I have just read some of the forums here, and I have just relized that most of the people here have opened up to ac. I first remember back in the day when we all were on TG's server playing around all innocent to the game. And Bob(if I remember correctly) started calling Amy is mommy or something like that than he started with the [Ac] tag and eventually the people the played with Amy, and friends of the friends of the friends that played with Amy started wearing the tag(I know that sentence isn't even correct English). Know you guys know it as [AC] and well to be honest I don't really think this is even a clan but just friends enjoying a great time with each other and opening up to everyone else. Let's get started everyone. The reason I made this thread is that not enough people know about each other( or it's just me ^^). I know not alot of people know who I am but the people that do know me, don't even know me that well. And I am just here to tell everyone else who I am, and I hope everyone else does the same. Well as you all know me, my name is Moe(Mohamed) Yousuf, I am curently in grade 12(graduating this year ^^) and I hope I go to university(if not college than transfer), and end up being a dentist. That's me just shorting everything down. Well currently I go to night school every monday and Wednesday(and I just finished most of my calculus homework and I will go straight to bed right after this post). And I just got me a job at Boy's & Girls club of London(it's a center where kids have fun, where their's alot of programs for them to do-site- www.bgclondon.ca) I am not sure how much I get paid, but I will tell you on Tuesday[tuesday, Thursday and X(unknown)] is the day's I work. That's alot of thing's I have said so far, but you might be wondering why don't I have friend's that play this game. Well they all go to college, and some go to Uni(I am only one left, because I went to Africa for a whole years vacation on my grade 11th year, and since Somalia doesn't have any recognition as of any Government system they didn't expect my grade 11 criedt's so I had to do them last year and I am here doing my grade 12). Any ways back to my friend's, they are all counsel fan's so since I am only one with a big family. That's why I am only one that play's the PC. It end this I will also end it with another thing about my personality, I am always and will always ever be funny, easy going, very sensitive(social, I have a problem opening up to people, I just talk to people to know me as of me(my problem) and shut any other person that come's even as close as my friend's friend). Well the reason why I have final opened up to [Ac] is because right now I see all these new-members that joined me and I have no-clue who they are, I have seen some cs:s player go by, like for ex: bill, cowboy, miller's...etc. And that I just really miss them, they have be, to be honest really fun and I have loads of conversation with them that I really liked. And know I look at where they went where I am, and I ask myself. "Am I a part of [AC] or am I just kidding my self, or should I lock this out of my head as I have to many other things that I dearly miss?" So here I am that's me you guy's and gals, I hope you guy's/gals open up and just learn about each other as much as I have today. [out of all honesty, all I just wanted to achieve on this thread is people to know who the other AC members are, and in the end, that we end up with the conclusion that we are just a family of friend's] P.S. I know it's long but seriously I just opened-up, anything from here on end you guys know who I am, since you have read I hope you guys unerstand how hard it is for me to just open up.

Post by Eno on Nov 8, 2005 0:09:33 GMT -5
hi im eno my name is Jason Bobowski, i live in the very boring kansas... and hate it. im going to a community college here, although its one of the top 5 in the country, so its awsome. i work as a cook at a bar called fuel, and enjoy that, since the cute waitresses get up on the bar and dance ;P oh and the free meals oh and the money. became a reg on TG with amy and them and was th eone who (as a joke) had the idea of making a clan... i dont quite understand what happened after that but people didnt think i was kidding i guess... and yes this has always been more of a family than a clan because we are laid back and are here for a good time, real clans playing in legues dont see this as a game but almost as a job and i could never do that, the words 'manditory' and 'game' shouldnt ever be used together. and i have an slick lil camera and enjoy taking pictures ^_^ oh ya im 19 too and have a webserver set up in my basement

