I suppose I should fill this in now.

It all began a long time ago.....

*screen goes all wibbly in traditional flashback scene style*

I had been looking round the chatforums for a few days, and hadn't posted anything. I wanted to read what others put to get the feel of things before I started posting.

One friday mroning I saw a topic started by St. George (Wookiee in disguise, he obviously had nothing to do at work that day either, nothing changes eh? :-)).

He was putting Meka (Meka Dragon, St George, geddit?) on trial for all the songs he'd been putting up where he'd change the words to something to do with gaming.

St George was talking to the judge and saying things like "Here's the evidence Your Honour, and I thought I'd join in.

So I quickly signed this name up, and joined in the story. I think Wookiee may have thought I was a regular in disguise (as there was no colour coded names back then, or stats either), so he kind of went along with it.

*Screen goes wobbly this time, as we come back to the present*

About 6 months later and I'm still here.

I was thinking about changing my name a few weeks ago, as it does sound a bit poncy I admit, but then I figure if I did, no one would know who I am, so I thought I'd stick with this.
