So it seems we have all picked up a new category in our profiles. Hereīs mine:

Weakness:
Was a mighty Zulu in a previous life.

It may very well be true, as I have always had a thing for short pointy sticks and walking about in my underwear.

So Bill, is this a little April 1st nonsense, or a new permanent feature????

kreoseus201 Apr 2013 4:57 a.m. PST

thank you for that mental image….

Steve Johnson01 Apr 2013 5:06 a.m. PST

It happens every April 1st.

Texas Jack01 Apr 2013 5:14 a.m. PST

@kreoseus- be happy I didnīt post a picture grin

@Steve- never noticed it before!

DontFearDareaper Fezian01 Apr 2013 5:18 a.m. PST

Arrggg!! That scurvy Bill has uncovered me secret life as a pirate …

Mine is true. Naming my dog "Phil Barker" has saved him more than once from attacks from other dogs as they become more and more confused and begin bumping into trees trying to interpret my dog's bark.

epturner01 Apr 2013 5:30 a.m. PST

I'm okay with mine. He says I exert an automatic "no fly" zone…

Either I stink or I've got some kind of mad ninja reflexes against flying bits.

Funny.

Weakness:
Has a basement full of unpainted minis.

Yup. That's me!

Weakness:
Has a basement full of unpainted minis.

The only folks on this list who don't have THAT weakness are those of us who don't have basements evil grin

Florida Tory01 Apr 2013 5:47 a.m. PST

Another secret pirate here; sounds like a strength to me!!

wink

Wackmole901 Apr 2013 6:02 a.m. PST

Well it better than

Weakness:
Became a zombie in 2003.

Now its off in search of Brains!!!!!!!!!!

Ed Mohrmann01 Apr 2013 6:07 a.m. PST

My weakness ?

'Was once married to Elizabeth Taylor'

A strength, actually, when one considers the legions of
others who have been among Liz's husbands…

Rich Bliss01 Apr 2013 6:27 a.m. PST

He was right about me. "Frequently dreams of Napoleon". Unfortunately, it's the dessert that haunts my dreams.

Veteran Cosmic Rocker01 Apr 2013 6:28 a.m. PST

"Frequently dreams of Napoleon" with my Forum name that is uncanny

Ironsides01 Apr 2013 6:32 a.m. PST

how did he know…how did he know

Meiczyslaw01 Apr 2013 6:37 a.m. PST

Was once married to Elizabeth Taylor

Fixed the emphasis for you.

wink

Disco Joe01 Apr 2013 6:44 a.m. PST

Yes he got it correct about me being a pirate but I never kept it a secret.

Personal logo BrigadeGames Sponsoring Member of TMP01 Apr 2013 7:11 a.m. PST

He spilled the beans on my world domination with my weakness.

Jakar Nilson01 Apr 2013 7:22 a.m. PST

Exerts an automatic "no-fly" zone.

That sounds like an awesome power. Now, are there any war criminals trying to flee the country nearby?…

Dark Knights And Bloody Dawns01 Apr 2013 7:27 a.m. PST

"Weakness: Never the same after the Wargames Factory debacle…"

You don't know man, you weren't there!

mad monkey 101 Apr 2013 7:47 a.m. PST

Weakness:
"Another alias of Peter Hofshroer"

Who the hell is Peter Hofshroer?

mad monkey 101 Apr 2013 7:49 a.m. PST

Okay, I googled him. I write Ospreys on Prussians. I did not know that about myself. Tres cool.

kreoseus201 Apr 2013 7:54 a.m. PST

Mad Monkey, no I'm Peter Hofshroer…

Garand01 Apr 2013 8:33 a.m. PST

Weakness: Was once married to Elizabeth Taylor.

Me also. Not so bad considering how she was in her youth. But since Ed Mohrmann also has the same, I can now see why it was once. You cad….

Damon.

Sergeant Paper01 Apr 2013 8:48 a.m. PST

Weakness:
Single-handedly keeping the Sri Lankan economy booming.

