Alright so thank you to...my friends I guess (seriously how did all of you look at my profile so quickly?! You guys are like some kind of awesome gamer army) for telling me how to use this blog properly :] My name is Cait, lately I've been posting on the forums as Caiters. Don't ask why I made two separate user names. I'm not entirely sure why. (EDIT: Fixed user name for optimal radness).

I've been playing games forever yada yada pretty much same story as everyone here I assume. My best friend began blogging professionally on Wow Insider and suggested that I start getting my ideas out on e-paper just as a hobby. So that's why I started c8-bit.com.

So I guess here I can get a little more personal :]

I'm 24 years old and technically a yuppie in the DC metro area -- which is definitely a huge leap for me coming out of college (I feel so grown up!). I can afford more consoles and games, but working an office job has obviously left me less time for gaming so I finish things...extremely slow.

Right now I'm in the midst of Fable III, Plants vs Zombies (best 5 bucks I've ever spent holy crap), Peggle Nights, The Secret of Monkey Island, and some various other games I need to finish like Silent Hill: Homecoming and Harvest Moon: TOT. I'm hoping to get to Psychonauts soon -- I kind of fell in love with Tim Schafer after Brutal Legend.

I'm generally into RPGs, puzzle games, silly games, etc. I'd have to say my favorites are Earthbound (SNES), NiGHTS Into Dreams (Saturn), The Neverhood (PC), Ocarina of Time (N64), the Katamari series, most of Bioware's games (the Mass Effect series, Neverwinter Nights, KOTOR...)

I'm super excited for Dragon Age II and Mass Effect 3 -- although I'm really hoping they don't tard up DA2 after everything I've been reading about.

So, that's a little about me -- feel free to ask me questions, tell me lies, the boys are in the bathroom zipping up their flies...

Who told you about the army operations? That's classified information! To answer your confusion about the profile-finding, whenever you write a post, it ends up at the top of the Cblog section, and there are many loyal readers who are always eager to welcome new guys (like what I'm doing). That's the beauty of the Cblogs: you have a built-in readerbase the instant you sign up! If I were you, I would write not at c8-bit, but here instead. This is one of the best communities you can find on the net!

And now...
*ahem!*
WELCOME TO DTOID! DODONGO DISLIKES SMOKE!

(man, I haven't used that one in ages!)
Welcome to the cblogs we have fun and games

Also the dead hookers are in the corner next to explosive dildos
Ah that explains it. Well, on the bright side, I got to look at a lot of hilarious pics (I especially enjoyed that creeper from Majora's Mask).
Welcome to the Community!

Beard-man hybrid Occams will be here shortly to give you your introductory prizes.
Welcome to Destructoid: we drank dat peach tea, son!
You get automatic points for Katamari.

That game is quite possibly the most underrated game of forever. I love you now.
Welcome to Dtoid! :)
Hey Caiters, I'm playing Fable III too. I'm early in the game yet, I just won the hearts (and minds!) of the good people of Brightwall!

I love the games sense of humor and it's refusal to take itself too seriously despite the epic revolutionary overthrow the King plot. I'm finding the games lack of a menu system a bit confusing though.

Welcome to Dtoid!!!
I kind of fell in love with Tim Schafer after Brutal Legend.

I see nothing but good things brewing between you and I. Welcome.
I thought I was the only one who played Harvest Moon Tree of Tranquility! This is what it sounds like, when doves cry.

Welcome to the C-Blogs!
I fucking hate new people. Ugh. Oh wait, that's the exact opposite of what I'm supposed to say. Welcome to the C-Blogs.

I take it though if you love Tim Schafer, you'd ptobably love Costume Quest. You should check that out ASAP if you haven't already.
Hello. Welcome to the c-blogs. Here is your decoder ring. It's a fragile thing, like the tears of an angel but it will help you on your way. We want to love you here. We crave love. Shine for us, like a thousand burning Christmas trees. Be brilliant. Inspired. Let us into your life and your mind will swell with raw power.
Welcome to Destru-

You're from the forums?

Welcome to the C-Blogs, AKA heaven. We have the GOOD cookies here.

Don't ask about the IRC. Just don't.

And Psychonauts is $10 on Steam if you have a PC that can run Half Life 2.
Thanks all for the warm and hilarious welcomes :]

KwikPwn -- I'm pretty early in Fable III too. Not to keep plugging my blog, but I just posted about my thoughts on it earlier today. I'll have to start posting my thoughts on here and figure out a balance between the two...

RenegadePanda -- Katamari is underrated? Even my mom loves it :] I have to admit though, nowadays it is pretty niche.

HandsomeBeast -- Actually, I think TOT is ranked in the top 20 most played games on the Wii as far as play time goes. But yeah I don't like to talk about it too much because my addiction is embarrassing...

Garethxxgod -- I've heard such great things about it, definitely going to get it soon after I finish all this stuff.
Oh hi, and welcome.
Hello again.
Welcome to the blogs, it is a pleasure to have you. There seems to be several new people joining our ranks today, enjoy your time here and watch out for that Dixon guy.
Welcome! I must have missed your first post, but this one is good.
Keep it up, and there will be cake.
Welcome. Northern Virginia here *east coast high five*

So Kitters...welcome...back?
