What forum did you hang at while Hero of the Republic deathshadow was working his magic here?

"I shivered in the cold and dark, with no place to call home" is an acceptable answer . . . [fiddle]

I was mostly boosting my post-count on ConceptArt by being a hypocritical jackass. Also getting acclimated to the new computer. And drawing:

I got Civ 5 for Christmas, so I played about a million hours of that.  And drank a lot.  Does that count?

I finished my Field Manual entry for Clan Burrock and started to learn how to write MARC records (class started for me).  Hung out on Sarna.net for a while too.

A friend pointed me to Minecraft in order to shut me up about the forums.
This is still 2011 right?  Just asking because I was gone when I played that game.

I visit a few other forums that are not BT related on a regular basis, for instance talkbass.com or mission4today.com (for the IL-2 Sturmovik flight sim), but the weather here has been very nice recently, so I wasn't online that much in the first place.  Not to mention there was some fantastic soccer matches and NFL championship games.   :)

Wait... It was down?

<note to self: check in more often.>

J/K, Being mostly a lurker here, it didn't affect me overmuch. However, being able re-register made me reconsider my handle (used to be Ravenheart).

I am not the Dr. Banzai from Facebook/Youtube. That person is a hateful person that does not represent the spirit of Buckaroo Banzai nor its fandom.

I lurked a bit on the HMPro forums I know, but the withdrawal symptoms include memory loss.  The past few days are all a haze!

I showed severe signs of deprivation  #P
Besides these minor issues, I created the next game coming Sunday in Berlin, Germany. We will propably play a track from the new Falcon Incursion PDF.

In the end I am so glad that the forums are back online, as I love to read the various topics and I especially missed the posts with painted minis....gave me a lot inspiration.

I hid in New Vegas, with a riot shotgun clutched tightly to my chest and a group of Fiends taunting me as they searched, never knowing I was already moving to an ambush position and pulling out the anti-materiel rifle...

I hung out mostly over at the HMPro boards like I usually do, but I hit up a few other places as well.  The hard part was checking back here all weekend as if it was some bad dream.