I really see this as more of a strength…

Rogues101 Apr 2013 8:57 a.m. PST

A zombie, through and through. Yes Eric you did not need Bill to tell you that you exert an automatic no fly zone.

Footslogger01 Apr 2013 8:58 a.m. PST

He says I once met the Perry Twins.

That is not a weakness. Camping outside their houses and following them with a long lens would be a weakness. Or watching endless-loop video clips of them sculpting.

Roderick Robertson Fezian01 Apr 2013 9:44 a.m. PST

I rather like mine:

"Fact or legend? You decide!"

I'm a legend in my own mind!

Tom Reed01 Apr 2013 9:48 a.m. PST

Well crap! How did Bill find out that I was a Bongolesian exile? Now I'll have to make plans to move again!

Valator01 Apr 2013 10:30 a.m. PST

I'm proud to stand amongst so many other Napoleonic dreamsters.

basileus6601 Apr 2013 10:47 a.m. PST

So do I, Valator, so do I…

skinkmasterreturns01 Apr 2013 10:49 a.m. PST

I got the "Once met the Perry Twins" as well. Well,I havent,but I've met some of their work!

cantbeatdavy01 Apr 2013 10:51 a.m. PST

woof woof

Mollinary01 Apr 2013 10:59 a.m. PST

Haven't met the Perry twins, honest, but I do maintain the Sri Lankan economy single handed!

Ed Mohrmann01 Apr 2013 11:12 a.m. PST

Weakness: Was once married to Elizabeth Taylor.

Me also. Not so bad considering how she was in her youth. But since Ed Mohrmann also has the same, I can now see why it was once. You cad….

Damon.

We seem to be members of a NON-exclusive club !

captainquirk01 Apr 2013 11:54 a.m. PST

Mine was "less boring than last year".

Which might be true, I guess. I'm probably not the best person to judge.

GarrisonMiniatures01 Apr 2013 11:57 a.m. PST

I'm also down as 'named dog after Phil Barker'.

It was probably the last time I beat him….:)

captainquirk01 Apr 2013 12:05 p.m. PST

You're a Barker beater?

taskforce5801 Apr 2013 12:59 p.m. PST

Never the same after the Wargames Factory debacle…

The horror that I've seen…"Daisy, Daisy give me your answer do. I'm half crazy…"

*sob*

TamsinP01 Apr 2013 12:59 p.m. PST

"Mesmerizes opponents with Psychic Eye."

I think there is an "ot" missing from the penultimate word in my weakness wink

14Bore Supporting Member of TMP01 Apr 2013 1:31 p.m. PST

"Frequently dreams of Napoleon." and I don't have a Frenchmen in the House.

DuckanCover01 Apr 2013 1:34 p.m. PST

Actually, it's a spare room "full of unpainted minis." grin

Duck

AndrewGPaul01 Apr 2013 2:25 p.m. PST

Wonder what mine is?

edit: never even heard of Peter Hofshroer

captainquirk01 Apr 2013 2:34 p.m. PST

Neither had I, but apparently he is famous. Or infamous.

GoGators01 Apr 2013 4:48 p.m. PST

My legend IS fact.

richarDISNEY01 Apr 2013 5:20 p.m. PST

Zombie here.
But its NOT brains I'm after…

Uuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…. beeeeeeeeerrrrrr.
beer

Etranger01 Apr 2013 8:45 p.m. PST

I am, apparently, a Bongolesian exile. Which may explain some things….

ochoin ceithir01 Apr 2013 9:46 p.m. PST

"likes the word squishy"????

I've never, ever even used that word.

And I'll fight any squishy-brained Squish-clown who says I have.

platypus01au01 Apr 2013 11:05 p.m. PST

Weakness:
Was a mighty Zulu in a previous life.

Hey, so was I!

Sawubona mngani!

Ngizobuya,

John D Salt02 Apr 2013 1:56 p.m. PST

I deny being a Bongolesian exile, if only to preserve my security clearance.

All the best,

John.
