    Even though you can't tell by looking at me... Me = gamer, metalhead, general nerd, LOTR fanatic (well, fantasy stuff in general)... Computers, technology, GLASSES ;), Comic books, Marvel universe, Some DC stuff too... Also, Walking Dead obsession. :P

    Yes!! Welcome to the family. I'm a consoler. I have 7. But I'm mainly on my 360 right now.

    I'm a Sony guy, but I've had all of them except the xbox one... I actually still have my Atari (was my dad's), NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Dreamcast, GameCube, N64. :P

    Me! Me! I'm a super nerd. Harry Potter? Check! Game of Thrones? Check! LOTR? Check! Walking Dead? Check! The Hunger Games? Check! Super heros? Check! Especially my main squeeze Batman! I have a book collection taking over my living room and I'm perfectly ok with it. I love Sci-Fi and fantasy. I'm also a science geek and work in a lab. I'm a geek all the way around. Always looking for friends! Add me :)

    Let's take a second to talk about the awesomeness that is the n64. I mean, it just doesn't die. All hail.

    Looking for support from fellow gamers, nerds and geeks alike! Im in just about every fandom you can imagine, I mean my daughters name is Amelia Rose. Lol. Doctor Who fans will understand. I also own 7 gaming systems and way too many books. If you are like me, add me and we can support each other while talking about nerdy things. :)
    I'm the wrong kind of geek. Haven't played a video game since Super Mario.

    I'm a fan of fantasy as well. I'm a huge RPG player, actually playing Dragon Age Inquistion right now. Yay Dragons!! I'm reading Game of Thrones to try and catch up on that trend. YAY DRAGONS!!

    Playing Dragon Age Inquisition now!!! :D Love it, but I kinda suck at xbox, lol, too many buttons (sometimes have to ask my 10 yo for help!). Determined to finish the game even if it takes forever.

    Huge reader and I've read all of the Game of Thrones books and need to catch up on the show. Lover of supernatural stuff and almost all things vampire and were ;)

    Teaching myself how to knit....

    not really a "geek" here (to lazy/dumb/cheap to be part of the PC master race), I AM pretty dorky though. anime, comics/manga and games. I just started "the evil within" and "freedom wars"! I have a bit of a backlog after those black Friday sales!

    One of my big secret reasons for my journey to fitness is so I can put together a retro pinup Wonderwoman cosplay next fall!

    I love Doctor Who, Supernatural, HP, gaming and a lot more. I even hand make miniature replica of various props from my favorite fandoms in the form of jewelry. Everyone here should friend me!

    Wow, D&D is still around? That is amazing. I haven't touched it in over 20 years. I was big into in the 80's, before they did some things and had it slide downhill with that whole 2nd Edition thing that was completely incompatible with the old releases. Ticked a bunch of us off, and I had to put it aside because of other things as well. Used to have a huge box to haul around with all the stuff.

    See, I need to get with the 360 plug in! With my daughter a little over 1, she has learned to turn the tv off and on and it makes my gaming days less and less. Killing me. Between her, school and exercising, I don't get to game a whole lot.

    You know you have to drop the consoles and become a member of the PC Master Race. You must transcend.

    My superfandom are the Winchesters...hopefully us "Supernatural" folks are included here too. Of course love Dr. Who, Sherlock, LOTR, and so on, lol.

    I am an oldie here, 50 next month.

    Jeannine in Missouri striving for Immortality.

    Ahhh fellow SPN fen! (And, for that matter, basically everything else.) Have you watched Sleepy Hollow? As much as I love Supernatural, the first season of Sleepy Hollow is basically everything from Supernatural done better. :D

    Also, this whole thread is great. :D My son is named after Miles from the Vorkosigan series of books by Bujold. I definitely lean more sci-fi than fantasy, though I adore Game of Thrones. (Except the book that didn't have any of the characters I liked in it. Harrumph.)
