I thought membership there was akin to having been born with a tail so I don't talk about it so much but rather stand facing out from the corner and wag a little.

Hello, my name is BlackDogNate, and I'm a Kongregate addict. I wonder if anybody who posts in this thread will have more points than I do. Dear gods, I hope somebody does.

FoB, I thought I might have a chance, but you do have quite a few points. ;)

Ooh, I didn't know you could set that on your profile.. *does*
Still not entirely sure why my username there is Harry Campbell.

Same name, as usual when someone posts something like this and I actually am on it. My name is cobaltnine and I'm an achievement addict.

I'm joshmillard, though a glance at my profile makes it clear how little time I spend there and how rarely I remember to log in when I'm actually playing a game on the site.

I'm here. I have 726 points right now, though the great majority of my time over there was spent actually finishing Gemcraft Chapter Fucking Zero, aka, the longest tower defense game ever. By the time I actually made it to the final level, beating it was a piece of cake.

I'm Diagonalize over there too, although I've never bothered to share this profile with anyone before. I wonder if that means I should maybe update it one of these days.

Huh, I never signed up because I've always been a bit hesitant to sign up at a free games site. Any negative stuff for the members who've signed up? Is it worth it to do so? I say this as someone who is marginally addicted to Caravaneer.

No negatives that I've ever seen. The chat client can get a little annoying at times, but it's easy enough to ignore, and achievements are a good way to get more mileage out of wasting time; you play more if you have a set goal to reach.
More than usernames, does anyone have a decent room to hang out in? The average level of discourse varies pretty wildly, I've found...

Mostly Harmless tends to be pretty good.

I'm a flash game addict, and I'm even making a flash game of my own right now, yet I've never bothered with getting an account.
This reminds me to quit playing around MetaFilter and get back to work on coding.
Right after I quit playing around Kongregate, where I just got an account.

I'm bjrn, also on Kongregate. Also, I'm more obsessive about badges (and/or have more time) than flatluigi.

Wow - I really did not need to learn about this site.
I'll be LogopolisMike there, unless somebody else already has it.... which would be really weird.

Level 38, for which I won't even pretend to feel anything but embarrassment. To be honest, though, I pretty much never pay attention to the "social" side of the site.

I'm not proud to be level 41 under the same name as here, minus the period. Sigh. Not proud at all.
