Olivia. My friends and workmates call me Liv or Livvie. "Livvie" is spelled like that because one of my friends is dyslexic and writes things like "lovelie" and "saltie". She wrote "Livvie" instead of "Livvy" and it caught on.

10. If you could change one thing on IB Survival, what would it be?

I haven't been around that long, but the first problem I've run into is you have to be "VIP" to download things. I get the admin's point that they don't want people joining just to get notes and whatever, but some people may have joined to get notes that they need right then, and they'd be happy to continue participating even after they get what they need. I'm not sure how you can tell the honest ones from the moochers, though. :)
