Heya! :3
I learned about Timās work when the Tokimeki Memorial video came out, found out about the podcast not long after and it ended up helping me get through my first two years of uni (doing sociology) and try assorted cool and neat things. Thought Iād finally get round to seeing what the forumās all about since the vibes seem chill and I mostly use social media to talk to my partners rather than any kind of ādiscourseā (positive or negative).
Currently living in Southampton in the UK for uni; English by birth, Irish by the grace of god (i.e. my familyās Irish but I was born in England). I speak English (obviously), German and kinda speak Japanese and Irish.
My first game was Sonic '06 when I stole my brotherās controller and sneakily started playing when he went to the toilet and since then Iāve been a dedicated slop-goblin. Sometimes I even play good games! Iām also a dedicated lover of āoldā and Japanese stuff especially if itās on the PS1, Saturn or Dreamcast.

Howdy yāall.
I started listening to the pod within the last year because I needed something on my commutes to and from work. Figured Iād join the forums for fun.
Iām a big fan of fighting games, arcades, and rpgs. But honestly I play anything that seems cool and interesting. Currently getting through SMT V Vengeance which is crazy good.
Outside of games I build and collect gunpla, love cooking, and like making fancy coffee. :)

Yo, Iām Spencer. I just started listening to the podcast a couple of weeks ago and Iāve already purchased Balan Wonderworld. Making an account here was the next logical step.
I donāt care to say what I do for a living, but Iāve drawn things occasionally and would like to get back to making comics but itās difficult to do. I have been writing some long-form fiction (I hesitate to refer to it as a novel) that Iāve been posting chapters of on a blog, but itās so hard to explain that I donāt often bring it up. Iāve also been known to whip out a screenplay or two in the past, but that didnāt really lead anywhere and I didnāt know what to do with it, so thatās kind of done for right now. Iām also considering doing some videos on youtube about games or comics or whatever, but I havenāt found just the right subject just yet, but Iām getting close.
When it comes to more general interests I love comics more than anything in the world. That being said, not much for superheroes. Iām also a big fan of weird movies, weird games (does that need to be said on this forum?), and techno. I probably listen to too much techno to the point where my streaming platform of choice said my listening habits are most in common with those in Brighton in the UK, which says a lot about me. I would like to think Jeff Minter and I have at least some musical taste in common.
Anyway, thatās whats up.

hi yāall, Iām Adam!
Iāve been listening to the podcast since last year, and finally decided to join the forum - Iāve been looking for something different from social media, and this seems like a nice corner of the internet
I live in the PNW, I like to play videogames (RPGs and narrative games especially), read sci fi and fantasy books as well as comics and manga, and listen to KEXP
I also like to make games and maintain a little engine for little games, worlds, and stories
when I have time I dabble in game boy photography and linocut and one of these days Iām going to get back into cycling
looking forward to meeting yāall!

Hi! Iāve been listening to the podcast on and off for about two years and frequently from the beginning of this year. Really enjoy hearing about all the Japanese games that I missed growing up.
I live in Finland (Iām one of the at least two listeners here) a country with game culture shaped by the Commodore 64, the demo scene, the colossal popularity of Playstation and mobile game studios built on the ruins of Nokiaās phone business.
I enojy games with turn-based combat, movies from the 70s, studying history and reading fantasy novels (big fan of Terry Pratchett and the Discworld books).

Welcome to the forums!
Hope you enjoy it with us and check out the Mug Check topic, which to make you feel even more at home as at least three Moomins in it.
So who or what is your favourite Discworld character? Of course after the luggage =)

Two of my favorite things. Maybe we should start a forum thread on one of these topics.

I have a copy of a Ps2 prototype from housemarque (built from two demoscene groups) that I got when I was out there - I really need to upload it somewhere at some point.
