CCP Oneiromancer

Ohi.
My name is Oneiromancer and I'm a workaholic, some of you know me from IRC or the test server. I've started working at CCP in January 2007 as a junior tester in QA and shed "junior" for "senior" after a few months. I'm one of the few gurrl-persons working hands-on on the game (yes, yes, I know, there are no girls on the internetz). I stick my nose mostly in PVE-related stuff, like exploration, missions and so on. In game I've done a bit of everything, except being a pirate (just because my old corp was anti-pirates and now I don't have time to play any more).
In my little spare time I play lots and lots of PC games (RPG's and strategy, mostly), read books (SciFi and fantasy), read comics (mostly Vertigo-like stuff) and take belly dance and tribal dance classes.
I have a series of unhealthy obsessions concerning things like swords, hats, all things steampunk, space dragons and work.
Oh, and Evelgrivion - I fixed your post, you had some spelling mistakes. =P

So your not an alcholic, but workaholic?
I thought CCP paid their employees in beers?

You're probably the only one who got stuck on that and missed the belly dancing ...

I'm sure you've read it but you really need to collect all of John Constantine: Hellblazer and Preacher. (I guess I'm a sucker for Ennis.

That obsession is only unhealthy if your playing with the pointy end.
I know cause I am starting to get my own obsession with sharp and pointy swords

Mephysto here. Originally from the UK, I moved to Iceland to join the dev team in the summer of 2005, and for about a year prior to that I volunteered as a bughunter. Since then I have moved on from testing and now hold the dubious honour of being the QA deployment group lead and configuration manager. In English; I make sure that my team has the corect builds on the correct servers, and also spend alot of time making sure the only changes going into a patch are those authorised.

Edited by: CCP Dionysus on 24/05/2008 14:56:32 Howdy all.
Ex-patriate aussie (they kicked me out for not drinking enough). I've spent many years practising my drinking in countries like Finland, Russia, Czech Republic until CCP saw fit to allow me to join them in sunny Iceland. I've spent a year as a GM (if you've had trouble with POSes, you probably spoke to me) and spent so much time investigating technical issues that the QA department yoinked me a little while ago. Now I get to bother the devs with my dubious questions of "why _exactly_ does this feature work this way..."
I like getting details right Hope to be of some service.
Oh yes - I like to pew pew and RP a lot.

That is the best question to ask any developer or engineer.
Usually when I ask the respons is "uhm...uh...uhm...let me get back to you on that" or finger pointing. But I am sure you don't get those responses at all. You probably get the answer of, "it was planned and your not doing it right, let me show".
We all know how friendly and helpful devs are. ________________________

Originally by: CCP Prism X I still play Master of Magic fanaticly
You, sir, win. Forever and always. MoM is fantastic. Tried Age of Magic?
Indeed. All I have to say is God Bless Home of the Underdogs for having the *patched* version of MoM as my old mint condition box with all the manuals and floppies has survived but alas the floppys information has not. If there was ever a game out there that was in dire need of a re-release with brand new flashy graphics but not a damned thing changed about the gameplay then Master of Magic is it. Btw CCP as you are all into the magic type stuff now with the White Wolf merger and MoM is abandonware why not pick it up for a song and do the gaming community a favor by bringing it back? Certainly there has to be a few moar Icelanders in need of a job yes? Future Member Of The 24th Imperial |

200 or so at the iceland office now, a little over 300 in total I think. I kind of lost track after the first 100 people in the company (when I joined 3 years ago there was 40of us in total!)

Nice to see CCP coming out and talking about themselves, more! -------------- "Politics. As exciting as war. Definitely as dangerous... Though in war, you can only get killed once. In politics it can happen over and over."
