I'm not quite as fancy at it as other people are, but I do the illumination on award scrolls for our local group. I linked my deviant art site to my profile that has pictures of them. Though I still need to put up the one scroll I did all the illumination/painting and calligraphy for. I'm just too lazy to actually get it up. Very cool work! Love the scrolls. The minis are cool too

I had been meaning to put them up in some form or another for ages now. I just didn't want to deal with my limited photography skills and equipment. But seeing yours really inspired me!

And you've gotten me inspired to go paint the several unpainted minis I have calling my name ; ).

As folks are laying out MMO experience, I figured I'll note I'm at close to 0. I played the beta of WoW and that's about it. PFO is the first one tthat's really grabbed my interest. I'm looking forward to seeing the actual mechanics of the system so I can break them down for maximization (I'm an MBA/program manager/numbers kind of guy that works for the government--I'll have the whole system broken out into a spreadsheet for analysis ASAP!).
I'm in for alpha testing, with full expectation of what that brings since my actual job is in software testing (I don't do the actual work--I just make sure the budget, contracts, and HR are all top-notch so the real workers can get the job down without admin/hassle).

You might check Eve Online out. I've heard it referred to as "Spread sheets in Space" <grin> I can hook you up with a 21 day trial if your interested. It's actually a cool game.

Yeah, that'd be great actually. I'd like to get some idea of the "business process" behind the game and considering Ryan's role in Eve it's probably a good area for "market research" on the topic. Thanks!

Ok, anyone that wants to use this can. Just click this link and sign up, install etc.. secure.eveonline.com/trial/?invc=ebb813d3-e07a-4cb6-9a15-f64e158fe94 What that does is it lets you sign up, get 21 day trial, under my name. Then if you were to subscribe I get this thing called a Plex. You've heard about them I'm sure . I can sell it for 500,000,000 isk. That's a LOT of Money! So I split it with you, or whoever signs up. Without using that link you can only get a 14 day trial.

Who knows with the new platform you may be able to run PFO on your phone by the time it comes out Funny about the snow we get 1" and half the country grinds to a halt. Not sure whether we are really that incompetant or just enjoy the excuse of a day off work! Ruf

Rufus. I think just about every city goes through that "1 inch snow freak-out" phase.

We get snow every year in many of our locations, and the first snow of the year always freaks people out. It's kind of funny. Though after that, they don't care any more and drive just fine til the first ice storm. I think I'll take snow over the ice storms we get, but that's because I commute to the next town 30 miles over for work.
