Thanks. I'm quite excited to be back, thanks to the effort you and everyone have been putting into the game in my absence. Well done. To be honest, lots of the posts on the developer forums look very technical, either in terms of science or programming. I'm not sure I'd be able to follow that. I don't really feel fully caught up yet (only had a quick look through everything), so maybe I'd be able to contribute more once I've caught up. So, maybe I could join the tester team as ‘That guy with the unreasonably large monitor’. Is that role open? Is this the one? There's also this one: EDIT: I really made that page. Wow. Past me is actually pretty good.

Hi Poisson! Looks like we've both been resurrected in this new age of progress and dev blogs.

That max title length. Hi. I'm back after NickTheNick did the email equivalent of poking me with a stick. Maybe it was the poke I needed. I'm not sure where I'm going with this metaphor. Not sure how much I'll participate in discussion, since keeping up with everything is hard, keeping up with not-everything makes it harder to post, and I'm quite busy in life at the moment. I'm going to try and stick around a bit, at least. Really impressed by the progress that's been made in the past year, though. The new forums make everything seem more organised (though the dev forum is such a mobile site!). The game's graphics have really improved (though the UI breaks slightly at 2880 × 1800 ). The discussion going on over at the dev forums is very practical, it's good to see how involved everyone is over there. So, I've now got some skills at programming, but with high-level languages (because manual memory management, ugh), and my several attempts at making a game didn't really go anywhere (too overambitious or something), so Thrive is sort of opposite to what I'm any good at. So I'm probably still just an ideas guy, but maybe with more technical knowledge. See you around the forums. EDIT: I'll work on a shorter version of that signature at some point. EDIT2: No unicode support… Shame.
