Name: Jay

LGS: Reader Copies
Group: We have anywhere from 4-12 different players with about 4-5 regularly showing up. We play on Wednesday evenings and Saturday afternoons. (SWM is not the only game we play, but is the most common.) We play almost all casual and like to try new formats and anything new to keep the game fresh and exciting.
How I got started: I played a demo when Rebel Storm came out at the place I bought my comics. I loved the game and pieces. I bought the starter and several boosters. I could not find anyone playing it in my area. I bought two boosters of clone strike and then got frustrated, put all my minis in storage and didn't think about it for awhile. I kept buying my comics at the same place and then SSB came out. The ships looked great and I decided to buy a started. I found out that there was a small group that was playing SSB and decided to check it out. I began to play SSB with them. Then I found out they also played SWM and decided to buy some A&E boosters. I was hooked from them on and have never looked back.
Occupation: Grocery Team Leader for Meijer

My Screen Name: Skeeve is the main character in a set of books written by Robert Asprin called the Myth series. They are short, humorous fantasy adventure books. I have always loved them and have used the characters names before.
I am very excited about the future of SWM. I am a casual player and think that the game is in good hands with the people here at Gamers. Some people would disagree with me. I would tell those people that people here at Gamers love this game as much and probably more than someone like me. The last thing they want to do is ruin the game.
I will get off my soapbox now
I love this game and look forward to the future of Casual Play, Competitive Play and especially the V-sets!!
Thanks for taking the time to read this!
Jay,
I'm glad to see another SWM gamer from the Hoosier state.
I would like to extend to you (and your group) an (open) invite to join the group I hang out with.
We play every Thursday at the Barnes & Noble in Carmel (in the cafe) from 7:00 - 10:00 (closing). However, if you come early, games could pop up at any time. We usually play casually, but if the mood hits us, we'll get a little competitive.
