Staff announcements
Just a few updates on our Adventure Gamers team:
First of all, I'm extremely happy to welcome two new News Updaters to our team, both of whom you're all quite familiar with: Chris Remo, otherwise known as Remixor, and Jake Rodkin, otherwise known as...uh, Jake. They will help us continue to be the most reliable source for adventure news coverage. Also, I want to let everyone know that Jim Saighman, aka BacardiJim, has resigned from our writing staff to pursue an opportunity with another website that he feels is more suited to him. Speaking for Marek and myself, I want to say that we appreciated his writing skill and the dedication he brought to our staff, and will miss him. We wish him the best. We are always looking for new writers. If you're interested in a position, please send an e-mail to [email protected] and tell us a bit about yourself and your adventure gaming knowledge and history. Happy adventuring to all.

Tactlessly understated

That guy couldn't take bib humor, so it seems... I hope his site is adequately geared towards Methuselahs of all ages... While I didn't really care about his hubris while he was here, this really pisses me off.

Congrats to Remixor and Jake-- you've been promoted
Are we at liberty to know what Jim is going to be writing for now? I really am going to miss his writing style, and I'd like to see what new project he is working on. Anyone know? |

I thought Evan would be slightly more subtle about it, like, not announcing it at all but okay. I think Jim's joined Ray Ivey unless I'm mistaken?

As I already told you on IRC (you know IRC, the thing none of you bastards ever go on? ), congratulations, Remo. Same goes out to Jake.

It would be fun if Jake posted some Sam & Max news on samandmax.net, then quoted it on mixnmojo.com, and then quoted the Mixnmojo report on Adventure Gamers.
Wait, I think this guy has gotten too powerful. Guards!!! |

You know I did see the two of them walking around, and ...
Jake was muttering "All your site are belong to us" while Remixor was shouting "We are searching for a crazy man!!" Uhmm anyone seen Marek?? :eek: |
