Grognard or n00B ?

Post by tsimmonds »

This may tell us something about the current state of our hobby. Please participate; let's have some fun!

Do you know what a CRT is? Just yes or no please, plus the year you were born.

And I don't mean a cathode ray tube[;)]

Yes. 1956.[;)]

Thanks, I didn't know what a non-Cathode Ray Tube CRT was. I'm sure Irrelevant will be happy with you telling me...[:D]

Oh, and 1973...

Duh...Combat Results Table oh God how I miss those.

I am an idiot, I apologize. I just got too excited at just seeing "CRT" once again.

Details I can't handle well while drinking.

My bad, Fliiper is off for the night.
