(Yes, someone actually gave me this argument)
Other: Kaiko Aozora's my nick in the Pit.

Just a note--since I don't have permission yet, "Fandoms" is just fandoms I read. The animanga ones are surprisingly limited, since I'm keeping myself to ones I've finished. ^.^;

Name: Data Junkie, or Nifar. First name Raven. Yes, I know it's Sue-ish, hush. My parents are hippie gamers. >>

Other: I can be found via LJ at DataPanda, or via email at pandagamerx@yahoo.com

We all seem to be saying we like reading. So let's talk about that.

My In Progress books at the moment are:

The Two Towers - I galloped through FotR in January, and put TTT in my bag so it'd be to hand, and then somehow never sort of got on with it. Just got to the crossroads.

A Fortress of Grey Ice, by J V Jones - someone on my flist recced it because, and I quote, "dude, I think my elf analogues are gay". Loving the series so far.

Peter F Hamilton's The Dreaming Void. Started it on a train. Liked, didn't quite continue, read seventeen other books instead.

Figments of Reality by Jack Stewart and Ian Cohen. These guys are my glods. I always have one of theirs on the go.

Plus more information helps differentiate between people with similar names and maybe will help newbies be less confused?

*shamelessly ganking Ansela's format because it is nice and makes for less thinking* :P

Name: Makari Crow or Makari Tengu, depending on the situation.
Gender: Female (oddly, I often get mistaken for male. I'd thought Makari sounded feminine but... no?)
Nationality: American, though I attend university in Canada.
Fandoms: Tales of Symphonia, Tales of the Abyss, FFVII-FFXII, Katekyo Hitman Reborn!, Old Kingdom etc., Kingdom Hearts, theoretically xxxHolic and Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle -- these are the high points. I like and am familiar with a lot more, but... yeah.
Hobbies: writing (original and fan), reading (again, original and fan), occasional drawing, most JRPGs, dance, sewing, singing, knitting, breaking various brains, and tempting fate.
Likes: All of the above. Also dogs, vibrant and eye-searing colors, good and well-thought-out AUs of the non-high school variety, this place, hand-knit socks and hats, the theatre, friends, friendly acquaintances, people who put up with me talking too much, and much much more.
Dislikes: Simple misspellings that could be caught by anyone with half a brain and an elementary grasp of phonics (alternately, a spellchecker), contrived plot, blatant misuse of the English language ('voice' in prose is one thing. Rampant unintelligibility is another.), pressure, those songs that get played literally every opportunity possible on the radio, and bad movie adaptations. And so on.
Other: I have two settings so far as socializing: almost completely mute or talking ears off. :D

Name: Araeph
Gender: Female
Nationality: American
Fandoms: Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, Star Trek
Hobbies: Reading, writing, drawing, playing the violin, and mocking bad fanfiction.
Likes: Mexican hot chocolate, great writing, proofreading (my day job), winter weather, the Spanish language, mythology
Dislikes: Mary Sues, bashing of strong female canon characters, and OOCness. I don't dislike technical errors...I love them. They're usually the highlight of my day. :D
Other: My agents are Mara and Isaiah. I've been with the PPC since 2003.

Name: Huinesoron, hS, or David.
Gender: Male
Nationality: British
Fandoms: Well, I don't spend much time in fandom any more, but I'm still essentially Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Doctor Who (old and new), Discworld. I dabble in many others, though.
Hobbies: Reading, writing, Minecraft. I play various other computer games, but none consistantly. I pretend to learn various coding languages and methods occasionally. Mostly I read.
Likes: My wife, Heather Dale's music, books I haven't read before by authors I like, fanfics I have read before and like (which makes me rubbish at reading newer PPC missions, I'm afraid).
Dislikes: Authors who take ages to write their next book, having to go to bed at a reasonable time, work, work, work, not being able to finish writing things I start.
Other: My wife is Kaitlyn, who was once active on the Board, but isn't really any more. I don't write PPC missions very often nowadays, but tend to do stuff about hypothetical histories and futures of the PPC, when I do anything at all.

