[OT] Introductions Well i see we have a few people here and i thought it might be nice if we knew a little about the people we will be spending long sleepless nights and unprodutive days with. saying that;
I am not a total newb to ARGs, i lurked in ILB for a while at the end and played the pregame to the project syzygy/perplex city ARG and i am very much looking foreward to an ARG i can actually see through to the end, unfortunatly life got in the way of Perplex City. I think this ones shaping up to be a big one and i cant wait for it to start, or atleast spit out a puzzle we can work on.
Giskard if this counts as spam them im sorry, go ahead and deleat it

Yup.
Nice to meet you but there's an introductions thread somewhere in the meta section of this site. We try to keep the number of threads in a game forum down to reduce clutter, and this is clutter.
Mods, if you please....

Well, it sorta kinda is, and Shambles is right, there's an introductions thread in the Various & Sundry forum , but we are not big on deleting things at unFiction, so we might best take the opportunity to make this thread a general Orbital Colony Introductory thread... at least you tagged it right
Let's make this the only slightly spammy off-topic thread though folks!
Having said that, I might also add: Welcome Ice! I hope you will enjoy Orbital Colony!

Hi, I'm Mos. From accounting? You probably don't remember me. I was just wondering if maybe you wanted to go do something tonight.. see a movie, maybe have some dinner? No? You're busy? How about Friday? Busy then, too?
Oh.
Well, uh, I'll see you at work. Maybe. Sorry.

Hi,
I'm Miss M - I'm kind of new to ARGs and have finally caught something near the beginning (hooray for me!). Unfortunately I have *absolutely zero* useful knowledge to bring to the table, but if you guys will let me tag along with you, I might come in handy one day
And Mos - I'm free on Friday night, you know, if you're not busy or anything...

Hi, kids! I'm Magical Elbows (Sasha), and I've lurked on ILoveBees since slightly before the halfway point of that as well as looked into a few other ARGs, so I know what to expect - and I've joined now because this is the first ARG that I'm quite interested in that I can see from beginning to end. I hope I can contribute productively. And, y'know, have fun.
I'll enjoy working with you folks.

Welcome!
Hi, I'm HitsHerMark and I play ARGs. ("Hi HitsHerMark ")
I have finals today and tomorrow. Then I'm free for three whole months before starting an MBA program. So I'm very excited, and actually kinda glad things haven't quite started rolling before now... But I hope this gets started soonish.

Yay kilroys everywhere! That's great, this arg for PMs in training looks like it'll serve as one for players in training too.

My name is Axys Denyed (say it phoenetically, you'll get it). I've played a few ARGs, lurked a few more, and I need something to kill time until PXC is in full swing. So, here I am

Hey all! I've tried a few ARG's but none actually worked out..I'm still sad about COD. Anyhow I really pretty much am useless and get lost and confused easily. But, experience is the only really good way to grow, So, here I am...again...

The problem with ARGs is that they encourage me to bury myself in the basement and stay up all night looking for hidden messages on webpages/in pictures in a paranoid frenzy. That said, I don't get out much. *twitch*
I just finished The Carer, and was playing The Trail...but I'm not sure how far that's going to get. Whoo! Welcome to the OC!
