Born in 1969, making me 34. I always feel like I'm older than the other users until someone mentions its their 50th birthday or something.

EDIT: Oops, forgot to put the F_4 in the title. Cracker, could you fix or better yet move all the F_4s to a subthread?

Problem fixed. My first use of my mod powers and it was for a good cause.

I'm soon 23. The way I write makes me look way younger I think.

I'm 30 (-not-something), so where do I fit in?
I see that I tend to fall outside the polls here...
Nm, I would have voted for drinker anyway

I won't tell. I'm older than Capt Buttkick but younger than Space Oddity, how old am I? Wait! Please don't answer that.

Wow, so far I the old guy on this post (and feeling older every day with a 16 month old son!!). Born in 1955 (for those bad at math, I'll be 48 in December)



Note: Last time I checked, because of a date error in the forum database, all birthdays before December 31, 1969 were reset to that date. Has that been fixed?

I have you beat, denyd. I am 59. And yes, I am still tough enough to wallop the Zulus in this GOTM.

My 3 boys are grown and all of them played at least one of the versions of Civ.

I was a fan of Buddy Holly before he was killed, and I was at University when the Beatles hit the top twenty and JFK was assasinated. That makes me feel very old!

Nice to finally see Cracker responding to one of these personality threads, even if his answer was as usual, indirect.

I thought that all you had to do was look at someones profile to know how old they are but just noticed that zagnut is about the same age as me and when I looked at his profile it said born 31 Dec 1969. When I registered I put my birthday in as well and it said 31 Dec 1969 when you check my profile. If I try to correct my profile it has my correct birthday.

I was born the day the 505th Airborne Infantry regiment captured the bridge in Nijmegen, Holand during WWII.

I have a 30 year old daughter who has been playing Civ since it came out.

zagnut, you may be tough enough to beat the Zulus but all I did was pay them lots of tribute. Maybe Gotm21 will be different, I'll have some time to hone my skills.

I think I out-age you guys by a year or two then I had already visited a few air-raid shelters by 1944.

Anyway, I chickened out and played Conquest this, first, time around, and my Zulus are giving me no pain.
