Well met, rookie! Please enjoy this jar of Awesome Sauce (guaranteed to contain fresh squeezed Awesome, not from concentrate) as a welcoming gift.

Hi, welcome to the PPC. :D

Please start with reading this and everything it links to if you have not already.

Also, please leave the tropes on TV Tropes, because contrary to what HerrWozzeck said, we're not actually especially fond of TVTropes, Tropers, or tropes.

And feel free to hop into the IRC channel, there's a link up top of the board. :)

We love new people, and especially Tropers! :D

Here, have some Luigi Dallapiccola for the road: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lJziJbu97w

Completely forgot to list them in my introduction post!

As an avid gamer, I'm very familiar with the Zelda, Metroid, Portal, and Starcraft 'verses. I am also a fan of anything Orwell wrote as well as Redwall and Discworld (though it's been ages since I last read the books, so I'm slightly rusty).

Also, it seems I've scattered (nm)(nm)s all over. *Scuttles around, scooping them up*

Welcome! Take this slightly defective portal gun. I would not suggest going through any portals it may make.

Here, have some line noise and a bottle of Bleepka.

Greetings, new friend! Have a plastic bag. Just remember, it is NOT a jellyfish. Do NOT eat the plastic bag, Mr. Turtle.

Welcome to the Board! Here have some chocolate and enjoy your stay!

... although I don't have an account and don't edit stuff, so I guess that makes me a demitroper. Being in the similar situation of having nebulous amounts of time, proficiency in the long-lost art of lurking, and general admiration for everything PPC does, it seems only natural that I give you a long-distance high five and welcome!

*gives SeaTurtle a PPC bumper sticker*

Welcome aboard!

(And our apologies for the troll.)

Hello, Turtle-of-the-Sea!

Have a Holy Hand Grenade (Do not use near rabbits. Or do, but only evil ones.)

Here, have a sentient shield. No, I don't know how it came to be that way.

Hi, have some fudge!
