I think back when I started the average age was in the late-30s, early 40s.  

It has probably made it to the teens by now though.

51 here but I don't play any online games anymore due to satelite internet connection. A 2 second latency is a bit too much to be competitive. I still have a bunch of "box games I play. I'm retired, i'm SUPPOSED to be having fun darnit so I do!

38 in May.

Quit worrying go do what you enjoy. Live your life as you see fit and as long as it hurts no one then anything is OK.

Scaevola,

Keep playing the game. Tests are begining to see links between mental acuity and facility being more pronounced in older adults who play games that require you to use your brain the way AH does. In simple terms, it keeps your brain sharp! It's like sex...use it or loose it.....kids!!!!! I don't know anymore?????..........:) Kids these days probably think looking at porno sites is sex....why in my day we all went out behind the barn and scared the sheep.......:D

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Same age as wombatt..... In fact I think I'm the guy who teased him relentlessly in grade school.

It's gonna be a big party.  All are welcome.




I'll come, as long as we don't have to do the birdie song or the Okie Cokie.

Although after a couple of  Stella the above has been performed, usually with my pants around my ankles for some strange reason, at least that's what the photographs seem to indicate.

Just shot down a couple of people and got shot down as well, feeling much better thank you.

Brand spanking new 40. WTF! When did that happen? I was 30 just last week, and 20 the month before that :)

There are all kinds of games besides AH, which I don't consider a game so much as something to take a break with.  

But yes, you hav'ta have relatively good eyesight to do well on computer games such as AH.  I'm 48 and can't read the dials on the P-38 very well.  Just about decided to have a magnifying glass handy when using that plane, which is excellent for jabo work.:D
