Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ

I've set up this topic to help clarify our Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ vs. TLS identities, as an (hopefully) easy-to-reference directory to Who's Who.

Here I'm Bill from PA, I was Swelter on TLS.

Hello Swelter/ Bill,

great idea!
Over at Guardian TLS, I used to be booklooker. Not difficult to guess at the moment, but I might change to just "Shelflife" later.

i retained my identity as i am a new goodreads member, so i was ab76 and i'm ab76 again

You used to be 'Bill from PA', but you seem to have morphed to just plain Bill.

Great idea! Here I’m AlbyBeliever, I was Rick2016 on TLS.

LLjones here, LLCoolJ_ there.

Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ seems to enforce a certain informality. I registered with "Bill" as my first name and "FromPA" as my last name. Still, "Bill" is preferable to "Mr. FromPA"

I think it's fairly obvious who I am/was/will be

I was MarGar there and I'm just me here: Lola.

In days gone past, before a fit of asininity, I was Webber Expat and I then respawned at the last save point as PaulTheExile. Now, the anonymity is shed. I feel naked. Pictures to follow

Was FatBuddha1, not sure what or who I am here, Pete, I think

giveusaclue there, still asking for clues!

I am Pam

I am still Simplicity Drifter, a name I chose quickly from a random user-name generator and may as well stick with

Hi Bill, everyone. I'm the poster formerly known as aldopaulista. I'll try to be more communicative here...

Hmmm, do I need to make it clear who I am? :-) Although I could be a different person from the 'gladarvor' on TLS now that I think of it... y'all just have to trust me!

Veufveuve there and Veufveuve here. But as others seem to be doing, I might as well partially out myself. I'm Andrew.

I’m Diana here (dihuet in TLS).

CCCubbon there and here for now but I am Margaret .

Thanks, Bill, it is really helpful

Hi all, Reen ... reenimus that was, glad to ditch the "imus". Thanks to all who are trying to set us up in our new digs. Still navigating...

THANKS for setting up this group on GR. Getting lost in what’s what and where... Testing, testing....

I was a TLS lurker. Thanks for setting this group up.

I’m Toril, usually lurking, occasionally appearing as Dellamor.

Thanks for setting this up!
I mostly lurked, and occaisonally commented, as Melia13. I'm sure you could never have guessed from my guardian username but:

Hi, I'm Amelia :)

"Veufveuve there and Veufveuve here. But as others seem to be doing, I might as well partially out myself. I'm Andrew."

I'd love to out at least my first name, but it's really far too rare and would immediately show who I am. I might revisit my position, but for the time being, I'll stay glad(arvor)...

PS: I wonder how many people have seen that there is a 'who's who' discussion... I was not sure either how this worked yesterday and almost missed the 'TLS' one started by LL.

Hey come one, everyone knows your name is Gladys, Glad ;-)

The poster formerly known as Captain_Flint (AKA Flinty AKA Varese AKA Vasco) is called Slawkenbergius on this other side of the freakin' mirror.

Hey come on, everyone knows your name is Gladys, Glad ;-)

Meuh non, you know full well it's Cheryl (the one nice thing about GR is that it allows us to make edits, although this could be tricky too...).

scarletnoir here - just changed my ID on this service. Hope we can keep things rolling here, after a fashion...

Just had a look at my profile, with 359 books rated... take all that with a pinch of salt... when I signed up to GR in 2015, I rated a lot of books I had read in the past. It also seems that books rated on behalf of my mother (e.g. Dick Francis - who I have never read) ended up on my list, as I assume they passed through my Amazon account. Most of the books were read by me, though, and most of the ratings stand, more or less.

Hi, I'm JayZed over on the Guardian, and here as well; also known as Josh.

I also sometimes post about books on Twitter as MrJoshTweets, but am currently on an extended Twitter break. Books Twitter is great, but it can be hard to avoid the toxic cesspool that is the rest of Twitter.

Hi: I'm lorantffy over at the Graun. I already had a profile here under my real name, Sandya, and just couldn't be bothered to set up a new one..... Sometimes life is just too complicated. I don't have a Twitter account tho' I am on FB under my real name, and I have a LinkedIn profile.

Hi there...ChronicExpat or CE there, Karen here.

The last two sentences make me feel... uneasy!

As they should, I have learned that hysterical pregnancy is not limited to the female half of the species

Committed lurker here, sadly sloping over from TLS.

80 members! Wow!

From beautiful Oslo, if I remember rightly.

That’s correct, CCCubbon! Wonder when we’ll be able to see that beautiful city again... (pulling myself together). At the moment I’m in the far north of Norway though, in the second volume of the Roy Jacobsen quartet about the island of Barrøy. Wonderful writing, a perfect escape!

I have those books in my pile to read. We are unable still to get the Echoes second but Ihope that it will not be too long.
I posted a photo of Lincoln Cathedral on the Group photos because I love to see where people live and would delight in an Oslo one.

still dont know who Joy is, or was, on TLS

I'm wondering too!

Was Tally Matrix on Graun. Just a bear here. Long time account, rarely used. Long time lurker on TLS/BG.
I have been inspired to read so many books through those pages - thank you all.

I have found so many great books from you all on TLS not least Lonesome Dove. 90% lurked but posted occasionally under Tats1

Haven't found a way to change my profile name, here as Silke, I have been franhunny on the Groaniad.

Hi, I did post a few times as urbinolilac way back but latterly stayed as a lurker. I gleaned a lot of books for my TBR pile and really enjoyed the posts about everyone's lives.

I was not really a TLS participant but came across a number of you over the last three years in the Not The Booker reviews where I post as Mr Brown.

Hi fran, I *think* you just need to go to your Account Settings (if you click on the top right corner, on your non avatar) and change your first name there.

(PS: How irritating that you have to untick every single fucking time the 'Add to my Update Feed' box when you post a comment. Forgot a few times already, sheesh. If anybody knows of a way to disable that bloody thing by default, I'm all ears!)

Welcome Mr Brown. Watched your jury panel discuss the NtB on Monday (before all hell broke lose), it has put the three books that were championed on my radar, thank you all for that (Magrat, Katecha, Sam and you).

Hello all, and thanks for setting this up!
I normally lurk with occasional posts as fowlerisgod on the G.

I think you can go to Account settings, then the the tab marked Feeds and untick “Comment on a book or discussion�. Your comments should then no longer appear in your feed.

Also, nice to meet you all here. It's lovely to see so many familiar names. I’ve added comments very sporadically on TLS with the name AdinaB, but mostly just lurking and enjoying it from a distance. I'll try to write more here on GR.
