I like voting! It's all that Civic Duty and defend the Constitution train of thought. ;)

Yes, I serve currently in the US Army. I served in Desert Storm 90-91. Did one tour in Afghanistan 2011-12. Scheduled to go back to Afghanistan in May 2014.

Re: winSPMBT fans: who are you?
 

Infantryman in the US Army. Five years active duty (thank you, Stop-Loss), two reserves. Came in as an E-nothing private in '04, ETS'ed as a sergeant in '11. Stayed in 4ID my whole active duty stint. Stayed a dismount through my first tour in Baghdad, then they made me a M2A3 gunner, and as soon as I was done training volunteered for a PSD company. Ferried the brass around town my second tour, again in Baghdad. Got out May of '09, went to the police academy, been a cop since January '10. Life is good, but it will be even better if I can ever get picked up by the refinery :smirk:

Re: winSPMBT fans: who are you?
 

Thank you all for your relatively important participation :)

At this time, I would sum up the results this way:

Please keep voting to confirm (or not) this trend.

Re: winSPMBT fans: who are you?
 

Well, what it tells you is 28 people told you how old they are and 31 told you how long they have been playing and that ( at this time ) 10x more people have viewed the thread than filled it out. We know how many people have bought the game and how many have downloaded it and I only DREAM that 71-74%. of the people who play it, owned it.:)

Re: winSPMBT fans: who are you?
 

Yes Don, you are right to point this out.

Of course this is only a poll with its limitations, especially on a forum ie:
- not significative (I know that 28 voters are far not enough to be representative of a population)
- not necessarily reflecting the reality

Oh well, maybe I should have not run this poll.

Re: winSPMBT fans: who are you?
 

I am 26.

People on the forums are certainly more involved in the game than people who are not, so it's no surprise there is a high percentage of people who bought the game in the poll...
I did not buy the game, honestly when I started playing I was in the army and had very little cash for pleasures, and now I am married and struggling with paying rent and for food. But one day...One day I promise I will give you guys the thanks you deserve for all this amazing work.

I only started playing a few years ago, and accelerated my time spent playing since I was conscripted and even more so after my discharge- which brings me to my military background(some of you probably know most of this):
I was conscripted in 8/2005 into the IDF, spent a year in the Signals Corps and than asked to transfer to the Armored Corps. Was sent straight to tank commander training after finishing my training as a tank gunner. The rest of my service was spent as a squad leader/tank commander in the 460th Brigade a.k.a armor school as well as a tank commander inthe 77th Battalion/7th Brigade. As a result of my strange "career" path I am qualified as a Field Radio Operator, Squad Leader(support units), Tank Driver, Tank Gunner, and Tank Commander. All my tank training and operations were on the Merkava Mk2b. After my discharge from regular service I was somehow and against my wishes sent back to the signals corps for reserve service, and currently my official posting is as Platoon Sgt for Signals platoon of a reserve tank battalion. My rank is Sgt 1st Class, but don't be too impressed as the IDF gives this rank to most guys eventually(in reserves). I did get mine very quickly however(I think there was some computer error).

Hello,

I'm 58, I am retired and I play Spww2 since the French magazine Cyberstratège (sadly defunct) presented the mod that needed to have the original game SP2 or SP3.
I also tried Spw@w but I prefer Winspww2.
I play more Winspww2 than WinSPMBT because I prefer the period of the Second World War.
I have the free versions of these games.
I appreciate the follow-up of these mods, pledge their perenity.

Have fun with it.

Yves

Bonjour,

J'ai 58 ans, je suis retraité et je joue à Spww2 depuis que la revue française Cyberstratège (hélas disparue) a présenté le mod qui nécessitait de posséder le jeu original SP2 ou SP3.
J'ai également essayé Spw@w mais je préfère Winspww2.
Je joue plus à Winspww2 qu'à Winspmbt car je préfère la période de la seconde guerre mondiale.
Je dispose des versions gratuites de ces jeux.
J'apprécie le suivi de ces mods, gage de leur pérénité.

Bon jeu à tous.

Re: winSPMBT fans: who are you?
 

Story of every conscript's life actually brother. Your own wish is insignificant most of the time.

Re: winSPMBT fans: who are you?
 

No....... it's always interesting to see who is playing the game but it must be taken into account that the only people who fill things like this out are the ones that bother to take the time and the vast majority who log on can't be bothered which skews the results.
