Jumping on the bandwagon:

Hi, I'm 34, portuguese living in Lisboa, Portugal, Europe, World, Universe. Although I have done the odd programming job (Python/C++) I am a research mathematician

Been familiar with computers from the time of the infamous ZX Spectrum - ahh fond memories I have. And the games: Elite, Heavy on the magick, Lords of midnight,

Hey Sorlakind, we're strangely close - I'm 36, French, not exactly a mathematician but close enough (technically my research is computer science, but it's combinatorics and probability most of the time, so heh), and I do have very fond memories of my trusty ZX Spectrum, including Elite and Lords of Midnight (don't know what Heavy on the magic was, though).

So, welcome aboard brother

I made a presentation about ZX Spectrum in my Computing English class.

TIP: Don't use MM as an acronym for Heroes of Might and Magic. There's the Might and Magic RPG games to be confused with.

Hi !
Although im following this Forum since my addiction for Dom2 started (about 6 months ago?) i havent been posting yet.

My name is Torsten (i guess it means the hammer of the god thor), i am 22 and i live near Kaiserslautern, in the beautiful Palatine Forest in southwest-Germany.

Im visiting University currently, studying Economic Informatics Merchant (dont know the correct term in english).
I live in a basement appartment of my parents house with my dog Elvis (6 years old) and my blind cat Felix (about 15years old). I got an older brother (26) who is now a teacher for History and German in Highschool and a younger sister(12).
I like to play chess (elo ~1600), poker with friends and of course computer games. My alltime favourites in no specific order:

-Master of Orion2
-Ansto�3 (a german soccer manager)
-Heroes of Might and Magic 1&3
-Pirates! Gold (for my Commodore 64)
-Diablo2 &AddOn
-Transport Tycoon
-Jagged Alliance
and of course Dominions2 which i first heard about on the Shrapnelgames site. I downloaded the demo and liked it from the beginning very much. But if i hadnt found this forum and especially the IRC chat on gamessurge i wouldnt be playing anymore. Many thanks to all chatters there wo are always very kind and patient with my questions.
Another great passion of me is definately music. Unfortunately i never been able to learn an instrument, but my older brother got some rather successfull history behind with his band. Im much into Metal/Industrial like FearFactory, Nine Inch Nails (my fav), Rammstein, Black Label society etc....

so enough from me, i hope to participate the forum a little more in the future. You can meet any time in the irc chat, so challenge me for a blitz (im an easy prey)

Thanks for reading, see you around

PS: sorry for my english i was kinda lazy to think about right grammar oh and i already pre-ordered dom3 of course

Hi,

I am 49, Australian, currently living in the UK but next month will be moving back to Australia after 10 years away.

I am a keen roleplayer, mainly D&D from when it first came out in the 70's.

Lately I have been playing computer games again, mainly HOMM V and GalCiv 2. I much prefer fantasy and am really hooked on what I have seen so far of Dom 3.

I have pre-ordered and am hoping that Uk customs doesn't delay it too much.

I have really liked what I have read on the forums so far especially the AARs
