    were you ever bullied in school?

    I used to get bullied all the time in elementary school and middle school but I learned to grow thick skin and I got in several fights, even in the middle of class. When I got into high school it wasn't much of a problem because people knew that it wasn't worth their time to mess with me, plus I...

    Games of 2012

    Guild Wars 2, Bioshock Infinite and Counter Strike: Global Offensive for me. I never really got big into Mass Effect or any of those other games. I might give Diablo 3 a shot depending on what people say about it, but thats pretty much it.

    Poll: Help me spend $20 on steam

    I would have to agree with most others here. Save your money for the Christmas Sale or even for one of the daily or weekly sales. It wouldn't surprise me entirely if they even had a sale for Thanksgiving, though I'm not sure if they have a history of it. You can get 4 or more amazing games...

    How many games do you currently have 'on the go'

    How do you react to pain?

    I usually wince or cringe and/or start swearing profusely. That seems to always make me feel better about it.

    Poll: Okay, so who joined this site because of Yahtzee?

    I actually was first exposed to the site during March Mayhem and then ended up watching some of the videos and reading some of the articles and I have been lurking here ever since.

    What song or band are you addicted to right now?

    This song is amazing. Remix of 39 other songs into one, been listening to it like twice a day for 2 weeks and still haven't gotten tired of it.

    Reccomend me a sandwich.

    Potato Chip Sandwich straight from my time in Australia. Just two pieces of bread and a handful or two of the potato chips of your choice. Ketchup is recommended but it is optional. I'm sure there are other condiments that might go well with it but I haven't bothered to find out. It might...

    Top Three Favorite Books/Series of All Time

    1. The Dune Series by Frank Herbert and later by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. In my opinion the most well crafted sci-fi universe I have ever seen. 2. The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. Amazing fantasy universe that always leaves me wanting to learn more about it. Love every...

    How long did you lurk/ creep?

    I would say probably say somewhere around 4-5 months, I came here for the March Mayhem Developer showdown and saw all the videos and threads and such and haven't left since, though I only just created an account a month or two ago.

    Poll: Favourite feature on the Escapist except ZP?

    My favorite is most definitely The Jimquisition, his style and humor just make me laugh extremely hard every episode as well as providing very good points, I like Jim a lot better then ZP to be honest. The Big Picture would be a close second, I just love all the geeky and nerdy information...

    Your favorite author?

    For me it would have to be between Frank Herbert and JRR Tolkien. Dune and Lord of the Rings are probably my two favorite book series ever. I just love the worlds the two authors have created, they are always very in depth and always interesting.

    What is your favourite album, of all time?

    Its a tough call for me between Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles and Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd, which I believe is their best album even though everyone usually puts it under The Wall and Dark Side of the Moon. In the end I would have to choose Sgt. Peppers though...
