Thanks for the mention.  For those curious, I haven't been with Sigil since mid-March. I started working at Treyarch / Activision, as a multiplayer programmer on their upcoming James Bond title a little over three weeks ago.
I learned alot working on Vanguard, and there were good times (voluntary 96 hour work week) and bad times (mandatory 86 hour work week). In the end, I wish most of my former co-workers well, and hope they make it through these difficult times without too much difficulty.

I was wondering where you went. You didn't update your blog.

I feel sorry for the good people who lost their jobs but I can't help but feel sorry for the people who have to waltz back into SOE headquarters that they left years earlier. I'm sure some of the people they used to work with have been promoted and have that nice office with the view, and you know theres always that one jerk by the watercooler whos gonna snicker while he says "How you been!"

This Chicken has Flown the Coop!
Unfortunately, I was not chosen to continue with the Vanguard program either. I wish the team the best of luck. And would like to thank all of you for the interest in the Crimson Fellowship. I will miss it very much! But, after nearly seven years in the industry I am not ready to hang up my hat yet. I am sure I will see you all on the flip side!

Best of luck, guys, especially Elrar. I'm sorry that so much good work came to a short end, but I still appreciate all the communications and discussion.
