heh, ok, so maybe that's not so funny anymore...

I'm SlicerSV... I use this name for just about any registration I do... oh, and there's a story behind it, I like stories, do you? Well... I hope you like stories, cuz there're gunna be quite a number of them incoming if I'm to become even slightly active around here.

So what is SlicerSV like? Hm... There could be several answers to that question, and it really should be better defined. There's two different people present. Me, and the person whose name I'm borrowing.

OK! STORY TIME! SlicerSV originated as a character in many of my early writing, and I STILL write about him... a lot. SlicerSV is first name and initials of Slicer Steele Vinesley, one of two fictional brothers who fight evil and demons and whatever else. You might say they're something like modern paladins, since they have modern and futuristic conveniences, but do the same sort of thing that paladins of legend supposedly did.

So then, the sort of things that SlicerSV the storytime character likes are games, games, and yet more games. He toys with his opponents, he randomly competes against other people, and he just simply likes to have fun.

SlicerSV the dude responsible for the existence of that character is a little more mild. I enjoy having fun, yes, I play a lot of games, yes, but it's not my defining trait. Among my hobbies/interests are programming/computer HACKING in general. By hacking I'm not talking about the mass-media misunderstanding of the word, I'm talking about getting into my own machine and finding out how things work and making them work better. Granted, I have done some mild cracking, but hasn't everybody made some kind of mistake?

Anyways, back to the hobbies and interests. I also enjoy stories. Both reading well written ones, and writing stories of my own. I also write narrative poetry.

Finally, but certainly not least, I enjoy slacking off with computer games. I'm helping out with an indies project Gekkeiju Online and I'm playing another game which is developed on an emulated version of the EverQuest servers but with fully customized content. However, since I'm unsure of the reaction a link to such a thing might be by the staff here I will not take any chances and will allow people to try to look on that themselves if they have any interest, and not actually link it here.

I presently have no real occupation. I'm just trying to save up money from random odd jobs in my town to make it out to a decent school and not be forced to attend a community one.
