Me: My original, longest-running Internet handle was VoidStar, which I totally thought was a wicked-cool sounding name in high school and blah blah blah self-insert Tenchi Muyo fanfiction blah blah blah somehow it ended up sticking for years and there's still stuff written under that name floating around on various websites. (NONE OF IT IS THE AFOREMENTIONED SI CRAP THOUGH, SO DON'T BOTHER.) Anyway, nowadays I pretty much go by my OOC journal name,
dosetsu, or various humorous shortenings thereof. Though most CFUD-involved people tend to call me Chizuru.
I play: Chizuru, Himeko, Sayo, Yuuna, Yoshitaka, IN DESCENDING ORDER OF HOW OFTEN. I try to get everyone out and all, b-but yeah uh I can't make any claims to balance.
Available on: When I'm online (and I'm online a lot!) I tend to be on IRC. I very rarely "away" on IRC, I'm either there or not. However, since my aways are so rare, I tend to forget to set a nickname indicating that I'm away. XD So if you PM me and I'm not answering or whatnot I may be off playing silly superhero games or something like that. I am capable of getting on IRC from work, but for some reason my work Internet has a serious hate-on for IRC most of the time, so I drop from the channel a lot.
I'm also on AIM fairly often, under the screenname Xhizurur Forever. When on IRC I'm usually on as Chizuru, but I'll occasionally nick to one of my other characters--most often Himeko or Sayo.
Timezone/Language: I'm on EST--however, I tend to be up when lots of non-EST people are because I work nights and sleep during the day. English is the only language I can speak with any confidence, but I can read Japanese okay. If I have furigana that tends to help a lot
The playing experience: I'm not the spammer some are and I'm distractable, which means more short/dropped threads than I'd like. Really, feel free to poke me if you're looking for a reply and I haven't given one in a timely fashion, I don't mind! XD I'm on a pretty good connection at home, and am capable of getting on at work, but for obvious reasons I tend to be a bit slower than usual at work unless there's like NOTHING going on.
Goals: None in particular? Just . . . playin', bein' IC while bein' funny, meetin' characters and havin' a good time. I like apping semi-obscure, smaller-time characters and so forth, but that's more of a general trend than a goal.
Betaing: I've betaed before! I wasn't that great at it, unfortunately, and swore it off for a little while. XD I'm less inclined against it now, so feel free to ask! As mentioned above, I'm on IRC and AIM a lot; you can hit me up via email, too--it's in my OOC journal's profile.
Of course, be advised that when I say "beta" I mainly mean "proofread." I'll help you out with spelling and grammar stuff, and of course ICness if I know the canon well enough to comment on that. I won't help you write jokes or stuff like that.
AUs: Not really. XD Joke ones, maybe. I don't have any problems with porn, as such, I just think LJ's a really awkward medium for it. I'm also bad at writing that sort of thing for an audience.
Pimping: Sometimes! I need to do this more, actually, argh. I pimped random PPD! episodes way back when but haven't really done anything like that since. XD
Other: I dunno, stuff. Oh yeah, sorta echoing Tomo here, feel free to tell me if I'm overstepping in some fashion or if I should stay out of a particular thread, stuff like that. I hate stepping on toes--though admittedly, I do tend to drop in on threads unannounced a lot. XD That doesn't mean I won't delete or change a comment if asked, though!
