Questions Specifically for Jim, Part 3

[walkinshoes]

Has anyone noticed that Harry didn't actually hear a gunshot? Hence, no one to cast his death curse on? Isn't that exactly how Kinkaide said he would "do" Harry? From a mile away? I guess the Archive decided that Harry as a Winter Knight was not a good thing, and gave him the only way out. Death. Not that Harry hasn't been dead before, but he used it as a tool then, too, didn't he?

Jim, we know you're probably commenting through at least one or two logins, so what do you think? :>

Um... huh?

[walkinshoes]

I'm just saying he's probably got an account to log in with to throw in a comment or two without everyone going "OOOO" and AAHHH" over it.

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)

Jim is Fae. Period.

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.

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.

[horsehearted]

improbable?

YES! Thank you! I knew there was an actual word for what I meant and for the life of me it was completely gone.

[Shecky]

Me fail English? Unpossible!

Jim, I have a few questions.

Where did Mister go after Harry's house burned down?

Now that Harry's gone, will Micheal go back in to the monster-smiting business, at least to defend Molly from the White Council?

Also, now that's Harry's gone, what kind of personality can we expect from Bob?

The kinds of questions that should be answered by upcoming books aren't typically the questions to be posed in this thread. That's more along the lines of questions about things that have already happened, such as, "How exactly did Malcolm Dresden meet Margaret LaFey?"

Give the newbie a break, Shecky! No harm in asking. It's not like Jim's gonna give him a straight answer anyway. We all know he's more Fae than Mab!
