    there are alot of people who are about 20 or younger, but I don't think there are many who are quite so young as you are.

    Nah, you're an old man now, that's why you're probably drunk.

    Does this poll really belong here, though? I imagine it would have a better place, unless you're specifically referring to the EB community (?)

    I'm 19, clinging on desperately to teenage years.

    Your nephew just turned 18? One of my cousins has a son who is older than me...


    Classical history is interesting. Especially when accompianied by EB.

    Maion, Leviathan, I hate to break it to you, but you are still teenagers. You're only 2-3 years older than my daughter.

    EDIT: I don't know about the players, but quite a few of us on the team are 30s and some are even in their 40s.

    But my driving licence and the right to drink and vote say otherwise!

    And yes, I am 18 as well - currently very busy with the last of my A levels (which is counter-balanced by the fact I'll then have 3/4 months holiday before university starts, so it isn't all that bad).

    HA!! I'm the oldest one here by more than a decade!!! I can unashamedly announce I am in my late 40's...you folks write as if you think that's some kind of communicable disease. I definitely don't get the chance to play EB or dig into it's numerical innards as much as many of you on this board -- a wife, two kids, and a more-than-full-time-job will do that -- but I have a great time playing and, better still, learning about this period in history. And thank to all of your experts for helping me in this addicting little hobby!

    By the way -- my brother turned me on to RTW a couple of years ago...and he's now 56. Old farts can play games too...

    She'd be about my age now (16).

    No -- I was referring to the whole "dying in a traffic accident" thing from Atraphoenix, who was commenting on something Joszen1 said. A bit confusing, but I'm fine being referred to as the "oldie" here...but think of it simply as "more mature"...
    What the hell, call me "Grandpa Tarkus"......at age 47??!!??
