shinytoyrobots Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Hi all. I'm Robin. 33 years old Brit living (most of the time) in Southeast Texas. I'm a freelance web designer. Discovered ASOIAF when I was at university (hell...13 years for this series already!).I'm also a big fan of SM Stirling's Emberverse series (recently discovered it). David Weber's Honorverse is my guilty pleasure (perhaps because I also love the old style 19th century Napoleonic naval novels like Hornblower, Richard Bolitho, etc). I think WoT is one of the most overrated fantasy series around.Oh, I also pretend to be a vampire in The Camarilla's LARP chronicle. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really been enjoying the level of discussion on the board.Name was actually a phrase used in some of White Wolf's vampire related roleplaying books. Since taken a life of its own, as it's my business name at www.fogofeternity.com, Twitter tag, and username on pretty much every internet service or messageboard I use. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dulin Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hello.My name's Dulin (not actually but as this is the interwebz...) Uh... I don't really know what to put here so I am going to load on the interests and random facts! =) Yay! I'm seventeen and my dad recommended George R.R. Martin's books to me, and I in turn my friends.I wrestle and play football. Other books I like include Dune by Frank Herbert (I've read all the ones written by Frank but not his kid, I think they would be a great disappointment), the Otherland books by Tad Williams, The Lord of the Rings (of course), Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, I like H.P. Lovecraft, I really enjoyed The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis...and that's pretty much my tops.Television wise I am a fan of Adult Swim and Discovery really. Metalocalypse, Robot Chicken, Man vs. Wild, Family Guy, Cowboy Bebop, and Ghost in the Shell. Video games.... F.E.A.R., Baldur's Gate (I and II), Dragon Age, Fallout 3, Doom 3. Uhhh.....Yeah.Maybe to much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altherion Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Maybe to much?Nah, that's fine. :)Welcome to the board! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_BlauerDragon Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Maybe to much?Not at all. It was a bit before your time, but you really should go back and try Fallout 2 (it was one heck of a game!). Oh, and looking over your rather interesting list of favorites, I think that you might enjoy reading some of the works of Robert E. Howard.

nadine Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Hello everyone! I'm nadine, i'm clearly super new.

Umm...I love TV and movies, I love to read, and I'm just finishing my second round of schooling (got a degree, decided i wanted to be in school forever, so I went back to college) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winterborn Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 (edited) Hello!I'm Joh. Picked up Game of Thrones a few months ago, now I'm hooked. Halfway through my second re-read of the series right now, and still enjoying it very much. I've been stalking this forum quietly for several months and very much enjoying the debates and discussions and wild crackpot theories. :) Figured it was time to join up. I'm old (27) and I work too much. I have a two hour commute each way so I have a lot of time to read Sword and Sorcery novels and listen to heavy metal music on the bus. That's about as exciting as I get. :P Edited December 14, 2009 by Winterborn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
