Personal Quote: something french I cant type :-(
Known as Kinnison in community, or Kennison, or Konnison, or Kilieonson, or Git.
HC: What did you do before CyberLife?
Dan: Toiled away ceaselessly for nothing more than complaints
HC: How did you get involved with them?
Dan: I e-mailed them once when I had nothing to do for a month, presented them with a CV, proposal for work etc, and they agreed to give me a three week trial.
HC: Had you heard of or played Creatures or other A-Life game before you joined, thoughts?
Dan: Yes, I'd played Creatures since it was released
HC: What was your first day at CyberLife like?
Dan: Hectic, hard work from the word go
HC: Can you describe a typical day in your life?
Dan: Recently:
Wake up 7am, Shower, Dress, Breakfast at 7:30
8:00 leave house
8:30 get into work ...WORK...
13:00 Go get lunch
3:30 ...WORK...
19:00 ...WORK...
22:00 ...WORK...
23:30 Relax and browse through code & write notes to myself for the day after
00:00 ...YAWN...
00:05 Leave Office (Usually)
HC: Where do you see yourself in three years time, and where do you see CyberLife?
Dan: In Three Years time huh?... Hmm... I will have finished my Degree (Just) so I would like to be in the R&D section here at CL, although I may end up anywhere Cyberlife is doing _big_ things in the next three years whether they like it or not (Well, assuming I get to keep on working here at any rate
HC: Could you tell us some of these big things?
Dan: Well, it might get me sacked- but I heard they could be repainting the office- WHOA!
HC: Is there a member of the team who has a habit that really annoys you that you would like to get of your chest?
Dan: Umm... Let's See... Everyone keeps complaining that I work too fast
HC: What is your life ambition and why?
Dan: I would like to retire from "forced" work by the time I am 35, Own many houses all over the world, and never ever have to go to America
HC: Using one sentence can you describe yourself?
Dan: Dan is a generally happy, hard working, incredibly lazy if not motivated, gentle soul, with an unhealthy liking for a cute smile, twinkling green eyes, and a good conversation.
HC: Do you have any interesting Norn stories?
Dan: Erm - I lost one earlier... I think I deleted its skeleton
HC: If there was anywhere in the Creatures universe (Albia & Ark) you could go where would it be, and why?
Dan: Hmmm Probably the Norn Area on the Ark - Nice a gentle atmosphere, and cool scenery
HC: If you had to be a breed of Norn, Grendel or an Ettin which would you be and why?
Dan: I'd be an Ettin - As they are the builders of the gengineered life forms - although I would prefer to be a Shee
HC: Has having a community status before you came helped you fit into CL?
Dan: Erm - apart from the odd mention of CrEd32, It's done nothing but hinder me until Easter, I was part of the "outsiders" as it were - but now I'm just part of the team
HC: DAN JUSTIFY YOUR EXSISTANCE
Dan: I've done that already - remember, I lost the image unfortunately
HC: And your final say to the community....?
Dan: something french I cant type again
Thanks, Dan!
