The SCA? That takes me back. I’d met a young woman with the most beautiful green eyes, and her and I had spent a bit of shy geeky time together.

Anyway, at one point, she asked me if I’d like to join her and her friends, a group in the SCA, and hang out with a bunch of geeks. Now, I was a mondo geek, but I come out with a sarcastic “why would I want to hang out with a bunch of geeks”…

Needless to say, she didn’t catch the sarcasm and her and her beautiful enchanting green eyes were never a part of my life.[/quote]

Honestly Vroom, I have no idea where your experience came from but from my 5 year envolvement in the SCA you need to be DAMN fit to fight.

I fought in 3 pennsic wars, and it sound geeky I know, but I wanna see how many men will don 50+ lbs. of armor and rush into battle that lasts for hours, almost like a real battle of Europe. Swinging a heavy rattan weapons for five minutes will get most men wiped.

Now, the whole Role Play part is just garbage. I can agree with you there.

zd,

Good post. Yeah, I almost forgot how much fun I use to have when I was a kid playing it. And now the loss of the originality of roleplaying everything out on paper for EverQuest.

But I played EQ for awhile and even the new one EQ2 for a bit. Its a time sink… and the funny thing. If you play that, you can forget about staying motivated to weight lifting. lol

Thus, the reason I stopped EQ2 :slight_smile:

Computer games are what inspired me to start lifting weights. I want to be built like PacMan …>[/quote]

Everquest Frickin Rules…

I played on the Rodcet Nife server as a Dark Elf Magician named Ophiel.

I played that game for maybe 4 years AND weight trained. It was way to addictive and I really needed to stop before I became a total dork.
