Hey, what's up everyone.
My name is Scott, I'm 28, semi-ex Microsoft (currently unemployed, but going back soon), gamer enthusiast, big time computer geek.
I've been referred here by a post over on the Fallen Earth game forums. I tested that game for a long time and just got a trial account today (too broke to buy the game at the moment....eh).
Thought I'd answer some of the requested questions:
1. What games are you currently play/looking to play with TOG?
Mostly just Fallen Earth. I play a bit of Spellborn, but otherwise I'm playing more games on my Xbox 360 and doing more 'make money' stuff with my computer.
2. What was the first gaming console you own or pen and paper game you played?
First console owned was the Sega Genesis. Although I'd consider my old Amiga/Commodore64 my first real console/PC that I used entirely for games. I didn't really get into pen and paper games, but I'm a huge MUD addict and have been since I could first dial into a BBS (early 90's).
3. Why do you want to join TOG?
Mostly for the adult gaming aspect. I can be goofy most of the time, but I appreciate conversations with people who have similar life experiences (or at least people who have watched the cartoons I grew up with.
Also, I'm looking to join a group of gamers in Fallen Earth that are organized enough to make a difference in the game.
4. Tell us about yourself or anything else you'd like to share.
Other than gaming, well I'm a landlord (own 2 properties) and have fun renting them out. I also really REALLY enjoy driving my Subaru WRX Wagon. Being from the Northwest (Seattle area) makes it a common car, but it's a good car to have in this area.
I live with my girlfriend, our 2 dogs (Boxer and Boston Terrier) and our ferret. Both of us ride sportbikes (Her: 2006 Yamaha FZ6 and Me: 2005 Suzuki SV650S) when I'm not spooling the turbo in my WRX.
Really though I'm just a big time computer geek sans the glasses (coming soon!). I have a plethora of computers and computer parts and a very large home office to play with it all.
I'm just here to have fun, crack a few jokes, and kill a few apocalypse survivors in the Fallen Earth wasteland.
Oh..and I like zombies.
