Well, I've got to get out of lurk-mode to link to this: http://news.bigdownload.com/2011/01/04/exclusive-civilization-vs-lead-designer-hired-by-stardock/

Yea, but these guys are all geeks, and geeks tend to be friends with anyone willing to be friendswith them.  Or that's pretty much how I am...why I have a menagerie of friends of varying race, creed, and sexual orientation, when you are a full-blooded geek, you are willing to judge people by what's on the inside and their ability to make jokes using the words: Flux capacitor, Wookie, and C.H.U.D.

what's this about carnivorous humanoid underground dwellers?  they better keep their hands off my Wookies...

Dude, it's cannibalistic.  You are so NOT a geek.

I'm not antisocial or arrogant, I just lack impulse control and the ability to filter what I think from what I say/type...poop.  I like saying poop...

Who can deny the fun value of the word poop? Only stupid poop-heads...

Wow, I have to admit, Brad wasn't shitting us when he said he was dedicated to making Elemental a great game and franchise.  Who the hell else would put together an all-star team to work on a game that has already been released and trashed by critics?  Pretty impressive Brad.

 

I think its fun to watch who he hires next. Its like some sort of industry Guess Who.

Maybe a forum mini-game?  Are there prizes if we guess correct?

Lets start up a betting pool.  $5 a bet, winner takes the pot.

Who wants to bet first?

I'll be honest with you, I love his music. I do. I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, I don't know if it gets any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman".

Can I make a bet as to who it is?

 

Wait...

 

I'm not supposed to be out of my cage yet...

 

Errr, I'll be back later.

Congrats Jon

And no, rule #1 of forum betting pools clearly stipulates:

1) No employee of Stardock Corporation or Stardock Entertainment shall be permitted to enter into any betting pools as per regulation #315 of the International Society for Forum Gamblers Assoc.

That would be unfair since you have insider information

 

PS. When do you get your Stardock badge under your (default) avatar?

I guess when you are Officially Inducted and Announced(TM)

Be careful that could be anyone. There is only one way to be certain. Let's have him streamline something.

What? Yes it is. It clearly says "Jon Shafer" right there in the name field. Surely you're not indicating that there might be some sort of subterfuge here? I really don't think someone like Jon Shafer would endeavor to deceive in that manner.

I think he just means that someone may have signed up with the name Jon Shafer as some kind of ruse as the only proof we could have that this is THE Jon Shafer is the Stardock tag.

Go look at his profile:

- Member since 2007

- Age 25

- United States

And then look through all his replies.  Make sure you select "Jon Shafer's replies (Full Text))  From: All Sites".   Every single one is "in character".  So for over 3 years this dude has been impersonating Jon Shafer.  And not made a single off character post?

 

It is him.  Surely.  He just doesn't have his badge since he is not Official(TM) yet.

Either that or I have been successfully trolled .
