Most of the time I don't shut down my computer, I hibernate it lol.
So I open PC only once every week or so, generally in the morning ^^ Do you hibernate your computer, or do you turn it off properly? |
Fold it shut. Only switch off if I’m actually going somewhere and leaving it, or it’s behaving badly. That or sometimes it’s battery drains overnight so it unlocks only to immediately blank and demand a charger. 10-year old computers yay!
If you’re employed, would your job me mostly categorised as manual labour, or a desk job? |
Right before work, sometimes during work and after work. You could say that when I'm not spending most of my time working, I spend most of my time checking if there's something interesting on PC. Gotta fill my meaningless life with something even if it is just some sporadic comment from someone I happen to know even though it's only digitally. ^^"
Favorite beverage? |
Lemonade
What's your least favorite food? |
I am allergic to avocado so any food with it is a big no. Apparenty a lot of Japanese restaurants put avocado in all their foods so I can't eat that!
Otherwise, I remember some Vietnamese dish called "Lok lak" and I didn't like it lol. And I remember a restaurant in India, I ordered some spicy fried rice, and there was a cockroach in the plate... So cockroach fried rice is my least favourite meal? :D Have you ever seen a tornado? Quote:
ReKoil, send out your wildest hug pictures! :coolcat: |
No, I haven't. They are not a common occurance in my country. I may have seen one on TV, though.
What's your favorite restaurant? |
There's several good ones not that far away, but I'll go with the local Chinese restaurant due to me pretty much always being able to just randomly order something and it always being yummy!
'pretty much always' due to me ordering a spicy dish once... and the waitress even asked 'are you sure? that's the spiciest dish we have.' and me just ordering it anyway.... I usually like spicy food, but this dish was way too much spicyness for me xD What's your favorite cake? Quote:
Spoiler:
|
Austrian pie!
Spoiler:
Rekoil, you forgot one! *Mareep uses Tackle!* Spoiler:
What is your favourite fruit ? |
It used to be apples but nowadays I don't know anymore. ^^"
I like watermelons and cherries, as well. Oranges are also ok. I'm probably one of the few people who actually don't get annoyed by peeling them. xD What's your favorite piece of clothing? |
During summer: shorts.
During winter: any warm piece of clothing =p Don't really know what else to mention here as I pay little attention to how I dress xD Though I could also go with Pajamas's because comfy as heck all year long.... Are there any movies you find yourself re-watching on a regular basis? |
Not really. I'd rather watch new things.
You have a Mew. What 4 TM's will you teach it? |
Probably just Explosion. I never really cared much for it. At least not in a way I would use it on a team. Last time I beat Blue I got a couple Mews on my party mostly for HM usage.
What direction do you want your life to go? |
Forward, one day at a time. Wouldn't want to pull a Benjamin Button...
I honestly have no real goals, so as long as things keep chugging along I'm pretty much fine as is lol Definitely wouldn't want to go backward though... because school. When you order something from an online shop, do you fill in those annoying surveys you get afterward? |
I always do, because I think that feedback is important. I also generally accept when some public service or my bank asks me if they can call me another day to respond to some questions about the service.
Do you often order food online? Quote:
Spoiler:
|
Not as often as I would tbh because I live in the middle of nowhere so nobody delivers here. I sometimes do if I'm already somewhere that I can go and pick it up.
Do you ever wish you were born in another country? |
Not really. I'd probably be a lot worse off in most of them.
Healthcare wise and as far as civil liberties and rights go, I'd be hard pressed to find a better country tbh. Not that it's flawless here, but still, it's better than in quite a lot of other countries sadly. Do you use platforms for videogames such as steam or uplay? |
I have a steam account that's very old and has a lot of games on it that I don't play. I originally got it because Skyrim forced it onto me, though. Most of the games I play nowadays are on my Switch or some sort of freeware you can find on the internet.
What's the most amount of time you spend playing one game? |
Probably League of Legends but I no longer play it, I don't know where to check that information and I don't want to talk about it.
