Re: Introduce yourself!! :-)
 

Thank you! I'm not sure it is rare.. I doubt many people take the time to install a custom blog rather then use myspace or similar service.

I started it to try to get my wife a little more into computers and it worked fabulously for that process! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Plus it is great to have a journal of everything, easy to share tge latest pics with family.

I work with the web all day so I felt guilty it took me this long to have a blog.

Any ways. Good luck with your Dwarf Fortress. I'm hoping I can avoid downloading it for a while.

Dominoins.... I'm so anxious to play GOD!

Oh I see. Very good blog btw!
You must try Dwarf Fortress when you gonna have a little freetime. It is a masterpiece, just like Dominions.
It is also extremely addictive. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif

We have a four month-old and and a 2 year-old. It gets more fun every day http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

DominionsFAN, we keep a site of family pics too. Our parents live 3+ hours away and we have family on both US coasts, so it is easier.

45 y/o Male Married 2 Kids (12 & 6, late start due to gaming a lot and dating too little)

Born and Raised in Minnesnowta - F.Y.I. Minnesota is coldest State outside of Alaska, Some mountain peaks in Maine and along Nortern Rockys sometimes are colder, but the cold spots in my State are where Towns and Cities are located.

Bought first Wargame - 3rd Reich (AH)at age of 15
Played D&D at age of 16, too many Games of all types followed, and Computer just made list even bigger.
Loved my Amiga (Dungeonmaster and Mechforce) Spent more time playing Civ2, Civ3, Moo, Moo2, SEIV, and EQ than I wish to think about (I coulda been a contenda ...)

Went to college after 3 years being an Airborne Medic in US Army (mostly 82nd Division with time on Smokebomb Hill USAJFKIMA) and then spent 4.67 years getting 1.5 years worth of credits at the local University. (I really learned a lot but not how to get a passing grade) Spent too much time Running a 9 year Rolemaster RPG campaign, driving my drunk friends home, and reading SciFic Books.

Was Advisor for one of local High Scholl's Games Club, I have friend I met when they were freshman who have larger families and better jobs than me now. You really get to know the people you Roleplay with over the years. Seeing them grow up (while I did my Peter Pan thing) was one of coolest things so far in my life; helping and watching my own kids grow up (so far) is first. Some day when I grow up I want to write MY great Novel(s) but that not gonna happen unless I put more time away not doing games <maybe I'll continue tomorrow>
My son has promise to not to become a geek like his dad, but my 6 y/o daughter and I play WoW and Magic CCG when her work is done and she's actually asked to try to play SE:IV once already. (She's doomed too).
Now that I think I should be writting MY book(s) I find yet another Game that has my pavlovian bell a'ringing. So Here I await the Comming of Dom3. Whats unfair is that Dom3 and SE5 are coming out soooo close to each other, that is a bummer. I've never played DomII but it looks similar to a stack of notes I have on one of the games I thought I'd develop (HA!) some years ago. Gonna make those games right after I write my Novels, eh ??

Non-gaming interests: Astronomy, Astronomy, Bugging my wonderful Wife, Astronomy, Vikings Football (American NFL Football), History, Sneak in Game stuff, Reading Sci Fic and Fantasy, Astronomy, Family, and Astronomy (without quite so much Spam in it).

Hey, we could always use some more geekets. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif
That is (obviously) the biggest shortcoming in our legions right now http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: Introduce yourself!! :-)
 

We have two girls. I have passed the geek gene on, even if it is dormant with a second X chromosome.

Re: Introduce yourself!! :-)
 

6 years old and shes playing WoW already? Holy jeebus! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif
