Questions Specifically for Jim, Part 3

--- Quote from: Magis on August 05, 2010, 05:38:36 PM ---I believe he's answered both of these in interviews.
1) "Different, and fun for different reasons" is a good summary as I remember?
2) He will neither play nor GM Dresden files. As a GM it would "be too much like work" and as a player I believe his exact words were that he'd "be a GM's nightmare. 'It is this way and I'll put it in the next book if I have to!' ".
Hope that helps. Can provide links to interviews if you need.
That really would suck as a GM - I could also hear something like that can't happen or didn't happen because of this... Sucks that he wouldn't GM it because I could see that game rockin'

Jim averages .2 posts per day. My guess is Neuro and Shecky spend a cumulative ten x more time contemplating the DV than the man himself, at least these days =) I had suspected the same thing when I first signed on to the boards, but word prints don't match up on any of the likely suspects. And then I realized I was chasing a will-o-wisp. Jim has fun in his life, and I *believe* he loves what he does, but his fun times likely come from something non -work - related.

Okay.
But not sure what this has to do with the allegation that Jim has multiple login names.
And Jim's contemplation of the DV has reached such staggering levels by now that even if he never thought about it again for the rest of his life, I doubt I could ever reach that number of hours. What you see on the page is just a sliver of what he's thought up and hashed out just to SUPPORT what's on the page, to give it a workable framing.

--- Quote from: horsehearted on August 09, 2010, 03:12:28 AM ---Unprobable. Jim is maniacal and loves to jerk us around, but the man does have a life... He does other things than read through what his fans are endlessly speculating about. And he's actually pretty nice. When he speaks it is often open to interpretation and we run with that just fine. He doesn't need another login to jerk our chains.
Edited: for spelling. (unprobable is not a word but gets my point across)

improbable? :). But no. I agree with that. He has better things to do than this. It would be too much like work.

I am spending, regrettably, quite a bit less time around these days.
