Well, we know that BaB's is working over at Cryptic now. He was kind enough to provide us with some information about their reaction to the shutdown in the first few days after the announcement.
Writer of In-Game fiction: Just Completed: My Summer Vacation. My older things are now being archived at Fanfiction.net http://www.fanfiction.net/~jwbullfrog until I come up with a better solution.
I believe BAB posted and mentioned that he's at Cryptic, now.

BAB and Castle have already been covered, and we all know Jack is still at Cryptic.
pohsyb went to work for Apple when he left. He's still there according to his FB page.
Jay left to work at Glu Mobile and appears to still be there.
As far as I know, Geko is still at Cryptic. I heard poz may have left Cryptic but I haven't heard what he's doing now, he could just be on vacation.
Ex Libris is in Nashville working for Henderson Community Consulting the last notice I got.
Niviene is still with Zynga as far as I know. I haven't heard if anyone in the Bay Area was affected by their closures of studios.
No others are coming to mind at the moment.
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.

Those appear to be mainly in Austin & Boston, so the Bay area may be "safe" for now.

Anyone know what happened to Cricket?
Good to see most found jobs and doing well it seems. Knew they would have no trouble finding another job with the talent they displayed here.

Not sure if Avatea counts as a dev or more of a community moderator like Zwill, but she was a redname. She took a job in China IIRC.
CuppaJo had been moved to Tabula Rasa community, but well... then to Aion, but I don't know if she's still there or not.

I thought that they left NCsoft after Dungeon Runners.
Anyways, they are now Director of Community at ZeniMax Online Studios.

I heard Ocho is working for SOE.
I was in Las Vegas last weekend and I wanted to see if I can find him at SOE Live. Instead I ran into another Justice player there.

Left NCSoft in August 2008 after having been Associate Producer on Dungeon Runners.
Was a Producer at 2K Games from September 2008 to October 2009.
Was Director of Quality Assurance and Producer at Red Fly Studio from February 2010 to September 2011.
Was Production Manager at Vigil Games for Darksiders 2 and Dark Millenium Online from September 2011 to May 2012.
Is currently Director of Community at ZeniMax Online Studios (since May 2012).
Nothing I've seen from Cuppa via Twitter or anywhere else, nor any searches online show any involvement with Aion.

Slight thread derail, but I asked about this on new Zwil's UStream (or whatever it's called now) the other day and he said he couldn't answer it. Does anyone know which Paragon employees were hired by Cryptic?
Another thread got me thinking this... where are the devs who left CoH BEFORE the announcement?
BABs?
Castle?
Geko
Pohsyb
JLove (Who truly is sexy)
Statesman - I know he is currently CEO of Cryptic.
Etc etc
Anyone know where the most recent Devs have moved on to since 8/31 if they have found new jobs?
