Well, I know I've been around for a few days, and I know I also said I probably wouldn't stick around too long but I really like it here, there people here are great and I just like the atmosphere, so if you don't mind I'll be staying a while. =P

Well, a little about me. I guess you can already gather that I really like old games, especially RPGs like the Realms of Arkania series and Betrayal at Krondor. I don't really like console games too much, but I guess they're fun. If you couldn't tell, I'm American (I guess that makes me a minority on this site =P). Politically, I suppose I'm a moderate. I tend to see the light of both sides of the political spectrum, although I tremendously disagree with our nation's recent actions.

I also really like power metal, I guess you can say I'm a metal head. I like European power metal the best, American, for the most part just doesn't have the harmony that European, particularly Scandinavian and German, music does. I try to compose my own music but it just doesn't turn out too well. I try to make my own games but they generally turn out really bad, but hey, it can be fun.

Anyway, glad to be a part of the community, I'd be more than happy to do any reviews or help in any way possible. If you want to hear my hideous music, check out http://chef.blade2k.net. Thanks, and see you all later!

Well, the music isn't that bad at all, but I guess you need better equipment / instruments and a little more practice with the music :D
Some of the songs (I heard only the .mp3's) main sounding belongs in other genres they're in, like Keepin' it Toaster could be good Techno or progressive, fast 80's Pop (or like that, not that I have big knowledge of the genres :wink: ), or God Safe Rufus, they both need heavy drum-basses, and many of them :wink:
New.mp3 sounds even very good, but it needs more background accompanying music, so it should sound more heavy, it's little too light yet. I hope I gave you the idea :D

Oh, that stuff is all really old and really bad. When I say just bad, I mean my newer stuff and my MIDIs. Yeah, the ones you mentioned were my very first attempts at anything with the program Fruity Loops, so they're really bad. I'd like to consider myself a lot better at it now but even still I'm kind of bad.

Anyway, glad to be a part of the community =)

Chef Boyaedee, do you by any chance have anything to do with the online game "The Kingdom Of Loathing"? It's just I found your name in a haiku in the game:

You find the Kitchen
Chef Boyardee's in da house
Hey, meat bonanza!

Yeah, I play Kingdom of Loathing but my character's name is Kathy Lee Gifford because Chef Boyardee was taken. It was just a coincidence.