Otherwise it's Dark Souls 3 (580+ hours). Do you get hyped by trailers for videogames / movies? |
I do tend to get suckered in by them yes! Even though I know I'm probably gonna be disappointed 😞
When was the last time you sunbathed? |
I never did and don't really want to. It's already enough to walk through these high temperatures, as is...
What's your favorite hobby? |
Pretending to be a human. 😉
gaming I guess, in terms of time invested and money spent at any rate. Do you leave reviews on games, music or movies you've played/listened/watched? |
Sometimes, very rarely. Personally, I try to live games in the best possible and objective way, which also includes how much they involve my emotions and feelings. I like giving my opinion on things, so yes sometimes I leave reviews, mainly on games. Music is too personal tbh and I am not a huge movie fan.
What's something that would really piss you off? |
Quote:
What would be your spy name? |
Agent G!
Would you join MI6 or Mission Impossible ? |
I'd join the Pokemon division of Mission Impossible. My specialty would be putting my targets on ice 😏
Kinda don't wanna join either though tbh. Do you regularly exercise? |
If you mean physical exercise, no I really don't. I am pretty lazy, but I walk as much as I can, especially when I have things to do. But no, I hate physical exercise lol. Ik it's not healthy, but I am not really worried about it.
What is your favorite song? |
I don't have one. I actually can't even come up with a song that I like right now. xD
What's your favorite season? |
Winter
Spring is nice too. Summer can go take a hike though. How many pairs of shoes do you have? |
I mainly use 3/4. One is white Adidas, then blue puma, then blue but more elegant. I also have a couple of pairs for when I go walking. They're comfortable.
Do you like technology? |
It's useful and allowed me to experience many things that I would have missed out on otherwise. I've spent way too much time with it, admittedly.
Not sure where I would be without it. Though, it would probably still not be in a good place judging from my current irl experiences. ^^" Do you think people spend too much time on their phone? |
I have a weird view on this and it may be bias from growing up in the 'smartphone' generation, but no. Phone's are basically entwined with people now and I don't have a problem seeing others glued. On the contrary, I think there are times phones should absolutely be put away, such as when driving or general situations that require awareness. I also find it rude pulling out a phone while someone is talking directly at you.
Would you prefer to live in an area that rains all the time or an area with permanent hot sun? |
Guess I'll go with the rain. I like neither option, but seems like the lesser evil.
Have you ever bought anything in a thrift store? |
Pre pandemic I used to look all the time! I like vintage stuff 😁
Can you roll your tongue? |
I guess? You mean the thing that supposedly only like half the population can do with their tongue, right?
Have you ever predicted the future correctly? |
I don't recall. I may by some sheer fluke have been correct at some point about something minor, but I don't remember =p
So I'll just assume not. Do you still write notes down physically on a piece of paper or do you type them on your computer or phone/etc. ? |
Paper. And then I lose the paper.
What is your current phone/computer volume set at? |
The computer I'm at now has it muted. It's my PC at work and I don't need random noises popping up.
Have you ever done a challenge? |
Yep, a monotype one and a random team one, both completed. I am currently doing some others, but yeah I need time lol.
I think I have already asked, but I don't remember. What's he most difficult game you have ever played? |
Super Meat Boy probably
I never completed it, but the question is just about having played it so... I definitely did. I got stuck in world 3 and just never picked it back up again xD What's your favorite type of enemy in video games? Like say, mummies, zombies, vampires, dragons etc. etc. |
I had never thought of it this way, because enemies are generally visually similar in every game, while their quality depend on the developer...
I'd say dragons in Skyrim, but mostly human bosses in Dark Souls 3 / Sekiro, because the fight becomes a rhythm game where you're dancing with the enemy... That's precisely what I love about souls games! But visually, I think I prefer "unusual monsters", those that you don't even know how to describe (just like any big boss in any Final Fantasy lol, some monsters of Bloodborne like Ebrietas). Do you often go to concerts? |
I've never visited a concert. It's one of the very many things I miss out by simply not being able to attend them. Not having friends doesn't help, either...
