Where are you from? Where do you live?

Anything not at all related to Warhammer goes here. That includes all humor not fitting for the other forums.

Very few Canadians on here and I was really interested in finding people from the Toronto area and get some games in. Not much fantasy up here in the cold north. :cry:
Lies. Not much Fantasy in Aurora (Nor where I live, in Stouffville), but I know when I went to University of Guelph, there were plenty of Fantasy players, and I'm sure Waterloo has even more. I know a couple in Toronto too, just mostly friends.

York Region is just lame. XP
You know that's a funny coincidence - one of my old Chemistry Profs went there. Anyone ever heard of Earle Waghorne?

True on all counts. Waterloo has a big gaming community and York Region is sadly lacking. I know there are a few places in Toronto and Barrie with active fantasy players, but 50-60 minutes driving is a little much for a chance of a game. I guess its just painting until next term then.

Also, thats pretty cool about the prof.

Guys, I've said it before I'll say it again - this isn't a discussion thread. If you want to post anything other than where you're from and where you live, take it to PMs.

I'm from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (easy to draw, hard to spell), Canada. That's smack-dab in the middle of Canada where the land is so flat you can watch your dog run away for a week. We've got a really active fantasy league here with around 15-20 members.

Fell out of a tree in Oldland Common, Bristol, England. And still lurking around the Bristol area but I won't say where because you'll use google earth to look at my back garden!
