Spoilered because apparently I get suspended if the picture contains any blood, whereas nearly all the games we won't stfu about (which the forums were created for us to talk about) are violent enough to get Jack Thompson on our tits about them.

Take from that what you will.

I AM FATHER TO A MURDERED CHILD, HUSBAND TO A MURDERED WIFE. sorry i couldnt resist as this was my 1st post since joining i had to right someting silly
I am Maximus Decimus Meridius, Farther to a murderd child, husband to a murderd wife! .. and something else i carnt remember- it was an awesome film though, loved it : D
Good first post btw, welcome to the Escapist


My names Nick and i am going to Lancaster University, England in late September to study History and International relations. I spend most of my time alternating between the PS3 and my laptop, and occasionally going out to the Pub with a few friends. Most regard me, i think, as a nice and rather knowledgeable guy. I'm diplomatic, a good listener, quite-easy going and imaginative.

However, i can become a bit too introverted, becoming quiet and unsociable, sometimes reverting into a sulk or spontaneous depression. I also feel i act a bit "wierd" at times, by not quite grasping what a conversation is about and say something irrelevant, or make obscure references that normal people do not understand. Some of said i should "put myself forward" and act more assertively in certain situations.

I'm Lorenz, a 22-year-old German university student (subjects: English and Geography) in my 5th semester... still pissed about the damn Bachelor/Master system they've forced on us. Grrrr...
Things that make me special? Eh... I can beat virtually anyone when it comes to drinking beer very fast. Other than that I know my way around a blade, and I don't mean the kind you use to shave - put some nifty scars on other people's faces to prove it, too (didn't emerge unblemished from those encounters, though). Sounds worse than it is, just check this out --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mensur

I'm not gonna tell you my name if that's what you're thinking. I have a webbed toe and was born with a vein close to my nose, meaning I often get nosebleeds. I'm confident, good with people and can strike up a good conversation. I love peace and quiet (Especially out in the bush). I'm a bit of a film and game geek. I'm perfectly healthy, no diseases or anything. I'm a quarter Polish, quarter Croatian, quarter Australian, an eighth American and an eighth Scottish. I love Italian food and my favourite place in the world is San Francisco. My goals are to one day go to Mackenzie Country, see E3, write and publish a book, hopefully get into an area of work relative to gaming (For your whole life you've gotta get out of bed every day and go to work. So you might as well be able to think "Can't wait to go") and see E3. My favourite film, Gran Torino, my favourite game, Half-life 2, my favourite book, Mortal Engines, my favourite tv show, Red Dwarf. I love a good story (especially ones about the supernatural) I play the piano (Though I wanna learn the banjo one of these days). My favourite ban, Flogging Molly, my favourite song genre, Western. I can spin a damn good tale ('Specially on the spot, that talents gotten me out of some sticky situations) and I just love freckles on a girl. That's about all I can think of right now. Also i'm nice and pretty smart.

I'm actually against helping the poor people in Africa.
You can probably make a good guess at what I'm like from that.

errrrmmm... you could look at your profile pages, mine has who I am on there?

Anyways, I'm not really a gamer anymore, I've lost any kind of gaming system other than my Macbook, which you might tell is rather limiting when it comes to gaming (and its a bloody good thing as well, it keeps me from being distracted from my work).

For the most part I'm just an 18 year old kid in England, but I'm also a rather unique one... Both my parents are/were artists at one point or another (they met at arts college, my dad does it professionally now), meaning I have access to a big arts studio whenever I feel like a paint, thanks to the last remaining part of a barn from a farm that used to be where I live.

I'm diagnosed with several things, including Asperger Syndrome, Joint Hypermobility Syndrome, serious allergies to Penecillin and allergies to gluten (I ignore the last one though, I can't get enough of mah bread XD).

Mainly though, I'm a juggler. I juggle as a hobby and on the odd occassion professionally too. (If you ever happen to go to Wokingham May Fayre, look out for a curly haired diaboloist :p) I use Devil Sticks [http://juggling.tv/video/2507/tempei-bjc07], Clubs [http://juggling.tv/video/2437/asleep], Balls [http://juggling.tv/video/913/c2laballe-1007], but mainly the Diabolo [http://juggling.tv/video/2692/sharpe-attack] (NOT the game [http://www.gametrailers.com/video/debut-teaser-diablo-iii/35667]!)

