Hello, Steve!  Welcome to Fawlty Towers!  Not really, I just like John Cleese.  My name is Gollum.  I almost wrote my name is Gikky.  That didn't work.  I read, write, read, swim, read, Nerdfight, read, play the viola, read, play the guitar, read, play the double and electric basses (but not at the same time), and read.  I also read.  I forgot.  I read.  Plus some reading here and there.

Welcome to the Chatterbox Steve! 

Steve! Our third boy! Now the male population is greater than that of the people-who-can't-make-up-their-minds-on-what-gender-they-are population! Ha! Take that! 

I don't play minecraft, but some of my friends do. One of them made a minecraft block out of yarn! (She crochets.) I think it's a grass block. I think. It's green on the top but the rest of it is brown. 

Do you play Pokemon? Practically no one here does, which is a real shame. 

The Chatterbox is a fun place. We write stories together. That's called an RP or an RR. In an RP, everyone makes different characters and takes turns writing a new part of the story. For example:

Person 1 writes: Amanda walked down the street and was looking up at the sky so she didn't notice the bannana peel until she slipped on it and fell.

Person 2 writes: Bob watched horrified as the girl fell on the bannana peel. It was his first day at Clown Camp and he was supposed to place a bannana peel for his mentor Charlie to fall on. But this random girl had fallen on it instead!

Person 3 writes maybe from the point of view of Charlie or maybe from the point of view of Dominic, another kid at Clown Camp, or any other character. The story goes around from person to person.

In a RR, one person starts off the story with one character and everyone uses the same character. Like this:

Person 1 writes: Amanda walked down the street and was looking up at the sky so she didn't notice the bannana peel until she slipped on it and fell.

Person 2 writes: "Ow! What was that?" Amanda griped. She noticed a young boy running towards her. "Sorry," the boy said as he helped her up. "I didn't mean for you to fall on the bannana peel. It was for my mentor Charlie. I'm at Clown Camp. My name's Bob."

Person 3 writes: "Clown camp? That's ridiculous!" scoffed Amanda.

etc., etc. You get the idea.

We also play games called SIs. And SI is where people pretend to be other people or things, often book or movie characters. Such as this:

Person 1 writes: I'm the Queen of Hearts! Off with your head!

Person 2 writes: I'm Harry Potter! I have to go, Ron and I have a potion boiling!

And then you have to guess who people are. Like this:

Person 3 writes: Is Harry Potter Person 5?

Person 2 writes: No, I'm not Person 5!

Person 1 writes: Is Harry Potter Person 2?  

Person 2 writes: Yes, I am Person 2!

Except we use real names instead of "person 1" and "person 2", but you get the idea. I think.

Anyway, welcome to the Chatterbox. 

My captcha (that's the thingy at the bottom of the post that asks whether you're human or not) says tdop. That reminds me, whenever people want a thread to go to the top of a page, they say "top" "poke" or "goop". 

Hullo Stevie, and welcome to the CB. What else do you do besides play minecraft?
