Hello My name is Andrew, or Blasticon/ Pinja To the internets and I am Brand new to W&W. As directed by the administration and CDC I am informing you all that i am up to date on my vaccines and currently a non infectious entity that seeks non-lethal socialization. Formalities aside i will now inform you all of 10 tidbits of information that form the being that is me
1. I enjoy Breakfast as long as there is bacon involved
2. I once flew a kite into the sun. im sorry.
3. I am in fact a warrior not a wizard Trained under harsh conditions to withstand the mortal perils of arm to arm combat. and the occasional laundry day and/or ill-tempered badger.
4. I have tasted the noob cookie in my earlier years of playing DC and it was delicious
5. no i do not know the recipe to the mighty quest giving cookie. ( i assume its a bit heavy on the sugar )
6. I play lots and lots of games but am taking time off WOW cause i just don't have that much time anymore.( no you cant have my account but i might play on your server.)
7. Im a 22 year old man/child/robot that insists that all problems can be solved with a nap a snack and some Video games
8. I believe Popcorn and computers don't mix.I Believe Chicken-fried steak and Gravy DO mix
9. My girlfriend insists all those fires were my fault when clearly she told me to do it.
10. I think lists are pretty fantastic as long as they are in denominations of 10.

DC is far less time Consuming, I Was a mega Hardcore (nerdcore) WOW player, and between raiding and getting gladiator in the arenas it was entirely too life consuming. the gaming aspect of it was fun but its mostly about the social networking that makes a game succeed. a great example would be the rise (and fall ) of console games that lacked a multiplayer experience. a great example of how much we adore the 4 player experience would be Left4Dead and Borderlands, both shooters that were built around multiplayer fun and we adore them for it. no one wants to play video games alone... at least this one Tells me i can only play so much in one day ... until i make 35 alts but the same happens in WOW. ( but that just gives me more time for playing bayonetta and Darksiders ...alone ... till i send em back to gamefly)

Welcome Blasticon!
In the spirit of your entry decalog, I'll try to respond in like manner.
1. Welcome to the clan!! We're glad to have you.
2. Expect a Private Message (PM) from me soon, to help on the layout of the land around these here forum parts.
3. Expect an in-game welcoming gift-basket from me in the near future too. As clan welcomer, it means I get to give you stuff. Neat, huh?
4. Forget beer. Bacon is proof that the gods love us. Ever hear of bacon salt, by the way?
5. There's a lot of great people around here and a lot of fun things to do. As Sirinnu also said, I spend most of my DC time not questing.
6. I admire your training, but I should point out we also engage in combat of legs and torsos, not just arms.
7. You may also be asked to dust on occasion. I'm sure you'll survive.
8. If you have any needs for gear/items, feel free to contact Ant (she's one of our armorers) or post in the thread for gear. We're all pretty generous.
9. Spaghetti sauce and computers also do not mix. Especially if the side panel's open and your dinner falls directly on the motherboard while it's running. In case you were curious.
10. There are many of us here that also like playing with words. Take a look around and jump in where you feel like it.
Hope to see more of you around!

Welcome blasticon I think the 3 most important parts of your initial post are: bacon gravy clearly she told me to do it. ;D there is mayhem to be done here and up-to-no-good sorta stuff can happen on occasion. You are obviously a genius. There'll be a few others coming by to welcome you with offers of gear and supplies and answers to your questions. I urge you to take as much as you can hold. They'll just bug you until you take the stuff anyway. Meanwhile, wander around, check out the place. There's some odd goings on here and there. and ya can win more stuff. um.......... so there! pinata man

Dear Blasticon: In the spirit of being helpful, in increments of 10...People to avoid: 1. Toki....He lives only to correct your grammar and eat things...very talented sig maker...but more like an evil genius... 2 Orrv...Seems like a nice guy, but disaster follows him like a shadow 3. Sininnu...Again, Seems like a nice guy...cheats at dice...eats brains 4. The Ant...Pinches people and drags them to the nest where she forces them to eat dirt....Not as FUN as it sounds 5. Gawayn...Uses obscure words and has a sly humor that makes you snort milk out of your nose....(do not read his posts while eating/drinking or if you need to pee.) 6. Irishman...Lives only to ruin your liver...and help kill off brain cells....LOTS of Them. 7 Life Is Pain...Will NOT throw bail when you get charged with arson...will, most likely, throw a party...at your house... 8. Safarah... wild child who will probably get you a trip to the ER if not jail...See: grand theft Trebuchet. 9. Toki...Trust me...he bares listing twice... 10. Torra...mean, cranky and likely to duct tape you to a tree for no apparent reason....notorious Diamond and bacon thief. If you can successfully avoid the above mentioned miscreants, I'm sure that your DC experience will be trouble free and you will remain the sane and sanitary man/child/robot that you were when you arrived. Please feel free to post in Orrv's Help thread...you most likely won't get any help...but the food is fantastic!!! Bring your own Haiku ;D Torra

