Hello Purvis:

Yes!

Mostly via iichan. I used to hang out on /azu/, back in the mid to late aughts, and would look around the other boards, and I'd always see it. Then one day, I IMed my old buddy E-mouse after some time of silence, and asked him about some Mother series things (I had recently completed Mother 3 and Earthbound, and had some things to quiz him on.) Then I asked him what he was up to, he told me he'd been hanging around here and poosh, so I asked him for the details. Soon after, when I got around to trying PCB (having cut my teeth on rRootage and Warning Forever prior), I really got into it; from there he introduced me to various doujins. Couple months later, I asked him about that forum he kept mentioning, and dropped in one 3 AM. It was the most important day in this forum's history.

Are you my favorite?

But of course!

--- End quote ---
That depends on the decision, don't you think? For instance, decisions related to makeouts most definitely involve high degrees of favoritism under normal circumstances.

--- End quote ---
It began in the heady days of the '96 election, when I would do a generic old man impersonation of Bob Dole. Later, as the election ended, I continued to do it as a generic old man. My Dad, easily amused by memes of all sorts, quickly labeled this Uncle Pervy. The name has stuck with me since, mutating in various ways.

I can't handle sacred grounds normally. That just makes my soul hurt.

Do you think you can win Genso Monopoly? You've missed a lot of aggressive plays that would have crippled the other guys.
