I'd say 16-20
Be a man and-

uh...

Be a woman and make an exact guess! This is now a competition, we have no room for compromises!

That's TolyK's responsibility. The winner PM's him their address and he mails them a prize of their choice.

I want a magma-proof bucket.

My bet is that he's 16.

epic.

***
can anyone guess my age?
Well... Let's see...

You're still using smilies, so that means you aren't SRS BSNS, meaning that the chance of you being elderly is much lower...
You have capitalization problems(no offense), so that means you're pretty young...
You used epic, meaning you're not an old man.
And finally, you've got a young feeling about you.

So... I'd say somewhere between 12-18.
Be a man and make an exact guess!
Alright, fine. I say 14; my age. He seems to be around my kind of silly-serious-nice-mean level of spectrum.

Also, I point you to the elderly one above using smilies.
Note that I said "Much lower", not "Impossible".

Quote
If I were to use your same method to guess your age, I'd call you a child based entirely on that spacing error you made.
What spacing error? I don't see any. Ed: You mean with the parentheses? That small thing? That tiny error? Seriously?

Also, I am somewhat a child, dude. I'm 14, just barely into my 'teens.

What spacing error? I don't see any. Also, you're grossly underestimating my method's age estimation.
The one before the opening parenthesis- you know what? Doesn't matter. :P

Eh, I'd say 12 and under is a child. And not being a child doesn't mean someone is immune to syntax errors. That's kind of what I was getting at.

On second thought, I change my guess to 17.

Yeah, I saw that. Thing is, I've seen people do it spaced and un-spaced. As I'm a home-schooler, I learn by copying people. So that's why I have problems once and a while.

And not being a child doesn't mean someone is immune to syntax errors. That's kind of what I was getting at.
Dude, I was just predicting. Usually when I think that I'm talking to adults, 90% of the time they'll type out their words in correct capitalization and punctuation, or at the VERY least correct capitalization. That's why I see people that don't spell all that well (e.g incorrect capitalization, no punctuation) as younger people; we're all more hyper-active while we're young.

I'm 20 and I'm definitely still a child!

...Does that mean you'll still be in your middle-age when you're about to die of old age?

I suppose the real way to tell someone's age over the internet is to see if they have an emotional overreaction to even the slightest perceived criticism.
I can see and understand where you're coming from.

16.

I love how eloquently all of the people here type, even if they're <15 years old. Just goes to show the type of person who enjoys playing DF :P
