Can I just say that Vizzed is one helluva awesome resource?  You've got a thriving community, social media likeability, rewarding incentive programs, content and articles that are helpful and current, constant upgrades, member donations, and the most enjoyable video games in the world for free on the Internet at the tip of our fingertips!  Incredible job everyone!  You get my respect and admiration for achieving something I never even dreamed could be done.

A little about myself.  I'll be short and sweet.

RPG's are my PCP's, my video game drug of choice.  Favorites include Ogre Battle, Tales of Symphonia, Dragon Warrior series, Final Fantasy series, and Lufia series.  When I was a kid, I used to rent Ogre Battle from Hollywood Video religiously because I couldn't buy it anywhere, and then I would go nuts when I discovered that some moron rented it and randomly deleted my 20+ level save file along with all my other back-ups!  Oh well, just an excuse to start over and pull the tarot cards again to build a new hero, and maybe try out the evil path this time around.  To this day I have never made it to the end of this game, but thanks to Vizzed, I think that will change.  

I am also highly competitive in strategy games.  What I lack in dexterity, I make up for in cunning cruelty.  Games like Advance Wars I enjoy such reverse tactics as surrounding my foe's expensive units with floods of cheap infantry hell bent on colonization and impeding my opponent's ability to utilize their factories.  My old addiction has returned once again to Kirby's Avalanche like a long lost lover, and I am determined to go all the way with this invigorating time waster again and again.

Looking forward to trying out some of the competitive aspects that may become available.  The real fun for me is simply being in the mix of the battle.  Winning is boring.  And let's get real, losing isn't really such a bad deal so long as there is a continue screen offering another opportunity to play again.  In the past, the beautiful continue screen, and lack of a save feature helped me get out of doing and getting to bed when my parents told me I needed to stop soon, and it still keeps me from doing responsible activities to this day.   Amen!

Can't wait to see what else this site has to offer.  Hope to make lots of buddies here to message with, game with, and smooch for a little extra Viz on the side.

The site is constantly updating with new features, I've witnessed the various new stuff since I joined here. Plus we have a lot more stuff and games lined up!

Well, for competitive aspects we currently have for the board a monthly VCS and every 3 months a Tour de Vizzed, and for the RGR we have monthly competitions for either a high score for a game or various screenshot competitions.

Stick around bro, there can be a lot of fun times here, or time-killers here lol.

I do not want to at all sound like I have a "holier-than-thou" attitude, nor am I a staff member here, I am just saying this out of personal concern for the younger members. Please exercise some caution with any language you use.

Okay, with that out of the way, it is great to have you join us. tRIUNE has already mentioned the most common competitions we have --with the exception of the Tour de Vizzed, first time we ever held it was just last month. Beyond those we have a few forum role-plays if that interests you, and there are a couple other things you could find in several rented forums at the bottom of the main page of Vizzed. If you need any help understanding something about the Vizzed Board, feel free to send me a private message.

Hello Cirondel, nice to meet you and welcome to Vizzed Board.

As I can see, you enjoy challenges, oh that's a good thing. Yes, we have that kind of stuff on Vizzed Board and more because Vizzed Board is a paradise

Enjoy your stay here, have fun and feel free to ask if you have any questions

First, I gotta say that was a nice informative introduction. I can't say I have any questions right now because of it . Anyway, I hope that you plan on competing in the monthly Retro Game Room competitions. Sometimes, they really need more participants. I try to make sure I participate in at least one every month. I always have fun. Anyway, if you have any questions or issues regarding either the Retro Game Room or the board, feel free to ask. Have fun!

Not sure which words you felt were a bit overcharged Autoblaze.  40 years ago my mother used to tell me the H word used to be a big no-no, and I suppose maybe in some parts of the world it still is.  Don't worry though.  I'm known for my patience with people of all walks of life, and even if people do manage to push me to my brink, I keep things pretty clean.  If somebody pushes me so far that they actually deserve a good kick in the pants, in most cases I will let their own words speak for themselves to further shed light on their character.  If necessary, I will more likely resort to more creatively cut-throat language than the dull vulgar words or pointless violent/potty words.

Anyways, thanks for the kinds welcome everyone.

Eh, it was really just what you said in the first few sentences; not that many (I hope none) would understand what you meant by it, but I'm just slightly paranoid that a 9-year-old or so would see this and ask his or her parents about such "new words."

Meh, it was kinda 'mature' for some of the age-group here, but I overlooked it

anyway, post has been been edited =P

Awesome is awesome! Cool Ha Ha Ha Ha!
