    You have one wish!

    I see nobody has picked mine yet... The ability to predetermine the outcome of events if I choose to do so, either generically or specifically, with no, from my point of view, 'negative' side effects occuring as a result and nobody realizing I was the one who influenced the event. Yes...

    Your username and what it says about you.

    Well, it is a nickname given to me at the start of high school, and I liked it. I do not go by it in anything other than websites and video games though...

    'Addicting' - is it the right word?

    Well technically... "Addictive" is an adjective, you use it to describe a noun, as in "an addictive game." "Addicting" (in the sense that you are using it) is a gerund, which functions as a noun. "This game is addicting" is technically incorrect to say, but most people interpret it as...

    An Introduction into the World of PC Gaming

    I think Minecraft on the "peaceful" settings would be good. No enemies or gore, just move around and build stuff. At whatever pace you want, too.

    Should I buy an Alienware?

    Yup, this. Or you can build our own for less. It is actually easy to do, even if you do not know a lot about computers...

    University: No Online gaming!

    Well, my university reroutes UDP connections through TCP (or something...), which means Steam servers are unavailible... You can still access steampowered.com, but not any game servers... Which is stupid...

    Retail games

    I prefer retail because I like rows of boxes and tend to not sell back. And any download stuff uses online DRM, so I can't play them if civilization collapses...

    Are you prepared?

    Yes. I have a few gallons of gas and a gas-powered generator with a power output of about 3000Watts. I'm good for about a week.

    Am I the only one with a Nuclear Holocaust box..

    Well, I have a list in my head... And a Costco about 1 mile away, so I figure I will just head there when the bombs fall. (for anyone who doesn't know, Costco sells bulk everything for cheap, mostly food)

    Is 1-on-1 online matches worth it?

    Meh. I really don't do 1v1 because I prefer playing on a team. In most games I play online (strategy), I prefer to slowly build up a massive army, which leaves me weak in the start. If there are other players to protect me, I last longer and usually win. And that's "Are 1-on-1 online...

    What do you do when you're bored?

    It depends on how much time I have. Less than 1 hour: Go here. More than 1 hour and at home: Games. More than 1 hour and at school: TVTropes.

    Poll: If you had the choice between immortality or becoming a fully robotic cyborg...

    Just to clarify, by "cyborg" you mean a human with mostly-robot parts. Right? That is what I define a cyborg as... That is what I would want, robotic organs and endoskeloton, but fleshy outside parts (>coughcough<). Robot arms would be pretty sweet, mostly because I would mod them excessively.
