    Who is the Oldest Here?

    I know a majority of us are between 20 and 40, but I was wondering if we have any real old timers here?

    So who's the oldest forum user here?

    And who's the oldest supporting member here?

    Please be honest, because 300 years old doesn't fly in the real world.

    Oh, and questions for the oldest of the two above questions:

    1) How do you feel about your age?

    2) What do you think of us younger gamers?

    3) What was the first game you played?

    4) How did you come to know and be a part of Tactical Gamer?

    Re: Who is the Oldest Here?

    Turned 40 a couple days ago.

    1) How do you feel about your age?
    The age doesn't bother me. It is the realization of a limited amount of time left with my kids that sucks.

    2) What do you think of us younger gamers?
    Ehh, generally more informed about the world than when I was young. But youth is wasted on the young.

    3) What was the first game you played?
    Had to be space invaders at a TG&Y in okc. First console game I ever played was some mattel pong thing. First real console game was Circus for the atari 2600. First computer game was crush crumble and chomp on the C=64.

    4) How did you come to know and be a part of Tactical Gamer?

    You guys need to speak with Barnaby. He admits to 64 and Kin is a pup at 62.

    LOL...
    Actually Randy was just poking fun... Im 37 rounding the corner to 38. And like El_Gringo_Grande the first game I played was Asteroids, but it wasnt at TG&Y, I remember the store well though, as Im an OKIE too.

    So true...

    I found PR in .6 and found TG quickly there after. My first round I had this SL that was patient with me explaining how to use the shovel and all that, he communicated well and from that point on I saw no reason to play on any other server. That SL became a freind of mine.. His name is Disposible, and he is a world class Command Truck flipper. Hes even older than me.
