DoctorDitko Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 OK, there are a few threads that make me think I might not be the most ancient of days player on the Homecoming server. Are you older than me? I just turned 58, which should mean I know better, but (to my surprise) that's not thing that actually happens. You don't get wiser, you just remember all the mistakes you made when you were younger. Then you pretend you are wiser to the youngsters. Oops. Should have used the spoiler tag, but I can't figure out how to use it! OK. so the oldest player wins 20 million inf from Yomo er, 1 million inf from me, and a promise to team up with you any time you want, as long as it's not too far past my bedtime. 11 2 Disclaimer: Not a medical doctor.

DoctorDitko Posted September 5, 2020 Author Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) Off topic, on live I once teamed up with a player who did very well on our team. He was very quiet, though (and I'm a notorious banterer*) and after a few missions, he confessed he was 8 years old. I really hope he's here, somewhere! *Also, why can't banterers have a special tag? Roleplayers get one! Edited September 5, 2020 by DoctorDitko 2 1 Disclaimer: Not a medical doctor. Do not take medical advice from Doctor Ditko. Also, not a physicist.

Yomo Kimyata Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) OF COURSE you get 20mm, no, 1mm for every year of your age, from me! I won't win this, since I'm not as old as Ditko, the old git. EDIT: I changed my mind. You get 20mm for every year of your age. No ties; there can be only one! RE-EDIT: Adding a prize for the youngest player as well! 20mm*(50-age) for the youngest player. Edited September 5, 2020 by Yomo Kimyata 2 1 Who run Bartertown?
wolfshadow31 Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 I’m 46. Not the oldest. But some days I feel like 100. Lol
cranebump Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 I’ll be 58 in December. I have done a TON of AE work, both long form and single arc. Just search the AE mish list for my sig @cranebump. For more information on my stories, head to the AE forum sub-heading and look for “Crane’s World.” Support your AE authors! We ARE the new content.

Twisted Toon Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 Hey, Doc. Don't you know it is impolite to ask a woman, over 35, her age? Of course, I'm horrible at judging ages, so I just don't ask a woman her age at all. Also, since I'm not a woman, it's ok to ask me. So, I'm not the youngest at 49.

nightroarer Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 Whew! Guess I'm still a youngster. I'm only 53. 1
Lusiphur Malache Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 I sometimes feel older, but only clock in at 55. Although, I do tell the women that I'm 60 so I look even better for my age. Does that get me the win just for creativity? 3
