1. How often do you visit Read And Find Out?


Really too often. It is bordering on sad.

1.a) Is visit the wrong word, perhaps? Is the correct question "How long have you lived at Read And Find Out?"


Getting there.

2. Did you migrate here from the Homeland?


Yes. But I like it better here.

2.a) If no, who introduced you to this glorious site?

3. Which Messageboards do you frequent?


This and Movies and Community (except when I occasionally lose faith in humanity, like these days. then I take a short hiatus), occasionally Games.

4. Did you take part in the inaugural Book Club on the Sci-Fi & Fantasy board?


Not so far. I do not usually read based on any schedule but my own, so a bookclub is a bit of a foreign concept. I am waiting for it to be about a book I care about.

4.a) Do you plan to take part in January's Book Clubs?


Maybe the non-fiction one. I am not reading Feist.

4.b) Did you vote for the Book Club choices?


Yes.

5. Have you read The Gathering Storm?


No.

5.a) If you answered Yes to 5., have you joined discussions on the Wheel of Time Messageboard?

5.b) Would you enter a competition on the WoT Messageboard to win a free copy of The Gathering Storm?


Hehe no.

6. What is your favourite television show?


Oooh. Tricky question. I have never been good at giving one favourite. I suppose Doctor Who is a candidate.

6.a) What is your favourite film?


Ummmmmmm. I have no idea how to measure that. A Cock And Bull Story is excellent, but I don't watch it very often. Love Actually, on the contrary, I watch very often. And what about Zatoichi and Kung Fu Hustle and Coffee and Cigarettes, and The Tiger and the Snow and City of Lost Children? And what of all those Jane Austan adaptations? Or Jane Eyre? And how do I rank Rocky Horror Picture Show in all this? How do I compare that to My Fair Lady?Himmelfall? Ghost Dog? Ronin? Jumping Jack Flash? Seven Samurai? Anastasia (with Yul Brynner, not the cartoon). I wouldn't call any of these my FAVOURITE film, but I love all of them. Choosing between them seems odd.

6.b) Have you made any posts on the TV & Movies Messageboard?


Yes.

7. Do you play any console games?


Yes. Mostly various nintendo things.

7.a) What is your favourite board game?


Lord of the Rings Trivia Game.

7.b) What is your favourite card game?


I don't think I have one. Possibly Ben's storytelling one.

7.c) Have you ever joined a discussion on the Games Messageboard?


Yes.

8. Have you ever played Dungeons & Dragons or another RPG?


Yes. Loooong ago.

8.a) Go on, tell the truth. Have you?


Yes!

8.b) Have you joined any of the games on the RPG Messageboard?


No. I never was one for online RPG. I need the dark atmosphere and the heaps of candy.

8.c) Did you even know we had one of those?


Vaguely.

9. What is your favourite Category on the Community Messageboard?


History, perhaps? Or Science.

9.a) Would you join in with a ROscars event?


I'll read, probably vote.

9.b) Would you like me to explain what "ROscars" might be?


No. Who came up with the name?

9.c) Is RAFOscars a better name?


Possibly.

10. Do you know who the Team members are?


Yes Some of you. I know where you live.

10.a) Do you wish you could post on the Team Messageboard?


Mostly I just wish I could read it.

10.b) Would you believe us if we told you it's really quite boring? (Truly.)


That is what they always said.

10.c) Why has our illustrious leader, Sir Benjamin Drinkalot, not put up information about himself on the Meet the Team page?


Because he is paranoid and plans to run off and leave us with the mess? Or one of them, anyway? Or because he is busy playing Halo?

11. Would you come along to a RAFO Gathering?


Sure. If it were in Edinburgh.

12. Do you know how to change your colour scheme?


We need a smiley that just looks at you like you are stupid. Oh wait.

12.a) Did you know we had colour schemes?




13. Do you know how to change the quote style so every paragraph is quoted separately?




13.a) Don't you think that's jolly useful for surveys?


It is.

13.b) Don't change it now because if you do you'll lose all of your answers.


I didn't need to change it.

14. What is your favourite Donate! message?


I think the zombies one.
Or possibly the one that just says DONATE. I am very susceptible to that sort of messages. But then I convinced myself I might as well just give Ben a tenner next time I see him.

15. Have you submitted any Quote of the Moment suggestions?


Yes. And Ben should definitely get round to delegating that to someone. I suspect there is the mother of all backlogs.

16. Do you read instructions at the top of pages or do you just do what you went to that page to do?


I don't think that sentence made sense.

16.a) Have you read through the Bugs & Suggestions page?


Yes.

16.b) Have you posted any Bugs or Suggestions?


Yes.

16.c) If so, did you check first whether it had already been posted?


Yes.

17. Do you keep an eye on the News sections on the Homepage?


Mnnn

Isn't it just typical, sponging (is that a word?) off the hard work of the books board.