Please feel free to post in Help thread...you most likely won't get any help...but the food is fantastic!!! Bring you own Haiku ;D Torra #7: Will NOT throw bail when you get charged with arson...will most likely, throw a party...at your house... Should read as: Will NOT throw bail when you get charged with arson... will likely throw a party... at your house. There was no need, or reason, for the comma. #9: Toki...Trust me...he bares listing twice... I naked listing twice? Maybe naked posting, sure, but not listing. I always make sure to wear my List-Making Pants whilst forming mine lists, thank you very much. The proper phrasing would be: Toki... trust me, he bears listing twice. Lastly: Please feel free to post in Help thread...you most likely won't get any help...but the food is fantastic!!! Bring you own Haiku The last statement should read as such: Please feel free to post in Help thread...you most likely won't get any help...but the food is fantastic!!! Bring your own Haiku And as a final note; my own list: Reasons to avoid Torra: 1. She's a girl. 2. She abuses her husband, clan mates, friends, dogs, plants, etc. 3. She's been neglecting her poor trebuchet and allowing it to rust. 4. Her love of Diamonds borders on obsession. Never tell her if you find one, as she'll try to encourage you to sell it. Much like the Mob encourages people to sell their business they've had for thirty years by tenderizing their kidneys. 5. She's from Gryffindor. They're all crazy over there. 6. She insults people in their own castle. Who does that? 7. She's TERRIBLE at dice. On most days, I think she actually wants to lose, she's so terrible. 8. She doesn't have a sig. She's been a member for over a year. That's just bad manners. It's like not introducing yourself to your neighbors-and I don't like rude neighbors! 9. She's got some shoe fetish. She'll claim, in public, that it's only for SSS and how she abhors CSB but we all know that for the lie it is. (We've seen her talk about how nice CSB are and how she prefers them to SSS) 10. Her grammar is atrocious. I wonder some days if she merely beats her head against her keyboard and posts the results.

Actually, Toki, it should read as: "Please feel free to post in the Help thread. . ." You have a tendency to neglect articles. Never neglect the articles."And as a final note; my own list: ^Improper use of the semicolon. Punctuation counts too. "Reasons to avoid Torra:" ^There are no reasons to avoid Torra. Not when she says nice things about me in her list.

It pleases and amuses me that many have gotten into the spirit of list making. and as for the people i need to avoid ... your first mistake was the assumption of sanity on my part ;D. Incoming Response list to torras. 1. Toki: I come from the future where grammar is non existent and waffles are banned from society also we don't put periods at the end of sentences 2.orrv: chaos follows me wherever I go, therefore if we meet the world should rightfully implode then explode! 3. Sininnu: Eating brains and rolling dice is an American past time, who am I to deny him the good cholesterol stored in brain matter. 4.The ant: im not sure what to do with a high powered ant person, other then learn to enjoy the taste of dirt by bringing my "Blasticons Home made Dirt Hot Sauce: Spicy Chipotle Flavored" 5.Gawayn: Humor is Always welcome in the House of pancakes. i mean blasticon. 6.Irishman: one of my super human powers is a never Ending liver, and my Cuban love for Rum Considering my blood is at least 5 percent alcohol at any given time i think we will be friends (especially if he becomes a vampire) 7.Lifeispain: The trick with arson is to not get caught, the bail issue is no problem, and considering i would prolly end up burning my own house... the party problem isn't either. 8. Safarah: The people in my local ER know me by name... 90.Toki: Again you were placed on this list, so imma just' puncuate thies" sentance wrung; while tyiping wt'h terrble Speleng?! 10.Torra: Mean cranky duct tape, all mix well together! stealing diamonds is a fun international past time. however i regret to inform you the theft of my bacon ... well lets just say you wouldn't survive the attempt that and you would have to try and steal it from my stomach... this being the internet and all ... i could be a hyper intelligent cow ... which brings up the question ... which stomach is it in, and if so Can i swap it around while you search? as for miscreants Next list you might make just might have 11 People to run away from ... Bwahahahah! fwahaha ... cackle ... giggle ... nap ... ZZZzzzzz
