Moving 
We're moving offices at work today, and we have sooo many crates. It's like heaven. 
Shallow 
heh, funny, us too.

and I'm pissed of beyond mortal comprehension thanks to it. so I'll probably be doing some lashing out later today.
if the usual suspects could lay down some groundwork for me to bite into, It'd be much appreciated. just some half-assed flame about DNF or why developers owe the end-users their firstborn children will do.
k-thx.

They obviously knew what they were doing when they called it Duke Nukem Forever <end cut from random shacknews thread>

There you are sir, hope it helps.

you have ten minutes to empty out your desk and get the fuck off the premises.
that's a really lousy flame-bait.

at the very least say something nasty about miller or broussard. 
Wrath 
ffs you're moving AGAIN!? 
Wrath 
that was a serious comment taken from a real thread <smile>. But I've packed and am on the run anyway.

Here's some more, unfortunately nothing about Broussard or his children :

Duke Nukem Neverever. #$$@% 3D Realms that is one suck ass company. I have heard from a few people that no longer work there, that they pay their employees shit then fire them. 
FFS

Ok

Nitin 
metlslime doesn't have icons in posts enabled.

Which means no emoticon art. :(

Selling Is Easier If You Know What You're Selling 
It's like this. I took a demo of a little game concept I had to an games outfit on Thursday.

They liked it. Which is nice, EXCEPT:

At the time they started talking about potential markets and what sort of price was I expecting, I was having immense trouble keeping up with what they were saying. All memory of that aspect is corrupted.

I don't know if they expect me to sell them the concept, or the rights, or what. I've never done anything like this in my life before. And they want an answer by Monday.

I have no idea what to say or do. Nor how to respond.

Some of you, I know, are already in the industry. As such, I seek your advice. 
Not That I'm In The Industry... 
Maybe you need a lawyer familiar with this sort of process? 
Fatty 
Yes, the first thing you want to do is have someone who is familiar with written, legally binding, agreements have a look at it.

Second, ask for a second meeting to get things cleared up, they want to be on the same page as you - if they balk at this they're not a serious company anyway. Bring someone along, a friend that can just sit down with his or her mouth shut and listen in, taking notes and looking busy.

Ask for a pause if you get stressed up, just tell them you need a cup of coffee or something cold to drink. 
Request 
Can someone please change the download link on the last news post to
