Hello there, my name is Quinten, and I'm from Holland. I play Warcraft 3 RoC since I was 6.
I played it on the PC from friend of my mother every time we visited. Off course I sucked at it, my original language isn't English so I didn't learn anything from what ever tutorial...
Until I became 7 and asked Warcraft 3 for my birthday. Then I started asking what certain things meant, like the speech Arthas gave in chapter 5 of the Scourge of Lordaeron.
I played it for years, made many drawings of undead and Arthas.
I believe I was 10 when I got Warcraft 3 TFT. And I was just 11 when I first finished RoC.
But there was one single thing I liked even more than playing and beating high scores at Campaigns, it was the Editor.
Every single day I just created something. Although I never really finished a single map. Just giant groups of Abominations fighting Knights and Murlocs, hours I could watch it.
Slowly I started figuring out things. Here the things in an accurate order: my first breakthrough was how to change terrain, then how to place tree's, gold mine's, how to edit unit stats, triggers, cinematic transmissions, variables, how to issue points and units, colour codes and then ultimately, my most recent discovery; Custom Campaigns.
For all these things I haven't used a single tutorial/how to. I'm 15 now, and found this AMAZING website.
If I had to chose one Race that I feel like I have the most in common, it would be the Blood Elf because: Their hunger for magic is identical to my ''hunger'' for creation. This weird feeling on acidic emptiness that only can be filled by drawing, writing, building with LEGO, or ultimately The Editor...
This may be all a bit to personal, but at least I got this out of my system...
Damn time flows, another hour devoured by wasting time...
