You scared me, I thought you were going to move to boards to better software...

Same.

"Moving?! AAAAHHH! DOOOOOM!"

Moving to new forum software would be awesome.

[/ QUOTE ]
Agreed. But apparently, as the decision would be company-wide from what I was told at the M&G, it's a hefty decision. But one that I heartily endorse!

Glad you're all getting settled in Ex! Seems like the lull before the holidays is probably the best time to do it to!

I'm glad you guys like your new offices.

And Posi... You're office rocks. Got cool nerd crap all over the place.

So, things may seem a bit quiet here on the boards, but over here...in the new digs, things are hopping.

Today earmarks the first day at the NCNC Studios and there is an air of excitement as we all unpack and set up in what will become our new home.

Wish us all luck as we set up.

Regards,

Ex

Pics or it didn't...DAMMIT!

Also, I note that Posi has RISK in his office. He should run a tournament.

Ahh, so thats why the devs have been so quiet. I wondered where all of the post-release buzz was this year since there is normally a flurry of activity once an issue is finished. Good luck with the move, hope you don't give the IT guys too much of a headache

Finding out my gamertag is not impossible without me posting in the Gamertag Exchange. I know one CoH player who already found it and added me to his friends list. It just takes a little internet savvy and digging.

What I find encouraging is that the lead designer on CoX is an avid gamer himself and has excellent taste in games, it seems. Good to know we have someone who genuinely understands working at the top rather than a 'business man'.

So then, once you're all settled in can we expect some tasty clues for what we can expect in 2008 please? We know you already have plans drawn up, even if they are rough plans.

edited: wow, it only took me 3 years to finally get to post first after a red name lol

Nice new digs! Congrats on the move. Now hurry up and get unpacked so you can go back to making more awesome stuff for us

I think given the circumstances the majority of the staff will probably be on a hard earned holiday with only Posi and the bosses doing any kind of work. I'd imagine there is a ton of paperwork and organising needed since they changed buildings and employers.

The true reason for the "Double Prestige Reward" glitch. They needed it to spice up thier own headquarters.

Erm, am I the only one seeing Ex's pics as generic Photobucket links that only go to the main Photobucket page?

... *shrug* ... then again, the way I see it is: if you don't add your 'tag, you'd prefer it not be known. Ergo, I don't (and won't) go looking. ^_^ It's an opt-in list, not an opt-out list.

Mostly I wanted to drag you in there to join our general yammering-about-Xbox games, not to pester you about Co*. Now if you'll excuse me, Mass Effect is calling to me ... ^_^

Merry Moving... Week!

I wish my office looked like Posi's, all I get are Far Side calendars

Positron looks like he's in one of those acrylic rodent cages they have at the pet stores.

Okay, since it is obviously only affecting me, can someone repost links to the images Ex Libris posted? Unless I quote her message, which reveals the HTML, the links in her posts all point to the main Photobucket page, not to the pics she actually linked to (and if I try pasting the links from the HTML code it just times out trying to pull up the images).

Why do they keep you behind glass though? Did they at least put some air holes so you can breathe?

You guys have crappy keyboards I see. You should upgrade.

Good luck with the move!

[/ QUOTE ]

While certainly not as nice as, say, a G15, those little Dell USB keyboards are actually pretty nice.

They're tiny since the bezel conforms to the shape of the keyboard, yet the keyboard itself is still full-sized. They're also very easy to clean. The keys have a nice range of movement and are nicely weighted so if you touch type, you almost never make accidental 'landing' strikes.

While they come standard with most 'business-class' Dell workstation PCs these days. I wouldn't mind buying one separate to use as a 'lug-around' keyboard for configuring headless machines.

Now the Dell machines themselves tend to have some crappy hardware. The on-board audio for the Optiplex line is notoriously flaky.

Hey, Positron has the Legendary Cat Helmet on the shelf. That's kind of cool. Is he a fan of Halo and/or cats?

[/ QUOTE ]

He also has a copy of Risk and Talisman.

I can't play Talisman anymore unless there's /lots/ of booze involved. It helps make the hurting stop sooner.
