Hey there, fellow chumps!

Piral · #1 09-18-2011, 12:45 AM

Hello everybody!

My name is Pat (Piral is just my online nick), and I live in England. I don't want to go in to too much depth, there.
I'm a college student - studying IT - and I just started my second year, and I still have 2 years to go.

I'm an "odd" guy who likes to create games, play games, write stories and have a laugh. I can't do much else because I have terrible co-ordination. I'm a munchie.

Because of that, I mostly sit at home, playing games like Minecraft (addictive as hell), MMOs, and games on Steam.

And not to mention that Oddworld has been with me through a lot of my childhood - I sucked at it back then - but it was somehow amusing to get shredded by everything.

I'll leave it at that for now.
I look forward to getting to know you all on the forums!

A new member with grammar skills? Is that allowed?

Welcome. You seem like the kind of person that will fit in well here once you warm to us.

Strike Witch · #3 09-18-2011, 03:01 AM

The hell is a munchie?

Crashpunk · #4 09-18-2011, 03:22 AM

Finally got the E-mail then Piral?

Thanks for the welcome. It's interesting, I have come across this forum many times, but it never occured to me to sign up.

It seems that Oddysee has done its job. They're extinct. Nobody knows anymore. But if you want specifics, I was calling myself a klutz.

You could say that.

I think you'll find the animal is called a Meech. And I should know.

Also you might want to change your avatar. We have at least three members all posting under that.

Welcome to the forums, anyway.

***Nate*** · #7 09-18-2011, 05:24 AM

He might be referring to the character of Munch with an affectionate nickname.

So I take it that crashpunk and Piral are mates and it took him a while to get the registration confirmation message? Well maybe if I wasn't the only admin bothering to check registrations, it wouldn't take so long. Yes, I went there.

Welcome mandem.

Dixanadu · #9 09-18-2011, 07:52 AM

Allo allo.

I was aware of that, but what would you call them as a group? Meechies? I tried; and failed. I admit.

Yeah, I can imagine it would be a somewhat popular one. Everybody seems to like Abe in unfortunate situations (as he always is). The picture made me raise a smile.

It's nothing personal. He is one of the few people I noticed when I encountered these forums. I was merely telling him how I had registered and was waiting for activation, and was almost excited. Hehe. It's no problem, though, Nate. I was fine with waiting. And since you say you are the one who puts in effort, then kudos to you, and my thanks.

Dixanadu · #14 09-19-2011, 01:40 AM

Dyna has such unimaginative greetings.

I got tired of the usual "Hello and welcome to our forums, you won't last long, don't feed the trolls" stuff.

JennyGenesis · #17 09-19-2011, 02:30 AM

Maybe I'm way too behind on this but what on earth is that in your avatar?

Dynamithix · #18 09-19-2011, 03:00 AM

Looks like Kirby mixed with a Pokémon.

Phylum · #19 09-19-2011, 03:05 AM

Since when are cats Pokémon?

Dynamithix · #20 09-19-2011, 03:13 AM

It reminded me of Mew.

Mudokon_Master · #21 09-19-2011, 03:29 AM

It looks cute:3
Welcome Piral

I like your name!

It's simply Kirby. Except he's a cat. I liked the look of it. xD

Nothing wrong with mentioning trolls. Unless you're talking about internet trolls. But that's off-topic.

Cute is what I was going for with that picture. Don't know why; but I wanted it.

Thanks. But on a different note, a Swedish friend of mine told it meant "Hagfish", so uh. Yeah.

T-nex · #23 09-19-2011, 08:34 AM

We don't have Internet trolls. We only have real trolls.

Welcome anyway

STM · #24 09-19-2011, 09:15 AM

Unfortunately we're in serious need of troll hunters. =/

Do you like working with a bludgeoning weapon Piral?

Piral · #25 09-19-2011, 09:48 AM

Real trolls are much cooler. And more bludgeonable. Oh yes.

Dixanadu · #26 09-19-2011, 11:00 AM

Weakness to fire.

MeechMunchie · #27 09-19-2011, 01:23 PM

And ultraviolet light, and Christian folk songs.

It's all explained in this pamphlet.

Wings of Fire · #28 09-19-2011, 05:21 PM

I don't think we have any trolls anymore. Not really.

***Nate*** · #29 09-19-2011, 05:24 PM

Or perhaps we've just been desensitised to their antics?

I think it's a bit of both.