What's the longest walk you ever had? Quote:
|
Can't recall specifics, likely 6-8 hours.
Are you forgetful? |
You mean how often I forget to suggest a new name / question in the forum games ? ^^
Can you spend a whole day reading a book you love ? And continue next morning ? |
I've done that multiple times in the past, so yes.
Do you ever re-read any books you've already read before? |
Nope, I'd rather read new stuff.
What 4 moves would you teach a Manectric? |
I would check out on Smogon:
Manectric @ Manectite Ability: Lightning Rod EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Volt Switch - Overheat - Thunderbolt - Hidden Power Ice What do you look for in a Pokémon fangame? |
The exit button. Nah, I just don't play them anymore. They don't really give me anything I'm interested in. Like a fun exploratory environment and stuff.
How often do you replay the Pokemon games? |
I think I replay D/P/Pt almost once every year, lately. The rest, I'd say a game every two years maybe. I am playing Emerald twice this year too.
What was the best memory you own of the pokemon games? |
The best memory was finally beating Tate and Liza in Pokemon Emerald. The fight was extremely hard for me back then because I was underleveled and stuff. Also kept getting one shotted.
What was the hardest gym leader in any Pokemon game you have played? |
Some of them on occasion gave me some problems, due to my team not being the best to deal with them.
I always roll with a team of randoms that strike my fancy for that playthrough =p There aren't really any that persistently gave me problems. Flannery, Sabrina, Wattson, Tate & Liza have been problematic at least a couple times. Brawly comes to mind, but only once... What do you like most about PC ? |
The Forum Games community <3
Joined for the fangames, stayed for the forum games :) How many games have you bought on Steam but haven't played yet? |
None lol. I am not much if a computer player. If I have to play on computer, I get the game and then play it.
What's a game you're looking forward to playing? |
Xenoblade 3. I've already started it, but my poor attention span struggles with early game stuff. I'll be fine when it gets moving.
What shiny pokemon would you like to encounter? |
In the wild? Hm... not counting legendaries... maybe Dratini or Mimikyu? Not sure but those are pretty cool shinies :)
Do you use a straw when drinking soft drinks? |
Not really. I'll just drink stuff directly from the glass. But I'm not too much into soft drinks, anyway.
What's something in the near future that you're excited about? |
When I think about future, I am worried lol. Near future, i guess holiday with my parents. I am so looking forward to that, even if we haven't chosen a place yet and even if I could have some exams pretty near that time. I actually love holidays with my parents because we all love traveling and they're always super organized and full. There's always much time at the beach lol, so yeah. I love the beach ahah.
What's a place you would love to visit? |
Hmm...I'll go paranormal for this answer.
Gettysburg PA. What's your current battery at for the device your posting on? |
100%... it's a laptop but it's been plugged in this whole day~
Do you keep a journal / diary? Why or why not? |
I kinda do! I have a very old diary that is my real first one that I very rarely fill. It's more like an "update of my life" thing. I write like once every two years or even more. Actually, it started like a normal diary, but growing up I always had less to write, even if, ironically enough, I started having more and more things on my mind. I guess I came to a point where "having written it down on the diary" didn't solve the problem at all lol.
For a while, I also started writing daily on another diary, but I am lazy and inconstant, so, despite having promised myself to write every single day, even for just five minutes, I still stopped at some point. I am that kind of person, always been. The idea was to get a little something from everyday. Because in general days pass and I am like "it's always the same thing" and, I mean, I am also pretty much happy with routine, but, on the other hand, sometimes months pass and there's no interesting news or something. So, the idea was to write down the little things that made the day or assert the days that were actually just the same as the previous ones. As for now, I tend to write things on my phone, so sometimes that works as an inconstant diary as well, I guess. Sorry for having made it long. Do you have any pets? |

Spoiler:
I really need to take some more current photo's... all the ones I have are like 5-6 years old... Have you moved often over the years? |
Between 2016-2018, lived in 3 houses between those years.
