Hehe, really? I was in WiNA praesidium two years ago and last year I was in Bacchus' praesidium. Glad to see more frat-people on the scene. ;3

Welcome Lims! *gives cookies*

[grafunkel]

Welcome to all the new people!

I'm Art Grafunkel. Not my real name, but it should suffice for now.

I'm a professional graphic designer, and I do some illustration as well, here and there. Mostly here.

I've been a comicbook fan for ages, and knew about "That Con In Ghent" for a long time, but only visited it for the first time in 2005. And I was hooked. Since then I've become a regular on this board, I even helped the F.A.C.T.S. crew get in touch with some comic creators, which is neato. ;D The F.A.C.T.S.-meisters and I also launched N.U.R.D., which gives regular boardmembers the opportunity to recognise eachother and meet up at the con.

(And my nose is bleeding, dammit.)

And, that's about it I guess.

Oh, also: this edition of F.A.C.T.S. will rock.

Hi everyone!

My name's Freya, and I live near Oostkamp in Belgium. I went to Facts last year with a friend and had a great time, but I would love to meet some others with the same interests (most of my friends aren't as geeky as me lol). I love manga and anime (I have favourites in all genres), and comic books in general. My other hobbies are reading and karate. I've never cosplayed before and I'd like to try it but I'm too much of a chicken lmao.

Nice to meet y'all!

[Strawberry Nipples]

Hi there. Yesterday was my third year at F.A.C.T.S., and i thought it would be time to make an account here. :3

My name is Brian (though call me Nipples , if you like. ), and i'm 17. I like drawing cartoony stuff and make the occasional sprite comics. (http://dragonflame218.deviantart.com, when interested. =D)

My biggest nerd moments are for... Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Mortal Kombat, retro gaming in general really... Old horror movies, and i like to nerd out on people from TGWTG.com >-<

I am an anime fan, and have watched a considerate amount of it. But i'm not a pro about it... Yet. :3

That's pretty much it. If yoo haz teh kweshiuns, dun hezitate to askz!

[kira]

Hi all, name is Christoph. Been lurking on the boards ever since the beginning of facts, but the growin up changed the shyness into the will of cosplaying. So my kids started to do it as well.
Currently japanese language student @ ughent and member of TomonoKai.
Big anime and gundam fan.
Also comics-fan. You should see my room- or no, you shouldn't. Forget i said this, i didn't say anything. It's mine, mine i tell ya!
Here's a pic with my son and daughter cosplayin lambo and i-pin from kateikyo hitman reborn
Beware, the Hulk is my friend!

[lamaskippy]

Hi Everyone,

My name is Floris and I live in Beerse (close to turnhout, Belgium) I'm 30 years old and I've never been at Facts before, but my brother told me about it. He said it was awesome and that I had to check out the website. So that's how I got here.

I work as a sandfill supervisor for Jan de Nul (dredging company) and I work abroad. 6weeks on/6 weeks off.
My hobbies are gaming (I used to be a real wow addict), I play the ukelele (beginner) I'm a real party animal. I love a wide variety of music, but to go out it has to be real hard with a lot of bass, like hardstyle and hardcore. I like to pimp my car, and whenever i get bored I go for a ride. And I love to spend time with my son. I don't see him a lot because of my job, and because I'm divorced, so when I see him, I try to make the best of it.

When I was little I loved watching dragonball Z, but after they stopped showing it on tv it got a bit out of my mind. I like comic books and fantasy books like Siegfried. I also like the warhammer stories. And also the atmosphere about the whole fantasy culture

What suprises me a bit is that there are also a lot of girls into facts. I always thought that it was a bit of a boy thing, but apparently I was wrong :-) I also noticed while reading through the introductions that a lot of the people here have a bit of an artistic/creative mind. Really nice!

One thing is for sure: i really regret that I missed Facts this year, and I hope i can make it next year. I bet my son will love it too!

[cursedangel]

Hi, just a quick 'Who am I', I'm Peter, 28, living in Rotterdam. I visisted FACTS a few years back for a day and went for a full weekend for the 20th edition. I love comics and tv series so the main reason for me visiting FACTS is meeting actors and artists, and of course, buy comics.

[hadesgod1]

Welcome on (the) board ^^ and our destination would be : FUNLAND ;D

[drunkwookie]

Hi Everybody.
I'm Philip, 27 years old and one off the FACTS-volunteers.
I'm already doing this for four years and i never had any regrets on doing this, I'm a real facts addict. I like animé, horror and comics. I'm also a filmgeek like people tend to call me.

[cartoonjessie]

Noooo your link is broken! Now how am I supposed to know who you are? XD I'm very bad with names.

[kaydra]

Haaaaai,
I'm Sofie, Fie for short. I'm currently 25 (26 in december) and from Antwerp (Berchem). I work fulltime and after that I spend most of my time gaming. I live together with my boyfriend Johan, who I met in World of Warcraft (while chasing the same horde-player called Zwanworstje).

We heared of FACTS the first time from a friend.
"Hey there's this anime/manga/scifi convention, wanna go?" naah...not interested
"hey not changed your mind?" nope
"hey facts is this weekend still don't wanna go?" noooooooooo

I'm bored...hey wasn't it that anime thing today? Got nothing else to do, shall we go take a look?

*later that afternoon*
OMG!!!! cosplayers!! OMG!! I wanna cosplay too! OMG!! This is so awesoooooome! OMG!! Look at that!!!! OMG PLUSHIES!!! OMG Can I take your picture? And yours? And yours? OMG Why didn't we come yesterday too!

or something like that... And we've been going ever since (4 years and counting)

For those interested to see me without a cosplay:

[Lelana]

Aloha ^^

What is it with world of warcraft and matchmaking xD
My boyfriend wasn't interested until I told him I played wow lol.

Anyway, can't wait to see some more cosplays from you your Aeris was gorgeous.

[RR Comics]

Hi everyone. I am Rodney, I have Asian roots, 30 years and I'm from Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
This year I'm very busy with writing fantastic comics, that I want to publish next year by my own. I'm also an editor for a Dutch comics-site.
I always was a Marvel fan, reading X-Men, Spider-Man from 1989 until 2006. At the moment I am only collecting TPB, but my interest has changed from Marvel, to DC/Vertigo.
A few years ago I was a fan of the computer-games Final Fantasy VII and the Streetfighter series.
The best movies adapted from comics, in my opinion are Sin City, Watchmen, Constantine, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, the X-men quadrilogy and the Spider-Man trilogy.

[idromy]

to everyone i haven't greeted yet goodday ^^ or evening or morning!
I'm a cosplayer/nerd/nutcase ( this year a minotaur and necromancer)
And i welcome all other poeple who have enough taste to enjoy conventions like this ^^
