"Hello" isn't much of an introduction either... welcome nonetheless

[Taluria]

Hi. I probably should have introduced myself way back when I joined a little while back, but anyway... I'm from Alabama (woohoo?) and I'm about to enter college. I was a lurker for a long time on here (like two years or so). I have a good memory for things and an extensive library of science fiction and fantasy books. I like to write stories and draw. I'm pretty good at figuring out stuff, research wise especially.

[ON3 ARM]

Hello,

My name is ON3 ARM,

I followed ILB closely and was strongly tempted to drive south out of Canada to try and reach a payphone in Idaho and now that Iris has started I figured this time around I should actually try and participate. So after making an account here the first thing I wanted was a pic for my avatar and I have to say I think I came up with something quite clever. And upon finding this thread I had to show it off.

Let me know what you guys and girls think.

I went to dictionary.com and look up to see if "ris" was an actual word and...

Ris

\Ris\, n. [AS. hr[=i]s; akin to D. rils, G. reis, OHG. hr[=i]s.] A bough or branch; a twig. [Obs.]

Hence the reasoning behind my pic!

Happy ARG'ing and good luck all!

[argtater]

hi all. i'm a theatrical technician/stage manager/office manager. i ran across the world of ARG's a long while ago but too much work makes for a dull girl. i randomly stumbled upon an ARG blog site recently and it rekindled my thorough interest. i'm hoping to find an ARG that's newer to jump in to (it seems rather difficult to pick up in the middle of one). if there are any suggestions for upcoming/just starting ones to leap into, please feel free to let me know! happy hunting

Hey everyone - I'm new here. I'm not sure what any of this is, but I wanted to join in on the 1 18 08 discussion.

I'm in a band, I like music, and thats about it.

Wow, I kind of dove right in and started posting in torrential downpours, so I apologize if I annoyed(or am currently annoying) anyone.

I'm an adolescent (angst, angst!) and I'm currently in college which is actually treating me fairly well. I tend to use the word "fairly" way too much, but that's okay. Everyone has certain phrases that they overuse anyway, right? I'm a stickler for grammar, spelling, and mechanics, though I'm not perfect. I like spam, and by spam I mean the meaty goodness that resides in a rectangular can . I know Cantonese, but I have yet to utilize it in an ARG. I dye my hair a different color every week and I always look different from my pictures (I like to keep people guessing). It's 11:14 PM where I am right now and I think I will go eat some bread pudding now.

ELLO!

Hello

[aliendial]

Welcome! Boat pilot - lots of downtime for the internet? But probably hard to get DSL...

[Will 2.0]

Wow, I literally JUST found this thread.

I'm Will. I guess you could call me a young'un. I come from some place no one ever goes besides the occasional amish dude.
Iris led me here but I never got into it (mainly because they refused to send me a prize...) and got into a couple games and two months in I was already a PM, heading LonelyBrent17 which died two months later when my partner disappeared off the face of the earth.

Anyway, I'm working on a new project now that is sure to revolutionize the way ARG's are played...or at least that's what I tell myself at night.

I'm a HS senior, heading to Champlain College in Vermont come August and can't wait.

Oh, yeah, and I like to party.

[Blacklight]

I guess I'd better introduce myself.

I go by the name, Blacklight. I am an ex-punk rocker. I have a small home reccording studio where I create experimental electronic music. I collect synthisizers. I also am into circuit bending. I use a lot of audio editing software.

I also enjoy board wargames and hardcore computer military sims, especially Dangerous Waters, Sub Command, and Harpoon 3 Advanced Naval Warfare.

I also persue the nerdy hobby of role playing games (Dungeons & Dragons anyone ?).
I collect games. My collection includes over a thousand games (Including suppliments), both role playing and board wargames dating from present time all the way back to the mid 60's.

I was a player in the ARG, AWARE. I also did a stint in a couple others.

My signature is from one of the "Others". It was from an ARG that went belly up. This was one of the puzzles that we found that no one could decode and it's remained that way to this day. Most people think it's just a prank code (Myself included), but since I spent so much time harping on it, it pretty much became my catchphrase.

The only types of ARG's I dislike are the ones where I'll get on track with the story and everything... but then return an hour later to find 100000000000 posts of discoveries that completely leave me in the dust due to the massive number of players (ILOVEBEES was a fine example. I couldn't keep up with that nomatter how I tried). I much prefer the smaller games with fewer people playing as this gives everyone a chance to do something.

I'm waiting for the next trailhead to pop up. Then I'll jump right into it and hopefully be able to keep up with it.
