Everyone welcome Goblindegook, won't you?

12-17-2004, 06:17 PM

For those who don't know, Goblindegook is the editor of www.fantasticmetropolis.com and it's companion paper publication that enjoys Mike's participation and influence. I happen to know that Goblin AKA Luأs Rodrigues has copies of BREAKING WINDOWS on hand. I also happen to know he's pure genius in multiple languages, human and computer. Multiverse.org continues to manage (as best I can) to keep Fantastic Metropolis's ISP needs satisfied. While his site has enjoyed hacking community, it was at the mercy of multiverse.org's ISP woes.

I just noticed he registered. Finals must be over. :lol:

EDIT: hacking community should be hacking immunity.

The cat spread its wings and flew high into the air, hovering to keep pace with them as they moved cautiously toward the city. Then, as they climbed over the rubble of what had once been a gateway and began to make their way through piles of weed-grown masonry, the cat flew to the squat building with the yellow dome upon its roof. It flew twice around the dome and then came back to settle on Jhary's shoulder. - The King of the Swords

I would love to say hello, I am just not sure which way would be best. Should I go over to fantasticmetropolis as I am not sure how often he visits here (seems like he's a busy guy).

Maybe I'll look at FM again and say hello.

When they had advanced together to meet on common
ground, then there was the clash of shields, of spears
and the fury of men cased in bronze; bossed shields met
each other and the din rose loud. Then there were
mingled the groaning and the crowing of men killed and
killing, and the ground ran with blood.

Thanks for the kind, if hyperbolic, introduction, Berry! Alas, finals are not over. In fact, I have a test in 90 minutes . . . Still, I won't forget to visit occasionally for a chat.

Cheers,

[Dee is about to welcome Goblindegook when he becomes distracted by the link... "Ooh, an Alan Moore piece about Jerry!"... Focus, man focus!!]

Hello, and welcome to MWM... although I can see why you might be too busy to visit regularly. That's a great site you've got going there... I feel quite ashamed I hadn't visted it before now.

Hi there. Looks like an excellent site.

Thanks, everybody! If you haven't visited Fantastic Metropolis in the last 24 hours, there's a little holiday surprise waiting for you there: I have redesigned the whole site with a new backend (based on WordPress) and will be uploading fresh content tonight.

Cheers,

Goblin,

I just visited your new site and I am very impressed. Great style. That's not to say the old site was hard on the eyes, but I feel this revamp really revitalises your site. Great work!

Hi there Goblindegook. Have a bagel.

Yuki says, "Krimson used to be known as Kommando, but he rarely uses that name anymore. Sometimes he appears as Krimson Gray as well. Do not be confused, he still loves cats and bagels."
