Yep, I'm an admin here, as well as one of the main go-to people for wikicode issues (templates, DPL, etc.). I have a shoepuppet account, Dr Ishmael, that I sometimes use for testing stuff. I also have a bot account, Bot ishmael, used to perform Bot tasks and various maintenance duties as necessary.

About me
Tony, age 28
 * Location
 * Conway, Arkansas


 * Occupation
 * Test Analyst &mdash; instead of developing code, now I get to tell the developers what they did wrong. I still get to write Perl/SQL scripts as part of the testing process.


 * Icon
 * Chicken. Not because I am a chicken, but because I command an army of chickens.  Don't ask, it's a long story.

I have been playing Guild Wars since my then-girlfriend (now wife) told me about it after the first Beta Weekend Event back in October 2004. The feature that hooked me was that it was free, but the reason I kept playing is because it's fun. I don't play as much anymore, but I still hop on for most special events (I'm also part of Nick's voluntary slave labor force). My wife Jink is the leader and I am an officer of a small RP guild called the Wind Riders [WIND].

Technical stuffs
Yes, I know how to extract most textures and some text from Gw.dat. Click here to learn more.

The best tool I've found for running multiple instances of GW is here. Works flawlessly with the new -character command-line switch, unlike the tool I'd been using previously.

Randomness
Genki Sudo is a Japanese former MMA star who was well-known for his flamboyant and highly-choreographed ring entrances. He retired after a short but promising career because he didn't find it "fulfilling" enough. One of his new projects is a musical group called WORLD ORDER, in which he sings, writes most of the music, and choreographs/directs the music videos. Their self-titled debut album was released in July and is available in iTunes.

Also see the re-recording of the video in New York, featuring the full 7-member troupe seen in the other videos.

After watching this video check out this essay that analyzes the philosophical relationship between the lyrics and choreography.
