"Sonty Mick..." I might keep that for a while.

The weird orange shape's coming back, though. Less pixelated this time. Oh, there was some graffitti in the school bathroom today that looked a lot like my avatar thing, so at first I actually thought it had anything to do with me. On closer inspection, it may merely have been a stylized "K."

And I was going to mention it earlier but I wanted to make sure I TOOK A PICTURE OF THE GRAFFITI.

Phone pictures suck and the lighting was bad but hopefully you understand why I was confused at first.

I'd advise against it, because the name's already associated with someone else (someone who enjoys bashing webcomics and self-admiration).

Well, that would be a good point, except that I think the name-fixing thing was taken down at some point, leaving me with the option to say something like "Quantum P, can you please change my name back without making it something else already in use?"

Correct.

Actually, this is exactly what I expected to happen, given the phrasing of my request. As long as my name gets changed back eventually, I don't mind going through a few iterations of being the forum's new Butt of the Joke.

I've survived this long, haven't I? I'm so dvoraking literal sometimes I'm amazed I can pretend to understand sarcasm.

Yes. I dislike conventional swear words. "Fucking insane" would be a fine way to describe an impromptu orgy or certain redneck family trees, but I like making up swear words that are directly related to typing or technology.

ASDFfing annoying!
WASD! Not again!
What the QWERTY?

So it was YOU! You seriously scared away one of the last people who actually made quality ZZT games?

We've got MadTom Balls Saga, Nanogames, and OWN.ZZT. And I don't think the Nanogames caught on.

This is bad.

On the plus side, I'm gender ambiguous and have several new username suggestions!

wells had some balls, zamros changing his avatar would not scare him away.

he was just smart enough to leave.

I was just listening to New World Symphony earlier today!

Incidentally I have no idea what anybody is talking about. Perhaps because I am drunk but I think I'd be nearly as confused if I was sober. :tie: :tie:
