    He's the one who granted me the power to begin my "biased crusade against everyone who wasn't me" on the GPG forums xD

    And while we're talking about mysteries, who did a search/replace on 'Orangeknight' ? :)

    It's complicated. Basically I had 2 forum accounts, one(OrangeKnight) from when the forum was first created(followed the Uber guys over when they left GPG) and one that was tied to my Ubernet ID(knight orangeknight was already taken) when I played SMNC, but I like my "full" name better so I circumvented the Uber logon to log in with my old account, but Uber is working to close those holes up, so I worked it out with garat to just swap teh accounts and change the name to match my UberID.

    So I get to keep my 1200+ posts, but have to settle with a worse name xD

    I knew he was floating around at Uber doing something :).

    How involved is he in PA then? As I recall he was one of the most helpful GPG devs for us modders, which is what made me wonder where he was in the first place.

    He's involved almost exclusively on the business development and web side. He happens to be a ninja level programmer as well as the CEO but has to spend most of his time on biz stuff.
