Reply With QuoteDo you have a suggestion? How do you get people to give you money, without expecting any sort of timeframe on the return?Originally Posted by Goladus
I know what you're saying, but I still strongly disagree.It's not a crutch... it's financial reality. If you want money, people are going to want to expect results. What I outlined is at a very high level, not something your average grunt is going to be privileged to.
It may be a reality now, but it's a limitation in the way we think about money and work, and there's got to be a better way to do it.

Green splinted mail and a sword covered in lighter fluid, probably.While reading this I was reminded of the Madtv skit where george lucas was interviewed while wearing an ewok costume.
I wonder what kind of costume Brad wears as his 'inspiration suit' ?
Oh, and someone needs to tell Loonie-tunes McQuaid that the era of the garage-programmer team churning out the next mainstreem hit fueled by pizza & jolt is at least a decade dead.

Any one who sees him post anywhere, please post links. I want to watch the circus that comes out of that thread.Originally Posted by Brad McQuaid
I'll be posting on message boards, working with the creative/marketing team on Vanguard, perhaps future things... projects, and working as a consultant in that area. Which are some of the things I really enjoy like posting on message boards.
I want to perform as one of the circus clowns.
“Our opponent is an alien starship packed with atomic bomc,” I said. “We have a protractor. Okay, I'll go home and see if I can scrounge up a ruler and a piece of string.”
He's been seen lurking on the FOH and Silky Venom boards, so I'm guessing it won't be much longer.
I already said I don't have an answer to that. That doesn't make the point invalid.
A cookie buried fist deep in your a hole maybe.
That dude ain't posting anything anywhere for a while if he knows what's good for him...

A guy at F13 posted this comment:
There's really no excuse if he didnt.slog
I wish you had asked him if he every played WoW....
Everything else is simply spin. It doesn't really matter now, anyway. The guy is finished as a major player and so are most of his theories and ideas.
WoW and LOTRO has shown the way and there's no turning back.
Hey, I didn't say what KIND of cookie.
I'd hit it...
if I wasn't married..
and working with my wife.
What a fucking idiot.

With funding being the problem that it was, it's a damn shame they didn't have someone running around with a camera to record all of the shit that was going on and sell the rights to it for a reality tv show. They'd have gotten another month or two dev time easy.
You left out "in a company with only 97 other people" after the with my wife part.
Hmm, I can't find the one I was thinking of online. She's probably got a MySpace page, knowing her, but who knows what her name would be.
Blondgirl, cutegirl, flowergirl, girlpower, sexygirl, should I continue?

Apallohadas - You're a bunch of dirty old men. Now make room for the king!
Branaman - Cows can be annoying, they step on you, and lick your sweat off.
Rombus - PS: Zedd, you can think what you want but I'll let you put sand in my V any time you want.
Heh. I'm sure he will on FOH. Brad would get eaten alive here. Graffe's posters would have a field day with him.

Good lord he actually thinks MS wanting a schedule was a bad thing. Not having any sort of schedule is probably what killed VG.
I'm seeing a pattern here ...
Seriously. When you read about how big projects work at the successful game companies, there all these checks and balances to maintain schedules.
