I'm 29, I'll be 30 in September, though I'm not really looking forward to breaking the 30 barrier, but hey at least I'm in good company.

I'm 21

I get carded a lot. Sometimes twice. I'm short too (5'5) and I could definitely pass for a high school kid.

Last year I went to Denny's with my family and they asked if I wanted a kid's menu!!! NO JOKE. "No, I'd like a big boy plate, please!"

Been playing shmups since I was six. (Thank you Super R-Type for the SNES and Twin Cobra for the Genesis)

People said I look older, oh well.

It's funny how they say us youngters are said to look older than we actually are, whereas most old people are said to look YOUNGER than they are.

I was introduced to shmups at a REALLY early age. My mom used to play a LOT of centipede on our atari 5200 with the trackball. And her other favorite was MegaMania for the 5200. I remember playing a lot of that game. I must have been only 5 or 6.

Galaxian and Galaga soon followed. Space Invaders was too boring and too hard for me! Couldn't get the hang of it. But Galaga kept me busy.

Galaxian had that great sound effect when you fired. CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! It sounded so powerful!

20 (21 in May, and not looking forward to it! Still, it doesn't mean I have to start thinking like a mercenary, careerist arsehole, right?)
