Platinumpatriot, 39

Here Comes a New Challenger! I have been told ever since I was a child that I think outside the box. As an adult, I believe that box had the word "Pandora" on the side.

Part Geek. Part Gamer. Part Otaku. All-American: that is the hook I use in less than 140 characters on all of my social networking pages. This is used to describe that I'm a little bit of everything, but not quite one thing. I'm a casual/recreational gamer. I love to teach and fighting games have been my forte since Street Fighter II: Turbo. (Want to see me run w/ something? Ask me about what makes Alpha 3 the greatest fighter ever.)

Friends are very important to me. I run with a culture pot of like-minded tabletop gamers & there never is a dull moment. My best friend & I have a Heartless / Nobody relationship because we not only think & act so much alike, I look more like his twin than his actual twin. To this day, there are people that call me by his name.

I currently work for Customer Service for Verizon, so you can imagine the clients I deal with on a regular basis. I try to lead by example and my ambitions in life remind me to never stop dreaming, never stop chasing.

I was raised Protestant, but I don't let labels define who I am, I'm the only one that can define me. I've learned through many experiences that blood can sometimes be thicker than the clarity that water provides. My social networking and places I frequent taught me the major difference between business and community...and I'm glad to have been a small part in building the gaming community we have.

I'm optimistic, but realistic. Most times, I'll err on the side of caution & that may come across as being too passive, but I try to find the path of least resistance in a situation & flow like water. (You know The Forbidden Kingdom's message about water? I believe that.)

Anything else you'd like to know, please don't hesitate to ask. I'd love to get to know you.
