Hi, I'm Alex and I love evolution and zoology. I am studying Zoology at university in September. My favourite animals are ants. What about you?

Hey Alex, I'm Atrox! Welcome to the forum! I don't really have a favorite animal. However, I do tend to become slightly obsessed with a certain group of animals and tend to research the hell out of them for a good week or two before my interests change again. As of late I've been fascinated unicellular organisms. I could tell you that my favorite protozoan is Lacrymaria Olor on account of it's shape and the way it finds its food

Hi Alex, I'm The_Wayward_Admiral. People just sort of call me Wayward, or Admiral, or That Disco Guy.
I like Pangolins, and nautili. Ants are definitely my favorite insect.

Fairly sure it's a self proclaimed title...

Ants are awesome. In general I find the concept of Eusociality very interesting. Welcome to the forums!

Yeah I like the neck a lot. I'm hoping we'll be able to have more dynamic shapes for our microbes in the future. I'm pretty sure I remember a prototype cell editor that allowed us to edit vertices of a shape. The vertices were meant to represent the cytoskeleton and it allowed for much more variety with the design of our microbes. I like the hexes, but I'm always going to vouch for a bit more freedom of design. Though it's highly unlikely, small part of me is hoping the vertices will make a return in the future.
