Konnichi wa, minna.
Glad to see this place is stirring with activity. I just decided to drop by that I am, at least to some extent, back. Most of you probably never even met me, but way back in the day, I was a regular around here by the account Mech Assassin. So, greetings. I hope to see some of the old folk here too; the only ones I've stayed in contact with during my extended, expanded absence is Mouser X, and Gangis. Mayhap the others are here too? Redtooth, Glenn, mp3, Marles et co. I can't quite recall everyone though, so my apologies to anyone I might have forgotten.
Anyway, good to be back. And hello to all you who I haven't met yet too.

Hello.. you must be from back in the day, cause I joined more than 3 years ago and I don't remember seeing your account.. but it could also be I just never saw you post. *shrug* and welcome back.

Heh, yes. We're talking ~8 years here. I recall being 12 when I first chatted with Mouser regarding the project, and I'm 22 now. This project is ancient, but good things come slow.

Dude!!! He's back!! It's awesome to see you man! You were 12 (well, perhaps 14) back then? Dang. I still remember the content of many of our time travel discussions. Really, that's one of my biggest disappointments, is that I don't have a record of that stuff. I'm still trying to work on my story idea, if you remember it. It's come a long way, but I still don't have any of it in writing... Due to it involving time travel, I've actually reached the "end" and have gone back to before the "start."
I'm sorry I haven't been on AIM, ICQ, or Yahoo recently. I've been having all kinds of PC problems. Not only that, but I haven't even had an IM client installed in over a year. I was using Meebo (web-based IM client) for awhile, but it caused my USB ports to stop working.
Currently, I've been using my laptop, but now it's stopped "talking" to my wi-fi adapter. Right now, I'm using my brother's Wii.
Anyway, it's great to see you back. I hope to see more of you. Mouser X over, and awaiting reply.

12 is quite accurate. Of course, since I was around the project for a while, the 14s passed there quite comfortably too. And yea, I remember the story baselines and I've got logs of our conversations there. I don't think I've got those ancient logs anymore (I've had few backup CD breakdowns over the years so lots is lost) though Too bad since they were indeed quite intriguing. Funny how being such a fanatic Chrono Trigger-player was the trigger I needed to start pondering such in the first place and our conversations certainly further helped to develop the ideas as well as expand the relevant information. Hope to see your story start coming along, of course. I figured you might be having some hardware issues since you weren't online for long times, but meh, I hope you'll overcome them given time. Communication is always much easier over messaging programs than rather quiet forums. But yea, I think I'll be around for good now. Maybe not quite as active as once upon the time, but around regardless.

Wow, we are nearing that decade mark...kind of crazy of think about. I just can't help but drop in occasionally to see how things are progressing. That's nostalgia for ya, still feeling like this is my internet "home."
It's awesome that you're back though, the board has missed your posting. We could try to get some extremely long-term chess games going again. =D

Glad to see you too, Red! Yea, I recall we had a Chess-game that was never finished. Perhaps we should get a new one going at some point. I don't think my arrival will restore the board's activity but perhaps I can strive to contribute like I used to.

Mech Assassin!!! DUDE, how are you? Great to see you back here. I'm guilty of not contributing to the boards as much as I should because I'm running around taking care of "Real Life (TM)" situations. ;P Looking forward to seeing you on here more often, though.

And you, Gangis. It's your project after all, so it's heartwarming to know that you're still around But yea, Real Lifeā¢ can be a pregnant dog and it's the reason for my prolonged absences. Now, however, all is said and done, I'm in college and life is good so looks like I'm gonna be around here a lot more. Of course, discussing with oneself is rather boring so I'm not gonna go on any posting frenzies here, but I'll see if I could drop my 2 cents every now and then.

I'm still here as well. Maybe when I finish my degree in computer science I'll be the one to help finish coding this thing
