Title: Pseudonym
Post by: Pseudonym on March 12, 2007, 09:47:42 am
Real name: Matt.
Real age: 33.
Real Location: Melbourne, Australia.

If any of you have ever met my character Ark in game, he's not a huge stretch for me to RP ... except he has got a goodly quantity of true in the bank and has a 23 dexterity.

RL, I currently own a retail business here in Melbourne, Australia but in 5 years i'd like to be retired and living in Barbados with my new wife named Candy. Actually, thinking about it, i'd like to be doing that right now.

Hope to see you soon!

This is not me, it's one of my kids. She has, however, borrowed my pink fairy top for the photo.

*giggles* Sometimes art does reflect life ... but not THAT closely!

Thought of something else about me ... i'm a 17 year old part Inuit/part Romanian girl with ambiguous sexual tendencies who enjoys listening to Hawthorne Heights, wearing thick eyeliner and writing morose poetry.

Well ... not really but I thought that'd generate a lot more views than anything about the real me.

Here is a photo of me, I am the centaur on the left.

Well ... not really. I mean, I am goofy but even I have my limits. Just thought this was amusing. *goes back to work with a heavy sigh*

Polak76 has nighmares of Corath reaching through the darkness and taking his soul!...no...wait...thats Pseudo's daughter (i like that pic).

Truely though, with her big glaring eyes and zoomed up moving hands, she looks like he's about to cast something necromantic....probably poopy in her pants..or greater smelly cloud!

Hey! That was just like me 6 years ago... Didn't know we had so much in common. ;)

No.... Just kidding!  I'm as normal as they come.  *Gives her best convincing smile*

Okay, I thought I was done with the photos but now I have people refusing to believe that I am NOT the centaur on the left.

Here is a photo of me .... the shirt is not pink. It's lilac ... *nods* ... maybe mauve at it's most feminine but it's definitely not pink.

For starters, it's Lilac and a manbag shows a man who is confident and assured *nods, pleased with his assertion*
Title: Re: Ola from Pseudonym
Post by: Polak76 on March 25, 2007, 10:33:36 pm
Lilac is where it all begins.  Next its soft pink, Dark Pink than fluoro Pink.  

Now how am i supposed to take your Corathite seriously!  We've got this mean dwarf who loves dealing punishment run by a lilac shirted man....Please do me a favour and don't run a Black Sun avatar in any of my CDQ's...it will definately take the scare factor away!

Is anyone that plays Layo here very wealthy in RL?? If so, I have composed a list of things that you could buy for me if you happened upon a great sum of money.

(a) A full-time nanny to look after the kids. Preferably one with either David Beckham or Jude Law as their previous employer.

(b) A Jaguar XJ220 in cherry red and a fully decked out Hummer in black. The hummer to have those shiny rims that spin independently of the movement of the wheel. I'm not sure if it is a requirement or merely a recommendation to have my name changed to M.Diddy or Em-Z or Grandmaster M in order to take possession of the Hummer?

(c) A large calibre semi-automatic sniper rifle for that day when I ascend the stairs of the nearest shot tower. (Sometimes here at Melbourne that fateful day rushes towards me with ever increasing rapidity and certainty).

(d) The employ of a professional hitman to take out;
1. People that drive poorly.
2. People that repeatedly send unsolicited chain e-mails promising me good luck if I send it on to nine other people.
3. People that engage in violence against women and children.

(e) A plasma screen TV sooooo-oooo big it becomes only the 2nd man-made object on Earth's surface visible from outer space.

(f) A Louis Vuitton pooch carry case with a small trophy dog inside.

(g) A really, really, really, REALLY big drill. I don't know why and would probably have very little use for it beyond what my little cordless can deliver, however I still want one. (I don't want to know what Freud would have to say about this)

(h) A tub of Homer Hudson Chocolate Rock ice cream. A tube of sour cream & onion Pringles. A bag of honey baked ham Kettle chips. A McDonalds apple and custard pie. A big block of King Island Camembert cheese. A plate of fajitas, A packet of (chilled) teddy Bear biscuits. A bowl of macaroni cheese.

(i) Persuade Hugh Hefner to hand over his velvet smoking jackets and sell the fully stocked (with bunnies) Playboy Mansion to you, for me.

(j) A private island in the Bahamas all to myself. All to myself but for two supermodels to be hired who would do nothing but dress up like lions and sit outside the gates of my fortified mansion.

