Getting to know you all.

Recommended Posts

Hmm... I've been here for a long time, like many of you have been. And this place is like home, and I don't really know any of you. Where you're all from, your names, etc.

Since this place has been friendly lately And that doesn't mean that we need to change that. :)

I'll go first. Elbryan42 is obviously not my name. Name's Rob. I live in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada.

By the way, my nic comes from the main character in the novels "The Demon Saga" by R.A. Salvatore, and the 42 is from Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, meaning the answer to life the universe and everything.

Names Sean Gauthier, and the first time I played DOOM was on the 32X, and back then I couldn't even find out how to defeat a Baron of Hell that kept killing me on Level 15 of it.
I'm now 15 years old.
I did my nick while the Free Hissy Campaign was still moving, and before Hissy was Freed. Like back at February, I entered this board.

Well, my name is John Wantland (weird last name, huh?) and I live in McAlllen, Texas (second hottest place in the U.S., next to Death Valley, and then, just barely). Um, I started playing Doom when I was living in Wyoming, my dad had seen someone playing it at work, and he wanted me to go download it. That was way back when we had a 14.4 modem and I thought 3 megabytes was a HUGE download. I played it, and was hooked ever since. My taste in music is classic rock (basically any rock from the 60's, 70's or 80's will do) and just a little bit from the early 90's, but not much, since I think that almost all music made after 1990 stinks. I took my name from the combination of the fact that I love Doom and do stuff like reformat my hard drive for fun and program in Qbasic even though I know C++. I still own and play the original 8-bit Nintendo, which I love to death, and have a huge obsession with old video and computer games. In real life, I'm eccentric, spastic, neurotic, and otherwise mentally unstable, but not in a bad way, and most people think of my as nice but odd.

All right I'll bite. My name's Josh, I just turned 21, and I live in the armpit of the USA... Southwest Michigan. My first game of Doom was when I rented it for my SNES and I played it nonstop. I managed to rent it about another ten times before I got a computer, and I've been addicted ever since.

My nickname is a rarely used gothic term. A deadnail, or deathnail, is the last nail put into a coffin. I like it because it's morbid and it stands as a slight reference to nin. Very slight.

My icon is two Japanese words over a spiral. The words are HenTai, which directly translates into pervert. ;)

The name's Chris. I live in Aberdeen, WA. I came to Doomworld March 1 of this year, and as of right now (Apr. 25) I have reached my 300th post already. (This being 301)

I was interested in Doom ever since some years ago (maybe 7) when my cousin showed me it on his computer. I began playing SNES Doom and got all the way to Phobos Anomaly, but couldn't figure out why I kept on dying in that dark room with the demons in it, and after that, why the game kept on restarting. I was playing it under "I'm too young to die!" mode then. Hey, it was my first time so give me a break! Then in summer of '98 I got Doom and Final Doom for the PSX. Christmas of '99 we finally got a computer. I eventually bought Ultimate Doom and then Doom 2 a year later or less.

About my nickname, "Zeratul" comes from one of the Protoss heroes from Starcraft. The "982" is quite simple. The 9 is the day of birth (Nov. 9) and the "82" is the year of birth (1982). So, that makes me 18.

I wanted to have the "Zeratul" and the "982" together in some way, but as it seems, it didn't recognize the underscore. Oh well.

Well, I´m not a true poster in this forum, I´m mostly focused on the DooM3 one. But, anyway, how could this hurt?

My name´s Federico Ceccatto (spanish/italian if you wonder), and I live in Argentina (the southest country in the world).
I´m 17 (this sounds like some kind of crappy AA meeting :) and my nick comes from the name of one of the most powerful characters in the classic turn-based strategy game "Master of Magic". My face´s obviously the Heresiarch of Hexen, since I´m a true Hexen/Heretic fan.

This place INDEED feels like home, I never miss a chance of checking both general and doom3 forums whenever I get online. This is my 1125th post so far.

Speaking of DooM, I´ll say the first time I played it was on my dad´s work, and he even bought me the game later, something that shows how much times have changed. Today we have all that violence crap, when my dad got it for me at the age of 12.

hey a fellow Canadian! I'm Jim, from the bald ass prarie in southern Alberta. I love this game, but it's gonna be much greater once all this sourceport bullshit works itself out and we finally get some good universally bitchin' engines to make levels for. I started playing way WAY back when DOOM first came out on a 386 with no soundcard. I still fire up the old doom and play a few levels in the lowest rez with the PC speaker just for old times sake. Ahhhh the memories...

