Because I'm not the Matrix PR guy anymore :) That ended a few weeks ago.

Scott Parrino is now Editor-in-Chief (how many have there been now?). http://www.wargamer.com/forums/posts.asp?t=585745

I've only dealt with him occasionally in his role as Matrix Games PR rep. Seems like a good guy.

Scott is a good cat. He's been the EIC there before. I wish him lots of luck in the new/old post.

Thanks Diced, Jarhead!

I'm excited to get back to writing again. I find this side of press to be more exciting and more my forte :)

Titles may not match exactly, but it goes something like this:

Mario Kroll
Peter von Kleinschmid(t? - I forget)
Shawn Wallace
Me
Scott Perrino
Curtis Szmania
Scott Perrino

I think that's right unless I missed some churn after I left.

If it's Tim Bradshaw, I believe he was very temporary, he's the one that contacted me to join the Wargamer. If its a different Tim, then I have no ideer  :)

Yeah that Tim. It was early 2011 and it was he, Scott and myself running the WG.

Oh Jarhead, you are definitely on my top list of writers I had. Heck we're even friends on Facebook!

And JH of course, running security and writing. I can't believe it was two years ago already.

An Italian gent by the name of Filippo Chianetta (filippo@slitherine.co.uk). He's a good guy and friendly too.

I guess wargamer had no where to go but up at this point didn't it?

Good luck to the editor but I think the soul of that site moved on when the last editor was chasing people away while trying to steal ideas from other forums and then geting mad when people still left anyway because he couldn't do his job worth a crap

it woudl be intresting to see if it makes a difference htere but even though they have more 'stuff' on their front page I think the reading here is a lot better and the forums are a much nicer place to lurk adn read and watch and hang out

if you guys could get abetter front page here you might really take off and be a kickass sight

Just as well since it would probably lead to multiple subpoenas.

Hmmm.

Something about big game cats in obscure, low-level clouds comes to mind but maybe I'm just crazy.
