*dusts cobwebs from forum login*

Hello!

Anyone remember me? I've been AWOL from the forums and IRC, that half of you probably won't :P

Good to see that the forums are as robust as ever, and that a good number of the old regulars are still visiting.

Basically I wanted to drop in... tell people I still existed and that I do (gasp!) still check back here once in a while to see what everyone's up to :)

I've been pretty inactive since... well... Christmas, really on account of:
Getting Married Going on a honeymoon Getting a new job Getting a dog Generally doing stuff in my free time


Ideally, I'll try and get online a bit more now, but there's no guarentees. I can't idle in IRC whilst I'm at work these days, which is a pity.

Guess I'll keep popping by and dropping in once in a while. Definitely be seeing you guys online with the Wii (how exciting is that going to be?) and feel free to add me to your XBL friends list, if you're not already on there :)

See you around - Schpickles

Oh... PS... my website's shafted on account of SPAM taking over the blog system, and me having to delete it's database. I'll fix it... one day :/

Glad to see you're doing okay. You need to post more so we don't feel like such wasters. Damn you and your fulfilling life!
Doctored to put forward my opinion under the guise of someone else.

Howdy Schpickles! Guess you're loving the new job still! I've seen you playing some Oblivion on Xbox 360, still not got all 1000 achievements though. COME ON SCHPICKLES! GET INTO THE TRANCE! *Aka Lumines style*

Good to hear that you are doing cool. If you ever get any free time, you should check some random videos I did on my gamespot profile page! Be good to hear from you :)

Good to see you're still around in some shape or form. So where you working nowadays anyway? And what happened at Hothouse Creations then?

Ah, Schpickles. You remind me of long gone days, that of maroon coloured n64-europe, being kicked from irc and rediculously long posts that I could never be bothered to read.

As another legen'ary forumite once said to me:

Stick around, or the around will stick you.

Nice that so many people remember me :P

Life's good - fairly frantic what with the job and a young dog and all... married life is great though :)

Good to see you're still around in some shape or form. So where you working nowadays anyway? And what happened at Hothouse Creations then?

I got pretty frustrated and left Hothouse in January. Eventually their parent company pulled the plug on them, and everyone's gone their seperate ways. Pretty sad really.

I'm working at Pivotal Games now, which is a much bigger, more successful company. It's been a steep learning curve but it's very enjoyable :)
