    Default Staff Credentials

    Hey EB Staff, I was just wondering what sort of jobs and positions you all hold... I read in the FAQ that many of you hold professional positions, particularly the researchers. I just thought it would be something interesting for all of us players to know.

    It might be interesting to list the positions of members without associating them directly with a member - some of us would not really be interested in saying exactly who we are. Mod development isn't something that can usually help get one tenure or a degree or even a job of any type.

    FWIW, here is the latest map of members' locations that I could get people to fess up to:

    Heoll! Unlike Teleklos here, I have nothing to hide. I'm in the northern-most part of Norway, location also noted under my avatar.

    My current job is as flight-ops duty officer for offshore helicopter operations, passengers and cargo to oil installations. Worked there for 2 years. I also work with 3d graphics and video editing as a freelancer, this work has not carried on into EB however. The only 3d work I have had in EB was to help people with technicalities of 3dstudio max, and sometimes fix some early mesh-errors. I remember Psycho V making a model of Gaesatae, and the testicles were 2000 polygons, the penis was 3000.. I fell out of my chair laughing as you can imagine. So I had to optimize those polygons.. and tell him that it's not a good idea to have more polygons on the genitalia than on the actual model.

    Psycho V has made excellent models though.. so this was just a humorous oversight. Also happened once with the wheel on the Brihentin-helmets.

    My work in EB has been mostly the voicemods and siege warfare, and various other things.

    I have nothing to hide either--except I work in US military intellignece and do top secret craziness all day..and yes, there are aliens.

    Anyhoo, I don't do anything for EB, except read lots of books and make asinine comments occasionally. I write descriptions and other text for the Romani and basically assist with any historical research or suggestions for the faction to The FCs, Wigferth and Cunctator. I live in a dog house they made for me and get water every other day.

    Heoll! --- Is that some sort of Vanir war cry? :)

    Yep, we're everywhere. And me? I'm, eh, just a student. Definately.

    In EB, I used to do formations, then scripting, but haven't got the time to do anything right now.
