Goodbye, old quote.

You've been with me and my TL.net account for 5 years. It's time to go our separate ways.

"Sleep is for the weak, and I am weak"
This was inspired by a T-shirt sold by a local Princeton coffee shop, which read "Sleep is for the weak" - a macho-nerd T-shirt of sorts. I was somewhat rebellious towards the on-campus norms at the time (including being sober for the entire 4 years there), and decided to poke fun of it on my Facebook profile (I love sleeping). This quote was on my Facebook profile from 2004, and appeared on my TL.net profile when I joined this site in 2006.

Travian Coordinates
Travian was perhaps the first major role I played with the TL community, as fellow TL'ers and I grinded out a year long battle to the top of the server. (Yes, we won.) Neo and I, along with several others, stuck it out to the end even though we know we really had nothing to gain from the victory. It was for pride. TL pride. My relationship with Neo is one of the closest I have with any TL member, despite not talking with him frequently at all. My closest friendships have been made from persevering through mutual suffering (deathly physical problem sets...), and Travian was certainly no exception. I still have lasting respect for Anihc, Locked, oneofthem, legionairre, b_unnies, among others.

New Quote - Personal Site
I've replaced the quote with a link to my personal page. I've been thinking about online and RL identity a lot lately, and I've decided to fuse them all together (even though I have a reputation for being a bitter elitist online and a happy fellow IRL - hi Chill & Kennigit!).

It's an "up the ante" to myself.
I'll up the ante one more by showing you my other online identities (which I'm fusing together).

http://hkmurakami.com/
http://twitter.com/#!/hkmurakami
http://www.facebook.com/hmurakami
http://www.quora.com/H-K-Murakami


My relationship with the web and with TL.net has changed over the last 5 years. I hope that I can continue contributing to it in my own way.

Bookmarked.

I've heard a bit of Travian, nothing too much though to be honest.

Interested about your new site :3

As for the site, it's currently just a blog + crossposts of my Quora posts. (not sure what it'll end up being in the long run)

My goal is to only produce meaningful material that is either (a) informative, or (b) thought provoking.

"I made one of the deepest relationships I've ever had with this game"

"Don't play it"

Hm...

Is the twitter account related to the blog or just your personal twitter?

edit: should figure out before asking, nevermind I figured it out~

I'm guessing he means it's really addictive and is a big timewaster.

What happened to all of your posts, Torte! I swear your post count is decreasing...

The game sucks.
The relationships were gold, and were a function of the quality of TL users.

The twitter account is my personal RL twitter and my online persona twitter. It's all going to be that one account.

Exactly. Bad game, no skill involved, but addicting. I guess one can learn something about game design from it though...

My posts are a gag by Sonuvbob ^^

edit: oh wtf Torte what is going on with your posts lol. Did you play a grudgematch and lose all of them like Fakesteve?

My image of you was still frozen in time as this.

I know i've said this before, but somehow everything you write comes with this odd "don't give a shit" attitude due to your icon.

haha maybe it's time to ask staff to change it
(it started as an inside joke since there was a period of a few weeks when I was writing particularly elitist - jokingly- comments to some posters I knew pretty well @ TL)
