Hi David! Bit of a Roblox nerd here, haha. Been following the site and metaverse for quite a few years at this point and am happy that you finally agreed to an AMA, as I'm pretty interested in the site's history and future. I have a couple questions here, you don't have to answer all of them!!

1. How far did you originally expect Roblox to go, and how does it compare to today? What are your hopes for its growth in the future?

2. When you and Erik left MSC Software, what did you do in the few years before founding Roblox? How was the first year of development?

3. Did Morgan McGuire directly help out with Roblox in the beginning, or did he only supply the engine? How did you two know eachother and what led up to his recent hiring?

4. You've said that in the first version of Roblox, you had no character. Could you expand on this, if you remember specifics?

5. Do you have any plans on bringing Roblox Studio to mobile devices (or consoles)? If so, how do you think it could work?

I also have some more specific questions, which I don't expect you to recall but would be appreciated.

1. Was eBlocks an early, scrapped name for Roblox? It was found on your website in 2003 as a "stealth mode video game company".

2. The first known singleplayer game is Spasmotron2 vs. Wimpotron2 which released in late July 2004 when it was private (as far as I'm aware), are there any you remember from before that?

Apologies for asking so many historical questions, it's quite interesting! Can't wait to see where the site heads in the future :)

In the future, would you consider releasing those versions in some form just for experimentation?
