Started and completed college. Started and completed university. Moved to France. Moved to China. Invented a time machine. Repeatedly went back in time and, using my mastery of corporate espionage, ensured the continued delay of FFXV.

Joined EoFF.
Became a CK.

FFXV has been in development so long that the first thread complaining about how long it's been in development is over five years old.

In all seriousness, I sadly haven't done a whole hell of a lot. Fell in love, fell out of love, moved far away, came back home, played a lot of games, watched a lot of movies, read a fair share of books, listened to some music, started a Youtube channel with a friend, had a falling out with said friend, became friends with him again, talked about making another go at being Youtube celebs, haven't followed it through. Now posting here.
