I stayed up late on election night

[Pieman2004]

playing video games. I was actually playing The Bard's Tale if you were wondering.
I didn't vote either. I live in oklahoma and things seemed to be one-sided on everything so I thought I would use the time it would take me to vote to better myself at video games.

BTW has anyone played The Bard's Tale for ps2. It is pretty good.

I haven't played it, but may pick it up on your recomendation?

I live in Oklahoma as well, where are you located? If you haven't already you should sign up for Witchboard's Oklahoma arcade mailing list.

hmm what is this Witchboards mailing list? I am interested. I live in Tuttle, OK, home of Jason White.

For those that don't know Jason White was last years Heisman Trophy winner, and is the quarterback for the University of Oklahoma Sooners football team.

What about you, where are you located?

I didn't vote either.  Not by choice though. I've been a permanent resident for the last 3.5 years, but don't get a vote until I renounce my Irish citizenship and become an American.

The puzzling part of this is- I was required to sign up for selective service when I got the green card. So I'm expected to fight for this country, but I don't get to vote? Hardly seems fair.

I remember asking the same thing when I turned 18.

"I'm old enough to vote and old enough to fight/die for my country, but I'm not old enough to drink......wtf"

Witchboard is oneof the members of this forum. He keeps a mailing list going when arcade related stuff goes up for sale locally he lets everyone know about it. Send him  PM, he can let you know what you need to do to join.

What about you, where are you located?

I live about half an hour west of Tulsa out in the sticks. Where is Tuttle?

I never thought about that.  I got my dual citizenship for Ireland a few years ago.  I just wanted the passort, but I'll need to see if I can vote in Ireland too.

Just think of the guys that have died without being able to have a drink legally.

And you clowns better vote next time.  Use an absentee ballot.  That's what I'm doing from now on.

I honestly don't think I've played Bards Tale.  I'll have to check it out.

-edit-
It's not weird like that pikiumchu game (or whatever it is) is it?  Where that lady is sideways on the flagpole and the face has that tongue and you collect the little chickens & dogs?  That game is like the burger king commercial.  A little too weird for comfort.

There's no such thing as dual citizenship anymore. The INS makes sure you pick one or the other now, so you can't hold two valid passports anymore. If you've already got it, there's not much they can do about it- but I'm screwed.

Well, USUALLY the guys who die without reaching legal drinking age are usually at least briefly stationed somewhere that they CAN legally drink.
