I don't care if there's a thread about where everybody comes from

My friend Sean... errr, Kenshin has just reg'd and we haven't actually had a big get-together-tell-me-a-bit-about-yourself yet, so why not? I'll start...

I'm Eddie Woo, callsign Setekh, hailing from Sydney, Australia. Chinese/Malaysian background... I'm 15, I play games and do funky lookin' renders in my sprea time, and... I wanna work in graphics (definitely something computer-geared, though preferable something where I am within close reach of games - either playing or developing) when I grow up.

Next!

SpeedyTomato · **Reply #1 on:** July 20, 2001, 07:03:00 am

my turn

I'm Frazer Davies (otherwise known as Shadowman/Shade/Tiger/ etc... from Swindon,Wilts,UK. I'm 22, play games, do Martial Arts & build websites in my spare time. I'm currently the Design & IT Associate for MailBoxesEtc Swindon, but i'm learning stuff like PHP right now, so I can go into Web Design full time.

next!

You know, I was thinking of starting a thread asking everybody's ages since I just turned 26 today... and now I see this thread.

OK, I'm Joe Kaczmarek (JoeK, pronounced "joke", from an old saying of mine back in my depressed teenage years "life is a joke and death is the punchline", now I use JoeK as my art-psudonym and my web-name and site: joek.com).
I work in the web industry. Used to build web sites with a design company, then the big dot-com bust happened and now I'm lucky enough to still have a job doing portals for an e-commerce company.
I'm married, so now I don't get as much time for my hobbies like maintaining my site, playing Freespace and Civilization, and reading sci-fi... but my life is so much happier since I found my wife that it more than takes up for less free time.

Also, I'm from South Florida (raised in the middle-class section of Boca Raton (yes, this is one, as well as a lower-class section), but I've since moved out and live just south of there in Deerfield Beach), and have lived here my whole life.
And that's me.

Joe.

Black Ace · **Reply #7 on:** July 20, 2001, 10:57:00 am

How can one resist a thread like this, eh?

My name is Anthony VeraCruz, callsign Black Ace. I am 19 years old, and am currently away from home at university in Chattanooga, TN. Here, I am double majoring in Public Relations and Cinematography, with a minor emphasis in Visual Communication (aka Webdesign and such).

I currently work here at school in the Office of Student Life & Activities, where we plan every event that occurs on campus. Concerts, meetings, parties, any type of social activity, I am in charge of coordinating and publizizing. A lot of fun, and I meet a LOT of people, but very hard work, and very long hours... FS helps me unwind.

I was brought into the FS community, oh, so many years ago, by my best friend in high school who had just bought FS1. He loved playing the missions... but I grew a strong attachment to FRED, which is really why I bought FS2. I worked for Ross128 for about a year and a half, then moved here to HLP.

In my non-FS time, I play games like Half-Life and Dues Ex, as well as RTS games like StarCraft and C&C. I can't think of anything else to say...

Martinus · **Reply #18 on:** July 20, 2001, 11:02:00 pm

Whoa, where do I begin?

My name is Martin Molloy, I'm 21 going on 17 and I currently reside in Lurgan in Northern Ireland. If you want to know where that is (weirdos) look at the lake in the middle of the country, immediately below it and a little to the right, yep that's it.

I'm currently in college studying computing multimedia (web design, flash, 3DSmax, video, sound etc.) and I've background in physics, biology and technological studies. I have a diploma in electronic engineering and a passion for philosophy and life

I try my best to build models, I mess with sound (cubase, cakewalk), I do a little VB programming and I hope to learn enough C to allow me to program interesting but ultimately silly things for my Gameboy advance. When I'm not at a computer I like to build electronic gadgets, do Taiji chaun and wing chun martial arts, I like to read everything I can get my hands on and walk a lot

Other than that I'm a nice guy, so if you need help, advice, or just a laugh then I'm always willing to help out and/or make a fool of myself. I hope the NSA aren't reading this...
