Introduction

Winter's finally going away! Oh its's been So very cold. Oh, Welcome, I am Ice Winlex, at least for a couple more weeks. I'm a huge fan of light novels, manga, and anime. I am also a gamer, I'm a big fan of sci-fi, and I wear glasses. I am a scientist, engineer, mathematician. Does that make me a nerd, geek, or otaku? My sister says all of the above, but she has no room to talk!

I come read here often so i figure I can at least contribute my proofreading skills as i'm reading. I also have some (as in not a lot) coding skills so I will fix any formatting issues i run across too. I'm not officially signed up to any particular project, but i do float around during the relatively boring times in my life. I wish I could call myself something cool like "The Phantom Editor", but alas, everyone would be able to see when i make an edit so I will have to keep working on a title.

If I go crazy while editing a project, forgive me kindly and leave a message on my Talk Page. So far, I've only pissed off one translator so i'm doing pretty good. I do admit though, i definitely went overboard and so he was right to lay the smack down on me. I won't be doing anything near that extreme without permission again.

On a personal note, I'm happy and saddened to see some of my favorites starting to disappear from B-T due to licensing. I just finished Volume 13 of SAO and when Yen finally publishes, i will have to wait at least 3 years before Volume 14. Worse of all (Spoiler Alert?), Volume 13 ended with a cliffhanger!

I find I sometimes read on my Baka-Reader, but don't have the time to correct typos i see while i'm reading. I later log in a can't remember where the error is. Proofreading over the phone is annoying so I will record pages and rough locations that i need to revisit in the future when i'm logged on via PC. If someone wants to do the fix before I do and they get the idea from my page, please let me know so i can scratch it off my list.

All books in my Reading List are of course recommended by me. Books with volume and chapter information are licenced work or soon to be. The volume in chapters are the last Chapter I was able to read before it became unreadable on B-T. If the book series suddenly starts sucking after that volume, I won't know for a few years.
