I'm just an Urban Dead player who's made a point of enjoying as many aspects of the game as possible. Towards that end, I've created {{/snazzylink|User:Aichon/Userscripts|userscripts}}, led or helped to lead some of the top groups, written a handful of {{/snazzylink|User:Aichon/Other/So_you_want_to_be_a_sysop%3F|guides}}, and gotten around the wiki {{/snazzylink|Special:Contributions/Aichon|quite a bit}}. I'm sometimes a {{/snazzylink|UDWiki:Administration/Guidelines#What_are_System_Operators_on_this_Wiki.3F|sysop}} here too.

I have characters in some of the premier groups of Malton, each of which leads an entirely separate existence from the others. If my zombie eats your brains, it's nothing personal (most of the time), it's just me playing the character to its fullest. Likewise, if my survivor swings through to help you patch the place up later, I'm not a zombie spy. I'm honestly there to help you repair the damage to the best of my capability.

Outside of the game, I'm a software developer living in Bryan, Texas, USA. I graduated from Texas A&M University, worked in the space industry, did a stint in grad school, and assisted in teaching thousands of students subjects ranging from FORTRAN to ethics, though not all necessarily in that order. These days, I mostly craft bespoke desktop apps for engineering firms while having some fun with web stuff on the side.
Outside of the game, I'm a married software developer living in Bryan, Texas, USA. I graduated from Texas A&M University, worked in the space industry, did a stint in grad school, and assisted in teaching thousands of students subjects ranging from FORTRAN to ethics, though not all necessarily in that order. These days, my work has me creating custom-built apps for engineering firms.


I've lived on the Pacific, Atlantic, and Gulf coasts of America, so I'm used to lots of sun and beaches. Yet despite my growing up in the South, I never grew up surrounded by Southern culture, so it's something I'm still getting used to. The place I'm living now is the furthest inland (around 140 miles/225 km), the highest elevated (about 360 feet/110 m), the coldest (we get snow every few years), and the hottest (we usually have weeks of highs over 105°F/40°C each summer) place I've ever lived.

Despite living in Southern states, I never grew up surrounded by Southern culture, so it's something I've had to get used to.

I'm also a Christian that holds pretty traditional or conservative values. I almost never bring it up on my own around here, just because religion isn't a topic that most people want to discuss while playing a zombie game, but if it's something that you have questions about, feel free to ask. I'll do my best to answer.
I'm a Christian that holds pretty traditional and conservative values, but unless you ask me about it, this is probably about the only time you'll see me bring it up, just because religion isn't a topic that most people want to discuss while playing a zombie game. That said, if it's something that you have questions about, feel free to ask. I'll do my best to answer.


Besides my {{/snazzylink|User Talk:Aichon|talk page}}, you can oftentimes reach me after normal American working hours on irc.nexuswar.com in channel {{/snazzylinke|irc://irc.nexuswar.com/udwiki|#udwiki}} (if you're not used to using IRC, try {{/snazzylinke|1=http://www.mibbit.com/chat/?server=irc.nexuswar.com&channel=%23udwiki|2=this link}} instead). If I'm in there, you can say my screen name to "ping" me, which will get my attention if I'm at home and near my computer. If I don't respond, I'm probably away from my computer, but if you leave the chat open for a few hours I'll almost always get back to you eventually. If you can't stick around, leave me with some method for replying to you (e.g. e-mail, wiki talk page, etc.), that way I can follow up with you. You can also click the link on the side to {{/snazzylink|Special:EmailUser/Aichon|e-mail me via the wiki}}.

If you want even more information about me, I've also detailed what {{/snazzylink|User:Aichon/Other#Technology|my desktop setup}} is, as well as what {{/snazzylink|User:Aichon/Other#Hobbies|some of my hobbies}} are.

And if I happen to be in-character or representing a group I'm in, I may use different signatures around the wiki:
{|style="background-color:rgb(242,242,242)"
|-
|style="text-align:center"|{{User:Aichon/Signature}}
|style="padding-left:10px"|I represent myself (or possibly the sysop team, if I'm acting in an official capacity).
|-
|style="text-align:center"|{{User:Aichon/Bsig}}
|style="padding-left:10px"|I represent the {{/snazzylink|Big Bash 4|Bash}}, who wants to party and eat your BRA!NZ!
|-
|style="text-align:center"|{{User:Aichon/Msig}}
|style="padding-left:10px"|I represent the {{/snazzylink|Militant Order of Barhah|MOB}}, bringing you the message of BARHAH!
