Title: Ice Encountered! Breaker Selected: Gordian Blade
Post by: Fig on 02 Oct 2014, 07:04
There's no time like the present to break the ice I suppose...

Hello everyone!  Long time QC reader (among other comics) and long time lurker here.  Usually I approach joining an online community the same I way I approach new social situations in real life: by avoiding them, but I figure if I want to change some of the more negative aspects of myself I need to start somewhere, baby steps as it were.  My non-internet name is Jeff (my parents opted for a more traditional spelling) and I hail from the 'great' state of Pennsylvania.  I work a menial job that I don't enjoy and I'm glad to have the distrations to help the day go along quicker.

When I'm not having my soul sucked away working for the man, I enjoy playing board and card games (one my current favorites being Android: Netrunner, as referenced in the title) with the few friends I do have and at my friendly local game shop.  I occasionally hop into the world of Azeroth and Star Wars by playing their respective MMOs, but I'm starting to find my interest in them waning as I get older, instead opting for the face to face interaction that comes with playing board games.  I do own a 3DS and I'm eagerly awaiting the releases of Pokemon Alpha Sapphire/ Omega Ruby and Super Smash Bros. 

I suppose I should wrap this up before I start to ramble...I hope I find myself intergrating into the community rather than awkwardly commenting from time to time and disappear again for long stretches of time. 

Cheers- Jeff 'Fig'

Welcome, read the rules, mind the gap, and guard your lug wrench.

And always know where your towel is.

My towel is currently at home on the towel rack in the bathroom.  I'd get a lot of strange looks if I showed up carrying a towel.  (Though I have a friend who insists I should show up for work wearing JUST a towel.)

Depending on where you're playing, sure and if you're playing against certain decks/players, you should probably bring your own.
