I am studying MBA in finance. 1 year done, 1 year remaining.

Was able to come here due to covid. Unfortunate. :P

My schedule usually is very very hectic.

Also, I have first year final exams from Tuesday which were postponed due to covid,

What made you fall in love with cricket? (If that is the case)

So when I was a child, I wasnt actually that great at cricket when it comes to playing it at streets. However, I remember in 2005 or 2006, champions trophy was on going, it was india vs aus, ofcourse india lost the match, but I saw end overs of india, MSD was in his crazy slog mode those days and he smashed and took india to 250-260

that is all when the interest developed and soon it was like compunding interest, i used to run to from school to home whenever india had a match (also a major sachin fan then) and it was his resurgence time when he was once again in his prime during his late 30s.

Then I began to develop more interest. Indian cricket, IPL, bit of major int. cricket, I never used to miss a match.

Also,
I joined a cricket forum in 2012 (Cricket World, one who made CWSim) and this way I got acquainted to the forums!

I became an admin over there by 2014 due to my activeness, we used have leagues over there like here but using PCCS and then CWSim

Unfortunately that forum was dead, it went for a revamp in 2017 and for a while again became active but soon again turned dead.

I am a craver for such cricket forums. Glad could be here again. Even this forum is past its prime tbh

I remember in 2014-15 i joined here and activity was crazy. I always used to enroll for leagues but never got selected :P[DOUBLEPOST=1595089543][/DOUBLEPOST]

So why the obsession with Molly? I am much better looking. Does she remind you of an old teacher or something?

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

What made you join the forums earlier?

previous answers will cover this i guess

What made you come back now?

this one too

Favourte cricketer?

since the day I followed cricket, Sachin Tendulkar
since 2008, Rohit Sharma

Views about the PC community as a whole?

Very much talented and if the people here are actually using that talent and caliber in their actual productive life, they can work wonders.
Coming to the forum part, I really love that the forum itself is a cluster of so many mini forums, there are leagues, there is general discussion, there are game discussions, there are modding, there are graphics

in most forums, only one of these or at max two exists

Kudos to @MattW and other contributors

May be forums not have a cult following due to people moving to social media
but the forum is one of the best place to find another virtual life we always wish for![DOUBLEPOST=1595089935][/DOUBLEPOST]

i guess you are more obsessed with her as you keep bringing her back in convo :P
for obvious reasons though
