    People think I'm weird for having DDR in my home gym setup... it's right next to the power rack and inbetween the bench and treadmill. I'll represent the DDR (or Stepmania) love.

    lol if you are serious you are my hero. i have to go to the mall to play ddr.

    @FitGeekery I think WoW is the only one I don't play, lol. Lets see: Final Fantasy 14, Star Wars Old Republic, Star Trek Online, EverQuest 2, DC Universe Online. Then of course, the free to plays: Rift, Defiance, Neverwinter. I usually get to max level, and then stop cause I'm not a fan of the grind after.

    Currently playing(Other than listed MMO's):
    Mass Effect
    Dark Souls
    Borderlands 2
    Defense Grid 2
    Neverwinter Nights 2
    Dragonball Xenoverse
    Shadows of Mordor
    Dragon Age: Inquisition
    Civilization 5(will be playing this forever, at this rate)
    Diablo 3

    Waiting on:
    Fallout 4
    Rockband 4

    i have never been able to get in to fallout. tried playing it a million times but always quit pretty quickly. same w/ dark souls, but that is a different story. whats your borderlands 2 character like? i was playing that super hard last spring, then went back and played through 1 and the presequel. 2 has gotta be my favorite. love diablo but it gets old fast imo *by fast i mean after 80-90 hours of grinding straight lol

    I am serious. I haven't invested in the metal pad, but that's just because space won't allow it. But I do have a firm foam pad connected to my PS2 and that's connected to my stereo and the tv mounted to the wall in my gym. So, yeah... cardioz for teh winz. (as long as it's DDR)

    Science and tech lover here. I love all forms of sci fi, I love using gaming as a distraction from eating, I love anime and dr who, I spent way too much time in university studying engineering and physics and now I am wasting time fiddling with arduino projects that don't serve mankind in any way lol.

    All sci fi, science, gaming and tech nerds welcome to friend me!

    @dogcatac @BecomingBane I've never played DDR but I'm not gonna lie, I'm not sure I'm coordinated enough for it XD

    @BecomingBane Sending a request, can't have too many Supervillains-in-training LOL

    @outboundhat Haha yeah that's an awesome part of the app, isn't it? Definitely adds to the investment when you run, gotta keep those people in your base taken care of!

    @qubetha Sci-fi ftw! I've been starting to do the same with gaming, and it's one of the funnest distractions from food that I have ;) Adding you!

    Hello!

    I'm a geeky gamer girl who's managed to stumble and fumble on this journey more times than I can count, but still grinding it out and refusing to give up ;)

    About me:

    Height 5'4", CW 205lbs, GW 120-130lbs, planning to cook again (I'm a durned good cook and it's easier to make things healthy that way. Also... I'm a hobbit LOL), start the C25K program and if that doesn't kill me I'll pick up some Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred as well.

    I've got a wide and eclectic taste in all things geeky: from zombie/post-apocalypse anything (Walking Dead show, Mad Max movies, Resident Evil, Fallout) to fantasy (Game of Thrones, Skyrim, Zelda, Final Fantasy) to sci-fi (Firefly! Mass Effect, Dune series) to comics (BATMAN! Justice League, X-Men).

    If it's remotely nerdy or geeky I'm probably into it or want to be LOL

    Hoping to find some more MFP-active friends for mutual geekiness, support and inspiration (You guys have been my biggest heroes so far!). You can never have too much in my opinion and goodness knows some days it takes an army to pick yourself up again hehe

    So feel free to add me and good luck on this epic journey!

    You're amongst friends here :) Also a geek girl, I'm into all the things you've listed and cosplay, just got back from Dragoncon a couple weekends ago and still hungry for more! Not quite a hobbit, maybe an Elf (I'm 5'10) Please add me! Love to have fellow geeks to encourage and get encouraged from :heart:

    My hubby and I are looking into joining a community D&D group at our local game store. We're kind of nervous, though, as we've only played with friends before. Anyone have any experience with this? How did it go?
