Some serious changes have been made to the cloaking device in BETA... I seriously, need some feedback on those changes.
Since Gideon has left for other things... I plan to start taking control of the development process again beginning with a developer meeting starting next tuesday. This just means, that I will be the one handing out tasks and assigning work to people if they want to help...
I'm getting pretty damn tired of the some of the bad-mouthing that some of the development staff has been expressing in the forums and chat. So, I feel that I must now defend myself...
Gideon complained often about my lack of communications, which is not really true. The last email I received from gideon was back on october 2nd, I've replied to each and every email he has sent with questions concerning the development process. Truthfully, the lack of communication was probably lacking on both sides... and the liason concept that was suppost to insulate me from the getting hammered by emails was not working.
Anyway, Gideon is no longer a developer... I wish him the best of luck on his adventures with Selvarian.
Those developers who are still remaining... please be sure to attend the developer meeting on Tuesday. If you are not there, then please email me or you may run the risk of having your developer flags pulled as well.
Lastly, plan on me being involved a great deal more in the development process, I'm no flunky when it comes to game design skills either... I'm planning to spear-head the entire 1.483 balance patch myself.

Funny.. I thought we'd already done all that, with the Refit design documents.. is that off the table now?

Wow, talk about laying down the law.
Shig... uhh... in private bro? LOL. Just a suggestion - seems that F wants folks to be alil more discrete if they are in a position of authority.
GL faust - if ya need any help from a former comp sci student (hated the business end of it... dropped before I learned anything substantial, but I still have the book!)... oh wait everyone & their mother has already offered to help huh.... I offer NOT TO HELP! Just to be unique!
