Default Leavin' on a jet plane
So, as I've told all of you many times by now, I'm Blizzard's CDev Publishing's Assistant intern. I'm literally posting this before I pack away my laptop and run out the door to catch my plane to California, and I start work on Tuesday.


While I will be around in some capacity or other, I probably wont have that much time to talk to you all, especially about any of the games or any upcoming products. I just want to say how much of a blast it's been getting to know you all over the past few years, and how dedicated I am to making sure that the team at Blizzard hears all of your questions and concerns. I have a inkling that you guys might feel my presence somehow, even if I don't have the time or wherewithal to post much anymore.

Until I return, try to behave yourselves for me, wont you?

It's really not even about fairness anymore, it is now glaringly obvious that Blizzard has no enthusiasm when it comes to expanding on Alliance lore. Their passion lies with the Horde, it is what they enjoy creating and telling stories about.

Alliance fans are just going to have to accept this or move on, this patch is proof of it.

Try not to die from the hazing process.

Right. You mind if I just print it out, have him sign it, scan it and email it to you?

Oh, and that Kael'thas novella too. And hint that if they're worried about trying to publish it as a novella, just write similar length stories for the other major characters in BC.

Congratulations again. I hope you enjoy your new job. And please, worry less about pleasing us here at SoL and more about telling good stories. You can't make everyone happy, but if you tell a memorable and powerful story you'll create something that'll endure in memories.

Tear 'em apart for us.

Verbally, that is. They need to be intact to correct their mistakes.

So apparently the one corporation that owns all of the real estate in Irvine imposes a curfew on all businesses that they HAVE to close by 9 so we had to go to a neighboring town just to find a McDonalds that was open.



This is going to be fun.
