What drew you to MotK, and what do you think is your favorite part of the community here in general?
(PS How do you feel about FORUM LAG AAAAAAAH)
I came to MotK on the suggestion of my friend Letty Whiterock right after the forums moved 2 years ago. I've floated from forum to forum since I've been on the internet (Pointless Waste of Time -> DDR Freak -> Pumpcore -> MotK) and after the death of Pumpcore I'd been looking for somewhere new to go. The conversation pretty much went:
"Hey, you should join MotK!"
"Nah, I don't even play Touhou."
"Nah, it'll be great! You can be Vic Viper and it'll be hilarious!"
I prefer the forum here since it's not solely about Touhou and it lacks a lot of the elitism I attribute to 4chan.
And yeah, the lag is annoying :<
Are you, in fact, the last hope for mankind?
The one and only! You're still alive, right? You're welcome.
Got any goals for your life in the long run?
What's a few of your favorite games/movies/books?
Finish school and then get a job. I'm really sick of school right now, but I'm still weighing options for permanence. I'm in Japan right now finishing my degree and I'm contemplating coming back to teach English, but not for long. I'd prefer to do embassy or consulate work. Granted, my perfect job would be getting paid to read shit on the internet.
I'm not really a big book reader, my mother and brother got that set of genes; my preference by far is film. I like a lot of action movies and dramas, comedies too but my standards are obnoxiously high. Personally I've been focusing a lot on Kubrick lately, but I like older Kurosawa as well.
How many cores on average do you shoot per day?
How much do you get paid for being the last hope for mankind?
Laser or Double?
It's been a while, I'm down to about three.
Last I checked, my construction alone bankrupted the entire planet, so I'm going to go with my pay being "all of it"
Laser, my dodging sucks.
What brought you into touhou?
What's your daily life like (i.e. eat computer shit computer sleep)?
What do you prefer, Water or Soda?
What is your favorite genre of games?
How awesome am I, on a scale from Kip to Kip?
Um, nothing did. I still rarely even touch the games, I've just never been a huge fan of those kinds of games.
Wake up and internet for as long as I can get away with, eventually getting out and being somewhat productive, followed by eating too much junk food and more internet/movies/anime/games, then sleep at later than I anticipated.
Water by far. I didn't drink soda until I was 16 and now I only drink it when going on long drives or at fast food places. I don't drink coffee or tea either, so it's pretty much water and milk and orange juice.
Arcade-style driving games (Gran Turismo can suck it) and single-player FPS/3PS. I also enjoy the occasional Visual Novel, and Persona 3.
Imma go with Kip
Are you a man or machine, or some strange hybrid?
When did you join the MotK staff, as it seems to me like you've been here forever, and what was the general state of the forums at the time?
Whatever you want me to be baby :*
I became a shrine janitor in October of 2009, and a moderator...at some point in the first half of 2010. I've been on the boards ever since the reset though. Far as the condition of the forums, it was and still is more fractured than other forums I used to frequent. I'd say the status quo has been more or less the same, which could also be viewed as stagnant if you prefer. I pretty much stay in Beyond the Border, which seems to lack a lot of the issues I see in Fandom (not necessarily Touhou exclusive).
