: talking about great map makers getting a life. Has anybody seen Tilo lately?
Not for a long time. The Rubicon team invited him to join in making Rubicon X - OK, I kinda invited him. Turned out he was doing his year of mandatory service. I heard from him once after he got back, but then we never heard from him again and our e-mails went unanswered. Too bad - Xareem was totally cool. Scott Brown even volunteered to write a real story for Xareem, but then Tilo disappeared. *sigh*
BTW - it is possible to get a life and still be involved in the community. Look at me - I've been married nearly 20 years (yes, I'm that old). John Sumner has a wife and kids. True, we're not mapmakers, but we spend as much time on this game as just about anyone.