How do you find inspiration when you can't think of a question? (...not that i can't think of a question right now or anything). |
I leave the tab open, go to other posts, and I generally watch Youtube in parallel, so I generally end up with a question ^^
Have you played Elden Ring? Why? |
No, because it's FromSoftware gameplay and I've experienced time and again that I do not enjoy their games.
How easily can you get up at morning or whenever you get out of bed? |
Pretty hard. I don't mind waking up early, I can do that, but the act of getting up from the bed is another thing lol. I spend too much time on my phone as soon as I wake up and if I am really not particularly keen to get up soon, I might stay a whole hour in bed watching stuff on the phone before actually getting up lol.
Do you own a car? |
Spoiler:
Yes, a Gardevoir can have a permit! Do you own an electric bicycle ? |
Only regular.
If you could enter any fictional universe, which one would you pick? |
Definitely the universe of World Trigger, I like the Earth But Not(tm) feel of it.
You've started a band and have to decide a genre, what genre is it? |
Classical. I am enjoying classical music a lot recently!
Do you have a lucky charm? |
1 Attachment(s)
Nope. Never really believed in them so never bothered.
Do you care about achievements in games? Quote:
Spoiler:

Quote:
About the image : LOL! Do you use cheat codes in games' solo modes ? |
Nope. Briefly looked at trying to exploit the void in DP, couldn't quite figure it out (I was 12 and reasonably computer-illiterate to be fair), but I've mostly stuck to 3 franchises: Assassin's Creed, Football Manager, and Pokémon - not a lot of cheat codes for those! (Although FM until about 2018 usually had a broken tactic each year and once or twice I've intentionally used it, does that count?)
Do you play any sports? If yes, which? If no, would you like to / do you do physical fitness in other forms? |
I am doing fitness with a bunch of resistance bands at home (from very light to very stiff), but I'd like to do some Strongman training and in particular atlas stone, but I'm too lazy to join an actual gym.
Have you already offered a videogame to your friends on Steam? |
I have gifted.
Do you consider yourself trustworthy? |
I think it's good when people make extra sure whom they trust. This especially counts for me. I'm not saying I'm not trustworthy. But I like to give as much transparency as possible so people can make sure if need be. I guess, that comes as a result of me not particularly trusting myself. Which is why I always advise people to be extra careful around me.
Do you have a nearby forest? |
Not sure on the differing definitions of 'forest' and 'wood' but I'll say yes - no matter which direction I look out of my house I can see trees!
Have you any active / retired military in your family? |
Not really a military family at all, although I have an uncle who served in Vietnam during that whole messy conflict.
What's your favorite kind of soup. |
Either Tomato soup or Goulash Soup.
Hard to pick between all the delicious variations of Tomato Soup and Goulash Soup as well. Do you ever make your own soup or do you buy canned soup? |
Nope, I tend to always make myself food. Sometimes it happens, but in general not at all. I don't really eat soups btw.
Do you have a favourite snack? |
Granny Smith apples, it's one of those fruits that you can eat anywhere because it doesn't require you to wash your hands after eating it.
How many email addresses do you own? |
4.
One is for school. One is for personal matters. One is inactive. One is my childhood email address which I use when a website requires email. What's the last thing you purchased? |
Something to eat. It's not worth talking about since it's just junk food.
Have you ever been in a relationship? |
Nope.
What was your first computer/console/handheld that you remember having? |
Nintendo Wii when I was 6 years old.
We had other consoles around the house though, but it's remarkable because I remember it being the first time my brain processed "new gaming console". What's a game you've played once and never replayed? |
Many of the more recent Pokemon games (Sword being an exception as I've played it twice). Some of the older Final Fantasy games (1 and 2 for example). Oblivion, Skyrim and a bunch of other games I don't remember.
Do you have applications for a "smart home", like different light switches that are connected to Alexa or any other of these "AIs"? |
Nope, I don't. I still live with my parents that don't like having too much technology around. I am a student, so when I am out of my home town, I live with other people and like, under rent is pretty weird other than useless to have those kinds of devices.
