Dragon205: mah zeh thava? Army? I'm not Israeli, I'm Canadian, so I did not have any legal reason to be in the Tza'hal. I was there for the summer with my high school in 1982, and we spent a couple of weeks in Gadna.

Yes, there are some teens on the board - and I believe there were more when the game was fresher - it's even posible that some of us *were* teens when the game was fresher [img]smile.gif[/img] !

PS - Ani loh midabehr Eevrit. Ani yodeah "mah shlomch," zeh hakohl! Haiti b'beit sepher Eevrit sh'haiti yelled katahn. Shachachti et hakohl! Ha'Anglit shelcha kohlkach tov shel ha'Eevrit sheli!

PPS - to all others - we're not telling secrets! I'm just showing off the very very little and poor Hebrew that I know (and I use the word in the loosest posible sense!)

PPPS - I *think* I wrote: "I don't speak Hebrew. I know 'how are you' little else! I was in hebrew school when I was a little boy, but I forgot everything! Your english is way better than my hebrew."

We've had players/posters from all ages - some younger than you, dragon2005, and some older. That's pretty normal for here.

first off...... congrats on the lawyership bsftcs.... do not believe I had done that as of yet... last I heard you were still trying to pass your bar?

hum moving right along.... yea I am a teenager still playing this game.... although there are better games out there... I still enjoy this classic... but I think I will be like the older members of this forum.... I will continue to play these great games as I age.... maybe even when I'm in a nursing home!... hahaz...

USN, currently assigned to the US Naval Academy (which affords me the time to drink and play games for a couple years still).

To add fuel to the fire, I'm 38 and I still play computer games... quite a lot, actually. Perhaps I'd better slow down [img]smile.gif[/img]

And to put things in perspective, Felix is now playing while leaving the military [img]smile.gif[/img] His long career in the military is officially ending January 1, IIRC, and he's started the delisting process (as opposed to enlisting).

And finally, one of the nice things about this board is that we have so many people from different places. I know that bsftcs speaks English far better than I do Danish, that dragon2005 speaks English far better than I do Hebrew, and that Radek speaks English far better than I do... Czech, I believe. I'll even give jsalsb the advantage in English over my French, though French is my second language. I'm too rusty

Bottom line, we've got people here from all over the world, and we all know it. So no one gets on anyone else's case about grammar and stuff like that. Except on the General Discussions board, and there, it's usually friendly.

Actually, my french sucks. It's quite embarrassing really. I was born in Montreal, lived most of my life here, yet can barely carry on a decent conversation in the primary local language. I usually just lie and say I'm from NYC (I spent a lot of time when I was young in Manhattan, so I can fake that one pretty well [img]smile.gif[/img] )

...And I think, if I'm not mistaken, that So So is either from China (or Hong Kong or Taiwan, etc.) or at least is of Chinese heritage.

I speak two words in Chinese, and I don't know which one is which [img]smile.gif[/img] I saw that Rusty is from Zimbabwe, too... we are definitely a multi-country group around here!
