Hi All,
I've been playing in the CoD5 OW & Vietnam Freeze Tag servers for a couple of years now usually in the afternoons and sometime in the evenings. Being retired has given me more time for gaming and other hobbies. This spring I got my ham radio license (Canada) and it's a great hobby with many facets to it. I'm an avid Linux user and try to do both my ham radio stuff and gaming using just that operating system. My main gaming "rig" is a SteamDeck that I use mainly setup as a desktop computer with the built-in monitor as an extra screen.
I have been married for 33 years to the same wonderful wife and I have four grown children (3 sons and 1 daughter). Three of my children are married and I have three grandsons and a granddaughter on the way. I live in a small town in rural Ontario with one stop light and about 1000 people. As a kid, I grew up overseas and speak Spanish fluently. My teenage boys got me into gaming when CoD2 came out. The main game mode I played back then was "Capture the Flag" which tended to be a full speed ahead type mode and that's my default style (which I know is not always the best for Freeze Tag but its hard to teach an old dog new tricks). I was a member of the WarKings gaming community back then and played on their servers (see warkings.net). WarKings is pretty much defunct now. At the time I joined the WarKings, you had to pick a king or figure from history so I chose Sancho II from Spain (and party because I speak Spanish). I have been playing under Sancho_ on XI servers for awhile, and mainly with the WK clan tag.
I have come to know many of you and look forward to interactions in game and on Teamspeak on an almost daily basis in the winter and off and on in the summer. Here are a couple of pictures of my modest ham setup and my Steamdeck. Hope to see you in game!
Take care,
Sancho
