I'll talk first about my gaming side.##
Being a heavy Total War gamer, I'd make more use out of these cards. If you've never seen any Total war games, I'll share some screenshots with you.
These are easily the most graphically intensive games out there.
First I'll show you images from the older Rome Total War series, which has been modded by the famous "Ferres Mod". Keep in mind, this game was released in 2004.
Then you have Medieval 2, Empire, Napoleon, and then Shogun 2.
I've always enjoyed the Total War series, which gives a good mix of logistics management and battle action. On top of that, I am an enthusiast for military history and enjoy putting lessons I learn from history into practice, specifically logistics.
Recently, I've downloaded the Napoleon: All in One. You can go here for a video.

These games are also tend to have a high learning curve and the campaigns take days. No I don't play on the sissy settings. I consider myself an expert gamer so I usually select very hard on Medieval and Napoleon or legendary on Shogun 2. On Rome Total War, I gotta mod the difficulty way up, otherwise I'd run through the expanded mod map in a day.
I've recently spent more time with BF3 and MW3. I've always enjoyed CoD's single player and am a good ways into the veteran campaign. Normal doesn't even feel like war. I'll always go back and beat it on expert, just like all the past versions.

My Super User Life
My contributions to Super User has been on the Windows side, particularly NTFS questions and Group Policy. Particularly, I've enjoyed scrolling through the Unanswered questions and I am most proud of my low scored answers.
- How to use two audio devices simultaneously with Windows 7?
- Aero: "Close programs using mirror drives" - How can I see what programs are causing the problem?
- How to show toolwindows in Alt+Tab switcher?
- Using Command Prompt arguments to run a file (with arguments) as an administrator?
More recently, I've enjoyed helping users with UAC, possibly the most misunderstood component of Windows. Many users don't realize that programs need to be launched elevated (Run as Admin) even if their account has Admin privileges. Almost a myth I've worked hard to dispel is the Runas
command providing the same functionality as Elevation. Runas
only launches the program with the explicit credentials. But it does not actually elevate the process.
I joined a while back when read about the site through Ed Bott. I enjoy looking for tumbleweed questions that few if anyone will see. Those often are some of the toughest troubleshooting questions. They don't get a lot of views possibly because they involve a particularly challenging or involve an obscure component.
I hope I am chosen and enjoy this site.
