Greetings all,

Lets get the formal stuff done first:

1. I'm close to 40, so I'm over 25
2. I've read the AUP & FAQ
3. I've read forum/server guidelines.

So who am I?

My name a Michael Willer. I live with my wife in Copenhagen, Denmark.

At work I'm "herding cats" (as a blogger calls it) - I'm a project manager for a major IT Consulting company.

When not blowing off a lot of hours in from of the computer, I spend time with my wife on long walks around Copenhagen. I read sci-fi & fantasy (big surprise there), do some photographing and try to make a classical guitar sound like an instrument being played and not a cat getting its life squeezed out of it.

Games played?
A lot of time is spent on World of Warcraft (guilty there).
Spend time flying in MS Flight Simulator X, but not online. I can fly most of the planes pro-like but need practice in really hard weather.
Got an XBox which I play Ghost-Recon on and some Pro-Evolution Soccer (frankly I suck at both )

The username?
It's from Tolkien "Lord of the Rings" of course. I like the Ents. Nice guys, until someone pisses them off

... and that's about it. If you need to know more, please let me know.


thanks

Welcome Treebeard,

The ranks of TOG's Danish gamers are beginning to swell!

Just sit tight for a short while and an Admin will be along to approve your membership........at which point you can surf on down to the forums appropriate to the games you play and introduce yourself. (Don't be shy.....most of us don't bite!)

Enjoy!

Jakob

Well, this application looks perfect to me.
Welcome to TOG, Michael!

Just sit tight until a mod gives you the green light - it shouldn't take too long!
Are you sure you're not a Guild Wars player? (You'll understand that one once you read your PMs, lol)

Thank you for all your kind words

Jai, I'm not a GW player yet - maybe later. I'll be in touch when it happens.

Quick question:

Now I can see the list of private forums, but can't post.

I'd like get access to the World Of Warcraft forums, specifically to Thunderhorn domain (thinking of starting a new toon there). But all forums are marked private and I can't post a thing.

(Cute thing about your ranks I recognize those from the good old Elite game. Oh, I made Elite rank of course - hehe )

Welcome to TOG, your application has been reviewed and approved.

You will now have full access to all parts of the tog website including:
  • All tog member only forums
  • All member only areas of the website
Your membership also includes access to various tog only servers, get-together, events, and other exclusives for this 25 and over only organization.

Undoubtedly you want to get started and the best place to start is to visit the main forum for the game in which you are interested, have a read of the sticky posts and other threads that catch your attention.

Make sure you introduce yourself and ask any further questions you may have. tog members are very helpful so don't be shy....ask away

The social heart of tog can be found in "the lounge room". there are lively discussions on many subjects as well as information on real life get togethers. If you want to know the other tog members across the whole of tog visit the lounge room.

Got a technical problem?

Visit tog's very own laboratory forum & see the cage full of helpful geeks. Not only can they assist in your troubleshooting, but they also like to help with upgrade & new computer advice.
DISCLAIMER: use the geeks' advice at your own risk. they are just tog members like you & may not be fully qualified computer technicians

OH NO! I've signed up with the lamest nick name on the internet!

No worries. Our fully trained forum administrators can help. Simply post your request for a name change in 'the desk' forum & the admins will leap into action & change it for you.

There's also plenty of other cool stuff on TOG, so browse around & check it all out.

Currently tog consists of over 25 game divisions and has over 16,000 registered members.

We sincerely hope that you enjoy tog for as long as you choose too. Feel free to spread the message to your friends and family who enjoy gaming and don't forget to have fun yourself!

All the best!

The Older Gamers!

Welcome to TOG treebeard, I used to work at EDS myself in the UK as a Project Manager. I imagine that was where the term 'herding cats' came from
