Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

well age hmm
ok im 38

course i,ve been playing stratgy games since i was 14 problem was i could never beat my father
i prefer space or magic or psionic theme unfortunatly for the marketers i severly dislike playiing historical strategy something about ding whats been done over and over and over sorta like math class spending 2 weeks on the same frikking type of equations sheesh 2 days was enough move on
but any way bad problem that i truly wish i could fix the one man who could beat me at chess consistently (try 3 months straight every day) was my father said he used to play for money when he was young always a fast move drove me nuts smartest man i ever knew and yet he did dumbst thing and didnt get a skin cancer lesion burned off and it got into his system then kept not going to doctor and it finally killed him
ah well next time he'll listen to the wife stubborn hard headed
course now i cant ever get good enough to beat him

Happy birthday, young'un!

And I guess while I'm at it, might as well say my own age bumps to 20 in six days...

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

Happy Birthday Ragnarok . Why don't you swing over to the Bar & Grill. I am hosting a celebration with lots of FREE BOOZE. Since the Bar is not in the USA or even on Earth, the Drinking age is Much Lower. If you want something non alcoholic, I think I have some synthAle, the Frengi favorite Root Beer, or the Klingon favorite Prune Juice !!

As far as My Age. Well I remember helping to program and play a SE4 type game that ran in the 256 Bytes of memory of an ALTAIR PC.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">The majority of people that I know, even in person think of me being in my 20s. I tell them my true age and they are extremely shocked. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Happy birthday you Old Snake, may all your fleets burn in the firey breath of the nearest star, may you enjoy aging with calmness and serenity http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif Oh, and don't worry about the greyness showing up on your top knot.

Enjoy you special day. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I am 12 x 4 - 10 + 2 - 4.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

wow, its probably been a year since i've posted in here. i'd have to read back to my last post to check on how old i am, but its probably easier to count back from '78.

if i'd just respected that law about the legal drinking age, i wouldnt be having this problem now.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

I'm still only 29 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

I'm a quarter of a century old.

Boy, that sounds old, doesn't it? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

Really http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif. I assumed you were a Teenager. Makes me feel not so old. If you must know I am 962,478,720. Give or take a day http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

In octal I'm 34.

Wait, that sounds wayyy older than I really am.

okay so in hexadecimal I'm 1C.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

I never figured out why 'grow up' had to mean 'act boring'. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

The grow up just acts as silly as the teenager, who is about as serious as a child; you are just slightly more discreet about it as you get older.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

I'm 28 and working as a (self-employed) GIS engineer/cartographer.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

Time again for my annual post in this thread - the cake means I've turned 26 today.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

Perhaps a rather strange day to edit posts, but.....

Btw, 14 going on 15. I know, I'm too young to post here.

For the sake of your (or at least Ashton's) mental well-being, add 10 years to my current age.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

My age is the molecular weight of sodium hydroxide minus the spin multiplicity of hexaamminecobalt(III) ion (low-spin, strong field =&gt; diamagnetic complex) times the number of "common" amino acids. To this add the number of alfa and beta chains in Hemoglobin plus the number of phosphate goups in ATP.

How hard can it be? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

(40-1x20+4+3=27)

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

I'm old enough to touch the ground, and young enough to avoid it when necessary. (If you can figure out what this means then you are far wiser than I.) http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

i'm 10110 years old. yes... it's binary.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

Is it sad that I immediately translated the binary to 22, and that I only had to think of what everything added together, and whether the spin of hexaamminecobalt(III) was positive or negative? I honestly don't know why I still remember the rest of the stuff... I can understand the binary, since that's kind of what I do, but I haven't touched Bio or Chem in years (well, five)...

And to toss mine in, this summer will be #21. The night before my birthday should be... interesting. Good thing I don't get hangovers.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

If it is sad, then i'm just as sad, since I translated it straight away as well.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

You forgot one thing... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif If hexaamminecobalt(III) is diamagnetic (as I wrote) all electrons are paired. The spin multiplicity is calculated from unpaired electrons which there are none off, so the spin direction is irrelevant http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

I'm 36 and I'm a network administrator for a federal contracting company (work in DC). I don't normally post here, just lurk. Informative bunch you all are.

Hello, welcome to the forum. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

Yeah, just turned 36, have been away from SEIV for a couple of years. Just lurking usually. Believe my first post was in this thread a millenium ago.

SEIV has always been my favorite game. I am going to start playing again.

Looking at the number of posts I do I dont post enough. I am going to have to follow narf poit chez BOOM lead...he is a great poster...

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

I'm almost 36 (this coming June). I'm currently an out of work IT guy (ie: non-corp, or company), who does IT work on the side as much as I can. This 'free' time allows me to help out my mother (62), who previously had a triple bypass almost 2 years ago (June), and on Dec 24th, she slipped on some ice on the front walkway of the house(of the one day we get snow and ice and such in El Paso for the year), and ended up cracking her knee-cap in half. They wired it back together, so I have to currently drive her too and from rehab 3-4 days a week. This is a very similar routine after her bypass surgery, plus due to bad joints, and bones and such it also makes it difficult for her to drive on a regular basis...so I am the chauffeur of choice. Anyway enough dribble...this of course leave me plenty of time to check email, websurf, play a few games here and there, get hit with sticks in armor, and build wood furniture...

So what does all this mean...I am rip roaring ready to be on the SEV beta test team... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

I was a member of the kingdom of Ynesfore. I was in it for awhile, mostly because a friend was in it. I was a bit insecure and shy back then and hung around my friend. ALthough I found the whole idea entertaining I didn't get on too well with the others. They had an overly romantic view of the middle ages I thought. I once mentioned the Crusades and Knights fighting Muslims, and their response was along the lines of "Oh we try avoid bits like that". I never did get into fighting (mostly because of the cost of armour), but I do have a shield, and some greaves.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
 

I wonder if, in say 200 years, people will try to re-create the 'Primitive Computer Age'...(Ooh, look mommy, this one doesn't even have a 3d display!)

As I understand it, groups like the SCA are about the ideals of a period of history, which doesn't always match the reality. This can be a good thing, as long as they don't ignore the reality.

Welcome to the forums, Lenin! As I'm sure you already know, SEV is due to come out around the end of the year (by current projections, which are almost assuredly false http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif ). Depending on your point of view, you are lucky to be around just as an EVEN MORE ADDICTING game is going to come out http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

And while I'm at it, now exactly 87 days from being 21...
