Umm... wouldn't that be Anette Brooks? The one who works at Shrapnel? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

You make it sound like a bad thing for a woman to be on this forum board. We also had a Katchoo here for awhile, but I haven't seen her (I'm assuming it was a female, because there's a comic book female characer by that name) on the SE board for awhile. Last I saw her was on the Dominion 2 board. I wouldn't mind a little more estrogen on this forum.

Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
I don't think Katchoo is a female...

Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
And there was a Cherry (something or other).

There used to be a lady that stopped by the cantina, but she quickly got tired of the antics. cant imagine why, though she said that she still lurked. that was a while ago.
There was also another lady that occasionally posted questions about multiplayer games she was playing. A long time back, we had an active female player on PBW. At least, one that I had gamed with. There may be more. And back a couple years ago, one of the regulars mentioned that his mother (in her 70s or 80s, if I remember) played SE4 and lurked on this board. |

we do occasionally get them here.
and besides, everyone here who's name is indeterminate for determining male or female could be female. since that includes my name, it might be best to state that i'm male, since my name is nothing more than gibberish a cartoon character likes with a BOOM at the end. |
Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
We used to have a poll about how many female members we have.
It is here: http://www.shrapnelgames.com/cgi-bin...3;t=007635;p=7 The Last results were: Quote:

"But if you didn't have more urgent things to do after supper, you could write a letter, loaf, gossip, discuss the myriad mental and moral shortcomings of sergeants and, dearest of all, talk about the female of the species (we became convinced that there were no such creatures, just mythology created by inflamed imaginations - one boy in our company claimed to have seen a girl over at regimental headquarters; he was unambiguously judged a liar and a braggart)."

Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
some gaming news places have had Posts, mostly from women, dealing with this, basically, the problem is 14-year old libidoes(uh, if i spelt it wrong, i mean sexual drive) regardless of the actual age. or in other words, more of them might reveal themselves if they didn't get slobbered over. or, put more plainly, they play games to play games, not to find dates, most of them. although most of the complaints listed were from a relativly few trouble-makers.

Like I said, the only other name I've seen belongs to a character in the Strangers in Paradise comics. Good comic book; it's the closest to a soap opera I've read. |
Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
Wardad and General Woundwort, I am surprised at you. There is no reason why I could not be a girl, and actually, I think I should defend my right to be a girl if I want.

Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
Yeah, SiP was really very good to start with, but after a while the author tried to retrofit loads of plot into a character driven comic and it started to get really silly. Suddenly everyone has known one another for ten years longer than they thought they had, and is a member of some elite underworld organisation or something stupid... Didn't enjoy it after that. I've seen the same thing happen with innumerable webcomics.
They start off as really enjoyable little comic strips, drifting along merrily with a few gags and some slow-but-steady character building, then suddenly the author gets a frenzied urge to reverse-engineer some huge epic backstory and complex plot and the whole thing goes to hell. GPF springs to mind. Exploitation Now was another prime example and (to a certain extent) Kevin and Kell, although I have more serious criticisms about that strip which I really can't be bothered with here. 1/0 did it and actually made the transition from frivolous to serious very well, but then it never tried to introduce backstory- it just (very self-consciously) introduced a bit of plot and meaning. Incedentally, my brother and his wife have a (female) rabbit named Katchoo. *dogscoff finally stops talking, then happens to look over at GT, who is sporting a sequin-covered red evening gown, size twelve 5-inch heels, full make up (including a thick layer of foundation over his unshaven face), huge false eyelashes and a feather boa. dogscoff runs from the room, screaming and gibbering and waving his arms in the air, his fragile mind warped forever. Well, until he can find a bar anyway. |
Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
Dogscoff, please credit me with better taste than that. I am wearing a particularily well tailored blue trouser suit, with fine white pinstripes, a white blouse, and a rather nice pair of Russell and Bromley's finest court shoes.
Only the sort of girls you probably hang around wear lycra mini-skirts, leopard skin pattern tight tops and fishnets. |

Growttigette,
Hmm, nice ring to it. Maybe this is a delayed reaction to something that happend in one of the pubs. |

You never know, I might be a girl.

GT, You never acted like this:
I'm An Emotional Idiot I'm an Emotional Idiot so get away from me. I mean, COME HERE. Wait, no, that's too close, give me some space it's a big country, there's plenty of room, don't sit so close to me. Hey, where are you? I haven't seen you in days. Whadya, having an affair? Who is she? Come on, aren't I enough for you? God, You're so cold. I never know what you're thinking. You're not very affectionate. I mean, you're clinging to me, DON'T TOUCH ME, what am I, your ****ing cat? Don't rub me like that. Don't you have anything better to do than sit there fawning over me? Don't you have any interests? Hobbies? Sailing Fly fishing Archeology? There's an archeology expedition leaving tomorrow why don't you go? I'll loan you the money, my money is your money. my life is your life my soul is yours without you I'm nothing. Move in with me we'll get a studio apartment together, save on rent, well, wait, I mean, a one bedroom, so we don't get in each other's hair or anything or, well, maybe a two bedroom I'll have my own bedroom, it's nothing personal I just need to be alone sometimes, you do understand, don't you? Hey, why are you acting distant? Where you goin', was it something I said? What What did I do? I'm an emotional idiot so get away from me I mean, MARRY ME. © Maggie Estep BTW: The MP3 is hilarious, but I can't find a link. |

Okay. As an engineer I propose a test.

Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
Guys, it's threads like this that keep women away. Think about it.
I vote this thread be deleted so that there will remain a chance for women to come here and share their thoughts. Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif |

Ducks back out of the thread before catching something nasty |
Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
I have nothing to contribute to this conversation, but I must complement the participants on the great degree of their bizaar behavior.
Especially Karibu. Now that's thinking outside the box. |
Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
Growltigga ducks out of sight for a second, and returns with a rather large croquet mallet.
"I dont mind kissing chaps on this forum, but surely I dont have to kiss a Fin". Anyhow, if he is going to think outside the box, I am going to use this mallet to make sure he needs a box to keep his tackle in. |

No way, I don't believe for a minute that Growltigga is a girl! He's been sounding just like a guy for the past couple of years. Besides, he only said he MIGHT be a girl.

President Elect Shang, don't be so rude. It's not very nice to kick others on the 'nuts. Taz, I know. There is always some risk when a moose or elk tries to kiss tigers. However, I like some excitement in my life (despite the possibility that my hobby may bring less pleasant end to my existence one day) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif I'm not sure what means to "think outside of the box", but I take it as compliment. *mm...* is there other women to be kissed, yes? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Look out! a girlie in our midst (Anette is listed as recent visitor!)
Well, I guess that will be something for you lot to guess and for me to know. Am I a girl? or am I just a tiger that likes to cross dress?
Either way, I am not kissing the Fin, hairballs tend to cause so much discomfort for a feline |
