About Me
- Mason
- I am a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at UCLA. Previously, I was Professor of Nonlinear and Complex Systems in the Mathematical Institute at University of Oxford. I was also a Tutorial Fellow in Somerville College. I am also a die-hard fan of the Los Angeles Dodgers. See my website for more information about me. You can also find me on Facebook and Twitter (@masonporter), though I'm much easier to stalk by other means. If you want power law or Zachary Karate Club swag, take a look at my Power Law Shop. I am also involved with the Legends of Caltech movie and co-edited Legends of Caltech III.

this is a saving throw i usually made as i liked playing sheister characters so usually chose int, dex, cha as my three princple attributes, in some order. when they introduced the skills, i always got 'fast talking'.
i just wish i could fast talk my way through this dphil thing as i think IRL i have a better chance of saving vs. cha than int :(
Sometimes I have high-charisma characters. Other times, not so much.
I do have a marked tendency to play CN characters more often than any other alignment.
CN is certainly the most fun. i'm probably closer to CG IRL
I am NN (with lawful tendencies) or maybe even LN in real life.
