Yes, I'm from up north (Minnesota). Have been using the forums for a while now and finally got my account activated, thanks to Ralle!

I'm currently working on a project called Dungeons n' Warcraft (DnW). Its going very well and I haven't hit any roadblocks yet. Its a 5 player game, 4 heroes and 1 "Dungeon Master". This is my second revision of the game but I plan on making this mod somewhat open-source. Its not a DnD remake, so I'm not trying to port that over to Warcraft or anything of that sort. I'll try to release some details later on so you guys can see how its progressing.

I work at a Tech Camp during the summer and have found Hive Workshop a great resource to help me transition from the Starcraft editor to Warcraft's editor. Feels great to be part of such an awesome forum! Thanks everyone!

Some good places to start include:

The chat room is cool: lots of people can answer questions there.

* A few other tips that might help too:
o Always search first! Did I already mention THAT?
o When creating a new thread, make the title VERY specific: so the site's search engine (and we users) can easily understand just what the thread contains.
o Post your new threads in the proper forum: read the descriptions of each one so that you know what to post there.
o If all else fails, just send me a private message! I'll try to do whatever I can to help.
