Like I said, within reason. ;D Besides, if everyone were on the team, who would be left to play the game?

New position, I believe. More help = you get TSL sooner! !!! (within reason, that is)
I suppose I should amend this to say:
More help = you get TSL sooner and/or you get a better TSL.

Currently his main duty is learning how to login to stuff.  Then he gets to download LOTS of other stuff, and then he gets to boss people around a whole bunch.

Yeah, the systems stuff wasn't bad at all. Really quick job on that by the way Weldon. That was nice. Now I'm trying to digest way too much too fast. Hmm... Production... I guess it's like the Darth Vader of a project. Bringing order to the galaxy, making the emperor's life easier, ensuring the TIE Advanced get TWO coats of wax but we can probably skip it on the TIE Fighters... and we get a really cool outfit too.

Lol, that analogy. Good luck with your new position.

Team members don't play the game just for the fun of it? :(

No actually, I've done this position before but not in the video game domain. I'm really excited about it.

It's not that it's not fun - we just don't get the same experience you do - there aren't too many surprises (other than bugs).

Lol.

Still, it must be a very cool experience to shape the game in such a direct way.

It's interesting to say the very least.  Sometimes it's more work than I ever imagined and other times it's less (those rare occasions when something works the way we want it to the first time we try it and we sit back and enjoy the moment for a couple minutes and wonder how we got so lucky on that particular task).  It's like on Mythbusters when something works exactly how they want it to the first time and they are just as much shocked as proud.

As was in Disc World I am going to respond with some monkey speak:  ooh ooh ooooh oohhh woooooooooooooohhhhhh!  Oooh hoo hoo ooohhh!  and  then follow up with the standard aforementioned "WOOT!"

You can't really see any detail in the forum-sized image, but oh well. Also I couldn't really find Vader in any poses similar to the original, so I sorta had to change the pose.

Now to make some more TSL wallpaper...Hmmm...

I'm happy to see your enthusiasm, Haids. Any suggestions?

Hmmm.  Maybe something with the sea nymphs?  Give one four mouths?  ;)

I'm kidding about the four mouths thing, but seriously, it'd be cool to see what you do with the sea nymphs.  And of course, something to do with the Isle of Wonder is always fun.  Maybe the garden?

Of course I'm enthusiastic, Doon!  I am the founder of your fan club! :D

Let's see... *puts on nonprescription glasses and rummages through files*

Here's what I've got in those areas.









Not a very large selection, or an especially good one. The screenshot of the garden is outdated; it's been updated since that was taken (for example, with vines on the rotten tomatoes). I personally prefer the underwater nymph picture, but there's not much editing I can do other than slapping a logo on it. But if you have any ideas and/or pictures, send them my way!
