I originally joined these forums around Easter 2003, but then I just sort of disappeared.

Extra:

I used to come here to get/give help with programming Battle.net bots, however I eventually postponed my bot projects to further my knowledge of PHP. Eventually I left bot developement all together to help the gaming community on a wider scale. Currently I'm doing so as a staff member of the Pro Gamers Tour which is a public ladder for Brood War. I came back to these forums to chat and hopefully learn something usefull about life

More (outdated) information about me can be found in my old introduction post here.

Updates not already covered:

1) I didn't get a chance to take my MCP certification exam before they stopped doing it. Although I scored 80% and higher on the practice exams so I'm positive I would have got it.
2) {LTK}VeGiTo316 was deleted from battle.net last month. LoRd]VeGiTo[ still exists but I'm more commonly found on Laverick (all servers).
3) I'm rarely on Battle.net's servers anymore, you'd be better off finding me on PGTour's bnetx.pgtour.net server.
4) I'm no longer rated on the Battle.net Ladder, however I'm undefeated on PGTour (granted, I've only played two games).
5) If I'm on Battle.net at all, you won't find me in any specific channel anymore, I just float around.


To those who are still reading this, you must be as bored as I am.

Yes another LOTR fan

[Laverick]

I'm not just a LOTR fan, I'm more of a LOTR nerd. I can speak Elvish...

The text under my avatar is a combination of elvish languages which tanslates to "My life, my game, my world"

So what was the deal with Tom Bombadil?

[topaz]

Reminds me of DM with shades.

[Laverick]

What about Bombadil?

Hey take that quiz and see what you get

[Laverick]

"Victory!...you have made it to the House of Elrond without being caught by the Black Riders. The first part of your journey has been completed but there is much more trouble up ahead."

Your Evaluation:
Correct Answers: 15
Wrong Answers: 0

"Fantastic, not one mistake! You have a lot of potential...in fact you remind me of myself when I was your age. I am confident you will be able to impress we again in the second Level."

That's an interesting quiz I'll have to finish it at a later time though.

Ai na veduin dunadin. Mae govannen!

Looks like I'm not the only LotR nerd here anymore. Woo!

@Quidditch World Cup, I put that down too, but only because I couldn't think of anything else.

EDIT -
Come to think about it, what does the Elvish word nin mean anyhow? I've seen it used as water, world, and voice.

Nin o chitaglir lasto beth daer, rimmo nin bruinen dan in ulaer
Lasto beth nin, tolo dan na ngalad

[Laverick]

Well met indeed... lol...

I've never seen nin used as those examples... in Quenya it means something like "for me", but I used the Sindarin form which means "me" or "my". Nín in Sindarin can also mean "tear".

[Joe[x86]]

Yeah, I was refering to Sindarin.
