Read Before Adding Me: I get a lot of random friend invites (an unintended consequence of having a high Steam level, I guess). Because I prefer to keep a manageable friends list, I don't usually accept invites unless we have many friends in common or have played a game together, etc. If you have a high Steam level (200+), I'll probably accept, no questions asked. For all other requests, leave a comment below with the reason you are adding me. If I don't accept, it's nothing personal - as I said, I just prefer to keep a manageable friends list. Also note: I am not trading/selling any of my TF2 items, so don't add me for that reason. You are welcome to leave a comment below with offers or questions, and I'll get back to you if I am interested. Beggars, don't even bother.

About Me: I've been playing games since the late 70s, and have owned nearly every major console from the Atari 2600 to the PS3, though my favorite platform has always been the PC. I also like collecting stuff, such as items in TF2 and badges in Steam. I am also one of the few Steam users to have full-XP badges for every event before the new profile system was implemented: completed all 28 achievements in the Great Steam Treasure Hunt, collected all 36 potatoes in the Portal 2 ARG (and friends with "Dinosaur"), collected all 76 tickets in the Steam Summer Camp, completed all 78 achievements in the 2011 Steam Holiday Sale, and completed all the tasks in the 2012 Summer and Holiday Sales.
