I'm so tired I can't even bother to make a proper link. :(


No link for once. Your still talking about the guidelines but no link. Guess I can finally start gathering some respect for you in the Introduce Yourself Board.

Actually some of the first people that registered at the forums are good RL friends of mine. They're just not active.

But for some reason MINDistortion just isn't able to really get the grip on Austria, despite being known by almost everyone i know in real life (without me telling them about the site myself, usually it's friends of friends that tell them). Then again, Austria is a really, really really, really really really small country.

so was this suppose to be a european site? or were you gearing it to austria but the popularity just kind of grew into the USA? cause i for one think this site is pretty interesting =]

I was never aiming for any specific region. It just happened that I receive more visitors from the USA than from any other countries. I suppose that, when you use english as your primary language and build a presence on mostly US based websites (like Newgrounds.com) you're bound to get most visits from the USA :)
But even though I didn't manage to build an Austrian MINDistortion community it still got me enough presence to build connections to several smaller Austrian companies => Commissions for me! ;)

Congratz, excellent achievement for you.

What they said ^
I mean theyre stickied. If you intend to read them, you read them independantly. I guy reposting the links wont sway most no0bs minds.

With that kind of space I'm sure they could support us, like the cousin's they had no clue about until they showed up at their front door step. We'll go over, eat all there food, drink all their beer, and move to the next suck.. eerrrrrr... member of the family kind enough to not shut the door on our face and shoot at us.

(I can see why no one else in the family likes us =P)
