Thank you everyone, and thank you Paragon

How much would the community have to donate to get you and golden girl to have makeup sex?

Thank you for your stories, Doc. I've enjoyed them.

Thanks for sharing your personal story with all of us. I loved all the new content that you all were producing. Everything was top notch, from the writing, to the mission mechanics, to the design of the new zones.

You and Fearghas share an intense high-five

*Sobs yet again*

All the best for the future Sean/Fearghas/Doc Aeon. Sorry for giving you such a hard time over the years, and thanks for the memories.

can we know what was to come of the prae hamidon and astral christy/empyrian michaels group. or anything else really.

I hadn't realized that everyone really got the boot over this. I was thinking of you and how you'd been working on the super secret new project and assumed that was still an on-going deal... and yet that's gone too. Very Sad.

Best of luck to you in the future though!

And if you ever get stuck at some point in your life and feel down, look back and know just how much your "mere" wage-work meant to so many of us and then feel better, ok?

/load up DrAeon module in AE, finds it free of high-reward mobs and shrugs.



Thanks for the writing, which has become progressively better over the years.
Dark Astoria was crazy good.

Thank you. For all the work on the stories, for putting up with our kvetching, for communicating with us on the forums.

I'm glad you had this opportunity, sad it's ending, and hopeful for your future. Godspeed.

Here's my favorite Sean McCann story. Joe (Hero 1) had been mentoring McSean (and wow, how awesome of a mentoring experience is that?), and to help with that we removed a panel from the cube wall between them so they could talk at will. Well, Hero 1 got the chance to move to another project, and eventually he came to me and said that while he loved working with Sean, he needed to focus on his work, and did I have any advice on how to get Sean some more independence. I said I would take care of it, so I went and found the missing cube panel, walked into Joe's cube, looked Sean in the eye through the wall and said, "I'm cutting the apron strings, McSean" and put the panel in place. I'll never forget the look on his face (or Joe's chuckle).

I will of course also never forget the great writing and totally fearless way Sean jumped into any design challenge. He made that engine do so many things we were convinced it could never do. He found so many ways to break the game that we had trouble keeping up, but I was determined to make sure we tried to keep up because he could make that gray lumbering beast of an engine sing with every "one little request".

You sure didn't need the apron strings any more, then. Go be amazing some more, Sean.

Thanks Doc, it has been a great ride... And from no on... What´s up, Doc?

Took me a bit, but I finally made redside and got to see your city. Nice globe, Doc.

Thanks for the hard work and love of the game.

Your story makes the departure seem even crueler. It's awesome that Synapse just kind of plucked you out of the crowd, and it makes me intensely interested in which Mission Architect entries are yours, so that I can peruse the "Making Of" so to speak before the opportunity is no longer available.

It's been my longstanding opinion that what you've all produced has gotten consistently better and more engaging. Some folks might not always like the presentation, but I'm perfectly willing to be a "reader". Just opening the book and seeing it through to the end is an enjoyable exercise to me.

Thank you, McSean. ;] I enjoyed the hell outta newDA, and having you on the coffee talks. Best of luck to you in the future.
