How you came to UFOP: SB118

I came to SB118, by an search of PBEM games on the internet. I liked Star Trek, but I realized that I would have work on the writing skills. I joined and after a bit of prodding by the FO, I got hooked. It was probably a good fit. We had recently moved, and away from my gamming group, and needed my 'fix'of gaming. I still do some military board gaming but SB118, now covers the vast majority of my gaming time.

Probably the biggest thing that drew me to ST118 that I knew that if I put the time in the game, that the game would still be there. I figured 18 years was a pretty good track record.
