Daigle Comes Calling

Monday, March 19, 2012

You may have already heard that longstanding Paizo freelancer, messageboard crusader, flumph preservationist, and all around great guy Adam Daigle has officially signed on as Paizo’s newest developer. Well, this week he showed up at the office, terrified and disheveled after several straight days of driving all his belongings up from Texas in a truck he’s absolutely not qualified to drive.

In order to show him what swell folks we are, a couple of us headed over to help him move into the Paizo dormitories (AKA a nearby apartment complex). Since fewer than 24 hours is clearly enough time to get his life in order, he’s already set up in the office, learning the ropes by trying not to fall asleep while whimpering quietly in his new cube. Pretty soon he’s going to find out about all the projects he’s already late on, and when he does, I thought it might cheer him up to have a nice welcome thread on the blog.

So please join me in saying: Welcome, Daigle! Now get to work!

Daigle arrives in true Paizonian fashion. Captain of Industry Wes Schneider proves he’s not above sparing some time for the little people. Hobo Beard Patrick says,
"I could totally
live in here..."
Daigle knows that the key to moving is properly labeling the boxes.

“Get back in there, Renie! You don’t come out until Blood of Angels is developed!” Mark Moreland is ashamed. Sutter obeys the golden rule of moving: Always make sure that it’s the owner who drops the expensive thing.

Fiction Editor

Wooot! Congrats Daigle -- you're living the dream! Ask Jeff for my little present to you (if you haven't gotten it already).


Hope you are loving that Pacific Northwest weather, Adam.
It's pleasant and cloudy here in Austin today.

Congrats again.

To quote myself from the chatroom: "He likes his coffee cold, his drumrolls fast - he's Daigle!"

Fortunately for Adam, he's a pescetarian and need not worry about such things, though I am freshly restocked on recipes from that region. :D

Unfortunately, without seeing more of your avatar Adam, the first thing that came to mind was...

Spoiler:
jar jar binks

<shudder>

Of course, as an old-schooler, I know what it is, but its cropped a bit much methinks.


This is awesome, welcome Daigle!

Nice avatar Adam.

Was the camera out of focus when you jumped the scooter through a flaming hoop?


Man, didn't even let Adam enjoy SXSW before making him drive up to the northwest!

it was raining ... of course. :-)

It's cool that the staff showed up and helped you move in - normally a task only reserved for close friends and family, very telling! (Or a testament to the Daigle School of Persuasion.)

Adam Daigle the monster maker? May he die a thousand deaths! Which is to say his monsters are awesome...and have killed more of my PCs than there are calendar months.

Can you post some of the recipes on the blog :-) Could you imagine how impossible it is to find any real steak or BBQ in sweden?

I agree with Jim Groves great that you all helped out; says a lot about the company.

Welcome Daigle!!!

How was the drive from Texas? Did everything turn out well? Did you buy the crew pizza and beverage? BTW, Pescetarian is cool. Both me and my girlfriend love fish.

Parts of it were scary, parts of it were boring, but all in all it went well. I offered the crew beers and stuff, but they had to get back to work. With all of us working together it took less than an hour to unload the truck. I was amazed at that and very, very appreciative.

Flumph Avatar! Finally!


Congratulations Adam.

I also note that you managed to avoid the homunculus take-over of KQ, excellent timing! :-)

(Yes, I know I am a little bit tardy. I have an excuse, abbreviated ST.)
