I guess its only fair that i start posting in this forum with my introduction.
Hello, i am a 21 year old economics student living in Lithuania. I am also a big computer fanatic, atrough starting from sega, quickly follwing to PC and not looking back. I was isntantly attracted by games of all ranges, from settlers to heroes of might and magic, from warcraft to neverwinter nights and this has put deep seeds into me. when i finally got connected to internet i got sucked into a mmorpg called Tibia that i played for over 12 years now. Been through cold and warm there, anywhere from GameMaster to a msot hated person in the community. Currently i quit that mmorpg and play another mmorpg called Eve. however unlike Tibia, eve does not take all my computer time. So the story comes into the present where i ended up being exremely social, obsessive person trying to do more things than he oculd in 5 lifetimes.
Each day i visit at least 5 forums and am actively participating in them. I have a quite large music collection that i am proud of. I am mainly into rock and metal, but i can tolerate most kindso f music. My last.fm profile may show you more about it. I read books both in original paper and text formats, and i especially like audiobooks because they allow me to read a book and play civilization at the same time! and considering my lists of "music to listen to" "books to read" "movies to watch" and "games to play" multitasking is a must. I am also a movieholic, with over 1500 movie seen and currently 954 of them rated on IMDB and going fast on the movie front. You can take a look at my IMDB voting history if you want. And finally we come to games, something which i live but dont have much time after everything. i paly everything from rpg to shooter, from turn based strategy to racing. there is only one genre that i dont like and that is sports games. i dont like sports in real life so i guess thats that. my X-fire profile may reaveal more, though i must note that xfire lacks support from many older games and a lot of games like Tibia or SAMP only recieved support after i gamed thousands of hours of it and thus not counted it. Also i had problems with manual setups of instalations so some games simply refuse to show up. I am very thorough when it comes to games which means i usually dont give up and collect all collectibles even if i find it borring more or less. thus you may see some intresting times on my profile like it took me 187 hours tofinnish Grid
once because whenever i started a championship i played it till i got to the top of hall of fame, and sometimes it meant 18 times in a row. Yes, i am that obsessive.
Well what is more there to say. you already have my last.fm, imdb and xfire profiles. i have an Msn (now called windows live messenger) profile since the times it was actually any good. You can add Strazdamonas@hotmail.com if you want. You can also add Strazdas0 on skype. I dont use steam, because i saw where steam started, didnt like it at all, thne found xfire which is as good substitute as any. i boycott steam-only games. i hate the new ubisoft restriction of playing games only connected to internet. I play my games on a laptop (2 years old) instead of my desktop (10 years old) because it is more powerful and portable. if i am, say, in a bus driving, i dont have internet, thus i cant play singleplayer of ubisoft games. This is madness.
I am agaisnt drugs, i am agasint alcohol, i am against smoking.
I see two greatest pleasures in life: eating and acess to computer, thus it has lead me to be overweight, about which i have no complexes whatsoever. Currently umeployed, studies takes 60-80% of my awake time. Which birings me to another topic. I sleep 8 hours a day, minimum amount required for me to feel good. I consider sleep a waste of time, we sleep away third of our lives. And even though even 48 hours a day wouldnt be enough for me, 8 hours lost each day is a real annoyance.
Currently on my lists of "things to do when time aviable":
Music: listen though approximately 360 hours of music.
Books/Audiobooks: Read approximately 400 books and listen to 60 audiobooks.
Movies: around 500 movies on the list to watch. the list is growing, usually faster than i watch them.
Games: Currently 155 games on the list.
I would also like to mention that i have never seen such a thing in a forum before:
