Hello Everybody,
I would like to annouce that Nibor21 is taking over on the Project Team side of things. That also means that he is now a GM, though he will not be running quests for us.
He is now leading the Project Team. During this time of transition he, Pankoki, and Dorganath will be working very closely together to make sure that things with V3 are resolved and the module transfer/creation is handled smoothly. He is already working on a new version and has been working with them very closely for some time. Please give Nibor the support he needs as he moves foward in his new duties.
Nibor has quite a lot of experience with scripting, module merging, the various tools we use for handling the modules, and he also has PW experience. This is a good fit for us and I think it will be a long and healthy working relationship for all of us and I think it will help the community in a large way. Pankoki and Dorganath will both still be around to answer questions when they come up.
Welcome to your new duties Nibor!
-
Congrats on the promotion.

Congrats Nibor!

I wanted to just check something out. Was this a promotion that we should be congratulating you? Or is it a sentence to long hours with no pay and little thanks? Perhaps you were evil in a former life? Anyway, this is a fantastic place to dream in and thanks for helping it to continue.

Congratulations! :)

@OldBear, now that was one of the best questions I have seen in a long while. So much truth to it...hehe :)
-
My answer to Oldbear would be...
Any time a right person is put in the right place for the right reason, not for pay or thanks, but to enhance people's leisure time and make valuable contributions, always deserves a congratulations. However, the congratulations may go to Leanthar for having this person volunteer or it may go to Dorg and Pan for having more help. Not necessarily to the person getting the promotion.
It is always an honor to step up and help a community that you care for...so a congratulations to Nibor would be appropriate.
To amend my previous post and to facilitate Oldbear's linje of thinking...
Congratulations to your new sentence!
-
Very well said Twidget....
But OldBear is quite right as well ;)
-
Don't listen to them Nibor, you'll be having lots of fun-stration!

Hi All.
I just want to say a few things.
Firstly, thank you for all the kind words of congratulations.
Secondly thanks to Project Team, especially Dorg and Leanthar who have done so much to make me feel welcome and given me this opportunity.
It is with some trepidation I accept this role not just because it will be demanding but because Dorg boots are absolutely massive and I am concerned if I can fill them nearly as well as he has. Luckily I am only taking over a small amount of the duties he has been doing so well up to now.
That said I will be working with a brilliant team who, as they have demonstrated time and time again can produce systems that rival anything a professional development can do. I hope with the help of the Team, I won't drop the ball too many times.
The initial goals of the team are to fix some bugs and get v3 on a stable footing where it is balanced, stable and fun.
Once that is done we have some new systems that we want to put in place that we think are going to add a lot to the world.
As project team lead I am hoping to put my stamp on things a little, but and this is most important, only to do so if it adds to the world we love and helps maintain its feeling of what Layonara is. (That said I want see all mentions of armor changed to armour, and all mentions of gray turned to grey ;)).
Once again I need state that I will merely be a member of a team. If you go to the circus, everyone sees the ringmaster and admires him, but he would be a sad lonely man without the rest of the troupe.
We have our lion tamers, wrestling to control the hakpack and create areas. We have our acrobats who can juggle a million lines of code and do it while swinging on the high wire. We have people waiting to be shot out a cannon by trying to get NWN to do things it was never originally meant to do. Oh and we are all clowns.....
On a final note following on from OldBear's post - Leanthar is a great boss to work for. He provides an interesting and challenging environment to work in. Now if only the salary didn't suck so much....

You can have my gray armor when you pry it from my cold, dead hands... >:/

Even though I'm rather late to post here, I'm going to say thank you, rather than congratulations.

Now talan has more time to devote to making my clerics life a living hell.
