Starcraft 2 soon to be announced?
Blizzard Job Application
This job application is practically tailored for me. I wish this job had come up a few years ago, I would definitely have tried to get it.
Look at the pluses :=
* Game design experience on a shipped product with head-to-head game-play
* Experience in designing and playing Real-Time-Strategy games
* Has played Blizzard strategy games extensively
* Played Warcraft 3 and/or StarCraft competitively
In your cover letter please answer the following questions :=
* What games are you currently playing?
* Which competitive online games have you played?
* What is your win/loss record in your "Top 3" favorite competitive games?
I played Warcraft2 for 3 years, Starcraft for 1 year, Broodwar for 2 years and Warcraft3 for 2 years. I was #1 at Warcraft 2 in all the various ladders/leagues many times over. Same for Starcraft/Broodwar for the first year when I played a lot and the same for Warcraft3(Reign of Chaos).
Not only that but Blizzard used many of my balance suggestions from the INClan website when I did extensive balance analysis of their changes in patches for Warcraft3.
My favorite all time games and most played in order are :-
#1. Starcraft/Broodwar
#2. Warcraft2
#3. Warcraft3/Duke Nuke'em 3D
Anyway, it is still exciting that Starcraft 2 might be announced soon as what else can it be? What else? This got me excited today and it is probably over 2 years away =).

I remember from when you played Warcraft 3 there was much fuss about your slow gaming speed. How could you have been so great at Starcraft? I demand some Starcraft: Brood War replays!
tillerman still logs on to useast and plays public games. sometimes i'll play him but he's not that good
i'm kidding btw
You should still apply! Screw poker and come to blizzard! (I'll be there in June.)
-OUTrage (one of your war2 nemeses)
P.S. (i am NOT OUTdamage/bobmariey/jackass who often impersonated me on bnet)
it couldnt be sc2, if it was in development we would have heard news about it
I applied for this. I was a]x[Dragon during TFT and Shadow_Hunter on ROC - do not know if you remembered me back then, but we battled a time or two. I am hoping they will contact me this week as I sent in my things during the middle of last week.
I'm not quite at the 30k/month spot on poker yet - so I wouldn't mind moving over to a 30k/year design job on SC2. :P
30k month? try 30k DAYS!
you have little faith in the tillerman.
Blew, EverQuest is/was the best.
Bleh, I meant.
Everquest? Way to compare an MMO with an RPS.
Er, RTS :D
would this be a response to gas powered games supreme commander? the game looks absolutely amazing and if it has the same great gameplay as total annihilation did it will be a sure hit. Or perhaps they are developing starcraft2 for the guaranteed massive revenue they will receive from it.
Those games are really nerdy. Ever play shoot-em-ups like Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Half-Life? Those are what men play. Who wants to cast spells and summon wizards when YOU can be the one creating the action, not some dice roll alotting hit points and misses. Btw, Rise of Nations is a cool game that is semi-nerdy, check it out.
Guy above me is retarded and thinks he's cool cause he plays with virtual guns.
die.
"Everquest? Way to compare an MMO with an RPS."
Yeah, I was thinking of World of Warcraft. My mistake.
I think Blizzard need you :) HF Tillerman !

serial 089639

NTT
Slayer
TillerMan
