An Avid table-top gamer of about 8 years now, yes I started late in University, but I plan on catching up with the 'old timers' by dint of sheer stubbornness and marathon sessions. I love the unbridled enthusiasm and creativity that is exposed when we role-play, and yes, the excitement of a fictional character failing or succeeding based on the fickle whims of the dice aka 'Roll playing' also gets my blood pumping. Am new to the online virtual tabletop, but figure that due to the logistics of finding great games, coupled with advances in tech, that it is the future.
