Uchiha Ryutake

Who are you?

This question is so unspecific. Is it asking for my name, details about me that make me up as a person, what? I am me!

What's your location?

Texas, between Ft. Worth and Waco depending on whether I'm at home or school. Home=Ft. Worth, school=Waco at Baylor University

How long have you played Guild Wars?

A little over a year now

What are your favorite characters?

Uchiha Ryutake(Elementalist) and Venus Noob Trap(Ranger, generally Mo secondary)

What is your gaming background?

I've been playing games as long as I remember. I started out on the Intellivision(does anybody even know what that was??) and possibly Atari, though I don't remember it. We also had an NES, which my sister hogged too much and got taken away. We never saw it again... But, a couple years ago I went out and got a used one of my own :P I also have been playing computer games since Windows 3.1 was new. DOS games FTW! I remember having a Spiderman game and Tetris, and then a bunch of Carmen SanDiego games. Those were always fun. However, after DOS my computer gaming experience is very limited. I played MYST way back in the day, and a couple other similar games. Those were only fun the first times around really... I mostly stuck to minesweeper, solitaire, and freecell for a long time, and I still play those way too much now. Anyway, after the NES, I continued my console obsession for quite some time. We eventually got a SNES, and I loved that until the N64 came out, and I had to have that as well. Along with the GCN, and in 2 months, the Wii. I also have an Xbox, but for now that is the full extent of my infidelity to Nintendo. Unless you count occaisionally playing DDR on the PS2, but I don't own a PS2. I just play that and the Halo games on my Xbox. Nintendo wise, I think the Zelda series is my favorite so far, as I own every game which has been released. I have Twilight Princess(Wii version) reserved at GameStop, and when it becomes available, I will reserve the upcoming DS game. I have many other Nintendo games, but I can't really think of them, other than the mass of Pokemon games I have and used to play more than I care to admit. Other than that, GW is about all I can really say...

What is your online experience?

I first gained access to the internet at home when I was 12. Since then, I have been on all the time. I'm a computer nerd, so it makes sense. The only exception was back when we had dial-up for a few years, either when it didn't work or when somebody needed to use the phone. We later ditched that for Charter Pipeline High Speed Cable internet, which was only about 364kb/s or something downstream, meaning about 45kb/s max download. We had that until this weekend when my dad finally went to the Charter place and upgraded to the 5Mbps service. We'll have that for 6 months and then we have to go down to the 3Mbps due to the expiration of the special deal we got. I have been a regular on a couple of forums now, mostly www.XeroCreative.com which is where BGD came from, and more recently the Red vs Blue forums at www.roosterteeth.com. I would not recommend XeroCreative(XC) as it is full of noobs and I try to avoid getting out of the BGD thread as much as possible nowadays. On the RvB site, however, I post in a few places, but consider my local home on there to be the Stargate thread. I like it there. And we talk about more than just Stargate ;)

How long have you been in TeG?

Since Decembet 7, 2005.

What do you like best about TeG?

I like the people. TeG is more or less what is keeping me on GW right now. There are a few in particular, but I do enjoy getting to know everybody. Somebody the other day actually called me charismatic, which kind of surprised me in a good way. I had never thought of that before. But yeah, having people around who like to help, or people who need help to give me something to do is awesome :D

What is your favorite Guild Wars moment?

Pretty much every time we have nekkid dances in the GH

What's on your mouse pad?

Well, mine is just blue. When I use it. But with my laptop, I usually don't even use a mouse pad. It tends to screw up the mouse to have patterns on there, considering all my mice are fiber ops.

Why am I here?

Why are you here? I have no clue. But if you're asking me, which I'm guessing you are, then I'm here because a couple friends of mine(Torak, PHR, and Freeza) dragged me onto GW last summer and then I hopped around guilds for a while with them. All I remember is being in KoTL and then taking a break for a few months, then coming back to no guild and running over here to join Torak, PHR, and Freeza. At first it was weird, because I didn't know anybody, but as I went, I found that I liked the people and so I decided to stay.

If you could talk with anyone living or dead, who would it be?

As random as this question seems, I really don't have an answer. I know plenty of people who are dead, but I don't really know what I would say to them. One in particular... But that's another story I don't tell often. If you ask sometime, I might be willing to share, but no guarantees. As for living people, anybody I want to talk to I generally do. And the people who I think I want to talk to, when I get the chance, I wonder why I wanted to talk to them because it ends up being awkward and not like I originally wanted it to be. So I guess I have to say nobody. Except maybe God... That would be intereting....
