It is, although I don't want all the newbies getting the points that I can have for myslelf.
If you hit Colonesque, you get 10 points. It's just too easy.

Well there is quite a bit of space between those things you call ears my friend. As for lying dead in a gutter, that would probably be a better level of accomodation than i'm used to at the moment. :( (Poor Bob and poor Kenny)

1) what formed the motivational impetus for your chosen screenname?

This is the name I've used since I first went online way back when... just gathering together three of my favourite things.


2) Are you male or female? (Asking because there has been quite of lot of confusion over this, on and off.)

Is there a third option with this? (nah... female)

3) what age catagory and geographic location do you fall into?

third decade & New Zealand

4) do you have good faith that a discworld movie COULD be done well enough not to suck? (note, this in no way shape or form asks about casting choices you'd like to see. i have a loaded rifle and i'm not afraid to use it.)


Maybe if Peter Jackson did it... otherwise nah...

5) who or how were you turned on to discworld/pratchett?

read Colour of Magic when it was first published after my brother recommended it to me...

6) what's your personal quote of the day?

Do I look like a people person?


not that I'm exactly a newbie... used to post on the old board but had a year or so hiatus due to personal reasons...

1) what formed the motivational impetus for your chosen screenname?
impetus yourself !!!
Ok, ok, it's the first bit of my first name and the first bit of my (brand new ) surname. Sorry, I always wish I could find a really witty nickname for this kind of forum, but when it actually comes down to it, this one is easy to remember...

2) Are you male or female? (Asking because there has been quite of lot of confusion over this, on and off.)
Oh, really ? Who was confused about being a male or female ?

Huh ?

Oh, about other people being males or females, ok, right...

Huh ?

Oh, me ? Female **checking** yep, definitely female.

3) what age catagory and geographic location do you fall into?

What's an age category ? like "too young to be listened to", "the age where your parents are idiots and noone understands you", "old enough to be listened to, but not enough to have anything worth saying", "am I really that old ?", "oh, I wasn't that old after all, but now I'm older...", "over the hill and climbing the next one", "dead, and still no one listens to me".

Er... that makes me 27, and living in Toulouse, in the south west part of France.

4) do you have good faith that a discworld movie COULD be done well enough not to suck? (note, this in no way shape or form asks about casting choices you'd like to see. i have a loaded rifle and i'm not afraid to use it.)
Now I DEFINITELY think that DiCaprio would make a really convincing troll... no ??? ok, ok, drop the rifle, I was kidding... Yeah, in an ideal world, TP's books could be great movies. But they would have to have unlimited budgets, and be made by REAL fans who actually understand ALL the words in the books, get ALL the jokes and Terry would have to be part of the project or I'm just not doing it !

5) who or how were you turned on to discworld/pratchett?
My big bro' gave me good omens for christmas in 1990, just after my parents, my sister and I moved to this crazy country. "I think he's written a couple of other books, but this one is good..."
I've been hooked ever since. Thanks bro'...
(and later, I realised that I had read Strata may years before that, but had completely forgotten it... Duh !)

6) what's your personal quote of the day?
"There are ten kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't."

But I must admit my all-time favorite quote is... "Ooook"... says it all, doesn't it !


Damn Spider pig