Hi. My name is Soyombo Enkhtor. I'm 20 years old live in Arlington, Virginia. I'm from Mongolia (Hint: Genghis Khan, breaking walls, "God damn mongolians!", etc.). My parents used to work in foreign affairs so I moved around quite a bit. From 4th grade I moved from Mongolia to Bulgaria. Lived there for 3 years and spent summer vacations in Czech Republic and Poland. We moved here in 2000 and been permanent residents ever since. I graduated high school here in 2003 and went straight to college. Right now I'm a junior in George Mason University with a major in Art and Visual Tech. I enjoy playing CSS, watching movies, long walks on the beach....wait thats not it. I work at a construction company that does home remodeling. I joined [AC] about an hour after it was formed. I also used to play on the grounds with all the regulars so it was only natural that we all formed a tight community. I love CS but as Eno said it should not be taken anything more than just a game. Did I mension I like cheese. Well I like cheese. CHEESE! I can eat cheese just plain. I can eat cheese after melting it on a bread. I can eat cheese with ketchup. I can eat cheese with cheese. Well you get the point.

Everyone move to the side its attention PUPPIES! Clockwork's turn! Anyway, Hi. (looks at cue card) My name is Michael Dionne and I exisist..........and thats mostly it. But seriously, I am 18 was a junior at University of Texas but changed majors to Medieval History (woooh) and so I am a sophmore again for this major plan. Hobbies: Joking around, if I am not joking around, something is wrong with the world (even when I am depressed I still crack jokes at myself) I find life easier to get through if you don't take it seriously. And I obey ever whim of the wonderful woman (she was looking over my shoulder *phew* safe) and I too like long walks on the beach, in the middle of Texas. Anyhow, real hobbies, I like to map for source (just found that out) and give swordplay lessons at the University (its not just my job, its my hobby), I like guns, guns are always fun and I like to learn about the occult (thankfully I am minoring in Latin because all the REAL occult books the Catholic Chruch publishes and I can't stand people who study "real occult") well I only study it because its interesting to see what people used to think of things they couldn't describe. I care very little about money and prize being happy more (hence the major that does nothing really). I was abducted by Kami and throw into AC. I have a very shady past that I don't like to talk about very much because it doesnt effect me now. That wraps up Clock's fun post. Now be blinded by the SHEER AND UTTER BEAUTY!!! *cough* That hurt to say..... Life is too funny not to laugh at.

Post by Lepper on Nov 8, 2005 2:06:43 GMT -5
Hi, I'm Dru....(everyone "Hello Dru") I am known as Dru Lepper, for I have no real name. The story behing Lepper is not an interesting one so i will leave it off. I have been playing Half Life since it came out. I joined the grounds after eno told me to (i was looking for a server and he was playign in it) There I met many new and very cool folks. I ended up setting up a very crappy site for AC and kinda jsut worked with that. At the grounds I met the wonderful Amy. and one thing led to another and we began to date (going out on dates one a month (;-) )... i hate distance). Ok that was about how i got here. But about me... hmmmmm.... I like coats and hats. I have a slight OCD with coats and the hats i just like. I always have to have both on. I live in kansas (should change soon). I am 19 (less then 2 months from 20). I work at a large hotel and enjoy my job (oo how i long for a desk). I work 2nd shift so i barely ever get to talk to anyone anymore and playing ... yeah i rarely do that. (on my days off i try and get on though. I watch a lot of movies and anime and cartoons and anything i can get onto my computer. I host a site from my computer (lepper.is-a-geek.com) (yes i know it is a black page but I am upgrading and creating a new site) I love working with sound and lights. esp sound editing. Work is work. all manual labor but thats fine. there is talk about me becoming a superviser for part of the week which is what i do now most of the tiem but with more pay (i hope i get that soon). The hotel keeps its employees happy and I enjoy it very much. I am a geek. and I heart my computers. I am currently hackinga case up because I was bored and want to change the layout of it. I work mainly with hardware and not so much software. I am also working on creating a high quality sound input system to edit and record music for many medium. I am just kinda typin because noone is on. So i will type more. Most people do not know much about my past and thats ok with me. A few know a good bit of the stories but almost all do not know everything. But i love to listen to people. Stories fasinate me. I don't have many good ones but I will just sit and listen and be very happy. I have been nicknamed by a frind ESA .... wait thats a diffrent story. And beware if i start to act weird in diffrent situations I have my reasons. But yeah thats kinda me. Sorry its 2 Am and noone shoudl listen to me after 1. And for a picture look in the Pictures section of the website. -Lepper Edit: here's Leppy :-P (you can get me later Dru)