hS

Name: Tungsten_Monk (Tungsten, TM, TWM)
Gender: Female
Nationality: American
Fandoms: GI Joe, Harry Potter, DC Comics (mostly Batman), Watchmen, Discworld, Lord of the Rings, Team Fortress 2, Artemis Fowl, Harry Dresden, too many others to name
Hobbies: Reading, writing original fiction, costume-making, fanfiction (oh God, so much fanfiction!), drawing comics, goofing around with my brothers
Likes: Classic folktales and myths with all the original gory bits left in, bogeyman stories, a sense of humor even in drama, putting story over message, historical accuracy, respecting villains as characters even if they're going to be defeated, psychotic protagonists (Rorschach, etc)
Dislikes: Dim fangirls who think that psychosis is sexy (again, Rorschach--he's a great character, but you would NOT want to meet him), bad grammar and spelling, OOC pairings (be it slash, het, incest, whatever), Mary Sues, the presumption that good equals sexy, and Twilight.
Other names used: You'll find me lurking on ff.net as Totenkinder Madchen, and I used to be on some fanfic sites as Bronze Clockwork.
Trivia: The W in TWM comes from Wolfram, the original name of the element of tungsten. It was sort of bestowed on me by the boarders here, so now it's considered my middle name. :D
I spent one year writing "Thief of Midnight" and three years getting it published. Publishing Time is not the same as our Earth Time.
I have a strong affection for henchmen, secondary villains, and the other little nobodies who make fictional universes run so well. My current big fanfiction project is a story about life in GI Joe, told from the POV of a base cook--somebody who would never be mentioned in canon, but who must exist in order for the unit to function.

... ow. *rubs nose.

Likes: History, popcorn, diet soda, The Daily Show, anything with Stephen Fry, crossword puzzles, anything by Bill Bryson or Dave Barry, well supported and plausible slash

Dislikes: Political punditry, people who spout opinions without first doing any research, people who yell or sing into their headphones while playing online video games, stupid comparisions to Hitler or the Nazis, tomatoes

Other: My missions are posted on LJ under the name vgdivision. My name on the Paranoia Live bboard is Elm-R-FUD.

Name: Helen
Gender: female
Nationality: American (specifically the Northwest)
Fandoms: LOtR, anything Neil Gaiman, Susan Cooper, Sherlock Holmes (the books, not the movie), Battlestar Galactica, anything Joss Whedon, V, Starsky and Hutch, Princess Bride (book and movie), and if I list everything we'll be here all night

Dislikes: taking Latin, actually having to work, people who are too lazy to be intelligent, people who are incompetent

Extra: writing is my life, I do very little else and I'm normally not all that talkative, hence my lurker status.
I guess that's it. huh, that was kind of fun.

Helen of Pylos (the face that launched half a dozen ships, 'cause everything's smaller in Pylos)

(Pen)Name: Sedri
Gender: Female
Nationality: British/Aussie/Kiwi-ish
Fandoms: Star Trek (all series except the original 60s), Wicked, Stardust, Narnia, Harry Potter (mostly inactive), Lord of the Rings(mostly inactive), Pirates of the Caribbean (mostly inactive), Enchanted(mostly inactive), and quite a few more that I dip my toes into from time to time. (Also, to the shock and horror of some around here, I have actually read all the Twilight books, and I did not hate them. I didn't like the gushy "oh-he's-so-gorgeous" prose, the two main characters, or the love story (therefore, 80% of the text), but I rather liked the rest.)
Hobbies: reading and writing (or is that too obvious to mention?), singing, and... more reading.
Likes: Good AUs (particularly the fix-it kinds), character explorations, logical extrapolations and plot extentions, fluffy romance (sometimes), and non-dirty humour, particularly when it's family-oriented.
Dislikes: cliches, cheap humour, implausible plots, forced romances, and sneaky OOCness that is hard to spot and therefore seeps into my brain while reading fanfic making it very difficult for me to keep a grip on canon characterisations when I write - this is why I try not to read any fanfic in the relevant continuum when I'm working on a story. And chatspeak, spelling errors, and bad grammar. I work as a proofreader, and I have a knife. You have been warned.
Other: On both Livejournal and FanFiction.Net I am "Sedri".

Well, there probably are reasons, but I don't care. And I'll copy your format out of laziness unoriginality.