(k) A choose-your-own-adventure book published where I am the hero. Although the reader (by definition) will get to choose their path through the novel, each adventure should end with me getting the treasure and the girl.

(l) A pristine white cowboy suit. All inclusive. Chaps, vest, pointy cowboy boots with spurs, badge, string tie and a 10 gallon stetson hat. I also would like a palamino horse that I shall name Winifred.

(m) I'd like a room purpose built and outfitted for me exactly like the sunken sitting room of Connor MacLeod in the movie Highlander. Walls lined with ancient weaponry and artifacts. Circular leather couches. And while we're on the subject of Highlander, i'd also like voice coaching so I could do a really impressive Sean Connery accent. (Was there any more evidence you required that I am a big geek?)

(n) A NFL franchise. Don't know why, I don't even like gridiron. Just seems in  a lot of films the really powerful and ruthless oil magnates to whom everyone grovels all own NFL franchises.

(o) A one way ticket to one of the following destinations;
Tahiti, the Marquesas, Maui, Bahamas, Maldives, anything in Thailand beginning with Kho, actually any island destination where the median temperature is above 30˚ all year round, etc, etc.
    or;
A return ticket to one of the following destinations;
Tanzania, Turkey, Italy, Brazil, Cuba, Germany, Antarctica, North-East or South-West USA, Spain, China, France, Peru, Alaska, Kenya, Sweden & Norway, Ireland, Nepal, Amsterdam, Japan, Argentina, Russia, Czech Republic, Greece. Actually, pretty much anywhere that is NOT Melbourne (or Afghanistan).

(q) An orchard with some stone and citrus fruit. Ideally, a babbling creek would flow through the middle of my new orchard whereupon you and I might have some grand and fabulous adventures.

(r) Some custom-made leather underpants. I don't wish to explain the why of this want, however it is very important.

(s) A walled and guarded compound to keep out the undesirable element, ie. wife. HA! Just kidding. (Am I just kidding?) *raises pinkie to the corner of his mouth Dr Evil style*

Look Pseudo, you've been trying to keep that closet door locked for a long time now.  Maybe it's time to come clean.

Anyway I don't understand what the fuss is about.  Lilac isn't really much an improvement from pink in my opinion.

Cheers,

Actually, the fact that you're calling it "Lilac" instead of something like "light purple" is a little odd, don't you think? O.o

@Dorg. There is the point where a man be so manly, so comfortable with his own masculinity that he ceases to worry about colour terminology. One day you may join me here.

@Polak - I can take this shirt off and put on a blue one. You however will always be ugly.

@Darkstorme - I didn't want to do it but you have forced my hand. Can you categorically deny ever having misspelled the word rogue (http://forums.layonara.com/roleplaying/114712-ode-rogues-rogue-any-other-name.html) as rouge (http://forums.layonara.com/roleplaying/114712-ode-rogues-rogue-any-other-name.html)??

Rouge, rouge... no, I can't say that I've never made that typo.. but I can't help but think how appropriate it is that you'd call me on that particular shade of makeup.  It's always struck me as rather... pink, don't you think?

No offense, but it's highly unlikely that I will join you in the comfort of your masculinity.

Thanks for the offer though.  :p

In defence of the lilac shirt, I submit photographic evidence of quite masculine men wearing pink shirts. The Rock, Stallone, one of the All-Blacks and Mr T.

My girlfriend knows the centaur and the others in the picture. Not the one on the far right, though.

Apparently the centaur's name is Mickey. The short woman was Monster Town Maven, the woman in red was a spellcaster, and the man on the left has a small child.

This Mickey was thrown out of a Jehova's Witnesses meeting during a sermon that said, basically "All organizations are the arms of Satan!" and he asked "Isn't this an organization?"

My girlfriend LARPed with these people in Shattered Isles, a once-great LARP that has recently... Well, we haven't played recently. For good reason.

I don't know if it's just me, but I've been trying for the last 5 minutes to understand what you're talking about zuckerman.  I've read it about five time to no avail.  Please help me!

Oh and Psuedo, cute kids.  My son is only 1.2 years old at the moment, but maybe we can hook him up in a fair few years time?

Just a little note in response to the many kind people of the layo community who have inquired.

A few of us Layonarans - Australian chapter, do indeed live real close to the bad bushfires that I am told have even made the news in the States. Indeed, some pretty serious ones were even in the suburb of our own coder extraordinaire ScriptWrecked. However, hopefully the worst of them has passed and everyone from Melbourne who plays here is safe and sound.

Cheers, Pseudo.
