    Gamer registry?

    Here's a nifty site for those looking to find gamers in their area...

    <a href="http://nearbygamers.com/">NearbyGamers.com</a>.

    It even has maps and everything. And if you look in the Salt Lake City, UT area, you may see a couple folks you recognize...

    Yeah. Although i found it unsurprising that Don was the nearest gamer to me...

    OK, I've added myself . . . now to get the rest of my group of four to add themselves.

    Honestly, I haven't talked to Don recently. Last I heard, he was doing well and getting back into game design. The wife and kids were good, as was the weekly game group. However, his birthday's in a week, so I'll probably be talking to him then...

    It's a good idea. there's a nearby gamer -- a few blocks away, but having looked at her website...shudder!

    I've actually gotten a couple of gamers off of the Access Denied site. Hopefully, this one will take off.

    I've used Access Denied and also the registry over at Steve Jackson Games. I think I've gotten a few people from them over the years, but Usenet has always been more reliable for me.

    Look here. It's a gamer database-registry thingy. I've used it before with success, but always check out weblinks if people have them listed in their profile -- it will help you avoid the nutters.

    Very cool.

    I'm now on there, under "Hugh" (Yeah, I know... original, eh? )

    And now to post about this to my blog, and get all the gamers on THERE to sign up!

    When you say nutters . . . what do you exactly mean?

    Whackjobs. Psychos. Obsessive stalker creeps. Emotionally troubled nutters. In other words, those gamers out there you don't want to touch with the proverbial ten-foot pole.
