Title: Early
Post by: Early on February 18, 2009, 04:00:32 AM
Hello.  My name is Early.  I'm 24.  I found my first Animorphs book when I was 12 and then the series kept going until I was old enough to start hiding the books.  I have the complete collection including alternamorphs.

I found out about this site by listening to the podcasts on youtube.   

I have and always will hate Harry Potter, because I believe they stole a large potential fanbase for Animorphs.  Why couldn't they have taken an interest in reading just one year earlier?

Since I'm new I have alot of sifting to do, so my strategy will be to stalk the "who's online" option to see what everyone else is checking out.

Hey Early! lemme be the first one to welcome you to RAF!

i'll take the honours of saying Dameg's speech!

- The Ebooks project: Animorphs (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=14.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=14.0)), Remnants (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,157.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,157.0.html)) and Everworld (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,331.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,331.0.html)); we just miss Everworld #10 now, but the other ebooks need to be cleaned a little (mistakes, we don't know where the chapters begin and finish, etc.) so if you wanna be a beta-reader/correcter... Oh, about the Remnants and Everworld ebooks, ask me the keys if you wanna read them;

- RAFipedia: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=22.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=22.0), an encyclopedia headed up by Estelore, our star (a true star, who make light and burn in space... but she has a body to come on Earth);

- the Audiobooks project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=15.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=15.0), a full-cast audio version of Animorphs who need more "actors" and voices, headed by MrGuy, Morfowt and Wildweathel;

- the Translation project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1907.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1907.0.html), a recently started project/mutual support group for translations into other languages; currently only in French (Tocade, Anidragon and myself), Chinese (Morfowt), Indonesian (Nat), Swedish (Mira and Zana), and Esperanto (Wildweathel); we translate only the volumes never edited in our countries/languages, to make the ebooks;

- the Graphic Novel project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,416.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,416.0.html) and http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2276.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2276.0.html), a Webcomic headed by Gafrash.

- the RPG project: a role-playing game (on table, with paper, pen and dices...) about the World of Animorphs; I head this project, and it'll be write in French at the beginning, but we need help to find, class and write everything we know about the species, the planets, the powers we see in Animorphs, fix them, see what we keep and what we can't keep (because of the KASU, not clear, exception for the main characters/books, etc.), complete the knowledges about species/planets we know and even create new species/planets...; this project will be on my own website, so if you wanna join, ask me the link ^^ ;

- the Smiley project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1691.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1691.0.html), we make Animated gifs, smileys about Animorphs (Andalites, Hork-Bajirs...).

You can take a look, or participate if you want.

You'll soon see that many RAFians aren't Humans. In fact, the majority isn't Human. So please add your own species here: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html)


(i quoted all that directly from another post, btw)

oh, and enjoy your sanity while it lasts!

A dinosaur walks by and says, <Hello!  Welcome to RAF, Early.  Hmm, is Early your real name, or are you just a morning person?  My name is DinosaurNothlit, but you can call me Dino, DN, or Nothlit if you prefer.>

Yes, but I don't want to swing it around like my job makes me cool.  My job is dangerous, but very easy.  I get to be in parades and mostly just drive my truck, smoke lots of cigarettes and play on the internet in my downtime.

Hello Early!

I see Cloaky hasn't come yet to knock over and break any valuables you may have and Horsie hasn't taken your sanity.  They will come soon enough.

In the meantime, welcome!

Welcome to RAF, Mister Early. I am Estelore. *formal bow*

Right, well, enough with the pleasantries. Call me Este, if you like. I'm a star, as in the large nuclear sphere way out in space. Right now, I'm having some fun playing human-ish, chilling in CAD class, stuff like that.
It's a pleasure to meet you, and I'm sure that you'll absolutely love it here in RAF. :)

By the by, you might want one of these: :bluebox: .
Be careful. It'll give you quite a shock if you handle it wrong. :P
*sizzle-pop!* OUCH!!!

Hi!  Yes, I'm a seal, yes I just leaped out of a puddle much to small to have me in it, yes I'm magical, and no you cannot make a hat out of me.  I'm gonna need your sanity if you still have it.  You'll lose it eventually and we don't want-*sees sanity on floor* any sanities left on the floor...

Hiya, Early!
I'm a bit new still to this introduction bit, so forgive me for not having a routine...

i did however say i was going to do this, in the next introduction thread i came to *steps behind chinese folding curtain, and wrestles around alot* as you can *grunt* see, we are all *grunt* pretty crazy here on R.A*grunt*.F *steps out from behhind curtain  dressed like Dr Frank-N-Furter* We are, however, fairly close-knit as well*brandishes blade* don't be messing with one of ours!!!! or you'll be a :taxxon: snack!

but other than that, have fun on RAF it really is quite awesome, in every single way a forum can be!
there is really nothing not awesome about it... although some would say certain leakage *glares at Anna* takes away from the fun... :p
