What age bracket do you fall into?[ 53 vote(s) ]
1.19 or younger. 4 / 8%
2.20 to 35. 21 / 40%
3.36 to 50. 20 / 38%
4.51 to 65. 7 / 13%
5.66 or older. 1 / 2%

Hey everyone.

From reading various comments people have made, I get the idea that we Whatelians are a pretty diverse lot. Consequently, I was curious about how varied we are, in terms of age.

I've tried to make the brackets pretty wide, and, generally, in 15 year increments. I think that should cover everyone without people feeling like they're giving their specific ages away.

And, a member has contacted me and said that he/she is having problems voting, so the 36 to 50 bracket gets another +1 beyond what's listed above.

EDIT: Disregard the above. The member's vote went through.

Do you have an 'older than most redwoods' category for people like me?

Very Happy

You mean the 'Geezer' category?

It's official: the presence of Diane is a sign of Gehenna.

A-ha! I thought you were a oWoD'er.

Play Mage the Ascension much? I thought I caught some distinctly Mage thinking in Sara's stories. Was that intentional?

Dr. Bender would be more of a Ragnarok.

So it's looking like most of you folks are in the 20-50 groups. Huh, older than I would have expected.

It's a sad thing when your paraphrase is longer than the original quote. Survivor of the Great Crash of 2011

On this episode of World of Darkness geekery . . .

Actually, with his interest in demons/elder gods, he'd probably be the Werewolves Apocalypse with the Wyrm emerging supreme and ripping existence apart.

And now, back to your regularly scheduled Whateley programming.

Unfortunately, I don't get time to play WoD of any stripe much at all these days. My regular group doesn't like pure horror games... apparently my regular DnD and Shadowrun sessions are bad enough.

Ok, ok, so I had my Runners bust a murder shaman who was about to kill a schoolgirl in cold blood on camera for a snuff film. Then had them fight a blood spirit made out of gore and razor blades. It fits the setting, I swear!

-sighs- As much as I'd like to think that my powers of storytelling are to blame, though, the truth is that they're just not interested in horror.

Anyhow, the short answer (this is the short answer? -Sara) is that no, I haven't played M:tA, as much as I would love to, though I own the PDF (I have all the oWoD books and most of the nWoD books though). Also doesn't help that I'm the designated DM.

On top of that, it also doesn't help that the last time I played, I was utter crap. Ifn' anyone's interested, I'll regail you with tales of those debacles in another thread, though. Otherwise W will be on my back for derailing. Wink

The statement in my signature is false.

A good 59% of our respondents (as of 3:33PM EST, 12/15/08) are above the age of 35. Interesting.

Ahh Yes, the part after the Perfect Metis, and the "time travel" adventure book.

My favorite was the Non-tribe the Dancer-Ronin

That Reminds me does Harry Wolfe look like a Crinos form Garou or a John Talbin type?
