LJ> Keep wishing.  I had a hard enough time getting them to send me to 
Orlando
 LJ> for the Roland/Edirol GS Developers Conference, and that's real work.
  You could claim that it's "future employee scanning!"  I WOULD like to work 
for you guys, hopefully as a game designer someday.  By the way, what would 
you guys look for in a designer?  Is computer science the key, or is writing 
skill better?  Mind you, it's not like 3D Realms is exactly known for its 
intricate plots, but it could help for design docs, and if you ever hope to 
develop a real story-based game
 LJ> Well, Lo Wang gets his chance in front of a microphone, sort of.  That's

  So he's either A) doing Karaoke, B) got a surprise cutscene involving a 
microphone, or C) none of the above, and I look like a fool.

styles.

  Zucker... that reminds me, ever hear of the band Zuckerbaby?  They're a 
Canadian band (as most good bands are), so you'd have to watch MuchMusic to 
see them.  And no, I'm not suggesting their music be put in DNF.  :-)
  My big question is, if Mr. Chin thinks SW is racist, how come he didn't 
decry the sterotyping in Redneck Rampage, Interstate '76, or in the upcoming 
Daikatana ("Superfly Johnson" says it all)?  Didn't he ever grasp the concept 
that a racist company wouldn't portray YOUR character as South-East Asian, 
only the enemies?
  Speaking of Daikatana, which future 3D game (from other companies, ) 
are you looking forward to?  For me, it's Quake II.  They seem to have done 
so many improvements that it'll be hard to top, unless you people at 3DR 
out-feature and out-polygon them.
PS  Would Raggadeath or Face the Pain be good bands for DNF?  They've got a 
very heavy rock style, the former being very interesting because they have a 
touch of voodoo in their songs.  Perfect if you've got a Voodoo chipset card!