So errrrrmmm... yeah! Who am I? Thats me :p (there is more but I can't be assed to put it here)

edit: obviously none of the video's I put were me... but I found the best examples of each of the things I could find :p also, the juggling ball thing is a tad different cause I couldn't find any decent juggling balls-only video... so that one is bounce-balling instead

I am a 22 year old human male living in Australia. The only remotely interesting thing about me is the fact that....... I'm half chinese but I look almost completely caucasian (same thing with my sister, although not my brother, who looks the most asian out of all of us).

And that's not very interesting. Not very interesting at all, given that it hasn't affected my life or the lives of anyone else in any way shape or form. Ethnicity doesn't matter to me at all, as it shouldn't matter to anyone else.

I'm boring and what is "special" about me is shared by at least a couple of thousand people in Australia, which makes me not-special.

But if I think really hard........ hm....... let's see...... something special, something special....... well, occasionally the left side of my body from the waist upwards, spasms spontaneously for no apparent reason. This happens every 3 weeks or so, lasts for less than 2 seconds but oh my is it disturbing and annoying when it does.

I'm average. Painfully so. Average height, average weight, average intelligence, average hair and eye colour... But I do have an above average ability to draw free-hand!

Yay for self-esteem! Or maybe realism.

I am a man who loves reading, writing, anime, videogames, and tormenting my friends with horrendously lewd jokes that usually make absolutely no sense unless heard in context. I'm an insomniac, a carnivore, a general lover of all things fuzzy, scally, and things with big teeth meant for nomming faces. :3

My name is Puzzles, I just bought a shiny new tan leather jacket today. It goes nicely with my tan dragon-skin boots. I can't wait to put on my black skinny leg jeans and go out drinking, because I will be the shiniest kid out on the town.

I tend to push people away from me for precisely no reason, and for this reason I enjoy the escapist. I can state my outrageous opinions and if I offend someone, well I won't care.

Life is a roller coaster for me, I suffer from manic depressive (bi-polar) disorder, which can be quite hard for my studies at university. Some weeks I will study hard, attend every lecture and feel full of purpose; other weeks I will drink every night and barely make an appearance, hide in my room and avoid my girlfriend. I echo Christian Bale's weight patterns, one month muscular and energetic, then a month or two later slender and lethargic and about 10 kilograms lighter. My friends have told me I am never the same person.

I, like many introverted people and indeed many people on the escapist, overanalyse every aspect of life. I study relationships and predict outcomes. I go over events repeatedly in my head to figure out their signifigance and try and gauge peoples feelings towards me far more than any sane person should.

I not spiritual, and come from a family of scientists/doctors/engineers who (with the exception of one) do not believe in any sort of god, this has of course shaped my into the critical bastard that I am today regarding religion.

I don't play many computer games, but when I do I get very addicted. I'm still playing CS, after all these years pretty much every day. My favorite passtime is snowboarding, but living in the most isolated, desert encapsulated city in the world (Perth) means snow is a rather large continent width away, and I get very bored without it. Nevertheless I moved to Canada to live in the snow for 6 months last year, which was the best time of my life.

When I came back, a lot of my less close friends are no longer friends. I'm not a social enough person to call them up after so long to meet up, so I know that it is the end. Sometimes I wish I had the drive to befriend people, but often when people try and talk to me I am looking for the nearest exit. I am not shy, but I enjoy my own company more. I don't need to watch what I am saying or worry about anything. It's hard to be yourself when no one understands your sense of humor, so I just react sarcastically to most things now.

I'm a jaded, flawed person. I know this, yet I can't help but point out other peoples flaws.

Well that was longer than I expected, but that is what I'm feeling at 7.00pm.

EDIT: A post a couple above mine reminded me. I had a rather severe head trauma a few years ago, and one side of my body also spasms. Not so much anymore, but when it did, the whole left side would ripple constantly for hours as my muscles twitched, it was distracting as hell but it went away.

I also lost my sense of smell from the head trauma, and I'm starting to think my memory as well. Sometimes I will wake up and my nose will start bleeding for no reason.
