About Me

In real life, I'm a 53 year old divorced father with two teenage sons. I live near Seattle, WA USA where I work as a communications and network engineer. My youngest son (16) plays ATITD with me. My oldest son (18) is an avid gamer, but he hates the grind of MMORPG's and refuses to join us. :(

I've heard there may have been someone named Nostromo in Tale 1, but if that's true it wasn't me. In Tale 2, I took over as the 'real' Nostromo and lived in Valley of the Kings (VoK) where I lead a guild called The Desert Monkeys. I was in the game quite a while but eventually burned out and quit. Nostromo came back for the beginning of Tale 3 and I lived in Khartoum for a while but real life issues (i.e. divorce) sapped my interest and I decided to bag it after several months.

And now I'm back for Tale 4. We'll see how it goes this time around.

BTW, Nostromo is the main character in my favorite Joseph Conrad novel of the same name. It is also the name of the ship in Alien, which was actually an homage to the Conrad novel.
