Hey all! I signed up here a few years ago, but disappeared. Recently rediscovered the site, and I'm glad to be back. Maybe after 2 years I'll finally become a 'La :D

Occupation: Student, and still looking for work.

How did you get into Tau?: First found them in Dark Crusade. Playstyle and philosophy appealed to me quite a bit. :)

What is your Tau colour scheme?: Traditional Tau Sept colors.

Welcome back! I find it quite funny that you have done almost the same as me in finding the site, registering, lurking then going away for a while only to come back and start posting. I too hope to gain 'La status :D

You said you moved recently and you have two locations on your post which way round did you move?

You've read The Stand? I love that book, the beginning was to me one of the scariest things he has written, because of how real it could be. I love Stephen King, as my name can show :P

I always thought of that whenever I saw your name, never realized it was intentional. :biggrin:

Haha, it was completely intentional, that is one of my favorite series. Read everyone at least twice, say true.
