Well i remeber stuff from over 500 years - being a reincarnating buddha has its advantages.
As I said before, I'm over 10,000, Immortal. I saw Babylon rise and fall along with several other famous, or infamous nations/empires/city-states. Fun Fact:Caligula, while still a pervert with odd feshishes, wasn't as much of an asshole as history made him out to be, fun guy, great at parties.

Not an argument, or atleast not a real one, forgive me if it seemed so, I tend to have fake arguments with people for both of our amusement.
In their sixties? Wow, DF must not look too different from the original games that they where alive to see come out.
Forgive me if it seemed as though I even considered for a moment that it might have been a real argument. I need sarcasm tags.
I think it might have been slink, but that's going off of a message I can't remember from another person I can't remember.

bell curve it is!
also:
We should have an end-all-be-all Bay12 Demographics poll. Age, gender, location, intelligence, the lot.
Then sell the results to a marketing company.
lol. but this:
How about an entire board just for polls about things like this? >.>
would be nice.

I would like to also point out that 40d came out on my birthday, and I never played it until 2009.

Poll results vary from board to board.
It'd probably be different again if it was in GD

Well, that is an interesting experiment:

Create this same poll on all the various boards and see what happens, besides recieving flak for spamming.
I suspect the subforums where the 4chan roam has a bias towards the younger. ;)

I've been 25 for almost a decade now, but am getting a bit too grey and fat by now to really pull it off anymore. ;)

In their sixties? Wow, DF must not look too different from the original games that they where alive to see come out.

I assume you mean the original computer games.  The first game I was alive to see come out was some kind of card game featuring lambs jumping on fields of grass and flowers.  ;)

The first computer games I played were in black-and-white (or black-and-green, or black-and-amber).  They used only alphanumeric symbols with no graphical symbols at all.  Later on there was color and several sets of non-alphanumeric symbols.  A lot of them were actually text-only games because processor power and memory capacity was limited.  Graphics was an output function from the CPU rather than from a dedicated graphics chipset.  Even games on dedicated game machines were not much better graphically, and of course they were rather arcade-ish.  DF is much, much better than any of those, although of course they possess in my mind an aura of the fresh and optimistic exploration of life that I was experiencing at the time that I played them.  I mean, there is nothing intrinsically wonderful about shooting Klingons on a 16x16 field of blanks and asterisks, except for the fact that I was vying  with the other laboratory personnel for my turn playing on the PDP-11 before the boss came in and we had to reboot it for work.  :D

Indeed.  That really annoyed the people who ended up squashed beneath it. :)
