"Oh damn - somebody's seen through my online personna"

Sorry Straybow, I'm afraid that Civil Engineers just arn't that imaginative - those that are either become architects or have it trained out of them!

Actually TDL was once a character name - we were all going through a rather odd phase at the time with character names.

It's the almost perpetual cloud cover. Better to stay inside than risk being burnt by a suprise visit from The Great Ball of Fire in the Sky. ;)

Seriously though it's a pretty good state to game in and Origins is there with Gencon just the next state over. Not bad to live in either but I am biased. ^_^ Just be prepared to like or tolerate football and golf.
 
I used to live in the Finger Lakes region of New York. Which is another location of only occasional glimpses of that thing they show on TV called the Sun, so I suppose I had to find another place that resembled it.

Welcome Piper :D

You have much reading and posting ahead of you.

All of it benifits the rest of us and advances the Traveller game(IMHO).

Perhaps the Site shorthand thread is a good place to start ;)
 
Name: As posted (Not imaginative enough to create a board name when my own has worked fine the past 9 terms)
Age: Figure it out (I start term 10 in Sept this year)
Stats: 975C9(D if you count school of hard knocks)7 [managed to save all but endurance)
Homeworld: Lodge/SS of South Carolina/USA sector
Present home: Knoxville/SS of Tennessee/ USA sector
Military: 2 terms USNavy (nuclear power branch)
Skills: computer 2, handgun 2, rifleman 2, electronics 0,[hobbies]; mechanical 4, engineering 2, draftsman 1, [3 terms as machinest + military traning]; carpentry 0, electrician 1, plumbing/pipefitter 0, [odd jobs]; fast food 5, customer service 5 (do these = steward 5 ?)[3 = terms in fast food (2 terms in management)] instruction 3, JOT 5, thelogy 1, plus a handfull of others at 0 level (hense JOT 5)
Favorite version: CT/MT/MTU blend
Favorite sector: Spinward Marches
Favorite world: the next one I roll up or visit
Favorite ship: Far, Fat trader (my own design)
Favorite adventure: spec purchase of 15 tons of "forms" -turned out to be currency. After conversion from local currency, my share was 50 - 60 MCr
I have played and refereed and am trying to convert all the design sequences to Excell, which is how I discovered this site.
Current project: a pocket empire in TNE (will most likely use the rules blend above)[In addition to the programming]
My theory of playing Traveller: The idea is to have fun. When discussions about the rules get out of hand; take a food break while discussing how to resolve the problem so it is fair and fun to all involved; make that adjustment to YTU; return to having fun.

Correction: I started term 10 last Sept. (2004)
