[edit] Early Years

Connor first showed an interest in computers when his parents bought, back then, a top-of-the-line Packard Bell computer in 1996. At that time, all he did was play child games, but it helped develop his interest in computers.

In 2002, Connor started programing on computers at the age of 10. His first language that he learned was HTML, which was the book he received at age 8. Within a matter of months, he had learned most of the language and had created several, hard coded websites. He has always been telling that he's able to code websites, though his only knowledge in HTML was how to make a bold text. Very sad that is, to look at a child telling lies to himself.

[edit] Later Interests

Connor's interests where later increased when he started to learn PHP at the age of 12 (2004). Once he advanced in this language, he wanted to learn how to make games. Then, in November of 2004, Connor found the program called Game Maker by Mark Overmars. Connor started to make basic games in GameMaker (GM), and then joined its community (the GMC) in March of 2005. have always been bragging about things he can't do, doesn't own or are just impossible.
