I pose unto thee a question asked in whispers by many a light. An answer so sought after that people have been lost on the path to learn its truth!
Who is the greatest Sigil employee of them all?!
Will it be fair Glip? Perhaps Taranis the Flame-man? Or maybe Mr McQuaid himself!
Choose wisely ...
(I refer thee here (http://www.sigil.com/cat_our_team.php) to review the contenders.)

In the "points against her" column, is she the one we blame for Glip?

I have always had a soft spot for Taranis.
I think originally it was his comments about Asheron's Call 1 that did it. As the microsoft producer linky person he would drop by to tease us with how excited he was. And if a thread mentioned any of the merits of AC1, such as monthly stories and such, he would be in there like a shot, adding the odd comment here and there. He seemed so friendly, he really did do Microsoft proud.
And then his disappeared from posting ... *duh duh duuuuh*
Only to be hired by Sigil! Awesome!
Go, go Jon Grande, my #1 Sigil employee! :)

Ahh, good for her.
I always respected the job that the Senior Game Designers (like Fisher and Poe) do. It seems like a LOT of responsibility and design combined with a LOT of work.
(psst, is that the right answer for beta?)

I can officially say that my favorite Sigil member is still Brad. Glip's cool with his lock-bats, and everyone does an amazing job, but so far it's still ol' Aradune. Thta being said I have never been to Fanguard, if I did maybe my choice would be different.

Wow this is a tough question....
Brad rocks, Jeff Rocks...but for different reasons than brad..., Zak is extremely entertaining when he gets into storytelling mode...Cindy so happy and friendly, Paul is awesome too...
I can't decide, this is like asking me my favorite type of ice cream...

Cindy :)
hehe 'nuff said. ;)

Weeell .. maybe you should have gone for the top-dog? Im not sure how much weight Fisher and Poe might hold with beta selection, but the wide shoot is probably in your favour. :)

No, NO, Brad is too easy an answer, as well as being too obvious.

Justin Deeb... who else? a guy who cheated the whole sigil staff to pay him 1000$ to have his hair cut...
Salim Grant is next, since he was able to convince sigil employees to donate the money.

Convince? That makes it sound like they have a choice! Just look at the PotD for 9/16/05 for his reaction to small time petty cookie theft!

I reserve final judgement until I can attend a Fanguard and meet some people face to face, however, if I had to pick I would pick Salim. The link in my sig should tell you why.

Tagad because he nails the point down and gets out.
His hit and run style is the ultimate. (http://www.silkyvenom.com/?page=devtracker&devid=51)

From my personal experiences with meeting some of them in person, it's a very hard decision :confused:
Cindy was incredibly friendly and welcoming, certainly making the whole experience quite smooth. Many various conversations with her and other folks that dropped by. Jon and Leon were very fun to talk with as well, mainly observing their antics while playing the game demos. Of the people there, Marc was probably my favourite non-community rep Sigilite as he had a lot of very interesting things to say and show. And then ofcourse Travis' stories weren't to be missed either :D It's definately too hard to decide, they're all great people. I haven't met him yet, but from reading his posts I'm certain I'd enjoy having a long conversation with Brad. Or Todd, since we share the same interests and aspirations!
I'm done now :o
