Flinn is obsessed with Italian politician Silvio Berlusconi and many of his closest friends suspect that they may be one and the same. Flinn is also TWC's resident Dudeist and is responsible for drinking more white russians (and wine!) than all other TWC members combined. He's got an insane appetite (aka Bunga Bunga) for avatars, having changed hundreds of them over the years! For the full story, just check below!

The real history!

The Beginning

Flinn arrived at TWC sometime around mid 2012, but only joined during December of the same year. Like many others, he has been attracted at TWC because of Third Age: Total War mod, the glorious overhaul modification for Medieval 2: Total war, set in the Middle Earth. Flinn spent the first few months of activity at TWC at the TATW fora, making himself comfortable in that corner of the site. While there he wrote a strategy guide and mostly supported other members with gameplay and strategy suggestions, while also doing some mod testing. Every once in a while he goes back to visit his first home at TWC, and it's always exciting.

The Personal Help & Advice and the Eagle Standard

It was not long before Flinn discovered his second home at TWC, the Personal Help & Advice (aka PH&A) fora; this place is dedicated to ask, and give, personal support and advice with the many struggles of real life. Flinn became active around mid June 2013, and after that he spent a huge amount of time there; for the first part of his TWC life the PH&A was his main area of contribution, where he both posted about his own struggles and helped many fellow members with their own. As of today the PH&A is still a very important part of Flinn's activity and he's a recognized authority there, also acting as the Local Moderator since 2015.

During mid 2014 he joined the Content Staff, and became a writer for the Eagle Standard, the publication primarily dedicated to review and preview TW Games and modifications. It was a quick start, as early as August that very year he had his first article published and also earned himself his first Scribe's Quill (the Bronze one); by the end of 2014 he was promoted as the Director of the Eagle Standard, aided by the fact that the former Director had to suddenly resign. He served as a writer and Director until mid 2018. As a writer he wrote a total of fifteen articles himself, as a Director he overviewed, edited and published a total of twenty four articles. During this time he also managed the transition from the old forum publication to the most recent Content Management System (aka CMS) publication.

Moderation

Flinn was hired as a Global Moderator on March 2016 and served as in the TW section of the Forum up to January 2017, when he was promoted into Hex.

As a TW Moderator he had to deal with the launch of the first Warhammer and the following heated period, among the other things. Upon exiting the official Global Moderation team, he remained as a Local moderator in various areas, mainly the PH&A and the Questions and Suggestions and, from early 2020, he's assigned as a Local moderator at the Thema Devia forum.
