F? WE of General Discussion LOVE long threads! Sheesh...I've seen em as long as 1000 posts! Of course we split the threads. When this one gets several pages longer we start FEMALE GAMERS Pt 2
Post away! Reply away! LIVE FOR THE MOMENT..er..forgive me, I just had an incredibly tiring 5 hours of work hearding kids aged 9-17ish through their paces in Russian and running logistics from who was judging where, getting the kids to actually go where they were supposed to, calming irritable teachers, inputting the scores into my Excel files, answering reporter's questions (national contest, this is our State finals-150 kids) and hauling all the stuff back to my office....all with one 15 minute bathroom/lunch break....and am finally back at my desk and feeling sooooo relieved!

It is in the most famous "story" in the most famous book - one you probably know much better than I do ? Okay, some more info on me: I am - mostly - male, 29, German, single, an especially lazy university student, a passionate debater, with, sometimes, a nasty tendency to lecture or psychologize - so be warned ! - and a perfectionist. They only CRPG I have ever played are BGI/TotSC and BG II, I am currently replaying BG I to check out the unofficial expansion Dark Side of the Swordcoast. The only fantasy literature I have ever read are the works of Tolkien (not counting the huge book by Marion Zimmer Bradley called "The Mists of Avalon" ? - translating from German here - way back ). So - if you still dare, considering the above - I'd be most pleased to get to know you all individually, ladies ! Oh, did I mention did that we are, err, I am slightly schizophrenic, too.

Ramon...ARGH...I was a student of Latin too many yrs ago, and there were a whole lot of Augustus' that may have sprung to mind....and CENSUS did not...do we know how tired I am? Of course, I can't say as I've been to Bethlehem lately, or even at all...sheesh...YOU have to stop baiting a certain Cloud of your acquaintance! It's an unfair advantage...she's old and tired... *sigh, very deep sigh* It's not going to happen, is it? *sigh* You just enjoy it WAY too much!

*sniffle* This must be 'beat up on Cloudy day'.... *pout*

Hi Throg, you wouldnt be one of those Green Martians would you? If so I'm running cause it might be mating season But a Red Martian.....heehee

Actually I'm of the very rare turquoise types. And, although my permanent residence {for tax purposes :^)} is Barsoom, I maintain a summer place in Washington D.C., the Hot Air Capital of the World.

P.S. I also am the Mother of Cats. I wonder whether cats attract lady gamers, or lady gamers attract cats? My two are Devon Rex, sometimes called hairless cats (a base canard!), named Pipistrelle (usually Pip for short) and Pixel (often called Baby-no-no!)

Originally posted by Scronan: Hi Cloudbringer Thanks for the invite! I am a 26 year old male, and having been playing RPG's on computers since 1985, and I actually started playing video games when my Dad bought me "Pong" in the late seventies. Gosh, that's a long time! We do have a lot of female gamers over on the WW board....I think its great! I rarely meet female gamers around here. You know its funny, a few weeks ago I went to a Street Fighter tournament, talk about nothing but guys, but there was one young lady playing, and she was really good! I was surprised to see a female playing fighting games, she's one the first I've ever seen! BTW, I live in California, and on that note, I rarely see anyone on the forum from CA...any other Californians out there? Best, Scronan

HI! Glad to see you back here...wander into GD occasionally, ok? Just for the fun of it! It's my goal to see us all mingle a bit. ONE big community. Then we'd know there were lots of women playing the games and and I can tell you there are others from California. Turbovee, for one. Oh and I think I misspelled your name in that post, didn't I? argh...sorry! Was in a hurry last night!

Anyway. thought I would strike a blow for the men and the Aussies. Let's see, 37, do my own ironing (grrr - hate that every morning), and there are not enough hours in the day that aren't spent at work. Nice to see so many of the harem again Sultan Davr

Hullo Davros! Coming my way soon, right? Did you see that url I left ..someplace...I've forgotten which thread! I can dig it up again if needs be..it was a virtual tour of Manhattan.

Hail and well met, fellow ownee of cats! Hahaha..we all know THEY own us, right?! I had my cats long before I started crpgs...does that mean cat ownership predisposes us to gaming?

Because I am soooo nice really I am going to save CloudyB some effort, (and because the rain has stopped!! )

I am 21, male and from the U.K. (currently looking to escape to anywhere better, USA or Canada preferably). I have been roleplaying on and off in various forms for a little over tens years.

Sorry about my alignment shift this A.M. CB, its my boss she's brings out the wost in me. Tomorrow if she's mean again, I gonna run through the managers with easily concealable broadsword.
