Pretty sure I've answered this (first) question before but will again. There are sorta two answers here. I had joined originally for a low key place where my responsibilities were just to play the games and have fun. I have been part of many other communities in my past, but I have always either end up running the whole thing or becoming some sort of management for it. I needed some place at the time where I had no responsibilities. I left most of those groups however over time for various reasons. And part two of this answer ultimately boils down to @DrkChocolate. I wasn't a fan of TF2 growing up and didn't understand the appeal for a long time. Drk however showed me why people still love the game and why it's noteworthy. It kinda showed me how deep a sense of community really goes. And through it all has always been a friendly face I can depend on :)

Favorite movie....
Let's go with Star Wars. Uhhhh if you are gonna pin me to one of em specifically, Let's go with ANH.

Favorite food....
Can't go wrong with the different types of pasta dishes.

Greatest moment.... Gonna say being TF2 EC Mgr. Was an absolute blast to work with the team and build something that was working well.

Most embarrassing.... I got myself into some hot water at one point and almost got myself in serious trouble with tech 5 years ago. I regret a lot of what happened.

Do you enjoy long-winded explanations
So, two answers here:
A) believe it or not, I am on the spectrum, but very highfunctioning. A lot of my over explaining comes from trying to ensure my points are properly conveyed because what originally comes out of my mouth isn't typically precieved how I intend for it to be and sends a different message. In turn I suppose a tick I have is to overdo it.
B) I enjoy deep conversation. Never really was good at small talk. So yes, I really like getting into the depths of a good conversation about things that are, well, interesting. Science for example is a subject you can get lost in! It's not so much I want the floor till I'm done talking and want that attention moreso I like the exersize of thought and so on. Believe it or not, I'm a pretty big introvert. I very much prefer that comfort, but I guess when I actually do get to actually talking and socializing, I have a lot to say.

To your last question, I actually already have answered that in my first post
 
What would you like to accomplish as a personal goal within the community?

What would you like to change for the betterment of the eGO community?

So, for the first one, I think I've accomplished it. I set out to make eGO more enjoyable for the masses; I've done this through work as an EC, helping to shape some policies in eGO's rules to help make things safer, and now through working to create a new division within eGO, we now have more good stuff that people can enjoy, My current goal is working to make Battlebit a staple of the community.

If there was something I'd like to have changed in eGO, sometimes we get ourselves stuck with procedures, I'd like to help balance things out more. (Sometimes we have more procedures and security than my actual job has! Great on paper, but practicalities matter)
