i'm such an idiot for not asking for his name! but i'm getting ahead of myself.

so i was working last week. i'm a server at Red Robin in san jose. i walk out from the back and at a table is a man wearing a shirt with the round CoH symbol on it. i walk up to the table and tell the man how much i love the game and ask him if he plays. he replies to me that he actually works on the game. i geek out for a while and we talk about how i17 just went into open beta and how i can't wait for demon summoning. i shake his hand and went back to take care of my tables.

wasn't until hours later that i realized i forgot to ask for his name. D'oh!

Well, you could examine all the available videos from panels and cons of our Devs to see if you recognize them. Of course, they were probably one of the myriad of unknowns...

Oh hey, that was me.

That's the 3rd time I've run into a player in real life, and it never stops being awesome and shocking.

He's actually been seen by players "in the wild" more often than that. However, since he was laughing manically to himself as he practiced his dual-wield and whip moves while walking down the street, the players wisely turned and ran away...

Dual wielding whips? *ponders* Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

The man has two children and a lovely wife. I think he needs to stay in more.






If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Black Pebble is my new hero.

For who, us or you? I imagine it would be awesome and Shocking. Though I'd probably have to move a little closer to mountain view for it to happen more frequently. As it is I'm on the other side of the bay.

Hey, if they're letting BAB venture into the outside world it means Going Rogue must be coming along well! At any rate, cool story. :-)
