Hello,
My name is Brad and I 50 and really happy I found you guys. I started playing games in Northern California at Chico State university before there were CRT terminals. All of our game output was on teletype paper LOL... needless to say we burned through many reams of paper playing a basic 4 person Trek game. Shortly afterward I broke in my first Commodore 64 and have been hooked ever since.
What games are you currently play/looking to play with TOG?
I am currently playing several games including Evony, Fallout 3, Warcraft, COD4, Gears of War 2, Eve-online, Sins of a Solar Empire and soon the new Stargate MMO as well as Jumpgate Evolution.
What was the first gaming console you own or pen and paper game you played?
The first multi player game I ever played was a PBM (play by mail) in the early 80s called StarMaster by Schubel & Sons. I have probably owned every console made but my first would probably be pong. Because of my computer experience and background my preferences lean toward PC games instead of console games. I guess it depends on the mood Im in.
Why do you want to join TOG?
I enjoy gaming a great deal and have been hard pressed to find other players my age or that are more mature that I can hook up with.
Tell us about yourself or anything else you'd like to share.
Im a father of 2 and have been married for 15 years. I have been a pilot for 25 years most of which is professional. I now fly for fun as I hate to be away from the family. I currently am self employed as a freelance Database Designer and Business Analyst. My work gives me lots of play time so I am happy. I also enjoy flying PPG (Powered Paragliders) and Sky Diving on occasion. Even though I was in the Aviation industry I still enjoy traveling to other countries (as long as its not work related).
Anyways, thats me in a nut shell. Im looking forward to seeing you guys online.
Brad