;D, yaaa I influenced you guys to open up woot's(does a Kirby dance inside his mind, at class right now) I really do like what all of you have said, and I really understand where's sas is coming form. But in my younger years I was never open I have always and I always be the very shy kid at the corner you will see(I have managed my way alone, and it should be that way forever). Any who cheese and ketchup . I have know you and Amy were close but not that closer, congrats. But I like mango, I would go nuts for mango, that is if I smell it and I will hunt down who ever has it and beg if I can have 3/4 of it.

Post by Amy on Nov 8, 2005 9:53:59 GMT -5
Hi my name is Amy... some of you know the last name, some of you don't. I can tolerate being called almost anything (besides bitch, PUPPIES!, slut, etc) as long as its good natured. I live in chicago, just graduated from good ole DU in the spring and am working full time at a company in a section of it that "doesn't exist" Thats what my BS in bio-chem got me. Currently seeking a better job, as this is a seasonal one, and I'm not well paid >< At home I'm usually around the birds, but lately I have been bad at taking care of everyone (work just wears me out) so my dad has been doing a hell of a lot for them. I have a very boring life, I work, play css, sometimes do cool things like ACEN. I am NOT a people person. Infact about 90% of them should be shot, hung, or otherwise done away with for their stupidity. (you people are in the remaining ten percent). Politics is something that is best left untouched, same with religion, and uh most of the news. Most people either come to understand me and accept me, or they will never see my pov, and wind up hating me. There is very little inbetween, but I can usually befriend almost anyone-- I mean just look at you guys Thats me in the Bahamas last year when I went on the Shedd Aquariums research vessel for nine days and paid to be "slave labor" ^_^

Post by Chim on Nov 8, 2005 10:45:27 GMT -5
Who is this Chim guy anyway?!
My family and my coworkers call me Andrew. All my friends call me Chim - I don't even answer to the name Andrew when I'm around them.
I started playing Counter-Strike back in 2001 or so. I ran my own clan, the Kilroy clan, with my brother and a couple of close friends until our server host screwed us over and went to jail =P. Anyway, since then, I've been looking for a place to call home and I believe I've found it at AC. I know Eno and Lepper IRL and they brought me to the Grounds and AC. I choose to remain clanless. The d20 tag that I sport is only so my rl friends can find me on servers (they also all sport the d20 tag - it's a 20 sided die btw).
I now live in Leavenworth (about an hour away from everyone in Kansas City). I work for a company who contracts for the Army and I'm an audio/video tech for BCTP (Battle Command Training Program). They run war games and such for different divisions, units, cores, etc of the Army and I get to travel around to help support them. I've been to Korea and Texas so far. Soon, I'll be going to Germany (3 different times and places), Indiana, and again.... Texas (I hate Texas).
I am a geek. Probably one of the biggest geeks here. I have so many interests it's hard to list them all here. But here are some: Gaming (Computer, Video, Role Play, Tabletop, Card), Technology, Comics, Poker, Weapons, Cars, Basketball, Movies, TV, Music, Books, Pool.
I'm pretty easy going and fairly easy to get along with. I try to give everyone a chance or two before I decide what I think about them. I joke around A LOT. This world is far too serious for the likes of me. I'm definitely a pleaser-person - I try to make everyone as happy and as comfortable as I can. But then, I can be a real ass hole, too - mostly just joking around, though. I don't think I'll post a pic because all the ones I take of me, I just don't like. I think I have a different "residual self image" of myself, I dunno.

