Around the time I was in middle school and high school a friend of mine introduced me to a relatively large Star Trek gaming forum. I mostly lurked, but I did participate in one of the active turn based strategy role playing games known as Dominion Wars or something. I asked to be a little known race called the Gorn. Each day I crafted turn reports and did a bunch of math to see how many resources I produced, how many ships I built, and all of that stuff. I even made a website at one point with a detailed back story, fluff, and everything for my little empire.

I stuck with this game for what seemed like over a year through forum changes, rule changes, and tons of other drama, essentially just crunching numbers and getting into internet wars with the Klingons of all people. I quit shortly after an attempt to reboot the game because it had became too complex to be fun. I just wanted to build my space fleet and colonize new worlds. I tried to join other similar games, especially for Babylon 5 since I loved the series at the time, but none were ever as stable or engrossing. I've lost all of that stuff though so I can't even dig up anything for nostalgia.

Other things I've done include joining a Star Trek role-playing chatroom for a couple of months and creating an anime music video of Cowboy Bebop.
