Speaking of random emails from Ryan a few years ago I wrote into the bombcast asking some question and he emailed me back with a funny reply.


It was neat knowing they dont just delete all the emails that dont make the bombcast and they actually reply to a few of them if they are not good enough.



And I guess now that I think of it so far I have been Emailed by Ryan, PM'ed by Patrick, got a reply to a question from Jeff and made a joke about flight sticks that got a reply from Vinny when people where making racing wheel jokes and I said they should get a flight stick instead.


All I need is to call out Brad for sucking at games / spoiling something to get his attention and I will have completed the giantbomb attention seeking grand slam!











Oh god I REALLY need to get out more.

I wouldn't mind watching the Diablo 3 stream at least until they reach the point where the beta ended but streaming video at work is probably a really bad idea...

i've met, shaken hands with, and spoken at length with each of the GB crew (sans patrick, but PLUS drew so it more than balances out). each seemed like an affable fellow and genuinely interested to at least chat with me for a bit. also, they're just dudes.

it's really not a big deal.

go outside.

This was just posted in the Diablo 3 OT:

Quote:
10: 22 a.m. PDT- We are in the process of performing an emergency maintenance for all Diablo III servers to resolve several issues that are currently impacting the game. This maintenance may cause some interruption in communication, ability to log in, use of in-game features, and disconnections. We anticipate all servers will be available for play in approximately 1 hour.

Thank you for your patience.

I could watch them spend an hour on the Battlenet forums.

None of them seem to notice the "emergency maintenance" message. There's really nothing to do but come back later.
