also, im not sure I follow you, how to you work at both HQ's? do you live in Seattle and occationally commute to LA? or vice versa or what?

She works at the LA one so your right about the commute occasionally to Seattle.

And As I said in the first post, It will be Saturday at 7:00 Pm Pacific/10 Eastern. Be there or be Square (Enix)

Agrees with Brian on the probability.

Since I don't have XI, I'll wait for someone to confirm whether or not they're real or a high-quality fake.

Even I, am amatuer 3D modeler who has 1- hr. of experience, know they're made with verticies and faces.

If I seem jaded, it's because I get news of 8BT related hoaxes all the time. My favorite one was where I was in talks with Comedy Central (or Cartoon Network or Adult Swim) to produce a cartoon based on my comic.

Wow, not even Dave of BnG was offered that!

Also, Square Enix U.S.A., Inc. changed its name to Square Enix, Inc. about a month ago in order to establish a 'globally consistent corporate brand image.' Here.

I'm not going to say that's particularly damning evidence, but I know that when the company my father worked at changed its name, he wasn't referring to it by the old one a month later, particularly in public. But then again, perhaps old habits die hard for some? Even VPs? I also haven't met many 24 year old corporate Vice Presidents. Vice President of what? The entire company, or a particular division? I know that a lot of companies bestow that title upon many, many people (VP of Marketing, VP of Litigation, VP of East Coast Affairs, VP of Cheese Testing), but I'm still questioning the age. I'm sorry... I realize I'm being cynical, but you have to understand our reluctance to believe you.

If you wish to convince us, show us the Square Enix, Inc. company profile with your name and title. ;-)

All Right Lets just clear this up.

Instead of wasting my time answer all of your "GIVE US PROOF" questions i'm going to say this. If you want to see if this is real, Show up at the time stated above at Shiva server. Its not going to kill you.

IMPORTANT: I'm moving the time of the tournament from Saturday at 7:00 to Sunday at 7:00.

And about before when I said pixels are what made 3-D objects I ment polygons. Sorry I was sidetracked. Human Error.

Crodevillian Team · 07-31-2004, 01:33 AM

But in this instance, it doesn't seem particularly difficult to prove. There are ways; corporate email addresses [though that would be asking a lot], corporate profiles, your whole title. Even simple explanations for your inconsistencies would do much. Again, I apologize, but you're not very convincing.

And, like Forrest Gump, that's all I have to say about that. (Unless something of interest happens!)

I've got a $20-bill that says if we keep disbelieving 'er, she'll just cancel the whole thing because we're a bunch of rude jerks. Or such will be her excuse to cancel.

Crodevillian Team · 07-31-2004, 01:54 AM

Hehe. Even if it turns out that by some miracle this was all 100% true, I won't mind feeling like an asshole, because with the information and sketchy story we've been provided, we can't be faulted for being doubtful. (Though I will offer an apology if proven wrong.)

And I'm a Vaudevillian Villain now, so until I change the avatar, I can be as villainously doubtful as a Vaudevillian Villain can be, Mac.

This reminds me of the time I tried to convince everyone I was the President of the National Organization for Women. I wonder why nobody bought that one? Did you guys know that I invented Clip On Ties?

MFD · 07-31-2004, 10:23 AM

Yeah, what's the worst that can happen. I mean, its not like a highly-leveled character can kill a bunch of innocent player characters who showed up for some scam.

I recommend that if the chucks cost anything, don't do it.