Name: Vixenmage, VM, other assorted aliases, including Pax and others

Gender: Female

Nationality: American

Fandoms: Lord of the Rings (including all related works), House MD, Harry Potter, Tortall, Circle of Magic, Sandman, American Gods, Discworld, Dresden Files, Codex Alera, Runescape, Oblivion, mythologies, and other assorted tomfoolery.

Hobbies: Walking, singing, writing (obviously), playing guitar/French Horn/trumpet/harmonica-badly, whistling, climbing things, drawing, biking, playing Oblivion, roleplaying in general (but especially chat-based), making things up.

Likes: writing, English, language in general, music in almost every form, stories, characters, roleplaying, Outdoors, trees, The Ocean, mountains, tiny moments that make life a little more beautiful, interesting conversations, making something out of nothing, mythology of all kinds, artists, art, craziness, vegetarian sushi (avocadoes ftw!), birds, feathers, the taste of oil pastel (don't ask), chocolate, tea, coffee, loose and well-graffiti'd T-shirts, clothes that are about comfort instead of lust, metaphysics, conversations about metaphysics, people who can talk about theology without profanity, interesting and poignant and artistic graffiti... (I'll leave it; pages of everything that make life awesome are unnecessary, y'all can fill in the blanks)

Dislikes: chatspeak, leetspeak, netspeak, replacing letters with numbers, replacing words with numbers, (A/N: LOLZ! These stupid fracking things!!!1), idiots, the willfully ignorant, mindless vandalism, discussions that turn into angry arguments, poor characterisation, prejudice of any kind, stigmatizing against mental illness, classes where you don't learn anything, clutter (hypocritically so), cockroaches, people who kill spiders/bugs outside, litter, antagonism.

Other: I think we should share more non-PPC-centric ideas here. I miss the abundance of OT threads we used to have, though I think a lot of that gets siphoned off to the IRC, which is alright. It'd just be fun to see more craziness.

Oh heck, I'll jump on the bandwagon. I love the community too.

Name: PitViperOfDoom
Gender: Female
Nationality: American, half-Chinese on my mother's side
Fandoms: Redwall, Happy Tree Friends, Avatar the Last Airbender, sometimes Harry Potter, and I'm starting to look more into the L4D fandom.
Hobbies: Reading, writing, and drawing. I also love the outdoors, thanks to my mother's tendency to drag the family on crazy backcountry adventures.
Likes: Constructive criticism, cats, Chinese takeout, music in general, ferrets, and hiking/camping/miscellaneous outdoor activities.
Dislikes: Trolls, paperwork, homework, bad OOCness, stubborn writers who assume all negative reviews are flames, and fundamentalists. I really, really don't like fundamentalists.
Fun facts: I'm obsessed with a bunch of video games that I've never actually played before. I am completely indifferent to Twilight; there are some things I like about it and a lot of things I don't. I am very liberal. I often find myself enjoying movies that critics/everybody say are absolutely horrible. There are exactly three movies I have seen that I have not enjoyed: Dragon War: D-War, The Golden Compass (only temporarily, though), and Where the Wild Things Are.

My original introduction thread was not long ago, but I'll hop on the bandwagon, because why not?

Name: Nat, Lleu (Llaw Gyffes is optional)
Gender: male
Nationality: American, but I have always felt that I was meant to be Canadian
Fandoms: I am taking this with an implied "...that I would work in", as "things I like" proved to be too broad an interpretation. In no particular order, Animorphs, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, The Dark is Rising, Young Wizards, Diana Wynne Jones, Tamora Pierce (I tend to prefer the Circle books), Star Wars, Star Trek (particularly ENT and TNG), Pern, and there are probably a bunch of others that I'm forgetting. There are also things I like that I don't know that I'd want to work with.
Hobbies: role-playing games (I haven't had the chance to RP online in a very long time...actually, ditto for tabletop, unfortunately), writing, reading, various computer games (particularly Civ3 and KotOR), conlanging, languages, making RPG characters I will never use
Likes: good slash, listening to music, French, good books, D&D, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, Italian food, poutine
Dislikes: coffee and tea, fruit, my mind is failing to bring up other things I dislike, so eh
Other: I'm on tumblr as fralusans-ana-marein (or, if you're interested in my conlang stuff, the not-updated-in-forever constructed-adventures); I am also known on the internet variously as Pahh(ur/wenaz), Arunaza, and Sectori.

