RL Question: How old are you & What do you do

[Cosmic_Fist]

I'm 27, working part-time in shipping while studying Cisco networking.

 

[Rameau's Nephew]

28. Attorney & Federal Bureaucrat. Live in VA, work in DC. Started with Civ 1 when I was in 7th grade.

28 - I work for an investment management company and do employer retirement plans.

My first Civ experience was back on Nintendo - I took a break until Civ III came out and have been playing since.

 

[opus95]

I'm 57, and I'm a symphony orchestra 'cellist, and amateur historian.

 

[rambo1717]

I'm 34 and a CPA in Alabama. Don't post much but I've really enjoyed this forum. I got into the game with Civ II, took a break on CIV III ( burnout from too many late nights) and picked it up again with Civ IV.

63. I'm an attorney who has been playing since Civ I. Best game of many I have tried over the years.

You should set up another poll to see where people are from. This game has a world-wide following.

I'm 27 and I'm a Civ IV Beyond the Sword player, but in my spare time I'm the operations co-ordinator at an export company.

 

[Nick53]

Im 15 and in training to become a Comercial Pilot, although at the moment I can only go for a PPL (Private Pilots Licence) also doing Year 13 (last year of school) Calculus and Physics

I am a bit suprised that people older than me still play civ4

Holy thread revival! Well since it's here anyway and it was posted before my time:

I recently (august) made it into the 25 age bracket. I'm an MBA student graduating next may...I also work part time at the same university...I'm applying to doctoral programs and will take a crack at CMA (certified managerial accountant) certification next summer.

Civ seems to draw top-notch RL talent, now that I'm reading back on these some .

Edit: Started Civ II and I was pretty young. I never seriously got into civ until this past January (a lot of "worldbuilder"'s equivalent and chieftain as a youngin' for me...no civ prodigy in this post!), and even now it feels like I've got some catching up to do to be able to hold firm @ deity!

Dang... talk about a bump.

25, almost 26.

Military, I'm in our army.

Well, actually I'm at home since Juli 31, for a couple more months at least, recovering from a bad horse accident and following surgery (still more to do) on my right elbow.

Missed a possible 6 months mission in Lebanon (wasn't sure anyway) and I have to delay my 3-years marshal course (wich is roughly equivalent to a US Warrant Officer I). And that was for sure.

That's what I get for liking horses so much. Oh well, at least I have some free time to play Civ , wich I started playing years ago with Civ 2.

[Gliese 581]

I'm 26 and I want to be a kungfu healer. I probably would have succeeded by now except my dad gave me civ1 back in 1992.

 

[MrWhereItsAt]

Ooh. Neat!

Been playing Civ since I was 11.
