Hello, my name is Stigma-231, otherwise simply known as Stigma. I've been a contributor to a few wikis over the course of a year, and in that time I've ranked up some experience. Have any questions? Feel free to leave them on my talk page.

A history with Left 4 Dead? You bet. On November 11th, the demo was released. I'd been hearing things about the game for a few months then, and looking back at some of Valve's other projects that I'd played, I was both scared and intrigued (you'd really have to get my history with Ravenholm to understand). So, after a little bit of prodding by my friends, I downloaded the demo. Of course, I was quite impressed; the AI was generally good, and I wasn't quite as afraid in most situations as I'd thought I might be. I only screamed a few times, and that was only when I suddenly felt an adrenaline rush coming on (like when we were entering a safe room just as a Horde started coming our way). I wanted this game.

However, for a time, I couldn't get it. There were conflicts, my, yes. Most have been resolved, but a tense air still lingers. Long story short, I got it.

What are some of my fondest memories of Left 4 Dead? Well, there was the time where I was playing with one of my friends in one of the campaigns, Death Toll, on the chapter The Drains. A Tank suddenly spawns and starts hitting us around, but all of a sudden, a man dressed in green rose to the occasion, distracted the towering beast, and ran into the pipes with it. Alone. I was admittedly anxious, but soon I heard the Tank's music cue fade, and our hero returned completely unscathed. Later in that run, he also stood next to a pipe bomb as it went off, and took absolutely damage (he just yelled at my friend for throwing it down next to him). I also really love a good chase. An example? Once, there was a Witch sitting near the ending safe house on The Drains, and somehow, Francis set it off. Although it was in vain (I was playing with the AI), I couldn't help but shout at everyone to get inside! Miraculously, everybody made it in without the Witch showing them their innards.

This wonderful game aside, I should probably talk a little more about myself, shouldn't I? I've always been madly in love with video games, ever since I was a little girl (yes, you read that right), although my tastes have obviously changed over the years. I used to primarily play games such as Kirby and Pokemon (what can I say? Nintendo is awesome...for the most part), but in time, I found my interest in Halo and Half-Life and other such shooters...which lead me here. I still go back from time to time, yes, but I'm most frequently found with a nice first person shooter. I'm also a bit of a Grammar Nazi at times, but not the kind to rip your arms off and spoon-feed them to you with a heaping helping of "This is why you fail," no! I simply want to help, and my goodness how some wikis need a good whipping into shape!

Hm, I guess I've run out of things to say at this very moment—what a shame! If you'd like to talk sometime, whether it be about Left 4 Dead, kittens, or the wiki itself, either look for me on the wiki's IRC channel or send me a message on my talk page, and I especially encourage you to do either if you have any questions about the wiki. I'd be more than happy to help you out! Want to play on Xbox LIVE sometime? Look me up, then! My gamertag is Stigma 231, because I can come up with a billion different names for myself, oh boy.

Thanks for reading! I look forward to collaborating with everyone to continue making this place the best source of information about Left 4 Dead!
