Congrats to Chris (known to some as Remixor) on his new job

*Jake* · 07-25-2005, 01:22 PM

Dunno if you guys saw this but Chris was just hired on at Shacknews as their Console editor... check it out. Cool stuff.

Wormsie · 07-25-2005, 01:29 PM

Idle Theumbs!

I guess you have to rename your site now, huh...

(see the top right corner of thumb right now for proof)

gillyruless · 07-25-2005, 01:34 PM

God damn it! You guys are so gonna get me fired. I have no idea why but shacknews.com is one of the sites blocked by the filtering stftware my company runs on the proxy server. Now the goons from copr. security will think that I visited a porn site or something.

Congrats, Chris!

Kolzig · 07-25-2005, 01:36 PM

Holy...

So Chris went to the "big leagues" now.
First of all, I already like Remo A LOT more than I liked Matias the former LNC guy.

Congrats Chris!

I guess this means the end for Chris' Thumbs career, or will it?

Erwin_Br · 07-25-2005, 01:37 PM

Congrats, Chris! But uh, what's with all the Dutch chiefs? First Marek, and now Maarten?

I suppose congrats are required.

Good Luck dude.

I hate Shacknews it's crap, but maybe he'll turn it around.

SoccerDude28 · 07-25-2005, 02:23 PM

well done chris, all the best!

remixor · 07-27-2005, 12:30 AM

Thanks, guys

Getting this job was pretty exciting but is also quite intimidating. It's funny to think that were it not for Adventure Gamers I never would have gotten the opportunity...

***fov*** · 07-27-2005, 06:26 AM

Remember that when you get your first paycheck.

Intrepid Homoludens · 07-27-2005, 11:11 AM

congrats, you brat!

I already formally congratted you in another thread.

YOU OWE US YOUR FIRST-BORN!

Now you've got a cushy job that requires no effort (journalism, as everyone knows, is the easiest job ever!) you should come back to IRC some time. You're missed!
