I'm tall, athletic & pretty good looking so I voted 'yes'. |

I've been told I look good on radio … Phil |

Dunno. What does a wargamer look like? |

How does a wargamer look? With their eyes! |
TunnelRat | 28 Nov 2014 7:51 a.m. PST |
How can anyone 'look' like a Wargamer when there is no such thing as a typical gamer? |
Mooseworks8 | 28 Nov 2014 7:57 a.m. PST |
If nerd t-shirt wearing, hadn't bathed in a week, with unkempt hair gamer, than NO. |

Flashman14 | 28 Nov 2014 8:25 a.m. PST |
The most common look at the cons is an overweight Heisenburg (Walter White): Bald, glasses, goatee. From every view point on the gaming floor you can identify one of those in virtually all directions. |
Ron W DuBray | 28 Nov 2014 8:30 a.m. PST |
but there are people that look like that and you can see them the same way in every group of people no matter what they are doing. even just walking down a city street and see 5 on every block. |
Martin Rapier | 28 Nov 2014 8:36 a.m. PST |
Do I look like these guys?
well, probably not…. |
John the OFM | 28 Nov 2014 9:59 a.m. PST |
No. I am a Man of Mystery. |
skippy0001 | 28 Nov 2014 10:30 a.m. PST |
Wargamers have the same thing in common with homicidal maniacs-they can look like anyone. |
Editor in Chief Bill | 28 Nov 2014 11:01 a.m. PST |
they can look like anyone Can they look like Tom Cruise? |

I see your silly pictures and raise you another …
… from here. |
Yesthatphil | 28 Nov 2014 4:33 p.m. PST |
Wargamers wear ties as far as I remember …

Games have rules. Gamers don't. |
Weasel | 29 Nov 2014 11:13 a.m. PST |
From the local gaming store, the average gamer is a 14 year old kid with an anime shirt so no, don't look like that :-) |
Frederick | 29 Nov 2014 12:28 p.m. PST |
I am tall, middle aged and dress casually when gaming – which means, for our local historical gamers, I fit right in Weasel is right, though – I am about 30 years too old for the Games Workshop crowd, though |
ciaphas | 29 Nov 2014 5:12 p.m. PST |
As middle aged white guy I am stereo typed in my club. but I might not be somewhere else. jon |
Wulfgar | 30 Nov 2014 6:20 p.m. PST |
When I wargame, I always dress like a ballerina. I dunno why. Just want to be comfy, I guess. |
Karellian Knight | 01 Dec 2014 9:49 a.m. PST |
Male of female ballerina? Inquiring minds need to know. However on second thoughts… |
Cyrus the Great | 01 Dec 2014 4:21 p.m. PST |
Since I wargame, I must look like a wargamer. |

Parzival | 01 Dec 2014 5:59 p.m. PST |
What Cyrus said. Logic triumphs. |
Mute Bystander | 02 Dec 2014 4:21 a.m. PST |
Wait… I am guilty of using Logic? That can't be right… |
Wulfgar | 02 Dec 2014 7:14 a.m. PST |
Just my strange sense of humor, Karellian. My daughter was a serious dancer for several years, and I was trusted to help a lot backstage. Fun times. |
Alfred Adler does the Hobby | 02 Dec 2014 4:46 p.m. PST |
Guess that is a question of the individual's interpretations and core belief of what they think a wargamer should look like – sorta like Rorschach Ink Blot – (hehe) |
DWilliams | 02 Dec 2014 6:41 p.m. PST |
I wish she was the 'typical' wargamer … (sigh) |
Lentulus | 03 Dec 2014 7:49 a.m. PST |
Years ago I met a group of Gamers at a pub in the UK (some of the members, great hosts all, may still be here). I could not tell any one person that came in was a gamer; but once three were sitting at the same table I knew they were a group of gamers. I have no idea how, but I could. And I fit in. |
Terrement | 03 Dec 2014 1:19 p.m. PST |
I am a war gamer, and I look like myself, therefore I look like a wargamer. |
