[PhilD]

French male, 36, working as a researcher/teacher of computer science and mathematics.

I've been into strategy gaming for, well, about 25 years I think. First a little wargaming. Then I caught the RPG virus, and I still have it somehow (that's "old-style" roleplaying, the kind with people sitting around a table telling stories and rolling weird dice). Then ran into computers, and I've been playing computer games for maybe 20 years.

I bought Dom:PPP after seeing some article about it on usenet - probably by Gandalf. It was nice enough, but I didn't play it much. Good enough that I jumped on Dom2 when it was released, and that was certainly the one commercial PC game that I spent the most time, ever - mostly solo, as I'm a very bad MP player (or so it seems). I admit I haven't played Dom2 in quite a while, but I'll be back in when Dom3 releases.

I don't have a picture of myself, but sometimes I look a little like my avatar on this board (though at the moment the hair is shorter, and the beard will be gone in a few days). Oh, and the hair is grayer, too.
