I think I rank in the younger variant, I turned 15 in september. Now, can anyone here beat me? And if you guys care to divulge your age we could figure out who the oldest person here is too!

Jokes aside, have fun and listen to your parents. Cheers.

I can safely say No to all of them, Im Uk see. We play "Soccer" not Football, Hockey is not popular, We tend not to have land mowers that can be ridden, never fought over a babe and the light is on at the moment .

I thought it was called "footie". Last time I was in London I stayed at a mates place in Perivale and all the lawns were bricked over! Ok, do you hate Renaults? You must love pints even now given the binge drinking reputation the UK enjoys. You sound alright.

Status: offline 		ok, so 58 is the max, and 14 is the youngest. Well little joe, you got me beat! And as for the date, I 'm the kind of guy who has tons of "girl friends" that always hang around him, but for some reason never wanna go out with him!! And amazingly I'm relatively atheltic!

ps: The only reason I found about matrix games was with Korsun Pocket, in the stores. If you wish to atract new gamers, dont forfeit the store market, they're the only way you'll survive on the long run.

Lessee at 15, I was pouring over a rule book for Advanced Third Reich by Avalon Hill. Wasn't so hot at talking to young babes at that age, settled for long hours with friends over the dining room table, with counters everywhere....can anyone relate?

THAT DAMNED CAT. By the way, I'd like to take this time to thank my parents who for years were relegated to eating on tv tables in front of the tv and not having anyone over for dinner, since the table was the command post for yours truly.

BRP's, charts, tables, counters, maps that took up a room. Rulebooks the size of phone books. I think it made good preparation for a career in law, those rulebooks. I recall one friendly game of Axis and Allies coming to blows and thrown chocolate milk over some misinterpreted sub rules.

Between that and hockey, who could honestly accuse me of being a geek? Or of having no social life? Pah.
