Michigan. The only blue state with its own militia. I know of at least five other Michiganders in the game and on the forums, too.

Those on forum, refer to here, those not refer the to forum and soon after here. At least I suggest that.

Born and partially raised in Connecticut. I've spent probably half my life here in North Carolina though. Unless something surprising happens, it's here I'll probably stay for a while too.

Southern California!

I like to tell out-of-staters that I live 15 minutes inland of Malibu :)  (which is totally true, by the way!)

I guess BM doesn't attract people from the deep south?

Odd– you'd think they'd enjoy feudal fantasies...

In my (admittedly, very limited and northern) experience, social conservatives, as a group, have a greater tendency to dislike sci-fi, fantasy, and geekdom in general. And it's hardly succumbing to stereotypes to note that the deep south tends to be much more socially conservative than the rest of the nation...

I'm just surprised we have no Atlantans, Cajuns, or Floridians.

I think there is some truth to that; still just surprised that we have NONE.

Don't know that we do. Just none who have posted in this thread so far—and given that less than 2 dozen total people have posted here, this thread can't be seen as an even remotely representative sample—yet. :)

Nah, it's just a statistical fluke. It'll correct itself come next census.

Only state that matters. Wisconsin. 90% of all brandy produced in the US is consumed in Wisconsin.
