I've been aware of this for a while. Don't worry, I'm pretty sure if it comes to it, we've got prior art. (So, no name battles.) And besides, this company's pretty shitty anyway. I doubt the game's much more than hype.

Like he said, it's a rehash of Elite.  I doubt it'll go anywhere.  And if it does, we can battle for name ownership.

Fine. Dawn, shall we outdo them? I'm ready to kick things into high gear in the art department. We just need people willing to do the work :-p

Simple: you wouldn't. I avoid him whenever possible.

Seriously, though - when the next semester starts up, I can see whether I can drum up any interest in the art dept here at tech.

Just don't undermine me in the process, por favor.


i.e. - make sure they come to ME (as Director of the Art Dept) and I'll pass them on to Morgul.

Heh, I'll probably make some contacts too.  I'm taking a drawing class next semester for the hell of it.

Ah, yeah. Wasn't thinking of procedure (wasn't trying ot undermine you either, don't worry). That makes sense.
