Hi. I'm new to the forums. The server and the community around it both make it well worth the wait to get in during peak hours (read: all frickin day).

Keep up the good work!

Hmm, let's see...

ClayPigeon has been my gaming handle since CS beta5. It was originally because of my ability to be a moving target, but I usually go by just Clay nowadays. The -]AAC[- part of it isn't a clan, it's a CS server me and my friends have run for almost 6 years now. Atlanta Animal Control.

I'll be 32 this month.

Lived in Florida for 20+ years, just moved to Birmingham, AL.

BattleField 2 is how I discovered WIH.

Battlefield 2, CS 1.6, NWN - I'm a sucker for good FPSs and RPGs.

Hmm... I'm a CCNP (Cisco Certified Network Professional), and I'm a breakbeat DJ. I'll see if I can move some of my sets to a public folder if anyone's interested in hearing them.

What's a breakbeat DJ? what kind of music is that? :dunno: Explain it to me. :)

It's a genre of electronica, whereas most dance music is straightbeat (read: boom-boom-boom-boom) this breaks up the beat, makes it more funky. (read: boomboom-tssss-boomboomboom-tsss or boom-tss-tss-boom-boom)). If you've ever heard any DJ Icey, his music is almost entirely breakbeat.

Past that explanation, I'll just have to get some sets online.

(Edit: If you have RealPlayer, you can listen to some clips of one of the records I recently bought, it's a good example of breakbeat: http://www.satelliterecords.com/ram/132422.RAM )

Just thought I'd tack on a little bit of interesting information, if any of you have ever played EverQuest, I was one of the founding members of Afterlife on Mithaniel Marr. When I retired my character after sixish years, his full name was Elder Jorr the Mystic.

Just noticed the MMORPG section and thought I would add that bit.

Hey Clay,

That is cool about the DJ stuff. I will have to check it out sometime. See you later.
