{ Image: i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd79/DiamondsStuff/aprilshowers.gif } **~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~** We would like to say to Red Panda for letting us step into their personal life for a bit.1. What brought you to GoldToken? How'd you choose your name for GT? I joined because of trax, in order to get better before the email championship. My normal name was taken, probably by me 6 years ago, so I chose lemming as my initial name as that was a nickname of mine, but my favourite animal is red panda, and they are so cute. 2. What interests you most on GT? I like the games.  3. Do you belong to any of the clubs? How about the chat only clubs (birds, kitties, garden)? I am in a few clubs, both generic clubs such as friendship club, but more of the one game clubs such as senet, lines of action and xiphias. I run a few clubs , one for monthly multiplayer tournaments, and a paper football club. One of the most interesting clubs is { Club } , which is about a game which is not even on GoldToken 4. What State or Country do you reside in? Do you live in the City or Country? I am from Brisbane, Australia, but have lived in Indonesia for the last 16 years. I live in Jakarta which is a city of 22 million people What in your State or Country do you think tourists should definitely see? Indonesia has lots of great things, beaches (Bali, Lombok) , mountains, volcanoes, and amazing wildlife like Orangutan, and weird and wonderful diverse cultures. 5. What hobbies to you have? lets see.. golf , billiards , watching movies (once a week), and writing. I am currently just finished a screenplay for a movie.. now I am trying to sell it 6. Children? None 7. Do you work? If so what kind of work do you do? Yes, I work, as a computer security consultant. But project base, so sometimes lots of time, and sometimes no time. This is my semi retirement and consulting and training people is fun. I wrote and produced leading security awareness training material. 8. Any pets? 1 pure bred persian tortoise shell cat  of 12 years old. She won trophies when younger9. Are you under 30?___ 30 to 50? ___ or over 50? almost 50 10. What's the farthest you've been from home? Was it a vacation or for business? Well..that is a tricky question.. I have been on both work and vacation trips across many places.. Trekking the Himalaya's was definitely the highest point at 5700m, and also was 10 days away from home as i would have to walk out. Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and Laos was pretty remote. Even Chicago is the other side of the world from both Brisbane and Jakarta. In January I went to Seoul in Korea and it was -18C , which is very very different from the normal temperature of 32C in Jakarta. 11. If you could be anywhere right now where would that be? interesting question. On my list of things to see are Cuzco Peru, Angkor Wat in Cambodia, but where would I want to be right now is probably Raja Ampat. It is one of the locations in the movie I wrote but i have never been there and it sounds and looks really wonderful. If there are any questions you would like to see asked in future interviews, please let us know. Laura laura lee
I've been a member since 2002 when my best friend at the time introduced me to GT. I'm so glad she did! I've probably been playing just about daily ever since. lol I've learned some new games and made some good friends along the way. I like the flexibility there is when it comes to how much you want to be involved in the site, like making your own club, etc, or just coming to play games - no strings attached. My favorites are backgammon and tourne-case, also Zero G FIAR and especially Lines of Action, although it seems not so popular around here. I don't understand why! I'm always up for an invite! Thanks for a great site! Hoosierenvy
