Hi! I'm Tom AKA The Doctor's Son. I've been reading Rich's Doctor Who comic strips for a few years, but have just recently joined the forums. I am, of course, a massive Doctor Who, Torchwood and Sarah Jane Adventures fan (RIP Lis Sladen), but I am also a fan of Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Carribean, Terry Pratchet, Harry Potter, Raymond E. Feist, George R.R. Martin, CSI(LA and Miami), Lost, Fringe, Heroes, Smallville, Supernatural, True Blood and Primeval.
I live in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England, UK, so I am also a huge fan of football (please don't call it soccer!), particularly England and my local team Leeds United AFC.
I'm 21, enjoy drinking and playing footy with my mates, work at a supermarket, and enjoy playing football games on my ps3. I am also a huge fan of comedy, mostly British, and programmes like Mock The Week, QI and Have I Got News For You. I am also into rock and indie music: Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Kaiser Chiefs, 30 Seconds To Mars etc.

Hey man, the admin of this forum are Canadians. It's soccer. Deal. You can hardly complain about our name for the sport if you're going to call it "footy".

HaHa! Thanks for that.
Also, footy is more of a shorterning for typing rather than a name for football. Unlike soccer. I don't know, it's just one of those things that inexplicably grates me. Feel free to call it what you want, I'll just pretend that you referred to it as football. :biggrin:

Fine. We'll call it Association Football, and shorten it to soccer to save on the typing.

My name is Sam Burwell. I've been a fan of the comic since I first ran across it two years ago. I'm a long time rpg player and DM and I really appreciate the way Rich has made my favorite hobby come to life. I doubt I will post on the board too often but I'm usually on here reading the post of others.

Thank you! That's quite a compliment! Welcome to the forum and I hope you feel moved to speak to us from time to time!

Lol you're more that welcome. I don't know if you remember or not but I'm the same guy who sent you the insane request for the sketch in the next published volume. The multi-parter showing my defeat of chaos and rise of power ending in an elaborate funeral scene. BTW how's that coming along? :wink:

I um never did this before I went AWOL so why not? (Got distracted by school. Don't worry, I graduated.)

Hi, I'm Lorien077 (except on youtube, someone else is >_>) and started reading YAFGC a few years ago. Its one of my favorite webcomics and I have a terrible habit of staying up too late for the update. I'm a budding but awkward artist, in that I'm never satisfied with my work. Part of the draw for me is how effortlessly Rich seems to draw all of his comics. Someday I'm hoping to draw my own webcomic, and am trying to script a few ideas to see if anything works out.

Anyway I am also an avid DnD/ pen and paper gamer, and have recently gotten sucked into Minecraft and City of Heroes. I'd be happy to try online games with forum folks but I'll admit the play by post games I've tried to play in always bite it very quickly.

Currently live on the west coast of the US, and am a Mad Scientist. Seriously, that is my job title. I'm also a budding convention goer, and will be at the Stumptown convention in Portland next year. If you're going to be there just look for the red head in a ridiculous steampunk costume, and that'll (probably) be me.

/textwall ;;;;;;;; (sorry)

Welcome to the forum!

You gotta love a job with that title! :mrgreen:

Indeed! Welcome to the community Lorien077!

Trust me, those drawings aren't entirely effortless. The effortless ones are the messy ones.

Welcome! By the way, what does a mad scientist do outside of Girl Genius? We have to know!

Hi, Lorien077, and welcome!

Thanks all for the welcomes.

And you could have fooled me Rich, you just make comic-ing look easy I suppose.

Well Morgana.... there's world domination, but there's also the teaching part of the job. So there you have it.
