My favourite sport has to be Football (alright, Soccer) but Basketball is pretty close.

I'm getting into Politics and Economics and they'll probably overtake Video Games as what I like to talk about most other than sports.</p>

One random fact. I only started following basketball about 3 years ago. Prior to that I had no knowledge of the NBA (other than the name Michael Jordan, the Bulls and the Lakers). Oh, and the reason I support the Cavs is that they happened to be one of the teams on the TV two days after our first basketball lesson in P.E. I chose them randomly out of the two and looked them up. It just so happened that it was LeBron's first season - but that's a coincidence.</p>

Random fact: While you see my programming work here at S2, I spent decades as a video game designer/programmer for companies like EA and Activision.</p>

</p>

</div></p>

</p>

What type of games did you help to design/program?</p>

</div></p>

Marble Madness, Dark Castle, Beyond Dark Castle, Budokan, Bubsy, Sonic the Hedgehog II.</p>

I actually almost got to do the very first Madden Football. In the early days, that project was a disaster and for some reason I had the guts to ask if they'd let me do it anyway

1) Football (OR as you incorrectly say Soccer)</p>

2) Be-Atches</p>

3) Studying Economics, Business, Maths and History at A-Level.</p>

I'm sure the ladies love it when you call them such an endearing term </p>

</p>

</div></p>

Haha indeed they do. Ladies in america will let you call them anything if you pay them enough.</p>

Hey Max, we're basically doing the same stuff at A-Level (well, I'm AS Level atm) only I'm doing Further Maths and Politics rather than History</p>

So which sport do you play the most?</p>

oh yeh i'm at AS lol. I looked at my brother's timetable today and he has 5 lessons a day 5 days a week. Wheras i have 32 every 2 weeks. bliss:D</p>

</p>
 
I have 22 1/2 hours per week of lessons.</p>

cpaw, I easily play football the most. All my mates are really into it so its the natural choice. I played basketball a lot a few years ago, then I stopped and became awful again. AS Levels are basically the Junior year of HS and A Levels are the Senior Year. After that it's off to Uni.</p>
 
<font size="1">1 </font>Basketball, though I prefer playing tennis. <font size="1">2</font>Film and literature <font size="1">3 <font size="2">...I would have saved a bunch of money on my car insurace by switching to GEICO; however, Massachusetts legislature is far too short-sighted.</font></font></p>

  2. What is your favorite not-sports topic?
  3. Provide one random fact about yourself

</p>

1. Basketball, Football, although I rarely play either; the occaisional pick up basketball game. As for sports that I play: my passion is rugby union</p>

2. I love talking about hip hop</p>

  1. What is your favorite sport? Basketball and Rugby League are a dead heat
  2. What is your favorite not-sports topic? Music
  3. Provide one random fact about yourself. I have recorded a triple double, a hat-trick (in Rugby League and Union) and still to this day hold a record at my high school in the 100m breastroke. Also I captained 5 sports my senior year in High School (Athletics, Swimming, Rugby, Australian Rules Football (like Gaelic football with more contact on a cricket sized field) and BBall)

</p>

</p>

</div></p>

Any particular type of music that you focus on, or do you have a wide range of the stuff you like?</p>

</p>

</div></p>

</p>

Well to be Honest Im a bit of a music buff. Ive been in Hip Hop, Jungle, Dubstep, Electro, Metal, Indie Rock and Folk projects before, Ive seen close to 200 shows of a wide range of music (Including one 8 day period where I saw Michael Franti, RHCP, Soulfly and Buddy Guy) and have done a bit of reviewing for a few sites over the years. As long as it isnt commercial, Im checkin it out. If I dont like it, 9 times outta 10 I can at least respect it.</p>

I don't think we have an official age limit. Just for the record I am 19, turning 20 in a few months.</p>

I joined BBB at 13, was a poster for a few months before becoming a moderator. I was a moderator for a few months (I have no idea how many). I did some immature stuff at the time when Ididn't agree with theirfounder. After my days of being a BBB moderator were over Ileft to be a founding admin of JBB. I have matured a lot since then. I look back at my behavior when I was 14 on BBB and laugh at my immaturity.</p>

Out of those, I've played Sonic II. LOVED that game. Thank you so much for providing me with such a masterpiece.</p>

I wish I still had it...I'm actually thinking about getting the whole Sonic series off ebay or something (my brother sold all the old Sega games we used to have).</p>
