, I love the videos, and the sites layout is fantastically old school. I'm from Michigan... It's kinda close to Canada, but not British Columbia... so... that's it.

G'day folks.

Been a fan of LRR for niegh-on a year now.

My turn ons include DiMarzio Pickups and proper grammar.

My turn offs include simple-looking walking canes (I mean, if you rely on one, at least make it LOOK GOOD!) and incorrect use of the apostrophe "'" and tilde "~".

Hi! I've been watching LRR for a good half a year now and have finally joined the forums :D.

My name is Kirby (not even kidding and i love my mom forever because of her decision in this matter)
I love gaming, a lot... a lot lot... I love it so much it has lead me to a point where i can disclose a good portion of my daily activities in a single sentence. I wake up, get coffee, and proceed to play games until early the next morning whereupon i sleep some more. rinse and repeat unto infinity.

Favorite book: Douglas Noel Adams "A Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" and related media. I read those books at least once a year and have even gone so far as to purchase the 42 Utility Towel from thinkgeek.com.

P.S. Kudos to any one who can guess which character, in Hitchhikers, my screen name comes from!

P.P.S. always enjoy a good TV show too, like Futurama :P

Long time fan, short time forum goer. I live in the Toronto area (more the Brantford area, but no one really knows where that is), I'm a Web Developer, Graphic Designer (Student), and a Freelance Web person.

I also blog and occasionally write very depressing stories. I swear I'm not a depressing person though!

Okay, I've done it. I've finally done it. Hello everyone My name is Teej, I live in Melbourne Australia and I'm one of the guys who lives overseas, in a different time zone and is up at 3am waiting for the next video to come out. Waiting for Commodore Hustle 10 was a bad idea after me seeing as me and a friend decided to make a pact to stay up till it came out... Needless to say I didn't really get to school that day but I did have a proper hobbit breakfast. Um... what else... 20 and a little nuts, studying Proffessional Writing and Editing and am a DM every second Wednesday. Yeah that'll win you guys over... 'Kay now finally... HI!

Another one for the blue crowd. Hi.
I am a guy with a really complicated name, propably nigh impossible for a non finn to pronounce so let's just drop that one. I first heard about this site when a friend of mine told me about the Installation anxiety video.
I enjoy silence, philosophy, criticizing everything no matter how mundane, videogames, computers and many other nerdy affairs.

Hello, I am fairly new to LRR. Found the link from The Escapist and now I'm a huge fan lol, Phailhaus is my favorite video set but the regular LRR vids never cease to crack me up.

Also you have 5 posts to guess which Unskippable my screen name comes from.

Software developer, in England. Been watching the videos almost a year now - finally decided to join the forums.

Naturally, I'll then forget my login information and never actually post anything. We'll see.

College-bound student and aspiring stand-up comedian. I started watching LRR and listening to the podcasts around the time Unskippable debuted. I'm a huge fan of the site but not a huge fan of forum communities, but I'll try to stick around here longer than I normally do.

So name is Karl "Wit-a-K" (the hyphens are so it isn't pronounced wi-tak if your interested in why ask and I'll explain) I am a college student in Miami, FL.

My major is Music, I am being trained as a classical singer (that means Opera lol) ironically I like to listen to instrumental music more then vocal.

I love Anime and Manga. I love video games but as a measure to actually finish school I have refused to buy any systems yet. because well between internet and video games there would be no time for school haha.
umm well yeah I guess thats all i got so nice to meet you all

I wonder if anyone will notice i changed the subject line...

I am an hero. By hero I mean complete moron. My name is so stupid, it does not deserve a capital letter. My hobbies include speaking with grammar that is of the poor and broken-ed. Hopefully no one will hate the words of which that I am the writing. Really, don't worry. My brain has many smarts. I am the tender in the cranial grape.
Greetings. I have arrived. 8)

So hey I'm new around here...been a fan of LRR for about a few months now. Actually found it while watching Unskippable. So I'll just quickly answer a few questions that are typical here...

Playing Now: Bookworm Adventures Vol. 2 (If you took a cut down version of Final Fantasy, added in Boggle without the stupid letter connecting rules, and a small little cute worm, that's what you'd get)
Matt or Tim: Matt, because we both have the heart of a gamer, sadly not the 1337ist skills though
Paul With or Without a Beard: Without a beard...he has this great boyish look to him, I bet the girls go more Gaga over it...

And that's about it. Hope to see you guys around!

Hey all! I finally decided to come out of lurker mode after about 8 months (found out about LRR from Desert Bus). I hope you'll all forgive me for not reading this entire thread before posting in it. ;)

I'm a ~30 year old former computer science major turned CNC machinist from Maine, USA. Hobbies include anime, programming, computer games and various other geeky pursuits.

My user name is what my old college mates (on "Dorm 41") call me. Oh, and since I hear it's only cool to be a fan of something before the rest of the world, I should stress that I had read the Silmarillion twice before New Line even announced the movies- so there. :P
