Hi,
I am Elaine from San Antonio, but my heart belongs to Seattle I just wish the rest of me did as well, I am in Sales insurance (oh JOY! how did that happen??!?!?!) I hang out with the biker crowd but don't ride, it does make for some pretty dramatic evenings though.
I am so addicted to Thief that once when my computer crashed I snuck up on my best friend and black jacked her with a shoe, she was not amused LOL
I am currently playing Mystery man and am kind of stuck and came here to look for a hint or two and got distracted.
oh and this is my first post on this forum!

Hi Myystique,
at the bottom of the Forums page, click post new thread. put in Mytery Man in the Post Subject box, then type in your question about Mystery Man in the box underneath, then click submit. 3 to 5 odds it will be Nightwalker who knows the answer. Welcome to the forums.

I have been reading posts in this forum for a very long time and I am a devotee of anything Thief. I have also never posted before. The reason I am posting is that I find there is a mutual respect among individuals here more than I would find in many other forums or places on the net. I am married and childfree. I am a web designer and my DH is a graphic designer/artist. I ask myself why I like Thief so much. Perhaps it's because I like to find things, sneak around, and catch people by surprise. Sometimes when I am discovered while sneaking around I figure I might as well go for it and run around like a fool scoping out the landscape before I die. I have played each OM (at least twice) and I think I have played just about every FM available. I await with bated breath the next FM that an illustrious author has taken the time to voluntarily give themselves up for. Please keep them coming. I have an insatiable appetite for them :cheeky:

Welcome to the forum Myystique! I hope we see you around, lots. Another Thief addict is always welcome.
I absolutely LOVE reading this thread. It was a great idea! It's a lot of fun to read about the people who share a love of Thief, especially all these great FMs. Keep'em coming, folks! :D

Hi, my real name is Chuck. I am 30 and have been married for 11 years. I have two kids, a daughter (12) and a son (11). When I play thief they both like to watch and cheer on the bad guy!! As you can tell from my handle, I really like to knock AI down. It took me a month of playing to realize what the Sap was for!!!:confused: I have been a thief fan for about 4 years (98). The single most influential event in my life was graduation from basic / Advanced training for infantry in the US Army and then going to the Persian Gulf a year later. I taught myself computer hardware over the last ten years or so and currently work for a large medical institution in Rochester as a PC Technician. My Favorite Thief Gold Mission is Assassins. Thief 2 is Life of the Party. I too really like the 2nd story work(I served with the 101st Airborne). Calendra's Cistern is my favorite FM, but not by much. Smugglers request gave me that queasy feeling in the pit of my stomach that I miss from younger days. There are so many good FM's out there. Calendra's Legacy has left me in somewhat of apathetic state, I mean after that jewel of a FM, all else just seems anti climatic. I am currently playing another game (Blasphemy, I know :ebil: ) Dungeon Siege, just to pass the time until I get my zest for Thief back. To all the Moderators, and FM designers a Big Thank YOU!!

I've noticed most fans of thief are quite intelligent ( me being the exception :p ). I really enjoy the SLOW pace of the game, how I can patiently wait in the shadows for that perfect moment...... wait..... :sweat: ...... hold on ........ NOW !!!! :eek: (BONK) :eww: (slumps to ground ) :bored:
Favorite missions:
7th Crystal
Assassins
Art of Thievery
Creature Clash 2
D ( well it must be, SINCE I'VE WASTED SO MUCH DAMN TIME TRYING TO FIGURE THIS DAMN JAPANESE MISSION OUT !!!! :mad: )
Anyway, my girlfriend doesn't appreciate anything I do that involves my computer. Man, why couldn't she be more like some of these women on this forum..... :wot: OH CRAP .... HERE SHE COMES! GOTTA GO NOW! ...... ( no dear, I wasn't writting anything about you .... no put down that knife ..... NOOOOOOOOOOOO..... )
