Hello, world.
As the blog title says, I consider myself a gamer. Being a gamer is somewhat like being a lady: if you have to say it, you aren't. I know, I just said it. Video games have been a passion for me since I got my first device. I think it was one of those cheap electronic games with fixed sprites (a cheap clone of a Game&Watch, probably). This small gadget got me hooked instantly. After a few years (1994, IIRC), it was my first PC, a 486, 25MHz, 4MB of RAM, 150MB hard disk. It still worked a few years ago. To show how far we got, I still keep a much cherished copy of it's hard drive, in my phone, and I can emulate all of the games on an Android port of DosBox. Anyway, this just paved the way for the future. Although I never owned a video game console, emulators are addressing this flaw quickly. I'm a hardcore player, that longs to explore games to their very end. I'm one of the few among my friends that like game so much, and a lot of them share my Computer Science degree. In short, I consider myself a gamer, but I'll let you be the judge of that.
As the blog title also says, I happen to like spreadsheets. Not just spreadsheets, mind you: data management, databases, big data, data scraping... along with math, statistics, and a healthy dose of obsession for tracking data.
Mix all this, plus the huge amount of trackable data on today's (and why not yesterday's) games, and you get me. A game & math nerd, with a passion for efficiency planning, using sheets, databases and math to get an (honest) edge on the games I play.
Welcome to my blog =)
