About Me[edit]

I am a fairly recent fan of Star Control. I got into it during September of 2002¹, when I found ROM of SC1 for Genesis (shhh). I considered it to be one of the best games I'd played for that platform, though I have been unsuccessful at locating a real cartridge. For that matter, I also need to get my Genesis fixed.

Anyway, I was surfing the net one day for more information on star control and I kept seeing references to Star Control 2. "So what," I thought to myself, "it looks like there are just a couple of new ships." How wrong I was! A year later I wound up at the Ur-Quan Masters website, and started downloading what was to become my favorite game of all time.

I've always wanted to find a way to contribute to the UQM project, but since my programming skills are rudimentary at best, I couldn't think of a way to help out. The opportunity arose with the creation of the Ultronomicon, and I decided that I would do my part for UQM by contributing to its wiki.

I go by Halleck on the UQM and TW forums. I also signed on as a dialogue writer for the TimeWarp: Legacies project, which seems to be getting back on its feet again after a long period of inactivity.

Wiki Self-appraisal[edit]

My spelling is a bit lacking. I have a decent grasp of Wiki Markup. I'd say I have a fair command of the English language, and on a few rare occasions I may even have a creative flair². I can now spell M-m-r-n-m-h-r-m thanks to My Moron May Harm (see my Talk Page).

Since their next game (Madagascar) is about animals, and even penguins I hear, Erol may get his piscine fantasies fufilled after all.

Other nonsense[edit]

You can see a couple of my favorite Star Control quotes at User:Fadookie/Quotes.

Here's a good place to plug Vega Strike, a cool GPL space game.


¹Coincidentally, about a month after the UQM project started.
²Guaranteed to occur on some part of the Ultronomicon, at some point in the future.
