What's up. I'm Maynard. I come bearing gifts.

[Krooze L-Roy]

Hey, all. I'm Krooze L-Roy. Long time admirer of Racketboy's site, and I've got a gaming blog of my own (see my whorish signature if you're curious).

I was born in '83 into a household with an Intellivision and a 2600, so I'm (arguably) part of the first generation to be "born into" gaming. I've got no job at the moment, so expect to see more of me than you're probably comfortable with.

[Ack]

Hey Krooze, glad to have you aboard. I will say I can't read your signature unfortunately...it doesn't mesh well with the current them I'm using(black background and all).

Hi,
I'm Bill and go by the handle of "gtmtnbiker" which refers to my GT RTS1 mountain bike. I originally grew up in NJ and after college, moved to outside the Boston area. I grew up with Atari 2600, 800, and Intellivision. I had the Genesis after college. Just recently, I've got back into gaming and now have: Gamecube, NDS, GBA SP. I'm looking to score a used Dreamcast. I already have so many titles for the Cube that I wonder if I'll ever really get a chance to play them all.

Growing up, my favorite games were: Lode Runner & Miner 2049'er for the Atari 800, Adventure & Pitfall for the 2600.

Now, I still enjoy Lode Runner for the PC and am looking to score Cubic Lode Runner for the GameCube. I'm a software engineer with a hardware background (EE/CE). I have two daughters (8&5) that enjoy playing Mario Party with their Dad.

I remember going to the local pizza parlor or deli store to play Asteriods, Space Invaders, or Congorilla (knockoff of Donkey Kong). My friend would come over to my house and before we went to the store, I would stop by some houses on my newspaper route to collect the money owed. Every couple of weeks, we would have to meet the newspaper district supervisor to pay for the papers. My Mom would ask why did I only end up with something like $5/10 instead of $25 like my brother? "I dunno" I would say.

Eh, you're not really missing anything in my sig. Just a sloganizer that says random nonsense about my site. Thanks for the welcome.

Also, welcome, Even Newer Guy.

Congrats kid, I think you're officially the youngest person here.

RyaNtheSlayA is now old. That means he's gotta start acting like an adult.

[DarXide]

Hello, I'm new here!
I'm into all sorts of games (new, retro, indie), as long as they're made with love! (I'm the same DarXide as on the HG101 boards).