The name's Renato Lucifora (not to mistake with Lucifer - Lucifora in latin means "brings the light" while Renato can mean both "king born" or "re-born").
I live in a little peaceful country that is the Switzerland.
I turned 18 last month.
My nickname started of an ortography error. I wanted to write "(ils)feront" wich in french mean "(they) will do", and I added an "h" that turned the word in "Feronth". I looked at it and I was thinking "Hey, that's cool for a nickname". So I opted it instead of JudgeDooM (my old nick) who sounded too newbie-ish.
I discovered Doom for the first time on the SNES. I first bought WWF Wrestelmania, but I didn't like it. A friend adviced me to change it for Doom instead. So I did. Of course, it ran on the SNES, it wasn't that fluid and beautiful compared to the PC version, so I didn't like it at first. But then I played, and I played and I played, and I played...and so on. Till I got totally addicted to this game. My brother was worse than me, everytime I came back from school at midday, I always found him playin Doom. That made him bought Doom and Doom II (they were all the 2 in a "re-play" edition pack). Then I discovered Doom on the PSX and loved the ambiance especially because of the music (thx Elbryan42 for your ftp btw. So I can listen again to those musics). And then I had my PC and the first game I installed were Doom and Doom II.

Name's John. I live in Houston, TX. Gonna be 15 this year, which makes me 14 (And single :p)

I got my name (Rubilacxe) a long time ago when my brother introduced me to online gaming. He suggested that I get a Deathmatch alias, so I looked for a word, found Excalibur and made it backwards. Thus, Rubilacxe was born :)

Plus, I used the name Rubilacxe for a "badguy" in a comic I made. I am working on a movie script of it, but hell, i'm babbling again.

BTW, in my signature, you'll notice one of my quotes says "JWL". That would be my initials.

My name is Tony Lindberg. I´m 20 years old. I live in Uppsala, Sweden. My nickname Ghostpilot is taken from a very cool NeoGeo-game with the same name.

My first encounter with DooM was when my friends parents bought a new shiny and extreamly expensive 486-computer. With this monstermachine we could play the "near realistic" horrorthemed game named DooM. I couldn´t beleve it. It was even better than Wolfenstein. It even had stairs and many levels of floorheight.
Man I was scared when I first played it. You could hear the monsters everywhere.

My name is Kristian Käll. I live in Sweden and I first played doom when we installed computers in our classroom back in early 1994. I'm soon 22 years old and I love Punk Rock. :p

My favorit band is AFI(aka A'buncha Fuckin Idiots, Anthems For Insubordinates, Asking For It, A fire Inside)

Other great bands are, Pennywise, Dead Kennedys, NIN, Union 69, Offspring, No use for a name, no fun at all, etc etc. If it's punk I probably love it.

bands that suck. NOFX and other such bands that try to act cool.

My nick comes from when I was young and foolish.

Yo, good idea for a post, dawg! I was actually thinking about asking dis shit next... oh well.

Mah name is Jose Escobar, and I live in deltona, florida.(otherwise called DEADTONA! Don't let them fool ya'll peeps, florida's only good for vacations! Dis be da state of retired old people and cops, ONLY).

I be 22 years old, and mah b'day is march 12th. I am 5ft 6in tall, 135 lbs. I am a puerto rican, ghetto lover, dat lived in brooklyn, NY for 15 years of mah life (in da "bad part", not no goddamn rich neighborhoods)!

I live with mah moms and pops, my 2 brothas, and mah 2 sistas (I am da oldest). I like latin music, hip hop, r&b, rap, and club or dance music. My hobbies are playing video games, listening ta music, chillin wit mah peeps, and going to see mah beautiful little wifey (means girlfriend, NOT WIFE!!!), Erica. In other words, doin mah thing, and just plain willin' out!

Mah name was given to me by mah dawg, fat Pete (he gonna be da next big pun, believe dat)! We was listening ta Nas, and he pointed out dat there were about a billion people wit da name Jose, and dat I needed mah own "tag" (it means nickname basically)! So he started thinking and then we suddenly heard Nas saying dat line where it goes "Escobar season has returned!"
He thunk for a minute and came up wit... ESCO (mah last name is escobar, rememba dat)!

Believe it or not... I USED TA HATE DAT FUCKING NAME!!!
But, after a while so many peeps liked it (especially da honey's around these parts, heh heh) and recognized me by it, dat I decided to stick with it! Plus... it makes it harder for da cops ta find my ass, if they is eva lookin' for me.

Not dat they ever would have a reason ta look for me....

//esco looks around, throws his gloves in da trash can, and starts walking away whistling it's a small world after all//
