Introduce yourself!! :-)

[daesthai]

Horst! Good to hear from ya again!

[atul]

I'm 24 year old grad student / research assistant from Helsinki, currently finishing my master's thesis on the 4th generation nuclear reactors... hopefully I'll be done before Dom3 ships, otherwise solar power becomes economically feasible before I get my degree. ;p

At the mature age of 10, my first RPG was Cyberpunk 2020. And as you can assume from that, 14 years after I'm well adapted and mostly harmless member of the society. I've participated in LARPs more than is good for your health, practiced kendo, capoeira, boxing and currently fencing (foil, probably upgrading to epee in near future). Old nintendo fanboy (I still remember being frustrated when I found out that the manual for my brand new Mario 3 was written in German), nowadays mostly playing PS2 RPGs - if I find time. The computer is mostly used for work, communication and Dominions series.

...and considering the amount of Finnish larpers in here, possibly all the talk will end when we'll see who can walk the walk in the fighting area of this summer's Ropecon.

[PashaDawg]

I am a 38 y.o. lawyer in Portland, Maine, where I mostly help my clients either with bankruptcy matters or estate planning. (Fun, fun, fun!)

Gosh! My core recreations have not changed much since I was a geeky, pimple-faced boy: Games, theater, music, and piano. (There are some new things, e.g., I didn't used to like martinis.)

Pictures? Well, you can see me here: http://www.goodtheater.com/shows_californiasuite.html (I am the actor sticking his tongue out and also in the yellow/blue tennis outfit.) Fun fact: The actress in the gown was the cartoon voice for the chick in the original Aeon Flux cartoon.

Howdy all, I'm Naked_Lunch from the strategy gaming fansite TCancer. I'm a big ol' fan of Dominions and strategy games (especially those darned Shrapnel games ). Anyways, I'm a pretty laidback cool guy, though I'm known to get into rather passionate discussions when it comes to strategy games and roleplaying games, which are really the only things I play. As far as strategy games go, my favorite(s) are probably the Dominions games; Kohan; X-Com; Europa 1400: The Guild; all the EU engine games (Europa Universalis, Hearts of Iron etc); Combat Mission series and a buncha other stuff that would take several long-winded paragraphs to list. Cheers!

I'm Jason, a.k.a. baby arm. I spend most of my time planning Naked Lunch's death.

YOU'RE SICK, MAN! YOU'RE SICK! IWW!! GROSS

17 years old in Gilbert, Arizona. Been with Dominions less than a year before Dom2 was released. I'm a composer/sound designer who has yet to get a real job in the field, but I did make some good $400 selling music CDs and I plan to do it again this year and make even more. Been gaming since the NES.

Actually, I think the comparison was more on the lines of "occassionally I have to spend ridiculous amounts of money for the well-being or enjoyment of these strange creatures". I don't think it is sick. It's interesting what peoples' reactions to various things tell, but then again, this thread was about introducing oneself.

[DominionsFan]

Yeah please, dont make rude comments like that Argitoth. Anyways I dont see any problems with a person who has 2 cats. What was your point?

[Argitoth]

woah, what? how would you react to "single, though 2 prostitutes"?

it's a joke.

That's some weird slang.
