In terms of the game, I wanted to experience everything it had to offer, so as you can see by the character list, I have characters in some of the premiere groups of Malton. They all lead separate existences, and a few of them actively fight against the efforts of the others, though they've never met or even gotten close to each other (nor will they ''ever'' do so). Oh, and since they're all separate characters, please treat them as such. Just because my PKer may have ruined your day today doesn't mean that my survivor won't be coming in afterwards to help you patch things together. | In terms of the game, I wanted to experience everything it had to offer, so as you can see by the character list, I have characters in some of the premiere groups of Malton.

Intro
I'm an Urban Dead player who first joined the game on August 15th, 2009. Since then, I've made a point of trying to enjoy as many aspects of the game and its community as possible. Towards that end, I've written userscripts, have led or helped to lead some of the top groups during my time, and have generally engaged in the wiki community quite a bit. This is the first wiki that I've really gotten involved with, so if you see me making stupid mistakes, clue me in, since I'm still learning. Despite that, on March 26, 2010, the community saw fit to make me a sysop, but when my term was up, I asked for a demotion rather than an additional term as sysop, and was restored to the life of a regular user on November 25, 2010. Though inactive for most of 2011, I became active again in 2012.
In terms of the game, I wanted to experience everything it had to offer, so as you can see by the character list, I have characters in some of the premiere groups of Malton. They all lead separate existences, and a few of them actively fight against the efforts of the others, though they've never met or even gotten close to each other (nor will they ever do so). Oh, and since they're all separate characters, please treat them as such. Just because my PKer may have ruined your day today doesn't mean that my survivor won't be coming in afterwards to help you patch things together.
If you need to get in touch with me for some reason, use the talk page. If you want real-time chat about wiki stuff, hit me up on irc.nexuswar.com in #udwiki. If you decide to stalk me and need to say my name over the phone or in-person, I've included a handy pronunciation guide for my screen name up in the header of this page. Just in case you aren't conversant with those characters, it's pronounced the same as "icon."
Background
I'm a software developer in College Station, Texas, USA. I've interned with various subcontractors for NASA (e.g. Lockheed Martin), and did a stint for four years as a Teaching Assistant at Texas A&M while in grad school, where I had the privilege of assisting the professors in teaching over 2300 students in numerous programming languages and over a variety of subjects.
To cut off the obvious questions, no, I will not help you troubleshoot your computer, nor will I design your wiki page for you. I use and love my Macs because they let me get work done without having to worry about it not working or having to be configured for hours on end to work exactly how I want. As for design, while I like to think my userspace looks cool, it takes me way too long to make things not suck, so I try to avoid it. That said, if you run into a technical issue and put in some serious effort trying to figure it out, I'm usually up for helping people get over those sorts of hurdles.
I've lived on all three of the major coasts in America, in each case in the southern half of the country, so my exposure to cold temperatures is pretty limited. In fact, the place I'm living at now is the furthest inland (around 140 miles/225 km), the highest elevated (about 360 feet/110 m), the most cold (it'll get below freezing a few times each winter), and the most hot (we routinely have highs over well 105°F/40°C each summer) I've ever lived, strange as that may sound to most people out there.
Otherwise, I guess I could point out the fact that I am a Christian that holds pretty traditional/conservative values in terms of most of the controversial issues. For some reason, this tends to surprise people. Go figure.

Minutiae
Backloggery.com: As most know, I enjoy video games from a large selection of genres (pretty much everything but sports games), but I am most enamored with classic (or soon-to-be classic) games that demonstrate great mechanics. I particularly enjoy underrated games, but I don't let the popularity of something dissuade me from playing it. If you're curious about the games I have or what I'm playing, check me out at the link. In fact, do yourself a favor and sign up there. The site and community are awesome. Feel free to post on my wall and friend me.
MyAnimeList.net: In terms of anime, my tastes are a bit simpler: I usually avoid series that span hundreds of episodes, I don't watch hentai, and the stuff I watch is usually not obscure. Check the link if you want more information about what I've seen or what I'm watching now (assuming I'm watching something, since I've been slowing down recently).
Otherwise, I do a bit of coding for fun in my spare time, and have dabbled in several dozen different programming, scripting, markup, and query languages at this point. Check my userscripts for some examples of coding I've done for fun within the scope of UD.
You might see me around the Internet since I do tend to get around. These days, I go by the Aichon handle almost exclusively (or Aichonic when it's unavailable), but in the past I've used Anubis IV and Orison as handles at various sites and in various services.
