Shrouded in mystery and notorious in infamy, TTL Locke is our newest Overlord. Pony chats with this Gunslinger in an effort to unravel the enigma of the man with the tie.
Locke: Victory!
Pony: YES!
Locke: That’s a relief
Locke: I was getting rather annoyed
Pony: yeah, proxy’s sorta hate you
Locke: we have a hate/hate relationship
Pony: counseling is necessary. dr phil is on call.
Pony: aaaaaalrighty, question one.
Pony: how did you come up with your gamertag?
Locke: Damn, we already started
Locke: ummm long story really
Locke: I had an alias online Named Alexander Locke
Locke: I always get people asking me “Are you some huge LOST fan?”
Locke: The answer is…YES!!!
Locke: But, not the reason I chose Locke
Locke: I thought John Locke from back in the day was cool, hence the tag.
Locke: /summary
Pony: original, i’ll give you that.
Pony: haha
Locke: haha, I’ll take anything at this point
Pony: okay, question two. how did you stumble across the gunslingers, and tied the leader in general?
Locke: Well, I used to play XBL solo a lot.
Pony: *gasps*
Locke: My rommate and I shared a tag actually
Locke: I got pissed off one day when I encountered like 5 cheaters in a row, and pretty much quit cold turkey
Locke: 3 months later I jumped back into the game on a whim, and decided I would play, but needed new tactics
Locke: I started searching online, and by some miracle found this place.
Pony: damn, talk about fate, considering you are now an overlord
Pony: /plug
Locke: Haha
Locke: Let’s keep that Fate kid outta this…
Pony: yeah, all we need is to give him a big head.
Pony: sheesh.
Pony: then he’d be like me… except… skilled…
Pony: AHEM
Locke: Actually, that may help me hit it during BR battles
Pony: haha
Pony: next question… what does the great Locke do in his average citizen life?
Pony: i know you work, as i am distracting you from it as we speak
Locke: I’m a CAD monkey. All day on the PC drawing up engineering specs and such
Locke: It has it’s perks, like being able to have the forums up all day
Locke: [prays the IT dept. isn't reading this]
Pony: *awaits flag
Locke: shhh…they’ll hear you
Pony: heh.
Pony: pink slip here you come.
Pony: alrighty, last question for you then… the big one
Locke: Uh oh…
Locke: It was just one time
Pony: you can be known for one thing, accomplishing one goal.
Pony: what is it?
Locke: we were just experimenting I swear!
Locke: oh…um…lets see
Pony: hahaha, no no, this isn’t about your boy scouts.
Locke: I prefer the term cub scouts
Locke: /tasteless joke
Pony: EDITS
Locke: This one’s tough…give me a sec to word this correctly
Pony: take your time
Locke: I guess it would be to become finacially stable enough to make money doing what I love. Eventually, I’d like to start my own business as an inventor. I’ve always found it both challenging and rewarding to those who work hard enough at it.
Locke: If I can do that, I would have way more free time to spend with my family and play games all the time
Locke: I don’t want to be remembered as this workaholic Dad who my kids never see
Pony: in order of importance, naturally.
Pony: and wow, respectable answer.
Locke: I want them to remember me as the dude who just outslayed the hell out of them!
Pony: haha, aaaand there’s the realism
Pony: very nicely played
Locke: haha
Pony: well let’s see… any last parting shots? words of wisdom?
Locke: Wisdom? From me? You must be mistaken.
Pony: sigh. i tried.
Locke: I’d like to give a quick shout out to the Gunslingers for being my second family.
Locke: They don’t ever drink the last beer in my fridge, they are gamers just like me, and our reunions consist of Halo and Guitar Hero.
Locke: What more could one ask for
Pony: amen to that.
Pony: thanks for takin’ the time locke
Pony: now get back to work you bum.
Locke: Do me a favor and cut out what I said about Stu.
Locke: Later.
Pony: haha
Pony: peace
