Introductions go here, so introduce yourself. Who are you and whatnot. Perfect for newcomers or if you wanna say something about yourself.

Well, since I've already done this it's cut and paste time:

My name is Peter, I was born and lived in Northern England until I was 12 and then moved to Toronto, Ontario where I lived until my wife and I decided to start a family. Not wanting to raise our kids in a City of 3 million we moved to London, Ontario and have been here ever since.

I am fascinated by video games, JRPGs and Old School Survival Horror in particular. I don't read as much as I should anymore but when I do it's Sci-Fi, Horror or Humour for the most part. My taste in movies and TV skews that way as well.

My musical tastes encompass a broad spectrum of genres incorporating everything from Hardcore punk to Handel.

I detest top forty music because it is rife with phonies who are more industry creations than musicians. Puppets on strings  being made to dance by their handlers

I'm a big fan of beer and love to try new brews when I can afford them. 

I'm a hedonist who chose never to grow up  I'm easy to get along with until you piss me off and then all bets are off. 

I'm an IT professional currently working with Microsoft Sharepoint and Electronic Forms design for the Catholic School Board (and no I'm not religious)

I always knew you lived in London since your profile has always said so Peter, but I always thought it was the English one & not the one in Ontario lol. We have a pretty decent Canadian population using Pixlbit so far. There's even two on the Pixlbit staff that are from up north.

Ah, what the hell.

Philip Becker, I am from all over the Midwest, but currently reside in Milwaukee, WI.  Just in case you were unaware, Milwaukee is the greatest city in the world, or at least Wisconsin.  It has a lot of the big city attractions without the traffic.  I married a teacher in 2012 and I currently work in a spice warehouse.

I am fairly introverted, but if you get me talking about beer or Doctor Who good luck shutting me up.  Since I am here, videogames are also something that I am passionate about.  

I am not quite sure what else there is to say at the moment.  I am fairly tall.  I have practically sworn off regular neckties because bowties are cool.  I cook, a lot...  every night.  Cooking is something else that I am passionate about I guess.

I wear pants.

I'm glad to hear you wear pants Peter. You probably wouldn't have a job for very long if you didn't Laughing

To do my bit: My name is Shane. I'm from a small town in the south west of Ireland originally but moved to Pittsburgh about three years ago with my wife. I would describe myself as outgoing but awkward. I get away with a lot of awkwardness here in the States because of my accent. I tend to get hugely absorbed into the fictional worlds i'm interested in, whether it be via book, tv series, comic book or video game. I think my favourite medium for fiction is books but I'm obviously very interested in video games. I enjoy RPG's the most but tend to get overwhelmed if I take on more than a couple at the same time. 

I really enjoy the community we have here on Pixlbit. I haven't really come across anyone who I dislike and it's great to be able to express by geekdom with others.

Also, I LOVE Manchester United.

Uhm...I'm going to make this short. 

I'm Colton, I live a bit outside of Pittsburgh, and I really enjoy video games, reading *gasp*, and music.

 

*also, as somebody who doesn't post much on here, I mostly just read articles/blogs/etc, I plan on being a bit more active on the forums. *

...Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. Sorry, but someone had to!

Seriously, though. My name is Tami and I live in Maine. I'm a park ranger, I like photography, reading, hiking in the woods with my dog, cross stitch, nature stuff, folk music, and of course gaming. My favorite gaming genres are turn-based rpgs, old style point and click adventure games, platformers, goofy kart racers, and puzzle games. I also like action games and shooters if there's a decent story involved. I hate rhythm games, fps, and tower defense games.

There are quite a few Pittsburghers on here for the size of the community. Interesting.

Nice to hear from someone new.

As for myself, I'm a Texan and a bigot. People may disagree, but I really do think I'm a fairly sizable person, and I do train otters from time to time.

Ive never, I think fully introduced myself so here goes nothing, I go by Nicole on here but you have mostly been decieved because my actual first name is Brittany. I hate the name with the passions of 3 burning suns though. I might have posted my actual name on here but if so I forgot. I live in Texas and while I hate the bi polar weather we expriance it is home for me. I enjoy gaming, reading, and writing for the most part hobby wise but video games are practically my life. Ive played them since the NES days and have gotten to play on a wide range of consoles.

I'm Darth...and I have a problem shooting Force Lightning at animals.

1Up refugee, all my people came here, though to be fair...I came here right about the time that Jesse and Esteban were getting on staff.  Actually was going to do a stint at Staff Writing here, but I changed jobs and was lost to obscurity for two or three years.  

cheers!
