I'm sitting in a business meeting here in Chicago. I was passing the time between presentations to look at reddit on my phone/check texts and emails. I stopped the whole meeting and read your post outloud. Nearly everyone was chocked up. I let everyone in the room who was stressed out about what we were doing know, that this isn't the end of the world.
I hope you are doing better, there are 12 of us here thinking about you and the others.

I remember seeing pictures from the 60's and 70's (I believe?) of folks skiing at these picturesque resorts, in what looked like an amazing mountain range... I would love to experience Iranian culture and be able to go skiing in these places!

I was actually annoyed at comments like yours when I started watching this video... the game theory in this game is really similar to boom beach / clash of clans and all that crap - that is all F2P bullshit; so I was really interested in this, until I heard him talk. I never heard once anything that sounded like a game theory guy, so maybe it was artistic vision? I dunno, it seems like a clone with a marketing angle. I don't mean to be so upside down on this, but even the first couple comments seem like bought comments.
my opinionated source: im a CD that works in marketing and advertising - I use a lot these mechanics, and have developed some advergames.
later down the thread he defends this by asking if this BB and CoC was original style - which we all know is not, the RTS mechanic has been around for ages, but this is a sweep clone of the popular F2P RTS mechanics... so what did he come up with? to get some guys together to make a clone and use his BG to sell it. again, im only annoyed because this thread looks bought. 1538 people upvoted this because they were really interested in a BB CoC F2P clone?

every book review for his are 3 votes with each person leaving a lengthy description.
Every profile is the exact same thing copy and pasted. His name and work history don't appear in ngram before 2012. his linkedin looks like a business guy, not a game designer... I hate the marketing on this site - sneaky shit. And furthermore don't peddle this F2P clone crap. make a game.

Jodi Koszarek is a hire to play writer who "worked with the team" to write the books etc. etc. I dunno ... I'm calling this thread was bought just like those book reviews. sorry thad. have one at the "social" on me.
EDIT: I have some friends from the boston area who worked security in africa as well. thad - if you read this let me know who you worked with.. i'm super curious... if your dishonesty with buying advertising stems from a past... of telling stories.
