Timewaster

So I've decided to create my own timewaster, somewhere between an ARG and a psychology experiment.

Here is a screen name: AmonEzhno

Your goal is to gain my trust and try to understand me by working together as a community.

It almost sounds a little egomaniacle, but I assure you this is not to stimulate my ego.

When I decide to end it, I will reflect on the portrait of me that the community has formed and we'll do a little comparison of notes Smile

I look forward to hearing your responces, and hell, if you don't like it, at least you have someone to blame!
I look forward to seeing what we can all learn from eachother and ourselves

basically I want to test how well people translate.

No one here knows my name, my race, my grades, my apearence, my job

The only thing that you can use to understand is the words I type

The ideal medium is AOL instant messanger, though I will likely start and ICQ and maybe an MSN account so more people can reach me.

I look forward to speaking with you.

I want this topic to be sort of a communal effort to get the greatest amount of info, but it is not necessary to post, though it is prefered.
