Ben "Day" Hamill lives in Texas where he enjoys MUSHing, playing Guild Wars and watching roughly one hour of television each week. You get three guesses as to which hour.

Occasionally, Ben spends time viewing various things on DVD. Primarily these things are episodes from the various series of Star Trek, the occasional anime and the series Firefly. In his opinion, these things don't quite count as watching television as, "it's the ads that really rot the brain. You can choose not to watch a bad show, but bad ads could be in any show, no matter how good." Most recently, he's been getting season one of Lost from NetFlix.

Currently, Ben lives with his girlfriend of 6 years, Sara, with whom he has started to discuss the details of an engadgement and wedding. Most plans regarding these events are very preliminary.

Ben is a Bachelor of the Arts in Linguistics from the University of Texas at Austin. This is noteworthy because, apparently unbeknownst to UT, Linguistics is a science. While there, Ben was a member of the Longhorn Band in which he played the Trombone.

Ben has been a member of the Battlestar Wiki since 29 August, 2005. Users who sign talk page posts, but have empty user pages irk Ben because they trigger his broken link sense needlessly.

Ben owns a Mac (G4 Cube) named Melchior, a PC (Dell Dimension 4700) named Prometheus and an XBox with no name.

Ben's favorite time is 11:11.

A Note on Images[edit]

I try to use the following format for naming image files I upload. This is mostly for my own reference, though if someone wants to use this sytem, too, they're welcome to. The reason I like to include episode names is so that, when I see a picture, I might have a better idea of the context if I knew what else had been going on at the time.

Episode_Name-Content.ext (ex: Image:Kobols Last Gleaming pt2-Gaeta.jpg, Image:Tigh Me Up Tigh Me Down-Baltar Six.jpg, Image:Mini-Billy.jpg, etc.)
