'''PSA (Feb 21, 2018): Throughout the rest of the week, the entirety of March, and early April, I will be drowning in important 'real life' work that I very much need to prioritize. I'll still be monitoring the wiki and taking small breaks to make small edits, but please know that I will be unable to (or: 'really should not') edit intensively during this time. That said, don't hesitate to leave a message on my Talk Page should you need to contact me. '''

Hi. For those of you who have noticed me around the Baccano! Wiki... well, I'm a huge fan of Baccano!, obviously, and I talk about it on agallimaufryofoddments frequently. Like most western fans, I was introduced to the series via the anime. I've been involved with Baccano! for many years now, and can safely say that I'm more invested in the light novels these days.

As of 10 January 2016 I was elevated to admin/bureaucrat status by Farewellfire (Publicdomain). I appreciate the gesture and hope to continue contributing to this wiki with detailed and useful edits.

As of 24 April 2017 (give or take a day) I became a moderator of r/Baccano over on Reddit.

Note: As of July 2016, I have founded a wiki for Etsusa Bridge, and for Vamp!, two light novel series that are also by Ryohgo Narita (and are set in the Naritaverse). Please consider contributing to them as well if you are familiar with the series.

Favorite Baccano! characters, you ask? I hate ranking favorites, but if you pressed me for a top three I'd have to go with Maiza, Elmer, and Keith. I want to emphasize that I love the entire cast, but I guess some others that I'm especially fond of include: Tick, Nile, Upham, Angelo, The Poet, Begg, Carla, Ronny Schiatto, Nick, Elean... No, I'm sorry, I'll end up listing them all at this rate.
