Summary:
I am an avid gamer and fairly skilled at most competitive games I've played. To some it may seem odd to list your gaming skill in a developer profile, but I think it is relevant. I've known a few developers that don't play their own games, or at least the types of games they are developing. It's good to know your eventual player's point of view.

I've been doing design work on my own game concepts (none released) and on mod projects, such as persistent worlds (PWs) using the RPG Neverwinter Nights, since around 1999. My experience with applied designs is mostly with the various PWs between 2003 and 2009. I have designed my own server, and various scripted systems in it. I have also participated in the design and scripting of systems for other worlds. In addition to my design and scripting work in NWN PWs, I also have been a community manager for a group of PWs from 2003 - ongoing. I once managed the universal content packages for the group, and have acted as an administrator and mediator for the teams involved in this group.

As to my programming skills. I am self taught and far from complete. I am adept at understanding and modifying existing code in various languages. But I do not have a solid enough base to start from scratch in many beyond scripting languages. I changed my skill level from beginner to intermediate as I feel confident that if I need to modify Torque, I can (and have). Though I would prefer not to be the primary programmer on my projects.
