Any devs going to be at E3?

The_Night_Raven · 05-09-2005 06:01 PM

Once again, I find myself without passage to E3. You don't know just how badly you want to go untill you've been twice and suddenly find yourself without the means. It's everybit as cool as it looks.

HOWEVER, one of my former colleagues and current friend is going, and has offered to pick up some swag for me. Naturally, I told him to send me whatever he got from Cryptic, which he had no problem with as he is strictly a console-only man.

But I was wondering, are any of you devs going to be there? I was hoping I could send him down with my pre-sale box or something and get it signed.

Some are. Not all. States for sure. Recluse for sure. Probably Posi but not 100% certain

This space is intentionally left blank.

The_Night_Raven · 05-09-2005 06:11 PM

Follow up question, and I REALLY hope a dev will field this: can I give my buddy a certain time to stop by the Cryptic booth for a signing?

Cool, I'll be there all three days. Look forward to seeing you guys. (Again for some of you.) It would be nice if you can let us know a good time to see you guys for those of us that will be attending. Or if you prefer a good time for us to NOT bother you.

Let's let the forum give her or him a cool handle.

I propose: Wintergreen. Or perhaps Salmonella Man/Gal. Or Flukebot. Or the Vole King/Queen. Or Poker Face. Or Vermicious Knid. Or Lord/Lady Celery. Or Spanktacular. Or Shuffle Broad (if female). Or Sir Didn't Want To Come To This Con Anyway (if male). Or Kublai Khan (if high on Opium).

SDragon · 05-09-2005 06:38 PM

hey...how do you get into E3 anyway?

peterpeter · 05-09-2005 06:40 PM

Yes, he needs a nickname, and quick. Babelfish to the rescue! Hmmm, "another programmer" in Portuguese is "um outro programador". Programador doesn't sound bad. Reminds me of Matador. In Russian, it's something I can't pronounce. "&#1076;&#1088;&#1091;&#1075;& #1086;&#1081; &#1087;&#1088;&#1086;&#1075;&# 1088;&#1072;&#1084;&#1084;&#1085;& amp;#1080;&#1082;". That first word looks almost like "pyro". Pyro Programador! Errr, we can do better. Let's try translating from English to Portuguese to French to Greek and back to English. That gives us (drum roll please)..."other programmer." Well, that was a bit of a disappointment. Ok, how about...

this website : put in "another programmer" for name, and we get...The Itching Seahorse Man. Or The Itching Seahorse Lady, as the case may be. Hmm. Let's try again.

This website suggests "The Chafing Flake". Ugh.

Ok. One last try. This website here suggests...Scary Dude, for a guy, or Light Snake, for a woman.

Well, if Statesman doesn't know his name, he is probably just cannon fodder anyhow. Might as well just name him "Red Shirt Guy" and then Lord Recluse can kill him on stage to kick off the CoV beta.

How about "The Unknown Dev" or "The Unknown Programer"

or TUD/TUP for short

I know I will see you again on another game somewhere - one game can't hold all us crazies forever.

/me wonders if there are two Raven* devs or if Ravenstorm will feel very neglected now.

As for no-cool-handle guy/gal, how about Cookie? There are many kinds of cookies, so there is lots of room for personal flavour to the name...

PoptartsNinja · 05-09-2005 07:03 PM

I say you call him "Charybdis", because without a name, he may well just be a hole in the ocean.

Will s/he let us pick a handle for him/her?

What about "Hexadecimator"?

Give him/her a name like one of the NPCs. There are plenty of them available.

Currently roleplaying, badgehunting, and laughing at the PvPers of CoX. lol, PvP.

Gotta ask what aspect of the game he(Will assume he till proven wrong) works with. I mean, if he does sounds, then he should have a name to do with the sonic powers..

If he's more into hardware, then something technical.

If he's an artist, something to do with that.

Call him Burnt L.E.D. Maybe he worked for Statesman at one time in the past, had a mental breakdown and now works for Lord Recluse.
