I have a suggestion. Since you're looking for a play partner, instead of references as the references could be profiles he's written himself, why not join your local community and make friends. See who seems to be really good at the various activities you're interested in and ask them to top you sometime.
Thanks. I have joined a few groups in my area and been going to munchs for a while. I have also been to a demo. There is no one in my group that are into some of the stuff I want to learn more about. Plus most already have multiple subs. I would never take a profile as a reference. This profile is addition too, not in place of real life meetings. But thank you for responding.