As someone else, MAXinsanity, I think, said, I hold that fictional characters are real, in the sense that they have existence in the mind. Conceptual existence and physical existence are distinct characteristics which sometimes exist and sometimes do not.

Well, here's me. I guess this'll help for the Seattle Gathering...

Name: Pretzel or Christy
Gender: Female
Nationality: Native of Mukilteo, Washington (American)
Fandoms: Oh, geez. Um, let's see... Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Discworld, Narnia, Eureka, Firefly/Serenity, Warehouse 13, CSI, CSI: NY, NCIS, NCIS: LA, Star Wars, ST:TNG, ST:Voy, Are You Being Served?, Monty Python, Nero Wolfe, Sherlock Holmes, Leverage, Lie To Me, Rocky Horror, Riese the Series, Sanctuary, Harper's Island

The list goes on and is continually changing...
Hobbies: Writing (both fanfic and original fiction), reading, hanging out with my friends & family
Likes: the cheesy made-for-tv movies on the SyFy channel, books, the Nostalgia Critic/ Nostalgia Chick movie/tv reviews, The "Minds" machinima series (save for Felix's Mind), chocolate, good books/fic, steampunk
Dislikes: Not much, save for retch-worthy physics in a movie, bad writing, OOCness, people who use chatspeak in their everyday speech, people who are intolerant of other peoples' views, the vocal minority who give religions and other social groups a bad name
Other: I'm a closet (no pun intended) slash fan, mainly for Stargate Atlantis, even though I don't write it myself. I tend to latch onto side characters, and often it'll be those that people aren't particularly fond of, like Doctor Kavanagh from Stargate Atlantis. I proudly claim the title of geek girl, and don't care what people think about that. I'm a fraternal twin (though people rarely believe it when they see my twin; we're both girls, but she's 5'9" and a redhead, and I'm 5'2" and a brunette), have at least three "adopted" brothers, and tend to laugh at vaguely inappropriate moments during movies. I have an odd sense of humor, and am rather snarky when the mood takes me. I have been part of two ARGs (Alternate Reality Games), including one that's currently ongoing.

Name: Miah
Gender: Female
Nationality: American (Don't call me a Yankee, I'm Southern!)

Fandoms: Sherlock Holmes, NCIS, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Monty Python, Anne McCaffrey, Star Trek (except Voyager and Enterprise), Star Wars (Episodes 4,5,6 and some of the extended verse, especially the X-Wing series), LotR, Mark Twain

Hobbies: Writing original and PPC fics, Reading original fiction and fanfics, research, making overly detailed plans that I know are not likely to amount to anything, being overly optimistic, making pictures of characters.

Likes: Goodfic, reviews, chocolate, brownies, iced tea, Chinese food, reviews, chatting, Cajun food, learning new things, documentaries, reading out loud to my kids, cuddling with my husband, reviews, movies based on comic book characters. IC fics of any sort, but I am particularly fond of non-sex hurt/comfort. (Whump: all about torturing the character and then putting them back together again without the sex that is common in standard hurt/comfort.)

Dislikes: Cleaning house, bugs, pollen, mold, heat (basically the outdoors 9-10 months of the year), sudden changes, face-to-face interactions in groups of less than about five, stupid rules, OOCness, canon breakage, cinnamon flavored candies, mornings, glitchy or slow computers and programs.

Other: I am pretty much Miah everywhere I go. Occasionally I am Miah79 (like on the wiki) or Miah.Arthur (like my gmail) or MiahArthur (like my LJ), but Miah is always in there somewhere. I write Agents Miah Arthur and Cali Still in DMS Freelance; RC 4096 (The Lair). I also write Agents (David) Kelok and Unger recently transferred to the All-Purpose Department, Sherlock Holmes Division; RC 1729 (The Fire Pit).

I am working on understanding and writing humor, and improving my use of dialogue. I have a real problem with grammar, like a grammar phobia. It doesn't make sense. It has variable applications. Nothing can be said, "Always do this with this thing". Anyway, I do try, and I always request a beta that can check grammar before I publish a mission or interlude. That doesn't stop me from making errors in Board posts, chats, and emails, though.

