Plan for Randy "Vashner" Anthony

After more than a year away from working on my Torque projects. I have decided to make another shot but with a different approach. I learned a lot with torque and the GG forums and info. Main thing I learned is that no way can 1 person make a modern game that will sell good. Also learned that with my disablity (spinal) I can't put into a project a full 40-80 hour work week that would need to be there to make it a true success. But I can still work 4-5 hours a day so maybe if I can get on a couple of teams and do some helper / consulting / dabble work?

So my plan for 04 is to build another pc here and retool my existing workshop. As to what direction I go.. who knows there are a lot of things I can do to help out projects. In Feb 04 I plan on putting myself on the GG market.

Also need to decide what to do with Operation Anaconda. It's made with torque from a 2 year old build.

I forgot to mention. I have not totally be away from games. I have been working as a tester for Sony (SOE) (volunteer). Got on the extended credits of Star Wars Galaxies as a beta tester. Still testing Everquest and SWG on the Test Center servers. Yea it's all about just reporting what's broken but I think it's been healty for my game knowledge doing some serious testing.
