My “Major Award” (for all of you Chrsitmas Story fans) came in the mail today. Got my authentic A-Gamer T-shirt prize for coming in 1st in the last challenge. Thanks again to Sgt. Cougar for generously donating the prizes for the challenges and thanks to all the participants who I had the pleasure of dominating in the challenge. 
Special shout out to Clumsy G who didn’t make it easy and put the pressure on big-time in the last few days.
See you all next round.
Ro
Northern California, OG gamer from Atari 2600-Present.
For anyone new who I haven’t had a chance to game with from crusty gamers or I just don’t know you, send me a friend request on xbox live. My gamer card /name is Ro53679. Looking forward to making some more new buds online. For all those whom I already know…wuzzzup!
Just to add a few details I guess: I’m a retired Sheriff Deputy from the California bay area (got hurt on duty) who relocated about 3 hrs north to the Redding area. I’ve been gaming since I was about 5 (38 now) when the Atari 2600 1st came onto the scene, my uncles bought one by pooling their money. L8r my dad bought one for our family. I’ve loved video games from that point on.
I am married (almost 16 yrs now) and have a son (11) and a daughter (8). I currently work with Sgt. Cougar at Shasta Dam. Cougar and I met working for an armored courier and have been friends now for about three years. It’s amazing to me to see the advancement of games since the good old days of the Atari and the square shape graphics, lol. Things sure have progressed a long way in a relatively short amount of time. Look forward to gaming with everyone!
next time, ro, next time!
Congrats again Ro…you did earn it! Also be sure to check out the “challenges” page as the second challenge has started. I’m betting with this crowd we are bound to see some pretty amazing ideas.
P.S. I found out the hard way…wearing your A-Gamer shirt during gaming does not increase your skill level.
