| 21:30.38 | neoromantique | Hi Armand |
| 21:30.45 | Armand | Herro |
| 21:31.09 | neoromantique | What's up? |
| 21:31.47 | Armand | Not much.. Just copying databases between servers. :/ |
| 21:32.23 | neoromantique | And I've got invited to a team for a Game Jam(making game in 8hrs) in London. |
| 21:32.38 | Armand | When's that? |
| 21:32.55 | neoromantique | There's gonna be gaming conference (EGXLondon) |
| 21:33.15 | neoromantique | And on-site there will be a game jam, which basically means to code a game in 8hours |
| 21:33.30 | Armand | Whheeeeeeennn ???! |
| 21:33.39 | neoromantique | in Mid- september |
| 21:33.49 | Armand | Coolies. |
| 21:33.50 | neoromantique | I've been there in October(EGXReezed, so birmingham instead) |
| 21:33.57 | neoromantique | with a team as well |
| 21:33.59 | Armand | Means I'll be about. :P |
| 21:34.20 | neoromantique | Didn't win, but had whole PC Gamer article(2 pages) written about our team ^^ |
| 21:34.25 | Armand | :D |
| 21:35.09 | neoromantique | Armand: There's one guy on our team, his freaking robot |
| 21:35.13 | Armand | £10-20 for tickets? Not bad |
| 21:35.25 | neoromantique | You give him game idea, and 20 mins later you get working prototype |
| 21:35.36 | Armand | Nice. |
| 21:35.43 | Armand | I doubt he'd manage mine. :P |
| 21:35.55 | neoromantique | as long as you don't look at the code or god forbid you trying to debug it, but hey, it works! |
| 21:36.03 | Armand | Haha |
| 21:36.08 | Armand | I don't look at code.. |
| 21:36.12 | neoromantique | It was literally, he writtes, and if something doesn't work as expected, it's easier to delete and rewrite :D |
| 21:36.22 | neoromantique | But he's extremely fast |
| 21:36.32 | neoromantique | So a gem for Game Jams |
| 21:36.45 | Armand | Our Director is damn quick, but lots of debugging afterwards. :P |
| 21:36.49 | neoromantique | :) |
| 21:36.54 | neoromantique | I personally don't go there as a coder |
| 21:37.03 | neoromantique | Just briefly look-up/script a bit |
| 21:37.11 | neoromantique | but I'm mostly doing game mechanics/levels/art |
| 21:37.19 | Armand | I just don't code... Solved. ^_^ |
| 21:37.24 | neoromantique | haha) |
| 21:37.29 | neoromantique | Happy life ^^ |
| 21:37.34 | Armand | I should project lead a game dev team.. |
| 21:37.54 | Armand | I'm fucking awesome with ideas. |
| 21:39.16 | neoromantique | Yeah, I was thinking about game dev as well, but I rather suck at documentation, and code, and art |
| 21:39.27 | neoromantique | So I'm just doing 8hour games, where nobody expects anything too fancy :D |
| 21:39.36 | neoromantique | P.S Look what I've got: http://i.imgur.com/j6vVi4F.jpg |
| 21:39.39 | neoromantique | :P |
| 21:40.40 | Armand | Huuummmm... Cyrillic.. |
| 21:40.51 | Armand | Ruski ? |
| 21:40.53 | neoromantique | Yeah |
| 21:41.02 | Armand | Coolies |
| 21:41.11 | Armand | NT 3.5 - 4.0 !! |
| 21:41.13 | Armand | lol |
| 21:41.21 | neoromantique | Yup! |
| 21:41.38 | Armand | Gotcha beat.. DOS 3.2 manual on my desk. ^_^ |
| 21:41.54 | neoromantique | as long as I disregard all about protocols(gopher!!), It's still useful |
| 21:42.52 | Armand | Gopher... So old. :P |
| 21:43.09 | Armand | I'm tempted to set up a site using it, but.. Meh. |
| 21:46.24 | neoromantique | Um,http://gopher.floodgap.com/gopher/gw |
| 21:47.00 | neoromantique | that's gopher proxy |
| 21:47.03 | neoromantique | and it's kinda nifty |
| 21:53.19 | Armand | I know what gopher is.. I've just never worked with it. |
| 21:54.49 | neoromantique | Armand: Yeah, I mean that it's still _somewhat_ alive |
| 21:56.02 | Armand | Yarp |
| 21:57.52 | neoromantique | If you'll go to EGXLondon, we could probably meet there ;p |
| 21:58.16 | Armand | I might, but I'll be off to NJ on the 1st October. |
| 21:58.23 | Armand | I have to prepare for that. |
| 21:59.07 | neoromantique | Yeah, then it kinda sucks as EGX is 25-28 |

| 22:39.54 | neoromantique | Average salary - 29k/pa |
| 22:40.27 | Armand | For a Junior.. Looks a tad unrealistic to me. |
| 22:40.42 | Armand | £19-22k to start. |
| 22:41.04 | Armand | Up to £30k?? I don't think you'd be "Junior" any more. :) |
| 22:41.17 | neoromantique | Yeah, I figured to expect somewhere around 20k |
| 22:41.25 | neoromantique | so this 29k was quite a lot |
| 22:41.31 | Armand | It's always dependant.. |
| 22:41.42 | Armand | Age, experience, employer.. location. |
| 22:48.29 | neoromantique | Yeah, I'll try to look-up average salaries in this area |
| 22:48.43 | neoromantique | But I don't think that I can expect anything more(if anything at all, lol) |
| 22:50.37 | neoromantique | Yup, mostly 20-22k |
| 23:01.21 | Armand | Well, job is a job, innit? :P |
| 23:01.26 | Armand | Right.. gotta be off. |
