Watch the Footage

Okay, so I had to write a bio for school. and I had this sort-of crazy idea to write a second bio... one that included the events of the ARG. this is what I came up with ^^

My name is eli_gone_crazy, and I’ve saved the world. Well, to be fair I didn’t save the world, but with the help of my friends and some badass fictionals, the world stayed in place. Now that the world is safe again, we were told to return to our normal lives. For me and several others, this means back to school. I liked writing, and over the course of my attempts to save the world, writing became something of a prerequisite. During this course, I’d like to learn how to write better, just in case my service is required again.

I am 19 years old, and I was born in [REDACTED]. I guess I’m pretty normal, though the last few months have redefined the word “normal”, at least for me. The adventures I’ve had over the last few months have been…interesting to say the least. Having nearly daily interactions with an eldritch abomination can definitely change your perspective on persuasive speaking.

As for friends and family… well I’d have to say that the past few months have helped me get out of my shell and make some really great friends. There’s nothing like the threat of universal devastation to bring people together. We did have some amazing arguments, but for some reason, the arguments brought us closer together. It isn’t perfect, but we are one big, demented family.

That’s about it I think. I am majoring in [REDACTED] but I hope to change it soon, maybe to a major that allows me to make better use of the talents I’ve discovered through my accidental recruitment into saving the world.

*Thinks this is awesome*

You know I'll say this for saving the world, it would sure make our resumes more interesting.

Indeed.

You should have used this one as the official school bio! #MadMadMad

Sweet.

I'm tempted to suggest we should all write bios like this for ourselves. Normally I'd start by writing one myself and posting it but my brain's kind of fuzzy right now so it might take me a while to get to it. Maybe other people can jump in for me?

I want to rewrite this. maybe go into more detail about the actual events, or something.

Maybe I'll do it tomorrow or on Wednesday, but I'll definitely do it

Cool!

But why you redacted your major? I believe you told us (or at least me) once. I don't remember it, but I hear the name I'll.

Well...

Pixelmage. Basement Dweller... Or rather, former Basement Dweller. I think. Things got sort of confusing lately. Most of the time I'm just normal nerd. You know the type, I won't bore you with that. Well, save for the fact that I'm not doing something nerdy right now, like hide in a corner hoping to be skipped over in the introduction. That's because things have changed a bit. I met some new people, a lot of them like me, some very different. But, we became friends and started to bond. I got a little more used to talking to others and about myself. I guess fencing off an apocalypse does that.

I've lived here in [REDACTED] my whole life. Got one year living out of town for college, but... That didn't work out so well, so I'm back, restarting my life to make it better. I'm 21, so a bit late to be starting again, but I don't really care about that, I think I have enough time and that's all I really need.

Oh, the remark about the apocalypse? No biggie. I just helped prevent the end of the world. The group I mentioned earlier? We were recruited by some creepy guy in a suit to write away the end of the world. You laugh, but I know what I did, so there.

Challenges bring people together. It changes everyone. I know it changed me and to this day I'm not sure how much those few months affected me. I gained many new friends and learned a lot. Time to put that knew knowledge to use!

Very nice, Pix.

We had to write a fake bio/profile for an imaginary "online community of some sort", introducing ourselves to our "prospective... friends". I realized I never wrote a proper introduction when I joined here, and wrote this (approximately. We had to write it by hand and hand it in right away, so I tried to reconstruct as quick as possible from memory) :

Well, it's been a while since I introduced myself online-- last time I made a forum account, I just jumped right in and only remembered to introduce myself officially a month later, by which point everyone knew me.

So... here goes nothing, though rest assured, intro or no, you'll know me well enough soon, because I talk a lot.

Mostly I talk about myself, and thinks I love-- such as reading, particularly certain works of fantastic genius (*cough* - Pratchett - *cough*); writing, particularly fiction; being Canadian; acting and singing. Oh, and saving the world. That's what I did with my friends on the last forum I joined. Don't worry, I'm sure I'll tell you the story sometime. I like telling stories.

So-- nice to meet you. If that was too much for you to bother making sense of, here's the Laconic version: Crazy, energetic nerd, headed your way.

Hi. I'm narrativedilettante, but you can call me Narra, or Dilly, or whatever you like.

Some people call me the Meta-Robin. That's the title I earned while helping to save the world. I played a pretty important role in that whole operation, something which surprised me probably more than it did anyone else. I cooperated with real and fictional people around the world to stave off an apocalypse, and even though I accomplished a lot, I was constantly humbled by the achievements of others.

Saving the world helped me grow as a person. I developed as a writer, and became part of a community. I would never have made so many new friends without the dire circumstances that brought us together. I guess in a way I'm grateful that the world was in danger, because it led to me experiencing so many wonderful things.

So here I am. I like to read, and I like to write, and I like things that are very, very silly. Serious can be good sometimes too, but silliness needs to be there to balance it.

Nice to meet you.

Hello. My name is Genndy Oda. I'm 15 years old, and I have lived in [REDACTED], MI, for my entire life. I'm... not exactly the most normal person you'll meet. I'm overly dramatic, blunt, and I play music in the halls with my laptop. Also, I can proudly say that I am part of an organization that saved the world. Laugh if you want, but if not for many of us doing what we did, 2013 would never have come. I made good friends there. If there's anything else you need to know, ask me in person. It'll probably sound better.
