1. what do you do on the internet?

Usually at least once a day |

1. What do you like to do in your spare time?
Well, I really like music, so I listen to it quiet alot. I listen to gothic, operatic, and symphonic metal (I think I've said this somewhere else on the foum), which is a mix of classical music, death metal, and often some Indian music too. It's great. I play music too: piano, trumpet, and 'cello. I'm in a brass band and a string group. And non-music-wise, I like cycling and walking. And just general stuff. |

i remember where i've heard your full name before! in that other site's poem section..! WGLMB: *snipped* (I'm getting rid of my full name from sites...) anyway, how did you happen to come along this great site? Because I'm sad, I checked up on the old EZBoard ISQD forum, and saw Sylph's topic where she links here. whats your favorite system? Eh? What kind of system? Edit: Ah, gaming system. Well, my parents won't let us have anything but a computer, but from playing on friends' systems, I think the XBox 360 is the best. whats your favorite 3 games of all time? Hmm... I think Age of Mythology, then Dungeon Siege, and then Age of Empires III (although I really like the Rise of Legends demo, so that might knock AOEIII off...) what e3 game are you most excited about? To be honest, I don't know a single game in E3. I don't really 'follow' the development of games (with a few exceptions, like AOEIII). I just have a look on the internet every now and then to see what's come out. So I'll have to pass this. what do you think of spore? (have you heard of it?) Erm, no. But after doing a quick search on Google: it looks interesting. And wierd. I'm not really sure what to think, because it's really different. I think this might make it to my list of few games whose developments I follow... what smilie on the site defines you? (if there isnt one on this site, which one is it?) Although I'm secretly Robin Hood (  ), I think it's gonna have to be 
thats enuff for now... |

Why the avatar?
Well I had old Brinkley  for too long. I felt like a change. So I found random stuff from Google image search: a leaf, a parrot, and a swirley thing. Then I mashed them all together, and came up with this! (Bigger one here)

how long should one hot-seat session go?
who should be next? (your oppiniion would be usefull...) |
||
| FishyFriend |
Like for a week as "" does? | ||
| KillerSlime |
hehe... i thought those were hot seat questions for oppinons! | ||
| louie9090 |
i'll go next... never done this before lol. i think i've figured out how it works though...
|
||
| KillerSlime |
you are asked questions. so long as they are appropriate, you will answer any question. if they are not, we can ask sylph or the poster to remove them. very, very simple. | ||
| goombapatrol054 |
by system, i meant gaming system (SNES, playstation, dreamcast etc)
also: cant you just edit our posts? WGLMB: Why, yes I can! I just noticed that Sylph's enabled it for me!
thats good to hear! -sylph: is there anyway that you can enable limited moderating powers to the current hot seater? |
||
| KillerSlime |
how long should one hot-seat session go?
Edit = Sylph I figure we'll pay this part looser and freer here and give it til the questions stop coming often; kinda like popping microwave popcorn in the old days. |
||
| goombapatrol054 |
usually they go for about a week, but it depends on how long the hot seater is here and how many questions get answered...
wglmb: if you had to be an animal, what animal you be? Hmm. Something that doesn't get eaten. Something that looks good. I've always liked orca ('killer') whales, but they can't fly (drat...), so I think most of all I'd like to be some sort of eagle. That is, if flying whales aren't real... if you had to be any mario creature, which one would you be? Sorry, I don't know any... I haven't played a mario game, except a few online replicas, and then only for a couple of minutes (until I died; I get bored of games when i keep dying...) what do you believe the 5th+ dimension to be like? Fuzzy. Definately fuzzy. ever seen one of these before? No. That's wierd...I'm sure it's not good for my eyes--they went out of focus when I first looked at it... |

have you ever seen digimon? if so, what Digimon would you be?
'fraid not. I used to watch it's nemesis, Poke'mon, though... they're not nemesises. pokemon and digimon are rather different... for instance, digimon tried new things when pokemon went over and over the same thing. what's your favorite anime? I don't think I know any... Pokemon is one! Ah. Poke'mon, then... if you could be anyone or anything, in any situation, who, what, and where would you be? Gotta go to College now... I'll carry on when I get back 
..and I'm back... This is a really tricky question. I think I'd like to be someone winning something, 'cos that's always amazing. Perhaps music-related, because I love it so much. So I reckon I'd most of all like to be someone who's just won an award for an amazing performance at a concert or something... it'd be great to be so successful in music!  
if you were on a desert island, with no chance of rescue, and you could bring one thing, what would you bring?(saying the world or a ship does not count, i think.) A genie in a bottle. Or out of one if I had to. If I couldn't find any genies (yeah, right), I'd bring a good book (probably Northern Lights). Nothing electrical, or the batteries'd run down. if your house was on fire, and you could take one thing out, what would you take? (Apart from my family?) My case of CDs. I couldn't survive without my music! not the fire? ninjas have taken over your computer. what do you use to get rid of them? After using a ninjameter to find out how seriously infested the computer is, I'd get a load of ladybirds to eat them, like they do greenfly. what's your favorite website? For fun: http://www.arcadegamesonline.com For usefulness: http://www.howstuffworks.com, or possibly http://www.bugmenot.com/. |

