Hey spiderweb people. I was idling around on the internet and decided that coming back and maybe playing some of the games over the summer might be a good idea, since i've been bored lately. You may remember me under the older pseudonyms of ørangutan, or Jelly. You may well not. I don't really care; I probably won't be much of a presence here anyway, like I ever really was. But all's good.

Can somebody catch me up on any major news over the past year or so, or however long it's been since I've last been here (it's probably less than a year, but I genuinely can't remember)? I still haven't played Avernum 4... maybe I should try that out. Something to do! Hooray!

Welcome back. I'm sorry, but I don't remember you under any of those names, though ørangutan rings a very faint bell...

Yo, I have no idea who I am right now but I'm sure some clicking around will tell you who I am. Then you can tell me. Or something. I'm out to play some Brad Sucks and sit around.

no, sorry!

Well, good to know somebody remembers the name, anyway. Didn\'t expect much. I\'ve changed it because I go by finlay on other parts of t\'internet, and it\'s my first name.

Anyway... what\'s the "social scene" like here? Worth staying around in a non-lurker state for? Who is everybody, anyway? I remember a lot of the "bigger" names, like the ones who create loads of scenarios and have enormous post-counts, but anyway... Who\'s cool, who\'s not cool, who\'s good, who\'s evil, who likes marmalade, who\'s old, who\'s young, who\'s wise, who posts too much, who\'s gay, who\'s loud, who\'s quiet, who\'s got a mental disorder, who\'s crazy, who\'s stupid, who\'s childish, who\'s simply worth mentioning? Just wondering!