I am not a fan of these tho, because they're kinda useless after all, I am already lazy, so I am not looking for ways to be even more lol. Have you ever been to a casino? |
Once, but I didn't gamble there.
I stayed in the hotel it had for a night while I was touring the western US many years ago by now. What's your favorite holiday? |
Christmas. Mostly the month of December in general. I like the weather and the atmosphere is something I enjoy.
Would you willingly cut off a finger of choice for $20 million USD? |
Yes, I mean, you don't lose too much when you cut one finger (except the thumb). The trade is favour of the cut finger / 20 million USD.
You meet a cursed genie. He erases everything in your brain about your mother tongue, and English too, but offers to learn another language, that is not English nor your mother tongue. What language do you choose? |
Idk. French would be interesting, especially since France is also very nearby. Otherwise probably Spanish? Afaik it's the second most spoken language in the world.
How do you define freedom? |
Sounds a little simplistic, but I don't see it as much more than freedom of choice. Nothing is stopping me from taking the action of "I want to apply and work at a McDonalds because I feel like it". (just a silly little example).
What does the saying "less is more" mean? |
To use makeup as an example: accentuating your highlights/best points yields a better result than if you were to slather your entire face in it, like most people who use the junk do.
I usually just interpret it as quality over quantity =p Are there any TV-shows you'd like to participate in? |
Oh definitely the Eurovision Song Contest! I would love to be involved in that in some way!
Can you touch your toes? |
Yes, easy task!
Do you like any Youtuber in particular? |
Do you mean, the Youtube channel, or the Youtuber as a person (for example, if they are also a streamer)?
I have subscribed to 141 Youtube channel, 121 of which are from my country, 47 are inactive, so yes, I do like some Youtubers XD I have many fields of science, videogame critics, Pokémon, fitness, Strongman, politics, and humour. We have a national equivalent to the Angry Video Game Nerd, these guys are so creative and funny, so I'll pick them. As for the remaining 20 English-speaking channels, well, it's mostly Strongman content... How many Youtube channels have you subscribed? |
Idk. around 10 (can't currently check but that's about right). I end up unsubscribing a lot from stuff that I don't watch anymore. One of the channels I still am subscribed to is someone I used to know but they haven't uploaded a video in 10+ years. xD
Do you have a favorite streaming service? |
Crunchyroll, probably. I don't actively watch streamed stuff all that much. Also sometimes watch live-streams for some things on YouTube, if that counts.
Have you moved around a lot during your life or do you still live near where you were born? |
Hmm not at all. During my childhood, I moved just once from our old house to my new one which is bigger and newer.
After that, I don't know if it can be considered moving, but I study very far from home (around 7/8 hours by car). But yeah, I am on rent. Do you have a favourite phone brand? |
Did you know I'm a fanboy of Dark Souls? Well, I'm also a fanboy of Asus lol.
I've bought an Asus ROG (gaming laptop) in 2016 and an Asus smartphone in 2017... AND I'M STILL USING THEM 😨😨😨 Well, the gaming laptop is a bit "weak" for 2020+ games, and I assume my smartphone is probably weak too for gaming (but I don't play on smartphone), but I have had ZERO issues with them! What do you use more: smartphone or laptop? |
That's actually hard to say. At work I mostly use my Smartphone as an MP3 player because I don't want my music on my work computer. At home I use my laptop more as that's the main thing that allows me to escape life (by watching politics content and stuff ^^").
I think it evens out in the end. What's the oldest hpone you had that you can remember? |
huh, I can't remember the name. It was a nokia flip phone. black on the outside and grey in the inside. It had no camera tho. I remember being jealous because my parents had one and I didn't and I felt ready for it because I managed to set up my parents' phones. I was like 9/10 at that time. I remember my grandma bought me one because of that, but my parents were quite angry at her. Tbh, I would have been as well lol. Anyway, I remember they made me promise that I wouldn't have had the sim card until I was 12. So yeah, I had to wait that much and then I got my sim card.
Do you wear glasses? Quote:
