it's been a bit of time since I posted here and my life has changed since then. I've since moved out of tx and have relocated to Chicago, switched from music to math in school and now work at a perfume shop helping old ladies and young men make just the right scent for themselves/girlfriends. it's an odd job but leaves me with an interesting smell :p

When I'm not playing avalon like an addicted fool, I'm probably going to shows or attempting to do something productive.

I feel the need to post now!

Well, I played Avalon from 2000 to 2004 and then went out and got a tan (well, as much as you can get in the UK) for 5 years until now!  I must admit the nights drawing in and less time (aka none) out on the water made me resub and see what's going down in goblin town.

I have my own business which provides payroll print solutions primarily but am in the process of selling off a part hopefully!  So until then I'll probably have some mad moments of work and such.

I now live on the south coast near Bournemouth and wished I moved here 10 years ago.  Definately looking forward to another meet sometime.

Btw, what's all this globe crap and omg, warfare sucks donkey balls!

*befuddled old mage enters* Hmmm...now, what is this? *ponders as everyone stares* Oh! I remember now! Who I am, in reality, eh? Well...You can call me Khelbyn Whitestaff, Light-Bringer. *looks confused as his handler whispers in his ear* OH! Oh. *chuckles* Well, of course! I should have known. Well, then. I am called Brandon...I think...? *looks to his handler for confirmation, then continues after he nods* Yes! Brandon. I am sixteen years old, roundabouts, a home-schooled senior in High School. I hang my hat in Mississippi (Gulf Coast), as well as on my ole crawfishin farm out in ma birthstate, Louisiana. I've played Runescape way back when...Then World of Warcraft, particularly loving the RPing aspect. And recently, I've found Avalon, and promptly tried it out, and come to love it! WoW and RS are things of the past now. Hmmm...if anyone wishes to pose a question to me, about IRL things, then please do so! Or email me, brandonkrandle@yahoo.com. And if you ever need help with anything, I'm here!!! Though I'm a stranger, and it might seem odd, I still offer my ear and my aid.

Hey all, saw this thread hasn't been poked in quite a while so what the hell...

I'm Garrett, 17 and a senior in Highschool. I'm usually found in the Central Valley of California, near Fresno and such. I'm graduating early in about a week or two and then am shipping out to Army Basic Training about 2 months after that... Any other questions, let me know. I love the idea of having a California meet sometime soon, especially before I leave for basic! Any questions, feel free to ask.

Your not allowed to love me. Hating me, on the other hand, is totally acceptable.

Jason, formerly of Cincinnati, Ohio, formerly of Indianapolis, Indiana, Currently of Raleigh, North Carolina.

I'm married with no kiddos (yet) unless my beagle counts. I've been playing Avalon for more than 10 years now which puts me as having played more than half of some of your lives and more than a 1/3 of my own. Scary thoughts.

I work here there and everywhere, having 6 years of college and no degree thanks to my propensity for switching majors. I'll make up my mind and finish one of the three I started at some point but in the meantime I do freelance graphic design and split my PC gaming time between Avalon and Eve Online.

Just popping in to say hi and give a quick update to those who remember me! I'm still working for Playstation as a video game tester, augmenting that meagre pay with teaching work. Using my non-Avalon time to devote myself to team sports again (adult water polo league!) and career advancement. Come fall, I start night class study for a second degree, in computer science! Hope everyone is doing well!

For those of you in the dark -
I'm Lizzy... the creator of this thread!

Things have changed a bit...
I'm now 22 and have a degree in Graphic Design.
Didn't end up moving to California, instead I've been working as a full time web designer for a company near Greensboro, NC. Coming up on my 3 year anniversary.

Quick Avalon History...
I started playing Legends in 2003, after a couple years, I quit and got a life for a few minutes. I ended up coming back, in the form of a First-Ager in 2007, then had my character migrated over to Legends earlier this year. I still frequent FA, and I'm known to pop my head in Legends every once in a while!

Alos, between FA and Legends there are a ton of North Carolinians... I'm thinkin' a meet is in order for us.