Let's see: My real name is Darrell. I'm the conferences program manager and web master for a mathematics association. I'm married, have 2 houses, a baby on the way, and the wife and I love to travel. We've been to france, china, tibet, all over the US, and visited the island up north called Canada (various bits.) Very unusual for a kid that grew up dirt poor in a drug infested neighborhood! While I was born in Philly, my family is originally from Mississippi. (Coincidentally, my cousin just found a random corpse in her backyard, thanks to Katrina. So far, they think it's a body from a cemetary. DAMN THOSE WALKING DEAD!) I'm into exercise bigtime. I've trained in the martial arts since I was 15, enjoyed a brief tournament lifestyle, and have a love for music. I have alot of that under the belt too I have two dogs named Cozmo and Diablo!

My name is Matt and I am currently residing on the west side of Columbus, Ohio. Most recently, I started working for Delphi Thermal and Interior, Columbus as a Manufacturing Engineer. I am working on a variety of projects concurrently. Most of them deal with reduction of material usage and packaging, but I am also working on a new product startup. The product launch / startup is a latch and lock system for several small cars and SUVs. The target is to hit 7.2 million of these latches over the next 3 years - it's fun as hell getting to play with the new equipment I grew up in a rural community just outside of civilization and sanity. Because of this location, I had a relatively quite upbringing. Most of the people around me were either on welfare of some sort or, farmers, or vagrants. Appalachia is what the outside world calls it. To give you more perspective, I'm the first person on my fathers side of the family that graduated high school, much less college (thanks Mom). This is not a rare thing in Appalachia. Due to the large distances between households, I have become very fond of my bicycle. My first job was at a fruit farm 7.5 miles from my home. I would ride my bike to get there, pick strawberries from 7:00am until 11:00 am, eat lunch (provided by the farm), pull weeds, until 4:00pm, maybe much out some stalls, and then ride home with my $20 feeling rich. That kind of labor made me very eager to get an education and get the hell out of that arm pit. My brother is in college studying Bio-Chemistry, my Mom teaches mentally challenged individuals, and I have a B.S. in Manufacturing / Mechanical Engineering. I still rather enjoy a good bike ride if any of you are cyclists. I also enjoy hitting the gym a few times per week for some strength training and meeting cute girls that turn me down 90% of the time, but hey, what's life w/o a little adventure? On the weekends, you can find me at home most of the time, but I do go out to bars, clubs, sports games, and the orchestra now and again. If I'm at home, I'm usually reading something, cooking, or playing CS with you guys and gals. The following is a picture of me that's about a year ago while my lab partner an I were testing an EKG machine we simulated in LabVIEW. The picture was taken by my lab partner. Notice that I'm pimping the University of Dayton with my awesome green hat BTW, I'm well aware of the fact that the wave form displayed is not correct. I had to take my shirt off in oder to get a proper reading. The static electricity in my shirt kept interfering with the relatively weak signal the human body generates.

hello my name is will and i live in seattle. the damn rainiest city in the whole damn world. i was wandering around in CSS a while back and went into your server and was amazed by how much fun you guys are. anyways im 20. im in colledge right now and trying to decide between pre-med and genetics. ive been playing the electric guitar for about 3-4 years. not in a band yet but i do have some songs that ive made that i think are pretty cool. umm i go by the name jackle cause back when i played goldeneye for 64 my brother used to bitch about me running in and killing him and his target before i knew i was there. so he called me a jackle and i decided that it sounded kinda cool plus it pissed him off. plus i dont know if any of you know this but there was a film several years back called THE JACKLE. i always thought it was kinda cool cause of the big huge gun thats in it so i figured why not. oh and my favorite thing to wear is either a sailor hat and rubber gloves....or a big cheesy grin. muahahahahaha
