As it has been two years since I became lead developer, I thought it might be fun to run an AMA.
The concept is pretty simple, but there are a few caveats. You may of course ask me anything, however I will answer with a "nope" or be vague if you ask about specific details on future storyline developments or inRL stuff. Examples of such queries are asking if or when the Kempeitai will succeed in capturing Planet Stuttgart from the Gaians instead of destroying it, or for my home address.
Additionally, since timezones are weird and so are everybody's schedules, this thread will probably be kept open for a number of days. Perhaps until midnight after Friday? We'll see. Also if there are a lot of questions, it may take me a while to answer. If it gets too crazy, I might do what Alley did years ago and set up a Google Form for further question taking. The fact that I'm not doing so to begin with may warrant questions to my sanity.
Due to the nature of forums and QuoteWars, please make a note alongside your questions if you would prefer that I reply with a post of my own, or edit my response into yours. The former works better for protracted conversations; the latter if you just want a simple answer. If you do not comment your preference, I will choose.
Finally, as the thread gets longer, please read through other questions and answers in case what you're looking to say might have already been gotten to.
EDIT: I will be responding in posts with my old UC purple, rather than Dev gold, as they are personal statements and opinions rather than some kind of edict.
Begin!
