Real Name: Rasmus Björling

Location: Arvika, Sweden.

Age: 16

Hair: Blond, rat, short and curly.

Eyes: Blue, with lighter stripes going towards the middle.

Height: 172 cm

Job/Grade/College: I've finished my first year at Solberga High School, with computers and science orientation. (For some reason that translation didn't really feel right...)

Favourite Band/Artist: When it comes to bands I've seen live it must be Eagles of Death Metal and Circus Alfon. I also like Freak Kitchen and lots of different game musics.

Favourite song: I like Freak Kitchen's Razor Flowers. That song has a special meaning to me as it was the last song I learned to drum to when I still played the drums.

Favourite Type of Music: Mixed

Favourite Movie: Many! In no particular order: Monty Python movies, Pixar movies, many Jakie Chan movies, Forest Gump, Sherk, Kung Fu Panda and also some of the classic Disney movies.

Favourite Book: I like the Ender series and A Song of Ice and Fire. But I really don't read that much books, and if there's a perfect book for me somewhere out there, I don't think I've come across it yet.

Favourite Authors: I always have a hard time when it comes to listing favourites, whatever the subject might be. There are many authors I like. (As a bit of Trivia, both my mother and my brother (Blondbeard) have written some books, and I think they're really good.)

Favourite board game: Puerto Rico, Robo Rally, Settlers and a few more.

How long have you been playing DROD for? Blondbeard introduced me to DROD about 4 years ago, but I really started playing it when I began working on The Underground Civilisation (my first hold).

Ever beat DROD? Yes, JTRH, TCB, DROD RPG and many smitemaster selections and other holds.

Favorite Holds: Beethro's Teacher, Gigantic Jewel Lost, Doctor E. Will's Mega Complex, Perfection, Ssslitheryn Expert, Simons Dungeon and many more.

If you could be stuck on a desert island with one person (alive or dead, and you can't pick Beethro), who would it be? I have no idea. Could be one of my friends or siblings.

What is your number one favourite thing in the entire world to do? Drink milk with: cacao, crushed coffee beans, sugar, syrup and maybe a little mixed banana. :drool

What's the dumbest thing you've ever done? Heh! I once, (pretty recently actually), did a volt down from our big trampoline. It worked. So I figured that if it worked when I ran and jumped of from close to the edge, it should also work if I did it from standing on the curved metal tube at the end. I landed flat on my back. And it hurt.

What's your proudest moment? Can't remember, they're all proud moments, except for the one mentioned above maybe.

Are you a morning person or a night person? Probably night.

Origin of Username: Rheb is for Rasmus Hans Emil Björling, my full name.

Cat or dog person: Cat, (We've got two, Dott and Mimmi).

If you could describe your personality with one word, what would it be? backflip

What makes DROD so great in your opinion? All the awesome holds, and all the awesome people on the forums.

What do you do in your spare time? I've realised I do way too much pointless stuff, like playing silly flash games or just clicking around in the drod forum or other web sites I enjoy following. But the things I'm happy I spend my spare time doing are mainly: Training (running, kayaking, karate...ing?), playing games or shooting with softarigun with/at my friends and DRODing, at least when I'm being productive.

Should Erik or Clayton make you an Admin? yes

Real Name: Shai Abraham

Origin of Username: What a nice question. Mannnny years ago I used to play Neopets, and I named my Shoryu (I think that's what they're called) Gildon. I thought that name was cool, so I adopted it as my nick, but it felt too short and weak, so I made it DARK AND EVIL.

How long have you been on Caravel Games?: A day... :x

Location: Kfar-Saba, Israel

Age: 20

Hair: Brown

Eyes: Brown

Height: I really have no idea. I would assume about 1.75m (convert to your own inferior measuring system)

Job/Grade/College: Soldier. Been one for two years now.

Favorite Band: Dream Theater

Favorite Soundtrack: Probably .hack//SIGN's

Favorite Type of Music: Progressive Metal, Classical, Rock

Favorite Movie: Can't point to one, but for comedy - South Park, fantasy - LotR, sci-fi - eXistenZ?

Favorite Book: The Ultimate Hicthhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Favorite Author: I don't read enough to have a favorite author

Favorite Game: Well I am going to risk being burned at the stake and not mention one of the DROD titles; Adventure/quest - The Longest Journey, platform - Oddworld, FPS - Half-Life, strategy - StarCraft

Favorite Non-Video Game: D&D? :P

Favorite Holds: Hey, I've only been playing for a day.

Least Favorite Hold: Same as above.

How long have you been playing DROD for? Well actually, I used to play some years ago, but it wasn't anything serious.

