You know, it’s always interesting to me when I’m out up at the local coffee house working and someone says “Hey man, chill out a bit…you work for yourself after all.†Therein lies the funny bit about owning your own business: yes, you get to make your own hours…the problem is all of those hours are work hours.I’ve been working from when I get up pretty much to when I crash out at some odd hour for more than a month now – often more than 18 hours a day. That’s some long hours folks, but I’m not on here to whine about it. I love what I do. Sure, I hate programming and I had to code pretty much all of the website you’re looking at now, but in the end I love gaming. I’m a gamer before I’m a game designer or manufacturer and I wanted a site that gives off more of a community feel than the typical gaming company. I wanted the forum to integrate with the site and I wanted all of you to be able to comment here on the rants without having to make a new account and whatnot. These are pretty small things, but they’re important to me because I care what you guys think about the game. I’ve always been of the opinion that once (as a designer) you release a game it’s no longer yours – it belongs to everyone who plays it. I hope once the book gets out that I’ll see more folks on here working with me on the Wiki site (I’ll be putting more into it soon) and whatnot. I hope that most of the site integrations work as well (drop a line if you find a problem) and I hope to see a lot of you on the tour in the next few months. Keep checking here for the tour dates and diary.
