User:Petman1325

I am Petman1325, an Moderator, possibly one of the youngest members in Zelda Dungeon. Petman1325 has been a member of The Legend of Zelda series since 2007, and has since grown to more interests in the Zelda series. I have been active in the Zelda Dungeon forums since August 28, 2008. I was a Hylian Hero since Christmas Eve, now an Arbiter, and I'm just having fun being active in the forums.

Beginning the Series
My first look at Zelda when I was 6, and thought it was boring due to, well, I was 6! When I was 12 (2007), I bought a Nintendo 64, Expansion Pak, 10 games, a save pak, a rumble pak, and 4 controllers for the low price of $20. He was desperiate for cash, and he didn't like his N64 anymore due to his XBox. I bought it in March, and I played every other game except the Zelda game there. The game was The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and I eventually picked it up. After the first 1/2 hour, I was completly drawn into the game. The game was very exciting and action packed. The graphics were beautiful, the music was awesome, and I could barely put the controller down by the Dodongo's Cavern. Just like I do now, I was stumped in the Water Temple. The bosses were way better then any other game that I had played previousally. I procrastinated beating Ocarina of Time, for I found the game very fun, and I did not want it to end.

After the First Game
After that, I went Zelda crazy. I was completly attached to the series. After that, I borrowed The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. As much as I enjoyed it, I got a little tired of it, so I returned it. I then coughed up 500 Wii Points to download The Legend of Zelda. Then, I bought A Link to the Past for the GBA. Afterwords, I purchased The Wind Waker from the same friend, who was selling his GameCube games/console/controllers to pay for a Xbox 360. After getting the Master Sword in Wind Waker, I got Phantom Hourglass for Christmas of 2007.

The Online Community
After unlocking my inner Zelda fan, it was time to be involved. My first Zelda site was Zelda Universe, but my account was never validated. After that, I started hanging out in the Fan Stories section of Zelda Legends. In July, I started visiting Zelda Dungeon, I think for its Fan Games section (Hey, who doesn't use Google?). After a few weeks, I decided to join the forums, and I made a wise choice. I am mostly online due to the fourms. The community is quite nice, I have made a few alliances with some other users, and I feel welcomed. In December, 2008, I was admitted to be ranked up to the 2nd level of Zelda Dungeon, of Hylian Hero. I am currently a very active user of the site, visiting nearly daily. In Feburary, 2009, I was admitted to the ranks of an Arbiter, the third level of Zelda Dungeon's staff rankings. I do also on the occasion create some animated pictures for the forums as well.

Non-Zelda
I am also a PowerPoint game producer. I have already made one successful production called The Troublesome Maze. It is your standard maze game, but only with 2 boss battles, over 15 mazes (repeated twice (this number does not include repeated)), and a dynamic soundtrack also avilable for download. Only avilable for Windows systems with PowerPoint 2000 and up. I do also create short movies in my own time. I do occasionally compose my own music (such as those in the game and movies), yet have yet to release them in an album, with the exception of the Troublesome Maze's Soundtrack. I am also in my school's band, and their Marching Band and Pep Band. I am a decent Alto Saxophone player, 4th chair out of 9th chair. In my 8th grade and 7th grade years, I was in 2nd chair, losing to first chair by only 3-5 points in playing tests. When I entered High School, I lost some of what I had. Apart from that factor, I'm quite a good marcher, though I get off tempo only twice my 10 minute show, dominated 3 competitions, and went to at least 8 football games.
