Hi Neone and Yoshi.

Note our off-topic forums with some refs to interests in the Southern hemis. Please check and leave your suggestions. The Northern half is having a headache :shame: and needs all the help we can get.

Glad to see the other half still wants to talk DOS. You may find some others like GAMER and Checkmate worthy adversaries.

Is that "floozix" or "flowzix" for your handle pronounciation? Can we lovingly abreiv it to Flix? :D

My namesake is actually rather easy to pronounce. Think of dental floss, but instead of the "ss", it is just "z". FLoz.
If you wanna call me FLix or FLoz, take your pick. However, it might take a decent amount of time for "FLix" to sink into my brain- and actually stay there.
And the 6 is just added on for... um... good measure. Yes.

Actually, yes. Many years ago when I was in 7th grade I needed a "code name" and so I was in the shower and *walah!* there it was on the back of the shampoo bottle.
So wonderfully creative, huh?

*ahem*Let me get this out of my system. DUDE! YOU FREAKING ROCK! TYRIAN IS THE BEST GAME EVER! Join the fan club.

There, now on to the post...

Past six years? Not trying to burst your bubble, but Epic sold Tyrian until mid-2000. If you really wanted, you could've just gone to their website and ordered it...

Anyhow, welcome to the forum! I hope you stick around and enjoy your time here. :)

The enormous about of people here that hail from Ontario is a bit scary, acutally. And it can't just be explained away by Ontario's large population. By that logic, there should also be a huge amount of people from New York, California, Texas, Philadelphia, Georgia, Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Illinois, Indiana, etc should have the same or greater representation. A conspiracy? :shifty:
