The Story of Me, Within Powder Toy.
It started along time ago, probley when i was 7 when this game, magiclly appeared in a school folder at my school. I played it, blew some stuff up and fell in love. I played it at school until around 2009, when i got it on my computer, and boy how much time i spent on it. 2 Hours a day, 7 days a week for like a Year, Until i joined the Forums in Augest, 2010. I lied about my age, as i was embarresed to be 10 years old. https://powdertoy.co.uk/Discussions/Thread/View.html?Thread=695&PageNum=29#Message=138558 I was a noob, as everyone was when they started something new. It was funny looking back at all these posts i made, Lol. Since then i have made 1028 Posts, and 94 threads, Wow. I have a -1 Reputation, Lol. Ive made 68 saves at home, and probley thousends at school. I'am now 12, Year 7 and studing in High School. Alot has changed. I hate seeing new people embarrsing them self, like i used to, cause its just funny. But then you get all time noobs, they wont change, and they think there fine. Advice to all new members is search for a thread before you post, go through Wiki's and FAQ's. Best Advice.Post your Powder Toy storys below ;D

Hmm.. I guess, I stumbled on PT when playing PG, and tested, saw how much better it was. It was an old version, though. I didn't know about the new one. Then, one day, after a drive reformat, I wanted to get it again, googled, found this site, downloaded, opened...
HOLY MOTHER OF GAMES

The thread will be necro'd in a short while.
I once played Powder Game. Came looking for an alternative, I had heard of wxSand before, etc.
Then I saw The Powder Toy. The complex electronics. The awesome speed. The unlimited(=235008) particles.
And that's how Equestria was made.
>edit: Oh, and the date was around July 2010, if you wanna know. -
Well, I found TPT v28 on my school computers (in August 2010 I think), and I saw more potential in it than blowing up C4, so after a week or so, I got it at home too, playing a few minutes a day until I fully understood the game. Then, I made a few saves and created an account (on February 2nd 2011) so I could share them with everyone, and I'm here ever since. :)

I saw powder toy for the first time, joined and made a save on the same day a few months ago. I decided I liked it and stuck around :D

I started playing tpt in March of 2011. I was 12, at the time and learned about it from a couple of friends. We were at our state science olympiad competition and one of them brought his laptop. He got on tpt, and showed me some stuff, and I decided to get it myself. I had already played that one dust game (can't remember its real name) so I thought it wouldn't be too hard to make something. I was wrong. It took me 2 weeks to make an EXTREMELY noobish flamethrower. After that, I looked at other people's saves, and had inspiration for some other stuff (still noobish). I thought they were great at the time, so I continued to make more. I've came a long way in the year that I've been using tpt and learned a lot because of it. I remember how excited i was when I got my first fp. If I tried to understand how some of the stuff that I've made now back when I first started out, I'd probably think that they were made by some crazy smart, very technical person. I'm still learning more abt things that I can make.

At school I saw some people playing powder toy. I really liked the look of the game and I started playing it along with some friends (At the end of year 7). I think it was in the summer holidays when I created my account). The first save I published was probably my theme park or weather box, but since I deleted my weather box I don't know now. I didn't play much powder toy then, but then in October year 8, I started to play more hardcore, alot more often, and I got my first frontpage: Nuclear Reactor. Later, in November, I created my most succesful save: Modern City V1. Then in December I experimented with electronics and started a some projects on elctronic games. I learnt alot from powder toy mostly with my current project: I learnt lots about Binary. I haven't been too active in the game recently though :( Im very busy.

My cousin showed me dan-ball one day and i loved it, i continued playing it for a while and then i searched for a newer version + the forums, i came across this site and have played TPT ever since (the start of 2010 when i started playing).
