User:Xnera
Hi! I'm xnera. I prefer my username to have a lowercase x. Something about the way a capital X looks next to the n bothers me. Abbreviation to x is allowable. I don't mind if the abbreviation is capitalised.

I first heard about Perplex City when I stumbled across Unforums while searching for information about the River Tam Sessions, which were a series of short viral marketing videos promoting the movie Serenity. I was intrigued by the whole idea of ARGs, but at the time decided I wasn't quite ready to get involved in them.
Time passed. Then in May 2006, I was browsing ThinkGeek, looking for gift ideas for some friends of mine, when I saw the Perplex City Puzzle Cards on their site. I placed an order for my first four-pack of cards on 19 May 2006. I quickly became hooked, achieving the red leitmark in early June and the orange by the end of the June 2006. :D I write about PXC often in my journal, and check for updates frequently throughout the day. I'm often found in #syzygy and on Unforums.
I've previously done indexing and summarizing as part of the historic_alley team. We indexed posts made to nraged, a fan community for the nocturne_alley Harry Potter RPG on LiveJournal. It was fun! I'm looking forward to making many contributions to the wiki.
