So. Uhm.
on: April 21, 2009, 09:20:36 pm
Hi.  :nervous:

My name is Will, I'm from South Carolina, and ever since I first played the  TSM-103C mission, I've been addicted to FreeSpace and the Descent games.

I'm fairly experienced in FRED2 Open, and have other programming experience (2 years of C, 4 years of Java, another 4 years of PHP, and I can't count how many I've done web design with CSS and HTML).

So I guess you could say that I'm the incoming jump signature with a nerdy configuration?  Or perhaps that applies to the whole board?  :P

All joking aside, I'm glad to be a part of HLP.  You can call me sigtau, Sigma, TMS, or just Will if you prefer.  Whatever works, right?

What's the blinkin' forum code for the welcome beam again...?

Welcome! Pro tip: suck up to Goober and the mods, they've got God-level clearance to your account and have a habit of sticking people with bizarre custom titles.

Yet thus far I remain unscathed. Woo!

Boystrous 19 year old temp at work slapped me in the face with an envelope and laughed it off as playful. So I shoved him over a desk and laughed it off as playful. It's on camera so I can plead reasonable force.  Temp is now passive.

Wat, I didn't know there was a silver welcome beam.

Anyway, nice to have you aboard, sigtau. :)

It's an in-game reference to Freespace 2 a.k.a. the nerdiest reference you can make :P

"Incoming jump signature! Hostile configuration!"
God, the only reason that line isn't EXTREMELY annoying is because it gets spammed so much that it gets completely tolerable. :rolleyes:
Fun while it lasted.

Great jumping bananamonsters!  >10 replies in under 30 minutes.  I would say this is the most active forum I've ever joined.

Aside from that, thanks, guys.  :)

Personally, I preferred "HOSTILES APPROACHING FAST!" over "INCOMING JUMP SIGNATURE..." and whatever.   But I couldn't have made such a stupid nerdy joke with the first one.

By the way, I have a campaign in the works.  And yes, it's yet another campaign continuing from the FreeSpace 2 storyline and where it left of, but I've got a more creative story in the works than a crapload of Battle of Endor style missions (there will be only one mission to that effect, but a lot of the game involves good use of the bomber wings).

But that's a story for another post.  I'll save that for tomorrow's writing, it's about 1 hour until midnight on my end.  And it's the last quarter of school.   I need sleep.

I like the fact the FS analogies end up getting used so much in serious conversation around here, since it's the common ground you can be totally sure of. :D

Except for zack.