Here, have some facts on me:

1. My name is... I'm not telling. Privacy is an extremely important thing to me, though I will say I have an identical twin, and that I'm male (As is my twin). I'm not exactly a very confident person when it comes to... well... anything, really. What I have been told, however, is that I'm an amazing writer and roleplayer by people on the internet.

2. I first started writing stories as a way to vent my anger and other emotions, as well as to escape from my loneliness and general other negative crap. I've kinda grown out of that now, and have changed from minor wish fulfillment crap to exploring the concept of fiction itself and generally making the fourth wall less than non-existent (As seen in my entry for Fanfic Land, "Things Unsaid").

3. I have a bit of an odd belief that fiction is "real" in a very odd, vague sense. After all, we end up creating such incredibly detailed worlds and people... Nothing too crazy, though. My tendency to overdevelop my characters' personalities and create them first and foremost as people as opposed to just characters for a story probably stems from this.

4. I have very slight feelings for Alice Alexandria, my Breloom pokemorph character... Let's just leave it at that... Doesn't help that she's one of the most developed characters I have, personality-wise...

5.I'm interested in quite a few video games, including Pokemon, NiGHTS Journey of Dreams, Monster Hunter, Left 4 Dead, and more recently the Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. You can blame my friends for that one. I don't watch much TV, finding the internet a far more reliable source of entertainment.

6. I LOVE MUSIC. Music is one of those things I wouldn't be able to live without! Except country, I hate country.

7. You probably know this, but I lack a sense of humor. Hardly anything is funny to me, and I can't write humor for my life.

...And yeah. That's all I'm gonna disclose.

Likes: fanfic: OCs, stories that mesh with canon; general: avoidance of cliches, three-dimensional characters and shades of gray
Dislikes: bad grammar, lack of responses to the readers (for stuff posted online), people who jump to fight someone without making sure they know what was said, people who think the world is about sex, people who use words incorrectly (like saying a shy person is "antisocial"), anyone trying to convert me to a religion, people who value making money now above saving resources/the environment so we can make money later

You will only find me as Barid in the PPC. On various other websites (DeviantArt being one example) I am diceanddagger (a reference to the Wheel of Time series). My PPC LJ is RC1986.

Well, I'm going to take your format and modify it slightly, 'cause it works and it's easy. {= )

Name: Neshomeh
Gender: Female
Age: 25
Nationality: American
Fandoms (copied from my wiki page): Animorphs, Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica (2003), Discworld, Dragonriders of Pern, Farscape, Firefly/Serenity, Fullmetal Alchemist, Harry Potter, Heroes, House, M.D., Jekyll & Hyde (book and musical), Lord of the Rings, Phantom of the Opera (Leroux, Kay, and Webber), Young Wizards, etc. I'll also add Sharpe, because while it's not a major fandom of mine, it IS an awesome one. ^^ I should add How to Train Your Dragon, too, 'cause that movie is made of win and one of the PPCs I'm working on is set there.

Hobbies: St. Dymphna's Academy tops the list right now. It's awesome and anyone who likes role-playing who isn't already there should join up when the next game-year starts. Shockingly, my hobbies include role-playing (online and tabletop). They also include writing, reading, drawing, drinking tea, and listening to music. I sing, but I haven't been able to join a group since I moved, which is really sad.

Likes: Barid, tea of almost any kind, cats, chocolate, long walks on the beach humor, things making sense, making things make sense, music, learning about new things.

Dislikes: The corporate system, bad writing, bad science, people who don't think before speaking/hitting "send", people who whine about being inferior, especially while exhibiting no signs of willingness to improve; sudden loud noises.

Other: I go by Neshomeh pretty much everywhere--deviantART, ff.net, Fiction Press, Photobucket, probably others. There are a few exceptions, though: on Gaia Online I'm Neshomehsoul because someone was actually using Neshomeh when I got there; on Neopets (where I don't really go anymore) I'm Neshomeh_soul because my original account got deleted for a stupid reason; and on YouTube, it's not me. I don't have a YouTube account. My contact information, should you want it, is on my wiki page. A lot of the information in this post is on my wiki page, too, in case you want to look it up in the future. It would be nice if everyone's information were on their wiki pages in case people wanted to look them up in the future. *hint hint*
