I've been to lots of cons too, and trust me, it's not their fault. A lot of people have been up for days on end with no sleep, organizing events, going to every single panel and signing they can go to, all the while running around trying to fit in food and rest whenever they can. It also doesn't help that a lot of the big cons are held during the summer time, and in large enclosed spaces with large amounts of people running around, the bacteria that feeds off sweat is very easily transmitted. My friends used to have really bad BO during the day, even while showering 2-3 times a day, but when you're that active it's just unavoidable.

I guess when you put it in perspective it really isn't anyone's fault. But it's still enough to dissuade me from wanting to go >_<

Just wear a cologne so strong you can't smell anything else. :p

I'd have to say the highlight for me was going to dinner with my dad on Saturday night at a nice steak house, and having Leenock, Puma and their translators(or friends or coaches or something) sitting at the table besides us. :-D. I felt like a little girl in a candy store and could barely stop smiling the entire time. Haha.

I don't understand why people don't have at least a baseline level of appropriate hygiene... I shower 2-3 times a day for christsake.

P.S. Did anyone notice that the same voice actor that did Fenris from Dragon Age also does some people in Skyrim. I recognized it immediately and I am so proud of myself.

So...as I mentioned earlier I'm on match.com and I have discovered the fastest way to turn me off. Say one of two things: "I'm not familiar with Skyrim." Or "Which one is Starcraft again?" I state very clearly in my profile that I am a gamer. I think it's reasonable to expect people who are interested in me to at least be able to name the best video games of the year.

Also, here's a video of me back when I failed MISERABLY one day. No, I wasn't hurt at all, though it doesn't exactly look like it.

Yes, which I'd also call rather excessive in the other direction...

Although I think we'd all agree not knowing starcraft is a BLASPHEMOUS crime, many who see gamer may think "Oh, hey, he plays MW3 or battlefield 3 like me!" And... no. Ugh, evil games. x.x

Still haven't played skyrim so... Anyone here ever play DDR? I used to be big into it, not really anymore. Here, have a video of me when I was... 16? 17? Dunno. just younger. X3 (22 now, as of the 22nd. Ironic, ain't it? )

maybe, but at least people don't stand within 3 feet of me, wrinkle their nose and say to themselves "this guy showers too much"

You smell like a soap, ew!

My hands are cold. How do I warm them up? x.x

My first reaction involved your hands being in my pants....

but in all seriousness, put them down your pants, it is one of the warmer parts of a clothed human.

Good one! I knew I recognised some of the voices but couldn't place it!

P.S. See you sometime in SC2 chat once I've finished with skyrim (probably another 200 hours and I'll play some sc2 again :D)

Thanks! I was also convinced Astrid (Dark Brotherhood) was Gladdos from Portal, but it turns out its not. This is kind of scary, but I have 160 hours logged on Skyrim and I'm literally nowhere in the story line. I do have 4 45+ level characters though!

Also, the worst thing... ever happened to me this morning. I was using a barrel in Whiterun to hold all my extra stuff until I bought a house - I wanted the house in Solitude because it is the nicest but it is fairly pricey, so it took me a while. I finally buy the house and go back to fetch my stuff... and half of it is gone. Stuff gone includes:

+ Show Spoiler +
I read the tip on the net that you could store stuff in barrels and to start, I was extremely cautious! I would only put random stuff in them, but over the course of 3 toons to level 45+ nothing ever disappeared so I just used them to hold stuff. So you can imagine my horror when this happened. I tried loading but it was too far back. I wanted to alt-F4 and never play again.

Hi. My name is Mora. I am the local queer Starcraft player, and i write this post with the intentions of allowing other gay Starcraft players to find each other.

Possibly You: What does sexuality have to do with Video Games? I don't care if someone is gay or not, it just shouldn't be on an SC2 forum.

Well, no.

It's so difficult to start somewhere in this explanation. blarhg

When you're gay you don't know if you belong anywhere. You're taught, culturally, that it's disgusting and wrong. It's cool to be cool with people who are gay, but it's disgusting to want to have a dick in your mouth.

You ask questions like: If i talk, will everyone know that i'm gay? Will my friends still be my friends if they knew? Will my family still love me? Am i less of a man because i like other men? Am i male enough to hang out with heterosexual men?

This kind of minority is tricky. Before you have a chance to gain experience in gay culture, you don't have the tools to indentify who is gay and who isn't. The only people who are gay are the flamboyant guys on your TV screen and the faggot who gets beat up at lunch time because he likes to wear pink jeans (though in bigger cities this is less the case). We don't have any way to indentify each other. We can't see the only other asian/white kid/wheelchair/fatty in our school and go "hey, we can join forces against haters and be without hate".

And the hate is a different kind too. Being gay is about what you're aroused by. It's a deviation in carnal human behaviour. When someone hates you for that deviation, you feel that you can't argue with them. That It's not wrong to hate something disgusting. You understand that disgust because you’ve experienced it in the other direction – that the thought of sticking my tongue inside a dank vagina made me want to puke. That when i would watch straight porn, and see the tits bouncing around, i would lose my erection.

You sympathize with the disgust.

That's fucked.

So then many of us tend towards a hobby or a lifestyle that will be inclined to bring us in contact with other gays. We shy away from sports, we befriend more women than men, we learn to like fashion; we become masters at gossip.

But i like sports. I didn't get the fashion gene. I like to have conversations about things that are interesting, not trivialities regarding who said hi to whom.

I like strategy games.

So where do i find another guy that has the same interests?

Imagine if the only place you could meet girls was an internet forum called "Heterosexuality". You've never seen them in class. You've not seen them on the street. You've never had a conversation with one, you've never even made contact. Man, that would suck.

It does suck.

So i've created this thread for a few reasons.
1) For gays to find other gays that actually have something in common, other than their seuxality.
2) For gays to ask questions. I have a lot of experience with sexuality and gender psychology.
3) For everyone else to ask questions. Want to know if gaydar really exists? Want to know how gays figure out who gets to be on top or the bottom? Why do gays talk with a lisp anyway? Does Mora really have a crush on Incontrol?

Go!
