Wow this takes me back... I remember when I joined the team in 1998, tasked with designing Wireplay 3.0 and running the community team till I was booted for questioning the company direction post IPO.
I learned so much from working with you guys!
The funny thing was that when I joined Sony that I discovered that their tournament system had a certain familiarity - the design was based off something I'd proposed years earlier for Wireplay (no infringements but inspired).
30+ years of tech, retired from an identity intelligence company, now part-time with an insurance broker.
Dev community mod - mostly light gardening & weeding out spam :)
Oscar! Lovely to hear from you :) I knew there would be those I forgot to include - mea culpa, feel free to drop me a line with details and I'll pop them in here...Drilla did similar with his stuff about Yan and Half Life. phil.dev@ashbysoft.com

All good - was so long ago and I've lost touch with everyone too... some fun memories like having a bunch of footballers including Alan Shearer at the Actua Soccer 3 launch; and saving Counterstrke (well a bit).
