I had pong too , and then activision. Never had a nintendo. Spent a lot of time in arcades, had all the pac-man patterns memorized, and was the first to beat dragon's lair in my arcade. I used to buy 120 tokens for $20, and then sell them 5 for $1. Learned to program inside Radio Shack on a Tandy TRS-80 Mark II. My first computer was a Radio Shack color computer.

I was heavily into first person shooters like Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake, and Unreal until my reaction times got too slow to compete with the teenagers that play 24/7. I played WoW online for about six months, and then I got bored with it. Now I mostly play Battle Pirates on FB, which surprisingly has some similarities to TradeWars.

I'm level 56, and currently in Sector 136. I may be moving soon though, as we have been invaded by the Lords of Destruction (L-O-D). They are a bunch of in-sector hitters that level my base every time my bubble goes down. Hostile activity from adjacent sectors has increased as well, so it just isn't the quiet little neighborhood it was a few weeks ago.

Anyone is welcome to friend me on FB (http://www.facebook.com/MicroBlaster1) if you like.

***Warning*** My cats took over my FB page, and I now have over 4700 cat friends.

I'm playing Battle Pirates as well. What level are you and what sector?

Battle Pirates- pshaw.

Sid Meier's Pirates, now that's a fun game.

Holy heck you weren't kidding. Just added you.
I'm level 51 in 296. Good sector, good people. We get the insects every now and again, but they get bubbles and don't stay long. You're welcome to hop over.
