Hi there, I'm Adam or somewhat unknown in-game as Illuminatus. I am a big fan of the show so I thought I'd see what this game and forum was all about. Although still unranked, I think I'm getting my head around gatewars now (including its silly large numbers??). Could do with a couple allies to play the game with otherwise i can see this getting a bit boring :P I don't use IM's so if you want to get in touch (either to ally or to war with me :D) then you can do so via in-game messaging or on iMessenger using my email to add contact.

As a Full-Time student, i have a lot of free time... so i though what better way to waste away my days and nights than with a text based mmorpg. Seeing as i am now almost completely nocturnal, this game ticks the boxes.

A bit about me.. I'm 20, Male and from the UK. I am currently a student studying Forensic Computing BSc(hons) at Birmingham City University. Originally from Manchester I have now moved down to Birmingham to live with 3 strangers :D. Previously worked in Banking for Barclays.. that was fun :/ and before that in Retail part-time for IKEA.. Just as fun. I like Music, Tech, TV (Dexter <3), Xbox, Clothes, Coffee, Baking and Angry Birds. I don't like Art, Cold Weather, Fast-Food, People who breath too loudly, Vodka (incidentally, vodka doesn't like me either) and Salad.

That will do for now :) See you all soon!

Adam.

Welcome to the Game.

Dont ever get discouraged, things will happen that you may not like, but just take it and if possible give it back 8)

Thanks everyone for you welcome messages. Seeing as it's been a day i though i'd share my achievements so far :P Firstly, my rank is around the 1000 mark so my Glory and Reputation Score is very slowly increasing, I have stolen a total of 19.1 million units by raiding, also stolen just over a million-million Naquadah. In total using 11 thousand attack turns :D.

Now that i'm getting the glory points, i'm not too sure what to aim for next :p i figure i should keep my rank where it is so i don't draw too much attention to myself until, like our friend said, i am "big enough". BUT yeah.. i'm open to suggestions :P oh and also alliance offers ;)