Why di you join this forum?
Because I enjoy the ISQD community, so wanted to join this spin-off from it. And I missed Sylph... Where did you hear of this site? (from Gooba's question's answer: Because I'm sad, I checked up on the old EZBoard ISQD forum, and saw Sylph's topic where she links here.) |

what is your least/ favorite smilie (smiley? is that how your 'sposed to spell it?)..?
Go for emoticon
And, incidentally, is my least favourite. I looks a bit daft.
My favourite is because of the expression on the little guy's face when he gets an idea!
its my favorite too if you could merge together two animals and become that animal, what would you merge/be? Human + eagle, i.e. flying person! do you believe in extraterrestrial life? if no, why not? if yes, why so? No, because --> I don't want to; I don't like the idea --> The chances of life starting are pretty slim, so the chances of it starting in two places is even slimmer --> Does it matter? There's no-where near us with life, and so if there is life elsewhere we'd never be able to 'meet' it, or contact it if you could rename yoursylph to anything, what would you be called? I like my name as it is. A combination of English (William & Gordon & Brown), Scottish (Murray) and Spanish (Luís), which are the main nationalities I'm made up of. are you obsessed about anything? Not really... are you allergic to anything? Nope how bout fuzzy kittens? 
Oh, yeah, I'm allergic to kittens that aren't fuzzy. Fortunately, all kittens are fuzzy if you could get anybody to come join this forum, who would it be? Queen Elizabeth II i know im supposed to ask only questions here, but heres a request: write a poem on the spot. right here, right now. Running through the hills, the sun goes down before me Streaks of light in my eyes fade and lose meaning (random stuff that came to me in about 10 seconds) do you play any online games? if so, which ones? Yup, lots from popcap.com and arcadegamesonline.com and elsewhere. My favourite for looks and atmosphere is The Quest for the Rest My favourite overall is Hannah and the Pirate Caves from neopets.com (which my sister has sogned up to, not me...) what is your favorite site? search engine? (go google!) Favourite site: popcap.com or arcadegamesonline.com Search engine: Google. I've tried others, but they're never as good. whats your favorite number/color? (sorry if this's been asked already..) Number: either 17 or 29. 17 because it feels pointy in my mind, and 29 because a 2 is curved and slightly squidgey and blurred, which contrasts with the rigid, crisply defined outline of the nine. (Numbers 'feel' different to me!) Colour: Red-brown, like red clay. well, that wraps it up for now. time for lisa to step in and ask some questions *hint hint* thanks for your time, wglmb You're welcome! |

Ok, lets try this question from a different vantage point. Yes, it's the much dreaded and much feared 'Space colonist' question. Don't cringe yet. I have refined it. And P.S. Aww shucks on the missing me part <kicks dirt>
Oh yeah, the question. The world is going to end. Somehow you have been placed in charge (dont ask dont tell  ) of a portion of the selection process. Only 222 people can be saved. They will be evacutated from the planet and flown to a distant inhabitable planet to respawn civilization.
The Scientists and their computer models have already selected 200 individuals to best represent the biodiversity of the planet and as much of the knowledge base as posible. Fifteen people were elected by the world to represent humankind and 7 slots are left at your discretion. You know none of these 215 people, neither thru the media nor personally. Who are the seven people you elect to save? --> Myself --> My Mum --> My Dad --> My sister --> My other sister --> My brother --> Harry Hill (a comedian). Are you one of them? I am. Why did you select the people you did? Because my family are importent to me, and because the world needs laughter

How can a network administrator logged in to RTA gather information about the Cisco devices that are directly connected to its neighbor, RTB?
--> Use the show cdp neighbors detail command on RTA to view information about every device on the entire internetwork. --> Use ping to determine the status of RTB, then issue the show cdp neighbors detail command. --> Use Telnet to connect to RTB, then issue the show cdp neighbors command. --> Use traceroute to establish the pathway to RTB, then issue the show cdp neighbors command. (basically, the question is, are you trained in somple router maitnence and/or are really lucky. a very random quesion, ne?) Erm...I don't even understand the question...  I'll go for the 3rd option...
brilliant! correct. if you could live forever, would you? No. It would be incredibly miserable having everyone else die. Plus, the world does have population problems, so it could do without people who don't die... if you controlled life and death, would you revive and/or kill anyone? who? I am very lucky (so far in life), in that no-one I know has died. So no, I wouldn't revive enyone. And I wouldn't kill anyone either, because I believe all killing is wrong. you are given a problem, that is hard. what do you do with it? (procrastinate, then speed-do it, or do it ASAP, work hard on it for long periods of time, etc. Procrastinate & speed-do-it. Fortunately for me, I'm good at doing stuff quickly but well: I can get As on 30-page pieces coursework that I do in two nights! somone asked you a bunch of random questions not intending for you to certaintly be able to answer all of them nececarily. is this a bad thing? No. Life would be boring if I knew the answer to every question put to me. |

Do you want sylph to do propaganda on you?
Sorry, don't understand the question...

are squirrels cool?
Not as cool as me. they are cool right? Maybe... right? Oh, alright. Yes, they are cool. am i your master? Well you are somehown entering my mind and forcing me to answer silly questions... your lord and master?  ...lord and master...
i kick butt right? I don't know. Have I met you? do you like star trek? The old ones, not the new ones which are basically soaps set in space. star wars? No!!! It is pathetic. I've never lasted through a whole film. I tried one, but right at the start, someone said "Well we got here safely" (or similar), and then their spaceship blew up and everyone died. How pathetic is that? x-box ps3 or wii? XBox, but I don't have anything but a computer... or are you a pc gamer? Why, yes I am. I like RTS games and one RPG (Dungeon Siege). do you game at all? 
am i cool? Not as cool as squirrels... THIS IS TO SYLPH can i do the hot seat next? Edit = Sylph: Perhaps But a new/old rule is being added if it aint already there. The best way to get into the Hot Seat: Do not ask to be in the Hot Seat.
WGLMB: So! This was a cunning plan to make a post that looked like you were asking questions, when all you really wanted was power. No-one loves me 
Joking
