About Me I am a nerd. I think that about sums it up. Need to contact me for any reason? You can send me a PM on Barhah.com or Brainstock or just leave a comment on my talk page.

And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." --Friedrich Nietzsche Bringing barhah to a suburb near you! I originally joined UD sometime in '07 to run with a small group of friends, and Aphelion was my main alt. But the group slowly atrophied as people got bored or quit for other reasons, and eventually I ended up an unaffiliated survivor randomly wandering around Malton trying to help out in major sieges and whatnot. But I learned the hard way that trying to hold things (particularly malls) is generally a futile endeavor, and once I hit 41, playing felt doubly pointless. I lost interest and eventually quit. Sometime in March '09, something--I don't remember what now--reminded me of UD, and I unidled Aphelion in a surge of nostalgia. I decided that if I was gonna play this game, I wanted to join a group to have some sense of direction, and I really wasn't interested in being a survivor. I wanted to see the game from the other side, but moreover, I was fed up with survivors being apathetic and poorly coordinated. But survivor gameplay is more complex than that of their zombie brethren, and variety is the spice of life, so I started investigating PKer and death cultist groups. I was particularly interested in the latter because I wanted to go pro-zombie, and the Gore Corps wiki page caught my eye. I couldn't have picked a better group. Rolling with the RRF is a blast! And for the record, yes, I'm aware that there's no such thing as a lunar aphelion! Prima Giedi "mostly harmless are pkers and are zergs they use their alts to help them with their kills, zombie in pajamas and Prima Giedi are the same person" --kar98 There's a bit of a story behind this one. I created Prima back in the day because I felt Aphelion's Military class wasn't nearly nerdy enough, and I ended up as a dedicated reviver for Stanbury Village's Yeoman Park. Aside from Aphelion, I decided to make new alts when I rejoined UD so they had something to do while I figured out if I wanted to join additional groups, so I left Prima idled out until some jerk I've known for way too long ran across Aphelion and recognized the handle. I'm from the same site as LUE and happened to know him, but neither of us had any idea the other played. Long story short, I got dragged into the Mostly Harmless IRC channel, and we had a conversation along these lines: ZiP: OMG I KNOW YOU Me: OMG I KNOW YOU TOO ZiP: HEY WANNA JOIN MY GROUP Me: NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT, I HAVE THIS ALT And good times have been had by all since! Beid "Batshit Insane: Eating brainz and taking names!" --Winton Originated with the Mall Tour '09, then joined Batshit Insane after the tour ended. Wants your bra!nz! Although I consider myself a pro-zombie player, Beid is my only actual zombie character. Go figure. I'm into things like emoting and propaganda, and as much as I enjoy shouting things like "NAM ZAH HARMANZ BRA!NZ! BARHAH!" and "HARMANBARGARZ!" and "AHM GANNAH GRAB ZAM AZZ!", I tend to run out of novel things to say after a while. Man, if rattle had even one or two more letters... Gienah "XD" --kylestyle Holy shit, Aphelion's playing a pro-survivor character? Can it be done, or will she start shooting people?! (I can't help it! I see the red HP and my finger just....slips....) I created Gienah as a random scientist before I remembered Prima existed, and for a while I wandered around trying to be pro-survivor but generally failing at it. Like, I was operating an RP for a while, but aside from sticking the odd hapless newbie, all I really did was make snarky comments about harmanz with trenchy profiles at the RP and revive these PKers who kept hitting my NT. And I mean, they weren't even particularly good or amusing PKers--they didn't emote, for one--but you gotta entertain yourself somehow, I guess. I eventually joined 404: Barhah not found because a bunch of my friends are in it I wanted to better understand how an effective breather group operates, both because this makes nahmming them easier and to do something different, and instantly had a lot more fun playing as a harman. 404 is pretty special; since it consists mostly of zombie players with harman alts, it brings the IRC whoring high degree of coordination enjoyed by undead strike teams to the survivor side, and it does things that are tactically sound (e.g. smart combat revives to clear buildings) even if they're unpopular. If you're looking for a harman group that's both a ton of fun and knows what the fuck it's doing, I highly recommend giving it a look.
