Kiitos itsellesi! :)

And I can ensure it was 100% correct (if you meant the "Kiitos" was correct). It is great to read someone actually does like what people in here are doing :)

And as Scythe told, welcome on board :)

Mmm.. Out of the curiosity: (answering is 100% volunteer, I understand if you rather keep your personal matters as your personal matters ;) )

You have Finnish roots? Since I am a Finn, I would love to hear more about that. Have you actually lived in Finland? What part of Finland you/your ancestors were from? How was the move etc.

Mmm... I guess it would be also good to have an opinion from someone who's not (or at least has not been) so heavily involved in making this site: How important do you think it is to offer gaming related tools for download, or tell about those on this site? We have almost totally neglected that section, and I am wondering if I should bring out some information / downloads about the many freeware gaming / game making related tools out there?

I just feel that not too many are interested about those. I think most people visiting the site are looking for games only? Am I correct?

Weird enough I have been thinking about the same thing these last days Maz.
And welcome to nmfinn! It is always nice to greet new people, and your comment on the site was very nice to read indeed. It is nice that people find it worth their while, since we send so much time and energy on it.

Hello. I'm Jetstar from Gamehippo fame. I program freeware games in my spare time in C++, Python, and Gamemaker (Sorry! Trying to break the habit). Going to hang around here.
