Well after reading about those Hall of Famers I have one question.. who are these people.. I've never even heard of some of them.
Okay LrdApoc, given that the
Hiver Hall of Fame is so far behind at being published, here is the following week, where I think you will find most if not all of the names to be familiar!
The Next Installment of the Hiver Hall of Fame
Simsonl (Monday, 12/15/03) Despite being my flatmate, is making a good name for himself in the Surrealism Forum and the Home Is...thread. Wonderfully imaginative, and prone to rapid fire references. Also a great StarCraft player.
Sir Osis of Liver (Tuesday, 12/16/03) If you've never said his name out loud, you've never noticed the pun. And it's a good one. Devoted to beer, beer, gaming and beer, he has recently returned to us, after an illness. We're glad you're feeling better and back with us, mate! UPDATE: Arrr, he's still there, still posting, still talking about BEER! and generally having fun.
Ashwyn (Wednesday, 12/17/03) How could I have missed out the bear before? Ashwyn deserves special credit, since his first post on the news that he may be recieving a lot of money was that he was considering helping some of us come over to America for a big gathering. Our little Bear is a lovely guy, and despite what anyone might say, deserves nice things to happen to him, if only to make up for some of the not so nice things that have happened to him before.
Capellan (Thursday, 12/18/03) A newcomer, but one who has thrown himself wholeheartedly into Hivemind practices. Now unable to make his Will save first time...I congratulate him on his assimilation. UPDATE: Has been entirely sucked in. Thinking about starting a forum entitled "Arwink and Capellan play in too many games!". Also the author of possibly the most deadpan Story Hour at ENWorld, from the perspective of one Kull, Cleric of Hextor.
Khynal (Friday, 12/19/03) The fourth Admin of the Apocalypse, brought on board partly for his web fu, and partly because Khynal Rocks (it's true, there's a thread and everything).
Hellhound (Saturday, 12/20/03) ENnie award winner, and official Hairiest Hiveminder, he's involved in many online projects. I recently found out he's a big Labyrinthe fan too, which was nice. Only been posting to Hivemind since we moved to General Discussion, but racking up the count. Couldn't think of a way to mention Ambient Inc. without it sounding like blatant advertising, so I've done it instead. UPDATE: Still grinning, still hairy (although less so now, since the Haircut) and still winning games prizes for his products. Congratulations!
ARRRRR (Sunday, 12/21/03) Originally ARRRRR he was a simple farmboy. He and his employer’s daughter fell in love, but he realized that he could not support Buttercup in the needed manner, so he went off to seek his fortune. As luck would have it, his ship was attacked by the Dread Pirate Roberts, who never takes prisoners. ARRRRR’s plea to live moved Roberts and he took the boy as a valet, telling him “I'll probably kill you in the morning." ARRRRR stayed with Roberts and spent his time learning how to fight, run a ship and he eventually succeeded Roberts as the new Dread Pirate Roberts.
