You might have heard of a company called Blitz Games. It's something like fifth biggest independent video games developer in Europe. Apparently. Anyway, I just found out that the founder of the company went to my school!  yikes   yikes   yikes

So, discuss this or famous people who came from your area  big_smile

Re: D: Wow

Once some guy from Australia came to my school, I felt sorry for him (I do not live in Australia and no one knew who he was).

Some guy from Australia came to my school, too!
He was a substitute teacher.
All of the kids were mean, they kept laughing at his accent. :c

Re: D: Wow

Not a celeb as such, but this man, Paul Dadge went to my high school and was a 9/11 hero. He saved the woman in the well-known photo I gave the link to above... he came back last year to our school & we all met him :3
IMO he's more of a hero than a celebrity will ever be...

Same. Well, she was from New Zealand actually, but they kept calling her Australian  yikes
They kept begging her to say certain words because they thought it sounded funny in her accent! I felt sorry for her...

I think saying who was would reveal my city.

Which the ST doesn't like.


I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

Because they were all making fun of her accent, and the only reason they got her to say certain words was so they could laugh at how she said it.

Oh :c
I think the Australian teacher's accent was awesome, so whatever he said sounded cool :p
Nobody begged him to say certain words, but they kept laughing whenever he talked :c
