What game(s) are you currently playing?
I really don't have time to game much what with running
Dwarven Forge and working year round on True Dungeon. My
current favorite game is "Camping" which involves
making tents in my living room with my 2 year old. I do plan
on playing Thief 3 when it comes out this spring.
Any favorite gaming moments or stories you want to share?
Wow...so many with all my great friends. I host a tiny invitation-only
convention for 20 friends called JefCON that is the highlight
of the year. It's great to see all my friends in one place,
and then get to game with them.
It would be hard to beat last year's True Dungeon at Gen
Con Indy. Some friends and I worked our butts off on the
thing, and we had no idea how it would turn out. We could
not even play test the thing, and we just took our best guess.
The genuinely glowing response we got from Midwest gamers
was incredible. I will also remember the Award Ceremony.
How did you become involved in True Dungeon?
You can see the whole story on the website...just look at
the earliest posts. It was a strange journey.
What are some examples of work you have done on True Dungeon
that people might recognize?
I did the logo and the tag line. Cool!
What is your favorite thing about True Dungeon?
The great support we have gotten for our hard work. We really
appreciate the thanks and the understanding (when things
go wrong), and it is really great to work on something that
people enjoy so much.
What’s your favorite True
Dungeon moment or story to this point?
Hmmm...so many...perhaps it was seeing that huge line of
people waiting for tickets on Friday morning. It was the
first real proof that people liked our event.
Without giving away any secrets, what are you most looking
forward to with the new module?
I can't wait to see the new room sets. We are really trying
to improve them this year, and I have declared spartan square-ish
rooms to be a thing of the past.
What do you do in the real world?
I have recently landed my dream job of running a gaming
company. And I got it with my dream company -- Dwarven Forge!
I also own a sign shop so send all your sign business to
my manager at darryl@quicksigns.org. Hee hee
What are some of your other interests outside of gaming?
My main focus is trying to keep my 2.5 year old out of trouble
and my wife happy. I enjoy yard work when it is not too hot,
and I have been trying to exercise more. Real exciting stuff!
Any other interesting tidbits you would like to share with
us?
Keep an eye out for the Surprise Ball. It should add a lot
of tension to players as they creep through the dungeon.
