No offense but the flaw in your reasoning is crystal clear.

I am an Anthropologist but couldn’t tell you much about how to dig up a site. It doesn’t mean I don’t know jack just that I would have to refer you to someone in that area with the experience. See my point?

Anyway I was not attacking Gervais; only stating my feelings that Mr Brooks and his opinion is the one I lean toward based on his apparently far superior experience.

It should be noted that David is Aaron's right hand man.

And David has had the most contact with strat of anyone here, except possibly Aaron himself.

I was just stating the fact that David has plenty of experience with the game industry. He may not have as much experience with the actual act of publishing the games, but that doesn't mean you can correctly say (or imply) that he has none.

I don’t think I was implying he had none. Maybe I worded it wrong or you read it wrong. I thought it was pretty clear in saying Mr. Brooks had more experience. Anyway I see this is becoming passionate so I am going to drop it here and now.

My two MAIN points remain: (1) I hope SE is not turned into a commercialized product for the mainstream game player; and by extension the aspects that appeal to people who create mods lost in the process. (2) I sincerely hope MM (Aaron) is not lost with this venture and the SE games die with it (him).

I would say that we have whipped this horse to death. Lets not dwell any more on the past, but rather look toward the future. I say allow it, the future, tell the story.

BTW does everyone remember the E3 beta of a flight sim that they released to retail as a final product and then lied about it saying it was a "Special Wal-Mart Version". You know the version that didn't work and they wouldn't support.

I think that speaks volumes.

That's fine with me Atrocities but I am not about to say Strategy First is a quality company, no matter how much I personally like Aaron.

The phrase "That is with the guy that has game design and publishing experience" directly implies that the other guy has none. I see now that you meant to say more, but its not what you had said, thus leading to my post refuting it.
