Who am I?
I am your standard overage teen(20 lol), out partying most weekends enjoying my life as it comes.  I'm very much into music although i don't have a particular genre, to pick a few, hip-hop rnb dance house garage dnb rock(heavy and light) bit a screamo here and there maybe lol.  Another, hobby i have other than computer, is cars.  I am really into the modified car scene, modified mine a little here and there hope to do more soon!  I am a very keen gamer and started playing FPS games ages ago.  My first computer FPS would have been enemy territory and i now often play the likes of enemy territory, cod4, cod5, cod:mw, l4d, l4d2, wsw.  I love the half life series and have been impatiently waiting for hl2:ep3.  I am in a clan called HESS and i am the lead coder/server admin there as well.

What am I in TM, on TMX, in the past, present and future?
Well, in TM, I'm your average player, I'm not amazing but I'm not too bad.  I'm into tech tracks mainly but fullspeed can be fun at times.  On tmx, i am the same again your average tmx user.  I don't strive to make everyone love my tracks, i don't advertise them around and get people to check them out.  I make tracks  for pleasure and then they appear here.  I occasionally upload replays but not so often as most of the time i play online.

I am also, i would say, the lead developer/project manager for all the tmx sites.  This means i make sure the sites are kept running and make the tricky decisions when i have to.   I log bugs/feature requests and hand them out between me and FastForza.  To give a bit more insight into this, when thinking about a job needed doing i judge the complexity and how much i or FastForza would enjoy the work.  I then assign it to one of us and we test it to make sure it works.  However, i am still very fair and try not to always give FF the rubbish jobs, i do try to spread them evenly.

For the future, who knows. I hope to keep improving this site and i have some very big plans i am working on but im not going to spoil the surprise.  The thing i am working on will benefit the whole tm-community sites and not just tmx.  From a player, and tmx user perspective i am very excited hehe ;)

As a player im excited for TM2 and the future with ubi and nadeo. I am also very expectant on the future community,  TM2 could be an amazing game but unless it is community driven like it is now it wont be anywhere near as successful.
