I work as a software developer. I live with my wife and a cat. In my spare time, there are several interests, including photography, guitar, video games, weight lifting, music, movies, lego and of course, to solve puzzles.

I'm a student in high school.
I think I'm the only one... :cry:

I enjoy video games, I play volleyball, and I have a dog.
I'm a pretty generic teenage boy.

I don't know anyone else personally who likes these puzzles but oh well.

I think the world would be an uglier place hadn't someone invented LEGO bricks!

..... I don't have kids, so I try to solve any practical problem with LEGO in order to be able to play with them... :lol:

You think you're the only person in high school? :?

Don't worry, I don't know anyone personally who likes puzzling, let alone Revomaze, maybe it's because I live out in the sticks :o

Alex what sort of problems do you solve with lego? :lol:

No I just haven't seen anyone here who is in high school. It seems to mostly be men who are out of school and have jobs.

Well I got a job just so I could buy Revomazes!
:lol:

J/K... Partially... :P

Mike, all sorts of stuff, but the best probably has been a Mindstorms powered rotating table to make catalog photos of objects at precise rotation angles, that also pressed the button on the DSLR...
Now I must say that I recently switched yo Arduino + 3D printer for that kind of stuff, but every time I enter a shop with a decent LEGO assortment I always come out with something in the bag... And.... Please forgive the slight OT... But I'm so proud of this collection:

I like Nintendo titles best, like Mario and Zelda. Besides them, I like to play adventures like Tomb Raider, Life is Strange, The Last of Us, Uncharted and Heavy Rain. I also like horror games like Resident Evil, Until Dawn and Alien Isolation. sometimes I also play Rocksmith and Dirt Rally.

That's a lot of Lego figures! :shock:

I can't wait for my son to be old enough to give me an excuse to bring the giant box of Lego out of storage.

It's the whole 16 official series (Series #16 still not there when the photo was taken) + the two Simpsons ones, the Lego The Movie one and the Disney one...

...plus 8 custom minifigs representing my girlfriend and me during a sort of timeline of our relationship :P
