Who are you?
« on: June 02, 2013, 07:55:24 pm »
Hey there!!  My name is Jaylee, which is also my nickname IRL.  I am a single mom to 3 kids, ages 10, 15, and 17.  I was in the Navy for several years and now I work as a nurse.   I have been playing KoL for around 9 years now.  My original character was deleted for inactivity and when I came back I started this one.  In-game I collect stuffed fairies and vampire pearls.  I have several alts in KoL: Stormfire, Kami, and Welcomewagonger.

If anyone ever needs any help in-game, feel free to send me a kmail.  I try to answer them everyday but sometimes I get behind and it may take me a few days...

Hi there!

My name is Max and for some reason I have always kept Alex Trebek-related internet accounts.  Someday this will surely result in some sort of dissociative identity disorder.

I registered for KoL back in '04 and remember back when ascension was a brand new thing!  Then... I promptly quit playing for years.  I accidentally got permed from a hannukimbo dreidl, so my account lives!

I'm in pharmacy school and so I imagine there will be times where I'm less able to play, but I enjoy the zen feeling of beating a new boss, being able to survive a new zone, or just ascending quickly and efficiently.

Thanks for having me here!

I'm Zan, 34 Aussie and a solo mum to a 10 month old boy. I found KOL too many years ago....was probably about 8 years ago? KOL still makes me smile. What else can I say? I like odd. I have a "Knob Goblins Fear My Moxie" sticker stuck up at work...and I work in a professional environment, so people think I'm odd too.  ;D

I'm a 35 year old US citizen living in Cambodia. I found KoL about a year ago and love it! No kids but I do live with a very demanding cat named Zaphod Stormageddon Meow. I'm currently on a Zombie Master run and it's effin' hilarious!

Ooh lovely new car smell in the new forums... I'm mid 50's Australian Female independent still a hippy Michelle but everyone calls me Mitch cause I'm lots of things that rhyme with that?

kol few years now, great, really like the complexity in the game.  Bit of a no-lifer on mmorpg before, prefer kol feel.

Just got final telescope, woo me!

have fun,
mishau

Hi, I'm Tyler,

I'm a Sophomore in college, double majoring in Computer Science and Computer Engineering at WVU Tech. I've been playing since I was in the 6th grade (though off and on and I can't remember my first account. I miss my Coffee Pixie). I'm currently working my way through an onslaught of HCO, HC BM, and other runs. Also on a side project, I'm working on developing a Writing Forum and/or Game I dub Cavemen vs Zombies.

Nice to meet y'all!

I'm an Aussie working in Silicon Valley and a relative newbie to KoL.

My wife introduced me to KoL and then abandoned her character .... unless there is limited time content or Crimbo. Then she wants to play again.

My alt is "Sinick" and my name is just my initials. The "d" is for David". The "e" is also what people say when they see me ("ewww").

Bayla here.  73-yr-old wife of 1, mother of 2 and grandmother of 3, plus virtual mother of Jaylee and anyone else who'd like some mothering (or grandmothering) from time to time, either in chat or privately -- my email is bayla2@earthlink.net   

Eclectic professional and personal history, sort-of retired now.  Living in Florida, aka 'heaven's waiting room.' 

Eldest grandson hooked hubby on kol, hubby hooked me -- then grandson decamped!

Glocknare here.  Hello.  I started playing kol in college around 10 years ago, give or take little.  Played for a few ascensions then stopped and when I came back my account was gone so I started this one.  My goal is to get skills through ascension.  I have a few so far but intend to get a lot more.  I love RPG's but rarely get to play them so this is my fix.  Ok gotta go, getting jittery and need to smash things.

Hi! My name is JohntheDwarf! John the Dwarf was one of the early "desert fathers" of early Christianity and had some insight I greatly appreciate. I am currently 26, married, and a children's minister teaching about 20 kids each week! My first run took over 6000 adventures and I only played sporadically over the course of 2 years. But now I play more consistently!  I have ascended about a dozen times at this posting and finally decided to join a clan. I look forward to being a part of the community and contributing in a positive way.

Howdy,

I am Kenyon Oreblood. I am a forty-something father of nine (ages 15, 13, 13, 12, 6, 5, 3, 2, 11 mos). I have worked in the financial sector for the majority of the 21st Century. In the 20th Century, I was a professional musician. I am planning to return to college soon, to complete a degree in Applied Mathematics. I have recently returned to New York, after spending 20 years wandering the deserts of Arizona (ok... not really... I lived in Phoenix).

I played KOL many moons ago, but only for a very short time. I have returned just recently, and completed my first ascension a few weeks ago. Woo Hoo!

Hi, I'm Catherine. I am 55, and I have 3 adult children. I live in southeast Alaska. I'm widowed, but I have a boyfriend. I work as a field officer at an animal shelter.  I don't use zoloft, I just thought it sounded like a neat name. Grimmy was nice and gave me my present title. That was very sweet of him! My alt is "SunshineC", but I don't use it very often. I'm really happy I joined this clan. I think it's the best clan in KoL!

My name is Bryan.  I work in IT and live in the Southeastern US.

I discovered KoL from the xkcd forums almost 3 years ago.  And I've played about 6 days a week ever since!

I joined Old CW's earlier this year because I wanted to be in a clan with people who actually play the game.  And I'm glad I did.

Also, I go to KoLCon.  So if you're ever there, say hi!

It's cool reading about you all. You lead very interesting lives behind your clannie names in chat!

I'm Haroldine, which seemed like a female seal clubber name. I'm a forty-something married woman in upstate New York with a teenager and pre-teen and a Newfoundland. I edit romance novels for a living. I love it, but it often requires breaks to smash monsters. I also write young adult fiction. Nothing published yet, although Highlights Magazine bought one of my fiction stories. I've been playing KOL for about 4 years, and I took over my son's account, AwesomeSolarJigsaw, but I don't use it often. I collect ancient ice cream scoops in game.

Please say hello in chat!

Hello, clannies.
My RL name is Marius, I'm 39, I live in Eastern Europe.
Been playing for quite some years (>5), I have some chars in different other clans.
Well, I don't really play nowadays, I have simply scripted my daily adventures.
I'm still fascinated to discover arcane and obscure references in the game, and I mostly like to explore the new things when they get implemented.
