I really enjoy reading threads in poppycock.

ps to GoHeat3 (whom I currently have a 1v1 turtling match with) did you accidentally unshell that bombshell that jumped in front of me or was that on purpose?

Hey Duncan Big Grin

Yeah, nonsense is pretty enjoyable xD

Nice idea!

I'm from Austria (no kangaroos), 20 years old and studying Physics at university.
I like playing a wide variety of games, computer/mobile and also board games, but slowly realizing I just don't have as much time as I had before to spend on these activities.
Outwitters currently is my strategy game of choice and I really like the asynchronous aspect of the game, so I don't have to plan my whole day around it.

Interesting. I can't believe I've played so many games with you and didn't really know anything about you... but we actually have quite a bit in common (I'm Szei btw but on the forums I use this account).

I'm 20 and currently studying Physics at UC Berkeley. Besides Physics classes I'm mostly taking Korean (language and culture) and hope to move their for an extended period. As for videogames I have a pretty broad taste. Currently my strategy games are Outwitters and Starcraft 2. Though, I haven't had much free time recently so mostly I've just been playing Outwitters. Other games I've enjoyed in the past month are WipEout HD/2048, Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward, and XCOM. Outside of videogames I mostly play basketball since that's what most of my friends are into, though personally my favorite sports are actually tennis, ping-pong, and badminton.

Hah - my real name is Duncan too! Not too many Duncans in America.

Well I'll chime in. I'm 27 and I am currently living in Virginia. I've always been a big fan of strategy games - like Risk, Stratego, Blokus, Chess...more recently Hero Academy and Outwitters. Historically I've been a pretty big gamer generally, though I don't play very many games anymore. I like Outwitters because I can play it anywhere on my phone. Smile

Other things about me...I'm interested in politics, and I am a fencer (you know, the sword fighting kind, not building fences). I like to think that fencing is similar to playing strategy games because it's kind of like "physical chess" where you have to outsmart your opponent as much as you have to be stronger/faster to win.
