Welcome, Marchant!

[wtg]

An original WTFer posting under a new name!

Despite my repeated (though unintentional) efforts to derail the registration (didn't recognize the user name), @Marchant has managed to sign up and post here on Beta.

So glad to see you! It's been a long time....when you have a minute, please catch us up on what you've been up to.

[Marchant]

Thanks for the welcome, wtg.

I was on the original WTF and original TNCR with the username Ballyhoo. But I didn't post much, especially on WTF, so a lot of people here probably wouldn't remember me.

I live in Australia. I have a Yamaha keyboard but it's been quite a while since I played it.

I remember you by username though I admit not much else. But welcome!

I went back to PW and was poking around, and there was a hysterical thread that @Cindysphinx started where people tried to guess each other's real first names. Ballyhoo/@Marchant played a central role.

Strangely, the thread was in the Coffee Room, which was shut down years ago so that you couldn't even access it. I was doing a search across the entire forum, and apparently found a secret back door that got me to the OCR.

And I thought it was gone forever....

Welcome @Marchant !!

Re OCR, I remember someone else some time saying it was still accessible, but I don’t remember if they didn’t say how, or I forgot. I don’t think I ever tried. That’s a rabbit hole if there ever was one!

[Mik]

I remember you.

[Daniel]

Welcome!

[Marchant]

Thanks @dolmansaxlil @ShiroKuro @Mik @Daniel.

@wtg I remember that thread. I wouldn't want to look at it again now though, because I'm sure I'd cringe at what I wrote in it.

Thanks @CHAS.

I don't know what that means, so maybe I do.

Hi! I remember you. How are things?

[Marchant]

@AndyD

Thanks @RealPlayer

Hi @Steve-Miller, I remember you too. Things are OK thanks. I didn't comment in your thread about Rory but I found it very interesting. I hope he can overcome his challenges and make the most of his talents.
