2) Where do you see yourself in 6 years? (both location AND career wise :D )

This seems to be true. However, Malcolm also means dove! :D
Ah well, we'll be two doves, Madman [img]tongue.gif[/img] As for the question: 2) Hard to say, as I'm off to university this coming September. I've been focussing on getting there, not what happens after. I'll be there for at least 3 years, mroe likely 4, if I do the co-op program with a year of work in the middle. Then I might go straight to a Masters, for another year or two. After that, I may reapply to join the Royal Air Force. Or else I may try and get work in Canada or the US, or else return to the UK, where I'll not need a work permit. As far as career wise, if I'm in the RAF, I'll be a relatively new Engineer Officer in the force, if not, I'll hopefully be working for a computer firm, either in research, or systems design. Or cleaning dustbins. Who knows? |
3. Why British Columbia for University?
|
4) Cheeseburger or Filet Mignon? (hah! beat him to it this time!! [img]tongue.gif[/img] )
|
5. When you have a day to yourself, what do you do?
|
3. Canada was cheaper than the UK and the US, which was why I started looking, and BC was recommended by a teacher who went there. Checked it out, and it sounded an amazing place to go. :D
4) Cheeseburger. All the way. McDonald's Double Cheeseburger if possible :D 5. Waste it online. Ooh look, its holidays, and I have the day to myself, and here I am on Ironworks answering questions about what I do when I have a day to myself. And the next answerer shall be Madman-Rogovich, on account of having the same name as me. Almost. I'll forgive you the L [img]tongue.gif[/img] Now I haven't been reading the thread, so if he has already answered, Ivellis gets the next answer session, for agreeing with me :D [ 07-30-2006, 01:26 PM: Message edited by: Callum ] |

1. If (after death) you could come back as an animal, what animal would it be and why?
|
2. Imagine you are leading men in battle. you are cut off and need to retreat. there are two options. The first way, you are guaranteed to lose half your men. No more, no less. the other way has a 50% chance of losing ALL your men, but a 50% chance they will all survive. Which way do you go?
|
1. I'd quite like to be a monkey. Not a gorilla or baboon, one of those little fast monkeys that can really dart about the trees. I think it'd just be cool to be free and go to the canopy of the rainforests and swing about all day...*blush*
Showing my childish tendancies with that answer *grin* 2. This is a toughy. Usually after a bit of self-prompting I take risks, be it saying something to someone or doing something a bit rash or whatever, so I'd go for lead them for the daring way. If we perish, well it's a risk we'll have to take. Probably showing how stupid I am though, risking everyones life. Then again, how unfair is it if half the men can survive, but the others must perish. Either we all die, or no one dies *grin* |
3. Since we are on topic of taking risks:
here is a game: you have 50$ to divide between you and another person. You go first. You can take howevermuch you want, but then the other person can either accept it and take the rest, or refuse it and you both take nothing. So how much would you take? And if it was the other person going first, would you accept his decision and take howevermuch he left you even if it is little, or would you refuse if he takes too much and leaves you too little (how much that little would have to be for you to refuse)? 4. What were you scared of when you were a little kid (as in real little as early as you can remember)? What about later (bigger kid)? What about now? Do you have any chronic phobias? |

