Gosh! Hi there Falco. Long time, no see.

And a big welcome to all the new folks. Don't let our civility on this intro thread fool you; most of the time we're actually quite unpleasant...

If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking as you do. If some one maintains that two and two are five, or that Iceland is on the equator, you feel pity rather than anger, unless you know so little of arithmetic or geography that his opinion shakes your own contrary conviction. … So whenever you find yourself getting angry about a difference of opinion, be on your guard; you will probably find, on examination, that your belief is going beyond what the evidence warrants. Bertrand Russell

Nice to meet you! Good to see another new face.
How long ago did you try the site? We recently underwent a change-over from vBulltein to Invision Power Board, so that may have been the reason. :killingme:

And welcome back, Falco.

Hiya folks,

Newbie who's has now joined his 2nd malazan forum (the other is starvald - I remembered reading a thread on this forum that mentioned it b4 I remembered this forum, if you get my drift). I just hope I can add something. Read all MBotF books and both of ICE's I've still gotta track down copies of the Bauchelain(?) novellas and I am just lovin' this world!!!
I'm gonna see if I can get some life in those RPG design forums again. I've got plenty of ideas - and I can't seem to find a finished project anywhere!!

I've already posted a bit, but here's a proper introduction!

My name's Sam/Sammy/6314/Probie...anything but Samantha, please.

Within reason.

I was recently bemoaning the fact that none of my friends will pick up the Malazan series and start reading it (because they are clearly not awesome), and my dad said "Well, go find some then."

So I promptly joined the forums.

Welcome Sam, another fellow anime fan is always a plus.

So last night I was walking downtown for some pizza at like 1am with some friends of mine,
and someone said, "I'm so hungry I could eat a whole pizza."

I said, "I bet I could eat 100 pizzas," and no one understood me. I was sad.

Hello all,
im a new recruit and am enjoying the best fantasy fiction ever written (currently 50 of so pages into Toll). i loved this series so much that after the second book, i would read only a couple of pages at a time so i can make the pleasure last as long as possible.

"First in, last out"- Love it
