As more and more people [outside this forum] come to learn of my deep dark secret, they have taken to calling me "Dac" as well.  So much for that definite line between RL and RP   ::):  ::walks over to the buffet table and picks up a glass of El Aurian wine::  Nice spread, Alces.

Ah... people on the tennis team call me Hewey. I have had a few people ask me about it - they tend to make fun of me when I give the real answer. :)

Hey there,

 

One day...at some point in the future...I will release the secret of where the name "Fred" came from. And if a certain group of people start trying to e-mail a certain relative to find out, no new Cadets for you!   :)

Well, that doesn't mean you sim too much - it just means you're on one sim!

::Stands up::

My name is Andrew, its an alias. More people will call me Andrew, that my RL name. I am a simmer, I love academies, and I love Trek. I'm also a science fiction junkie. I created the first list, so I must be the one who needs the most help.  :)

Let me introduce you all to Whiskers, so we can get back on topic.::Opens a hamster cage, and a small black ball of fur walks out, starts to stroke him::This is Whiskers, he's a radioactive hamster, somehow his skin cells keep the radation inside him. He drinks, and one of his goals is universal communism. One of his hobbies besides swimming in vates of Vodka, is building low grade nuclear weapons. Please don't upset the Whiskers, and he won't upset you. It should be noted throught he's fun to peeve off. ::Whiskers jumps for Lyon's throat, acting quickly Lyon grabs the mad rodent, and throws him back into his cage::Please don't provoke him without extensive security training. He's learned how to use the replocator, and likes to use it to replocate bigger weapons.

I knew I was doing to much simming when...

I started turning down overtime at work because I might miss a sim plot..

I used school computers to write logs rather than term papers

I did a speech class assignment on simming

I wrote logs on paper when I didnt have access to a computer

I was dreaming in character

I had 7 AOL SNs... all for simming, and they weren't enough

I started saying LOL to jokes instead of laughing (still do)

 

But the biggest...

 

I moved halfway across the country to meet (and later marry) someone I met in a sim.