Ever beat KDD? Nope

If not, how far are you? Eighth level (I really hate mother tars...)

What do you do in your spare time?: That would very much depend on -which- spare time? The one I have at base or the one at home? With the former, that would be playing Half-Life, playing the piano, learning Japanese and reading books.. and with the latter it would mostly be playing whatever on the computer, currently NWN2, Company of Heroes, DROD, and Half-Life 2.

If you could be stuck on a desert island with one person (alive or dead, and you can't pick Beethro), who would it be?: There are many people I would be "glad" to be stuck with on an island. I mean it in the good way.

If you could describe your personality with one word, what would it be?: Unpredictable. In fact, a few days ago two girls at the base were telling me exactly that. They were saying it was impossible to tell whether I would think positively or negatively about a random subject, and that it would seem sensible that I would support either extreme view on it. Then I was testing them and asking them what they think I would think about something, and either one said an opposite side, guess it's true. :o

Should Erik or Clayton make you an Admin? Definitely not now, when I'm barely at home, and when I'm this new to the community.

Three things you don't know about me:
1. I'm getting dismissed from the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) in a year.
2. My 3-year service is mandatory.
3. But I've learned a lot of useful things during my service.

Name: Zack
Location: ManchVegas New Hampshire
Age: 27 (DOB: 5/14/1980)
Job: Financial Advisor
Favorite Band: I like a lot of different types of music. Alternative, Ska, some rap, Classic Rock, straight up Classical. I'll say TMBG just for fun.
Favorite Movies: I watch a lot of movies. Really tough to decide, but I'll say Super Troopers, because I went to college in Vermont. Oh, and anything by Miyazaka (Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, which is not even remotely a translation of the Japanese title). My favorite is probably Kaze no tani no Naushika, which if you haven't seen you should. Also Tenku no Shiro Rapyuta, or Castle in the Sky. Also a must see.
Favorite Books: I tend to like fantasy books. Harry Potter jumps to mind. R.A. Salvatore's Drizzt books are also up there. J.R. Tolkien. I really don't like a writer unless they go by there first two initials. Oops, I guess Diana Wynne Jones is up there too.
Time playing DROD: I played the webfoot version of KDD back in college, which I think was late 2000, 2001. I beat it then, and didn't think to look for it again until a couple years ago when I found JtRH, which I mastered without hints as I didn't really actually look at the forum after buying the game. It wasn't until after I beat it that I came back again and realized the forum was here. I couldn't count the number of hours I've played.
Beaten DROD: See above
Favorite level: TCB Interlude Negotiator.
Least Favorite level: TCB, the last level with Halph and the builders.
Favorite things to do: I play Ultimate Frisbee, which is actually where the picture next to my name comes from. I had just hucked a disc, and (very ineptly) photo shopped a sword into my hand.
Dumbest thing ever done: Driven from Vermont to New Hampshire and back in an ice storm.
Cat or Dog person: Cat person.
What's the origin of your screen name: Well... long story. I spent a year abroad in Japan while in college where I joined a Japanese Ultimate Frisbee team. We went to Hawaii to play in a tournament called the Kaimana Klassik, and while there saw a restaurant called Captain Zack's. From there a nickname was born. Zakku is the English version of how you would say Zack in Japanese. The name I play DROD under was my nickname when I played Ultimate in college here in the states.

Ultimate Frisbee?

Ultimate Frisbee is played on a field that looks like an (American) Football field, with two end zones, and 7 players per team on the field. Play starts by throwing the disc from one end zone down to the other end zone, much like a kick-off in football. From there it is more like a combination of soccer and basketball. You can't run with the disc, you have to throw it from person to person to get it down the field. There is no tackling, or contact other than incidental contact from two players going for the disc. Teams will play either man to man defense or zone, but either way, like basketball, someone is always covering the person with the disc to make it as difficult as possible for that person to throw it. The player with the disc has 10 seconds to get rid of it, as counted by the defender. The cutting is probably most like soccer. The general idea is to start at your end and work the disc down the field, and eventually catch it in the opposite end zone. A turnover occurs when the disc hits the ground, goes out of bounds, or is caught by the team on defense. Play does not stop, other than to pick up the disc, or bring it back in-bounds, much like basketball. Fouls are called by the players, as there are no referees.

See the attached hold for my DROD version.

How long have you been on Caravel Games? This be me first day on board, mateys.

Age: 25. Go on, tell me I'm too old to spend my days playing DROD, I dare ya.
Hair: Black, short and mischevious.

I think mrimer, the guy who posted right above you, knows russian. If you have problems with DROD you can probably ask your questions in russian to him. He is one of the peoples responsible for this game. Just press the little "Send Private Message To User" link below his post.
