Allariah, I too have joined the forums to support my boyfriend, Hydro. I have to say, I've been lurking on the boards for a few months, and enjoy (from the ethnographic perspective of a nerdy grad student) reading all about the gaming world, which my partner introduced to me about a year ago.
I've barely played PF or other versions of D&D, because we've had problems getting together a regular group, but Hydro has gotten me into all sorts of gaming (Pokemon, Settlers of Catan, Magic) and I can't wait until we have a regular game up and running. (I had to give up on my bearded dwarf cleric, the game just never happened!)
I'm really excited to vicariously be a part of this (as well as being so proud of him for making the top 32).
