Hey arryn, are you the same from the Apolyton civ 3 forums?

Ah, and you don't want to compete against your peer?

No. It's because I've known that Zen is clearly associated with Illwinter, beyond any reasonable doubt. While it is normally mandatory policy that I don't play staff, I was willing to suspend this on the grounds that Illwinter was supposed to be different.

They are not.

Therefore, I do not play staff. He may be a cool guy and all, but rules are rules.

Yes, all of his comments suggest that he is associated with them. That says "staff" to me. For this reason, and in light of Illwinter's recent behavior which has forced me to more critically evaluate the matter, such a game is no longer a viable option.

AFAIK, he's not staff. He is a moderator here, and does perform other duties for them, however. It's not like he's made it any big secret or anything.

And, Blitz, you really should work on presentation.

Er, the fact that he's a moderator and IIRC he's a playtester isn't enough for you to tell he's affiliated with them?

Without pay, it'd be hard to say he's 'staff'. I guess it depends on your definition. If you define it as 'performs duties for them', you don't need to make insinuations here or there; his name listed as one of the Moderators should be enough, shouldn't it?

No, though I did play Civ3 for many months after it first came out.

I'm the Arryn who was in E&B (though I was best known as Sharia, an Officer in the Executives of Infiniti guild in the Andromeda galaxy, playing a L124+ Progen Sentinel), and I was also in SWG beta (and best known as Sharia the armorsmith after release).

That was done tongue in cheek, and shouldn't be taken as anything else. I like Zen, even if he does back the devs on everything

I confused you with Arrian, someone who has a similar writing style. Hi anyway lol
