Dunno, how its handled in the States  ? 

M (what DA:O and Mass Effect are rated) is 17+. That's the highest rating you'll ever see (retail stores won't carry AO games).

YOU two guys are lucky, for THIS moment!

But i will keep watching you children, so behave!

Did I mention that I have a 65" HD TV? Sure, that may not be an "interesting fact", but it still kicks ass.

@Seagloom and VoD - I still sleep with a stuffed animal too. She's a wolf named Boadicea.
I also still have Laura, my favorite Cabbage Patch doll (previously mentioned on Page 2) which is in similiar shape to your bear, Seagloom.  Laura's left arm has been sewn back on a few times....

(Is it just me or are the forums a little buggy today?)

I'm not sure what the origin of my IRL name is.  Either Scandinavian or Greek depending what website I check.  One would think there would be a big enough difference there to avoid confusion, but apparently not.
In case possibilities of the origin of my name does not count as in interesting fact, I will share that I'm German (mostly), Irish, French, Italian and Dutch -- aka an American mutt.

By taking a look at your profile and if my ethimology does not mistake me, your name is an adaptation of the Greek masculine Krysthos. So that´s bassicaly "blessed one".



The Celt one is my second actual name; my first is a latin adaptation of the Hebrow. My screen name is the genuinely Celtiberian.

[Steel Moon]

Supposedly it means "Christ-bearer" for the sites that say Scandinavian, or "Follower of Christ" for Greek or Latin; either of which I find to be very ironic, incidentally.

I don't really know anything about Celtiberian names.  Are they derived from Gaelic?  What does yours mean?

[Statulos]

Celtiberians and pre-Roman population of Iberia in general are quite an enigma for almost everything.



We have no idea at all if they spoke a gaelic language though, considering the great material resamblance between different celtiberian tribes and Central European cultures (some stuff I have excavated is closer to La Tène than Gallic stuff that is geographicaly closer!); we assume that they did.



Problem is that the language was completely obliterated by the Roman conquest; both in the Levantine area (Catalonia, Valencia, Murcia...) and in the rest of the Peninsula. Actually, Portugal is pretty much in the same conditions being both Spanish and Portuguese languages completely derivated from Latin.



But, if we are also to belive that Tartessos stood as an influence in the Peninsula even after its downfall, my screen name can be perfectly derivated from them. A hipothesis is that Statulos is derivated from Sulo, which is alledgenly the god of the blacksmiths and forges; a somehow equivalent to the gallic Sucellos.

I remember crying when my elder brother got over his favourite stuffed toy and asked me too look after it for him. Couple years later i abandoned mine just as quick.

I can draw. Sort of. There's some stuff in my albums.

My internet speed is of the godly caliber, at 0.35 mb/s.

I have a friend who believes that dinosaur bones were planted in the ground by Satan.

I had several offers to give my plushies to relatives. The answer is always no. Especially for the vulture I have back home.

Your friend is right: Satan does all kinds of awesome things.

Dude, were you really considering doing that? Like the other's said, 17 is old enough in the US, and i am far from being the youngest one on here, I know that for a fact...To do that would just be...ah, I dont know man. But talk about a wet blanket...

Sorry in advance if you were just kidding, but....

If it's any consolation, I'm younger, dumber, and far less mature!

The universe is contolled by an extremely advanced race that goes around creating worlds and populating them. They always fill these worlds up with fake little historical things for historians and archaeologists to find so that worlds population will think that the world has been there for millenia and has a long history when it is only 4000 years old.

The young ones have a habit of messing around on big projects, putting in signatures and the like.(Alot like sneaky devs putting in easter eggs) often while they are putting in the fossils. Which leads to people finding fossilised dinosaurs found with watches.

I had my stuffed animals on my bed until I was about 15 when mum started back at work and got a cleaner who put them all on the top shelf in my cupboard. It was a good transition, I no longer have stuffed animals on my bed, but they're still in plain sight.

My favourite toy was a big-bird that I've had since I was about two.

And speaking of age limits, in Aus, MA15+ is currently the highest rating a game can receive. There's a big push atm in the gaming community for there to be an R18+ rating, as the amount of crap that gets through as MA15+ and shouldn't, plus the number of games that are Refused classification is a bit ridiculous.
