Welcome to Gaia! ::

Oh. That's what that was. I was wondering why I felt my bum being nibbled. Yes - that was a Monty Python reference. whee

This is great and all (it is. I'm amused.), but this particular topic has purpose. Can we try to stay on subject from now on. I.e. Keep chatter in the introduction thread to a minimum and use it for introductions. We have social for chatter.

Thanks.

I would answer the other questions but I'm lazy.

when we start getting more members posting there introductions here, I plan to clean it up and make it pretty.

Hehe, no one's older than AniMahler! You're halfway there, though. I still have my cartridge AND Snes, so hah! blaugh

Howdy, I'm Baughberick. I doubt you'll ever have the need to say that out loud, but if the chance ever arises it's pronounced "Bob." Except with an "-erick" at the end. Yes. I live in America and am a friend of Launcher's. Speaking of Launcher, he's the entire reason I'm here. So, blame him! He introduced me to Earthbound in the first place and forcibly made me play it. He kept hitting me and hitting me... oh sweet rubber monkey it's too horrible to remember... suppress... suppress... Ah, all better. Right now I'm in Summers and I play whenever I can highjack his beautiful, working computer with its magical emulator. My computer smokes and smells of urine. Because of my interest in the game he showed me this cult... err, guild. Or it might have been the other way around. Anyhow, I created a delicious account on Gaia and came here double quick. That makes me only a few weeks old! I'm like one of those gooey little worm-babies you see on the street! Hurray worm-babies! Other than that, uh, oh, I'm 18 years old, 6 ft 7in, and fat like Santa. I'm a huge, easily enraged elf! And I don't go to college. Take that, college! Not so tough now eh? Eh?! Yeah, but I will in about a years time. My dream job is being a bum. Maybe even one of those wandering hobos who helps needy people on his journeys around the world, but I'll probably be that guy in front of the liquor store who can't get the fire ants out of underwear. And thank you Mr. J, for this thread. I was contemplating how to introduce myself. I was thinking about making some witty comment under some topic I didn't really understand and lulling everyone into a false sense of security. And then, bam! I'd... I dunno, freak out about people being able to know my name before I told them. No, this way is much nicer.

Ah yes, thank you. I fixed the PM problem. It is now set to accept your angry rants. And Constable J, I'm deeply sorry. You'd think the female avatar would que me in, but I guess I just assume any girl online is some creepy guy who strokes his computer at night. Mmhmm.

My name is Runic1, I am 19, and I go to college in California. Anyway, more importantly I love Earthbound! Does anyone remember around ten years ago how they gave coupons to buy the brand newest RPG for the SNES? That was the only reason my dad bought me the game! I still own both SNES and Earthbound, and in fact my mom just finished it two days ago.

Hello all. Lacking a proper name, I am more inclined to refer to "hey you" than more or less anything, although "Fish" may be a suitable moniker. At any rate, I'm 19 and dwelling within the barren landscape of West Virginia, hiding from a society that demands success when all I can offer is failure! (Well, that and Mel Brooks quotes) My original introduction to Earthbound came about when I beheld Nintendo Power's infamous Scratch-n'-Sniff ad depicting bosses from the game, an event that would forever instill a deep love for the game within me. After assisting with the partially successful Starmen.net petition, I drifted around the internet until arriving here, years later, where I currently am typing a message for you all. That's about it... oh, and can I be a "Blues Brother"? My harmonica skills are somewhat tolerable, both fictionally and literally. So, yes. Thank you, and good day.
