new names! new avatars! new board!
« on: August 10, 2007, 07:10:59 PM »
can nothing stay the same? *cries*

See, at least Thanatos WARNED us he might change his avatar. So if and when he does, we will still know its' him. Or at least suspect it's him.

And this new board is linked to the old address or some such evil magic like that, so we can all find this place fine too.

AND my name change is so obvious why why...it's practically the name I should have been born with in real life.

But some of you have made yourself so different....so obscure, so hidden - I practically wanna poke ya with a stick and make you wear a cow suit!

Introduce yourselves darnit all.

We can start with thie Petrarch.....anyone know who he is?

It feels strange... like we're in a parallel universe just a few universes away... familiar yet different.

We should have a contest where the names and posts are hidden for a while and people try to see if they can guess the villager based on the writing style.

I'm sure Chucara could whip up a script.
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.


Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!

Me? I never change :)
Famous for it I am.
Conventional wisdom would say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" ...but the real truth is that if I didn't keep the same ID all the time, then I'd probably forget who I was and start replying to my variously named selves without even realising it  :laugh:

OK, so we all agree to start calling you 'Dork' now...

All I changed was my avatar and that was because the UV had been lacking any C&H for far too long. It needed to be done.

I haven't changed anything either. Though I'm tempted to break out the rude animated green guy avatar.
All right, I’ve been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man whose gonna burn your house down – with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

I put one of the fallout Av's on myself. Been using the Halo/Bruce one for a long time so I figured lets have something from the good old days for a change.

Same name (except for those who remember me as Deathclaw).

The avatar and sig have changed, as done every couple of months.
