What was your very first post on the Escapist? I was just looking at my posts, and realized that I don't even remember mine.

Geez I had to go past a lot of posts to find it. But I eventually did!

I cant step on the bottom stop of a flight of stairs, if i did, i would get this shiver and my body would shut down untill i went back up to the top of the stairs and then skipped the last step, it got really annoying on a bus, i would have to chase it...


also, i have to keep tensing and un tensing my body untill i feel comfortable, which only last's around 1 minute untill have to redo my stretching...
On A Thread called "Awkward Little OCD's you have".

Good times, good times.

It was a thread on how Gordon Freeman became famous in the game or something. I used so many damned commas...

Me said:
Well, I'd assume part of the equation would be that Freeman hasn't changed a bit in quite a few years that should create some sort of evidence to aging... That and the fact that he, essentially, did the whole 'save the world' thing in the first HL...

As with Magnisan, I'm not really sure if he was in the first HL, as I've never played it, but I figure, from the way he acts in ep2, that he's, as said above, an arrogant douche.

I must have missed the memo stating graphics were important. I honestly don't see the deal with it. As long as the gameplay is good, why condemn a game for lower graphical quality?

Also Dexter111,as nice as that presentation was you lost interest at the wall example. You don't need 5000 tris to accomplish that level of detail.
That whole posts list in the profile tends to simplify things.

It was on the thread "Your longest boss fight", I posted this,
Me said:
Because of how many times I died (I'm not joking when I say I stopped counting after 144 game overs), the boss of the second level of Ikaruga on Hard. I still can't even get to that boss with more than one life left. When I beat the second level for the first time, I literally jumped out of my chair, and started dancing.
Also, I lied in this post, it was on normal, not hard.

It was in a thread about unnoticed games
glover, it was always funny and it never got boring since all the levels are very imaginative
It kind of bugs me that I didn't use capitalization or punctuation.

I'd assume it was posting on one of the Doomsday Arcade episodes. Not positive on that though, and I wouldn't have a CLUE which one.

My first post was on a thread called "How do you find names for your characters?"

And my post was:

Kuroneko97 said:
When it comes to names, I either make up names or take japanese words. Two examples are: In one story I made up I named the main character Vereni Stycul. It doesn't mean anything; It's like a random word. And then in another story, Many of my characters were named after the color they were based on, like how the Red character was named "Akai," which is japanese for "Red."

As for last names, I do the same; either make it up or go to japanese words. I always make some connection to the character when choosing the name, such as the colors I mentioned, what the character likes, what position they play in the story, etc. (You can choose another language, like french or spanish)

You can also mix up the letters of a word and remove or add letters to make it into a name. Like let's suppose the character likes flowers:

Flower
Rewol F.

(Okay, so it's just "Flower" backwards...)
Hope I helped.

Mine was from "Bethesda is starting to piss me off" if the history post thing is correct.

Another repeating thread... Oh well, its been a few months now so I think we're due for another one.

My first post was on a ZP video I think.

Let me find it...

Capitalism because I live in North America but why isn't anarchy an option?
I was wrong, it was from a Socialism or Capitalism poll. I guess this is an indicator that it is indeed time for this thread again.

[sub][sub]My views on the goodness of Capitalism has changed dramatically in a year.[/sub][/sub]

I was happily browsing around the net when I came across a search engine result to the effect of "first person immersion in gaming" which I sort of necro'd the thread.

Took another couple of months beyond that before i really started paying any sort of attention to the forums.

"Which games do you have a special connection with?"
Antitonic said:
Alex Kidd - I remember thinking I must be all kinds of awesome for finding it inbuilt into the Master System.

Dead Rising - I had just quit my job, and was feeling depressed. Random zombie killing is the best cure for depression. It's also the game that made me buy a 360.
That's the earliest one I can find...

I forgot about it at first, but someone posted a topic about texture glitches in Resident Evil 5 and how in one you could basically see Jill's vagina, and then added that the hiccups were "bloody annoying." My response was "I know you're probably from the UK, but please try to avoid using "Jill's vagina" and "bloody" in the same sentence.

I'm totally hilarious.
