Re: OT: How old are you ?
I was a member of the kingdom of Ynesfore. I was in it for awhile, mostly because a friend was in it. I was a bit insecure and shy back then and hung around my friend. ALthough I found the whole idea entertaining I didn't get on too well with the others. They had an overly romantic view of the middle ages I thought. I once mentioned the Crusades and Knights fighting Muslims, and their response was along the lines of "Oh we try avoid bits like that". I never did get into fighting (mostly because of the cost of armour), but I do have a shield, and some greaves.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
I wonder if, in say 200 years, people will try to re-create the 'Primitive Computer Age'...(Ooh, look mommy, this one doesn't even have a 3d display!)
As I understand it, groups like the SCA are about the ideals of a period of history, which doesn't always match the reality. This can be a good thing, as long as they don't ignore the reality.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
I'm old enough to know how young I am.

Re: OT: How old are you ?
Welcome to the forums, Lenin! As I'm sure you already know, SEV is due to come out around the end of the year (by current projections, which are almost assuredly false ). Depending on your point of view, you are lucky to be around just as an EVEN MORE ADDICTING game is going to come out
And while I'm at it, now exactly 87 days from being 21...
