That's awesome that your wife plays GTA and Hitman. :P Does she have a sister?

She does, actually-but her sister is married with 2 kids, and one on the way...

You ought to move to Utah though-I work from home, and the company I work for is like 80% women-and probably 50% of those are stewardesses

Are stewardesses more likely to be gamers than the average woman? This computer addict needs to know. :P

I drove through Utah once, I thought I was in Sweden, and I didn't stop drooling until we reached New Mexico.

Well, they're more likely to want to travel, and while they're gone, you can get in some important game-time

But I don't want them to just go away so I can game - I have that part well covered already.


What I want, is a wonderful lady to tank while I spank..... to snipe while I sweep..... to plot while I scheme. I want a life partner, AND a virtual life partner.

A woman like that is like a low paying job. When you're unemployed all you can think about is a job so you can get some money. But when you have a low paying job all you can think about is quitting or getting a better job.

Wait 20 years or so and you can probably buy one-a virtual life partner, that is.

After all, 20 years ago, I was playing Atari...

Every game exists positioned on various sliding scales. There are games for every player, and players for every game. But no game will ever satisfy all players.

Personally I think that Mount and Blade sounds like something I would enjoy, for the very reasons that some others dont like it.
