Nik: Luv the new baby gif pic... hehe... so cute!Ã,  ;DÃ,  You da man!

Vince: Wow! Such a sweet family there. Youse one lucky dude!

Yutz: Hmmm, imma unda yer speel.. yer wish isa my command. What's that? Vote for you as bestest--looking AGSer...Ã,  ;)Ã, 

Well, thought I'd post up a recent pic too. Here's from a JuJitsu seminar I taught at a High-School here in Hong Kong.Ã,  I'm the big-guy wearing a black-belt towards the middle in the back row.Ã,  The tall guy next to me was one of the teachers at the school who was my "demonstration "victim" / volunteer" for the day, plus he helped me to keep a watchful eye on the kids. And before ya ask about the kid in front wearing a black-belt, well, he should have been wearing a white-belt too, but, apperantly he takes Tae-Kwon-Do and that's his rank in that, and he convenientlyÃ,  "forgot" to wear a white-belt for the day (though somehow he remembered his black-belt). And of course the girls "forgot" to bring their Gi-tops.. (methinks they actually wanted to look all "purdy" for da guyz actuallyÃ,  ;) )But, oh well, no problems. We all had a lot of fun that day and I gave them a great work-out and they learned a few things about traditional Martial Arts.

*Shhhh* Quiet youse young whipper-snappers!  ;)
Ya don't want everyone thinking I'm some kinda 'old fart' or something, huh? (as I consider "sekritly" changing my "age" here).

Heheh.. Yeah, where does the time go. *Me thinks back to yonder years of when I played my first "Adventure Game" on the 'ol "Vic=20". 'Twas a text  game called "AdventureLand" by Scott Adams. Ahhh, things sure have come a looong way since then. *

Well guys, thanks for the kind wishes. But heck, even though I may be considered an "old man" to most around here, I'm still young at heart. And heck, I could probably kick most of your butts too if need be! Heheheh!  :=   
    Cheers!

PS: I'm still making good progress on my Adventure gaming projects.  Stay tuned.

Here's a somewhat recent picture of me standing by the roots of a ficus-tree someplace in Hong Kong.

and another pic of me when I was in the Philippines a couple months ago when I was practicing some Filipino Stick Fighting (Eskrima). I'm by a statue of Dr. Jose Rizal, a national hero of the Philippines in thier history.

Greetings everyone... I'm a newbie here to AGS and the forums.
Ã,  Ã,  My name is "Big" Don.Ã,  :)Ã, 
I choose "Barbarian" as my handle here as I'm a long-time fan of Robert E. Howards "Conan the Barbarian" character.
I'm currently 36 years old, I'm a Canadian, but currently I'm residing in Hong Kong.
Hobbies / Interests: Martial-Arts, computers & video-games, exercise, movies, reading, travel (when I can afford)...

I'm a long time computer-user (for about 22 years, I started back in the 'old Vic=20 / C=64 days) and am a big fan of Adventure Games, also with many years of RPG experience in my youth (Dungeons & Dragons kinda games).Ã, 

I used to program games waaay back on my 'ol Vic=20 & C-64 'puters, and using computers has been a big part of my life ever since. I currently do some web-programming/promoting and as well teach Jujitsu for means of income, but it looks like I may very soon be a published author if things works out like I hope .

Anyways, I found the wonderful AGS site and program a little over a month ago and have been becoming more familier with it everyday. I've been working a few hours each day with AGS, and my "first game" that I've been working on is really starting to shape up now.
You can see See more about my game in production, "Big Don's Adventure" ,over at:

Keep up the good work all you Adventure Gamers!
I see a lot of great talent out there.

*Salutes*
Best regards,
---- Big Don, the Barbarian.