3. Right, it's early so I've read this question three times and it still doesn't make sense *grin*
Although to be honest, it depends entirely on the other person, but for arguments sakes let's just say it was an everyday stranger. I would split it straight down the middle, $25 each, for fairness. However, if he offered me less than $25 I'd be spiteful and teach the greedy so-and-so a lesson by refusing and no one getting any money. Too little would be less than $25 me thinks, just because I wouldn't think it was fair on me if the other random person got more, just because he/she was greedy, you get me? 4. As a little kid I remember going to my nanas and watching Crimewatch (I was about 3 year old) and in this particular episode a girl tried to squeeze through the gap between her house and her garage as some boys were teasing them and they weren't allowed in the house. So this one girl gets stuck, and the fire brigade come and rescue her and cut her out and all this. And I remember I couldn't sleep because of it. Looking back now I have no clue what I found so scary about it, but I was terrified. Oh and burglars. I was terrified that we'd be burgled one day, so I kept a baseball bat under my bed. I'm sure a three year old wielding a foam-covered baseball bat would terrify even the most seasoned burglar *snickers* As a bigger kid? Erm...taking big kid as about 10-11ish, and I honestly can't think of anything I feared. I mean, I was scared of things, but none that strike me as phobia-esque. Now? I've accepted fear is all in the head, so even if I'm a bit reclutant to do something, say as little as pick up a daddy-long-legs that is fluttering about so I can't go to sleep. (that is one thing I hate, when you start to drift to sleep and you see a moth or something fluttering about *screams* Not sure if that's a fear or not.) Erm, yeah, hope that answered your question [img]tongue.gif[/img] 5. I'm not 100% sure what Fillet mingon is *blushes* I think it's a steak, in that case it's a tough choice. The steak I last had, a real steak not a Tesco's own frozen one, was when we went to Florida and was in a proper steakhouse..it was lovely! Although a cheeseburger...you can't beat a good ol' cheeseburger...so that's my answer! Next up (he isn't on the list of past-answerers so I'll assume ZFR is right ;) ) is SecretMaster! I had so much trouble getting this to post. Kept blabbing on about HTML tags...in the end it wouldn't let me put a less than sign < and a dollar sign $ next to each other *shrugs* |
I was gonna make a thread out of this question a while back, but anyways:
1. What is your most memorable/enjoyable gaming moment (or single gaming session) of all time. (Can be any genre or gaming format: console, pc, coin-grabber etc.) And why? |
2. What's something unique about you?
|
3. Are you superstitious? (not walking under ladders or whatnot?) And if you are, what kind of things are you superstitious about?
|
4) What would your ideal job be, and why?
|
5) you have a choice. Either you die, or 1,000 innocent people you have never met die. which is it, and why?
|
Was there a Bucky Cat convention that slipped us by? Where has he been? SecretMaster?..
|
Do I need to pick someone else?
(I knew the person I picked would just disappear *grumble*) |
Shoot him a PM, and if he doesn't respond in a day or so, go for someone else.
Leastways, that's my thought on the matter. |
The deed is done.
|
Apparently I just fail at keeping track of the threads I post in. Sorry about that.
1. My most memorable moment in gaming was probably in Morrowind. I remember getting myself completely lost on my way to Balmora and I thought I was screwed. I remember getting fed up with following roads so I ran through the wilderness like a madman, found another city and then used fast travel to get to Balmora. 2. Something unique about me. I haven't listened to any other music aside from Pink Floyd in like 3 years. I'm that obsessed. 3. Yeah I am to an extent. I don't believe in that black cat bad luck crap. But rather in the supernatural if you will. I do Tarot readings (I'm quite big on that), I believe in spirits and all that wonderful stuff. 4. I'm still trying to figure out an ideal job. I'd love to go into the gaming industry and I am looking at it. Mainly because my earliest childhood memories were literally of playing games. I was playing Doom when I was 4, Daggerfall when I was 6. I loved those old RPG's, Crusaders of the Dark Savant, Anvil of Dawn, DM II: Skullkeep. That was my childhood and I really wish we could find more games like that nowadays instead of crappy WoW. 5. I die. Morally/Ethically I couldn't live with myself if I let 1000 people die. I'd feel like a monster, and in many ways I would be one. From the greater picture, 1000 people are much more important than one. The people they know, the ties they have. The amount of damage I would do would drive me to insanity and most likely suicide. Captain Obvious, its your turn since I think you are the only one who hasn't been asked questions. And again, my apologies for simply ignoring this thread. I didn't think I had posted in awhile. |
*cries*
I swear I didn't mean to kill it! This is gonna rest on my conscience forever. SecretMaster: Bane of all threads. |
Ahh... someone's got to ask a question!
Okay.... 1. Boxers or briefs? 2. Favorite CRPG? |
Besides New Zealand what country would you like to live in and why?
|
4) How long have you been married? Any kids or plan for kids?
|
Is it really all that obvious?
|
righty, here goes:
1) Boxers. no more need be said 2) Forgive the ignorance, but i am not entirely sure what 'CRPG' stands for - if it means Character RPG, then i guess the Old Daggerfall game was pretty good. I actually found that game more enjoyable than Morrowind (havent played oblivion) if CRPG stands for something else, i have just proven my stupidity. 3) if i wasnt living in NZ, i would like to give Holland or the UK a go. Holland because my wife is dutch, and the UK becasue well, pretty much every Kiwi heads there for their OE 4) married since March 2005. No kids as yet, although we cant wait... we are just building up, getting careers underway, need to travel, want to pay off the mortgage first etc. The current plan is to start in a couple of years. We are sad engough that we have already named them tho... 5) Obviously not! Actually, Captian Obvious was my second choice of name here - my first choice was taken by soemone, although i have never seen them so i guess it is an old member who doenst come by any longer. Ok, I dont think RobertTheBard has answered yet, so lets put him in the hot seat! [ 08-20-2006, 04:16 PM: Message edited by: Captain Obvious ] |
I have answered, but I ain't afeared...
|
ZFR's got a list of who's answered on page 6, about 3 page-downs down...
While we're waiting, why didn't you ask Captain Obvious your usual question, RtB? Or were you asking it, and he didn't realize it? :D |
I upadted that list. For easier reference I've put it on the first post of this thread too.
There is no mention in the rules that a person cannot answer twice, so if you want to continue with robertthebard being the answerer, go ahead. [ 08-21-2006, 03:23 PM: Message edited by: ZFR ] |
I might come back to it later, but it kinda lost it's novelty for a minute...No worries though, the next victim, er, member, will probably get it.
|
Umm, is there anyone who has NOT answered? if so, they are next!
|
I don't know, I think you were the last one Captain, when I picked you. Time to start advertising.
