In retrospect I'm even happier we had that hike, or I'd not gotten to see you at all. I'm glad the Ninja worked out and I deeply regret not being able to fulfill my leerily pseudo-accepted Leeeeroy obligations. :) I ended up not attending a single session myself, and the only party I was at is the one we threw at Three Rings.

I’m glad the Ninja worked out and I deeply regret not being able to fulfill my leerily pseudo-accepted Leeeeroy obligations. :)

I'd never heard of that guy's game before (Seascape or something like that?) but that was some impressive-sounding revenue alrighty. Hi Brenden,

I talked about it for a good 15 minutes or so on VirginWorlds show 59. I'm still vaguely uncomfortable with the whole item sales/microtransactions model, but I've warmed to it a little since the roundtable. Actually, I think I'd warm to anything that could get me $80m a year just by selling rum and fruit.
