[QUOTE="cibet, post: 5736531, member: 83838"] I wish them good luck. This will be quite challenging. I hope it succeeds. Take this with a grain of salt, I really mean it to help but... ...not a great Bio for Mr. Dancey on the site. "the Steve Jobs of MMO Marketing." ?That is corny and borderline disrespectful considering Mr. Jobs recent passing. Not to mention nebulous and hardly true. Isn't the "Steve Jobs" of MMO marketing the guy that marketed WoW? Since that is the most successful MMO out there? I don't even know what "CCP's flagship science-fiction Sandbox MMO" is so I'm not sure how great an accomplishment increasing its subscribers by 50% is. Why not just state the real numbers? The rest of the write up does not exactly inspire confidence in an ability to lead this effort. SCUBA diving? Whats that got to do with this? 100 dives isn't even that many. Classic autodidact? What does "closed" mean for the companies listed? "Taught himself to program in", I could teach myself to play clarinet but am I skilled? "His life goal is finding the hardest available problems and solving them with a combination of creativity and rock-solid systems." Wow, so why not list some of the hard problems solved and describe one or two of the rock solid systems used to do so? Just a weird write up all around, I think it needs a rewrite. That Mark Kalmes guy seems pretty qualified for the effort. I'm not sure I would have the "frustrated" comment in there though. Sounds a little whiny. Good luck all. [/QUOTE]
