Hey, I'm Matthew (duh).
Not really sure what you want in these introduction posts. I have two posts pending approval in other threads because I somehow didn't see this one until just now. I learned about this game in the middle of March(I think), and I've played waaaaayy too much ever since. It's a really cool game with a sometimes steep learning curve, but it's a really cool game and I've enjoyed playing the game and learning all the different strategies.
