Default Welcome House of Tales & Martin Gantefoehr

Martin Gantefoehr and the company he co-founded - House of Tales are both familiar names to those who frequent the forums and such here at AdventureGamers.


It is a pleasure to have someone so articulate and witty available to field questions by such an unruly "mob"... err I mean group. Here's your chance to get some quality info about Moment of Silence, HoT and points in between.


We also have plenty of beer, bar food. and cocktails being prepared for later on... and cheese, lots of cheese for Marek if he drops in.

Welcome Martin!

Thumbs up

Welcome, Martin!

Before anything else, a heartfelt congratulations on Moment of Silence! (Hand shakes, back pats, and high fives all around). Truly exciting times for House of Tales, and the community overall.

It's great to have you with us for the developer brain picking chat. You know the old adage that "there's no such thing as a dumb question?" Well, please keep that in mind when I post, because I'll probably be straining the truthfulness of that expression.

Lucky for you, the rest of the AGers will undoubtedly be posing the really insightful, penetrating questions, so we're thrilled you're around for a dialogue.

Jack

Hey!

Boy, am I drunk.

Well, actually, no. I'm not drunk. I'm just really happy to be here with you. Thanks for the invitation, Adventure Gamers!

Hey all! You want me to do this in German, huh? With lots of Umlauts? No problem: ÄÄÜÜÖÖ.

Ah, beautiful.

Danke, daß Ihr alle da seid!

I'd prefer Swedish thank you. You would be able to write umlauts then too.

Note to blue corner: let's not wave the pitchforks today. It's always fun until someone loses an eye.

That said, let the wrestling begin! Who brought the jello?

Okay, check this out: We got the drinks, we got the snacks and we got the spankin. Name one person who you connect with all these things.

And after that, START THINKING ABOUT WHERE THE HELL THAT PERSON IS!!! :eek:
