I'm 48, and I'm a general internist.

I also frequent the Apolyton Civilization Forums. It's interesting to note that the members of this forum tend to be older and are more varied in occupation than those at Apolyton.
It's also nice to see another MD on a gaming forum. Now I don't feel so guilty about playing computer games.

good to meet everyone, here goes....

just turned 36, married, having our first child in February (very excited!!) live just outside of Toronto, Canada.

Work as a Project Manager for an IT company, and I keep telling my wife that I need to play 4X games to keep my organizational, planning and management skills sharp

Panzer General, most Avalon Hill games...
Got into computers because of the games!! Starfire was first I think.... Civilization - best game ever, until I played SEIV.....
addicted to GOLF (the real game...not computers) am SOOOOOOO close to breaking 80 for the first time, that I can't stop playing...

cheers guys and girls

golf_prez!

22, within 10 1/2 days of getting married. Graduate student in Florida. Play SEIV to relieve the stress of doing projects. Okay, so I do projects to relieve the stress of playing SEIV. Currently have no life besides SEIV and analyzing Beethoven. Thus, my first attempt at anything approaching a mod.

I'm 20 and live in Australia, born in Hong Kong and spent most of my early years there and also a year in the US. Moved here a few years ago, finished high school and got myself into Uni Last year. Currently in my second year doing a B.E degree on Aeronautical Engineering, I love strategy games, flight simulators and anything to do with planes.

Just turned 31. Live outside of Toronto Canada in a town called bowmanville. I have been playing Strat games for many years ( dad introduced me to MULE,) I returned the favour with Stars. Been playing the SE series since SE III.

For work I work for EDS at GM in Oshawa. Mostly PM work with deploying Web applications and VB apps.

Been reading these Posts for ages and finally decided to start posting. So hello Everyone.
