1	Troper. Likes to browse through looking for favorite series and the tropes therein. Amateur "Ham" Radio Operator (No, I'm not giving out my callsign).
2
3	Really hates this third-person thing.
4
5	Has added entries to several tropes, and has created one "series" listing for the SeafortSaga.
6
7	Is done talking about himself in the third person.
8
9	I'm currently working on a ''StarTrek'' fanfic-turned-original-universe-novel that features several tropes--which I call out by name in my notes in the universe bible! TVTropesWillRuinYourLife indeed.
10	* Upcoming quote, on seeing the first design of fighter-pilot flight suits
11	-->Protagonist (and soon-to-be figter pilot): "Why are the chest sections [[RedShirt red]]?"
12	-->Designer: "[[LampshadeHanging Uh...no reason]]."
13	-->Protagonist: "[[GenreSavvy Change it, please]]."
14
15	* Also, plays NotWearingPants straight in a starship combat scene: the protagonist does not realize that he is on the bridge with only his shorts under his (transparent/translucent) emergency vacuum suit until combat is over.
16
17	* A backstory note for a particular ship class notes that these ships only fly solo on patrols in backwater systems where "''[[TemptingFate nothing ever happens]]''"
18
19	* FunWithAcronyms: the Single-pilot Tactical Assault and Reconnaissance Fighter, aka [="STAR Fighter"=]. More commonly known by a variant name/class name than the acronym.
20
21	* I find that I'm heavily influenced by RobertHeinlein's World as Myth structure. Any named character ''exists'' somewhere in the multiverse. I might put them through hell, but I try very hard not to kill them except if it is required to advance the plot. On the other hand, if you find yourself in one of my stories without a name, find a good place to hide. And no, a rank or a callsign don't count as a name.

23	Active commenter over at the SCPFoundation wiki. Still have to come up with an original mainsite post that doesn't vanish into oblivion, but rescued [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-647 a cardboard box]] from the recycling center...
