First of all, let me just start by saying I love all the hard work you people have put into UQM. You brought back to life one of my all-time favourite games and for that I'm truly thankful
I've been a massive StarControl fan since i was a wee boy in the early 90's living in Finland. To this day, I still love SC2 dearly. I've been a happy UQM user for 4 years now and the latest release is absolute top-notch brilliance.
Little about me, I enjoy making movies, digital art, graphic design, hockey, and of course video gaming. I'm currently attending college in Canada.
So that's the scoop on me so far. Looking to become a contributing member of the SC2 community here, so thanks for having me. I'm also looking for people to hit up for melee every now and then.
Cheers
PS. Forgot the Angelina Jolie obsession.

Hello, nice to see more people here. We don't really do introduction posts at this forum but I'm sure this isn't the first. What's with Star Control and the enormous number of fans it has that hail from Finland?

I don't really have an answer for you there, I only remember a handful of friends from Finland that knew SC2
In the 90's, lots of independent Finns were busy creating DOS games (along with Future Crew/Futuremark), so I guess it's no surprise they'd be familiar with the best game ever made.
I've managed to get a couple college buddies hooked on UQM. One round of SuperMelee and they fall in love with it.

Yeah, unfortunately Denmark only sees Swedes who consider it a worthy venture to go somewhere to get drunk cheap. Swedes and Danes used to war all the time. Not too far from me are a few defensive forts which were built for such occasions. Nowdays I think it's mostly the Danes who are annoyed by the drunk Swedes.
As a Swede I can read Danish and Norwegian, but it's harder to understand it when spoken. Apparently they have less problem understanding spoken Swedish.
