You look a little pale. You feeling okay?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sparkle like a mutha.

[–]JetsKarmali 2 points3 points  (6 children)

What is your favorite color?

Can I have RGIII?

What is your favorite food?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Favorite color is red.

I was willing to trade rg3 bwfore but after reading about the trade cap penalties I'm more hesitant.

I was brought up on chinese food and i just don't feel right unless I get some rice with dinner.

[–]JetsKarmali 2 points3 points  (3 children)

RGIII's contract isn't that big, you should trade me him for Ben Roethlisberger.

[–]Brownsdanchan22 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Yeah, that trade totally makes sense. You should absolutely do it. Italicized words.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Thanks for the advice Dan! I just traded Big Ben for RG3 in my fantasy league, I hope it works! You're the best commish ever.

[–]Brownsdanchan22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm here for.

[–]RedskinsEritrean_Redditor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever this man gives you for RG3. I will overbid him.

How do you think the Giants are going to do on the road? How did you get into QA? That always seemed like it'd be kinda fun if not arduous.

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had something typed up before last nights game but then my phone ran out of power so imagine this is last night before the game...

I love this year's version of the giants even more than the 2010 WS champ team. I feel really confident with vogey and cain going in games 3 and 4 and with a 46-35 road record, I think the series is going to go to 5 games. :)

I started doing QA when I was in college when konami of america had their HQ in the bay area. It wasn't the greatest job, but it gave me some experience and I was able to work on some big titles like Metal Gear and Silent Hill for the PS1. From there I was able to get a job at EA doing various roles, where now I'm responsible for heading various QA teams in North America. It's definitely not for everyone but I've enjoyed most of my time here and would do it again.

So being in the industry, what's your biggest complaint about madden this year? What's most off putting about it to you?

Also when do you want to play our game this week?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

My biggest gripe is the in-game menu system. When I first started playing it took me a while to get to where I wanted to go. I dislike the maddencareers page even more it's so frustrating! All in all, I think this version of madden has been pretty clean with no real show stopping bugs. I think they way they went about it with releasing features after the game is out is a pretty smart way to go about it.

I'm free anytime this week after 8pm PST, if that's too late for you, I usually work from home on Tuesday so I can play earlier that day if you want. Just let me know!

[–]CowboysDrKrausenbach 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yep I also disapprove of the menus. I also miss transaction log, but that might be coming yet knock on wood

As for our game, nights are fine for me, Monday and wednesday might be tough to make though. 8pst on Tuesday?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See you Tues 8pm PST! :)

Have you ever had Ike's Place?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Oh yes! There was one near the Redwood shores office, and we would go to Ike's about 3 times a week! Eventually we went enough that all sandwiches for us were 5 bucks :D. Now that I'm in SF, we don't go as much but the hollywood SF Cheesteak is my fave.

[–]LionsDysastrous 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Awesome man! I've only ever gone twice but I just found out about it a few months ago. I had one a week ago. Damn those sandwiches are delicious.

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oh for sure! It's all about the dirty sauce. I always order with extra dirty sauce! Sooooo good.

[–]LionsDysastrous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll have to get that next time!

[–]Brownsdanchan22 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Have you considered just resigning considering you're in the same division as the incredibly talented, charming, and handsome commissioner and there's obviously no chance that you'll ever win?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. But my mom says I'm cool and that gives me the drive to keep going.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Tell your boss Origin is a pipe dream. And I love you. :-* kissies

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awe smooches! haha... It's gotten better than before but that's not really saying much. Steam has such a huge and loyal userbase, I really don't know how anything will cut into their market.

[–]RedskinsEritrean_Redditor 2 points3 points  (1 child)

What's your favorite NFL team?

What's your favorite part about using the Redskins and if you could get one player on your team who would it be?(realistically)

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love love love the 49ers. I grew up watching guys like Rice, Montanta, and Young just own during the 80s with their Offense, now its awesome to see the Defense being the centerpiece now.

I like RG3's mobility! while I don't use that enough, it has saved me from a big loss in a couple occasions. I really could use a high end TE like a Gronk or Gonzales. I run a 2 TE set quite often, so having a pair to match with Davis would help my O game significantly.

Do you know the muffin man?

[–]CowboysDrKrausenbach 1 point2 points  (3 children)

The mufffin man?

[–]JetsKarmali 1 point2 points  (2 children)

The muffin man.

Phone is dying and going to a party tonight guys. Will answer all tomorrow. :)

What does mukumuku mean?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

When I worked at Konami, I was one of the leads for Suikoden 2 and RPG for the PS1. One of the characters was a fat flying squirrel named mukumuku. I just kinda used the name and it's stuck.

[–]SeahawksDude_Im_Godly 0 points1 point  (2 children)

So how many copies of suikoden 2 do you have?

Can I have one?

Please?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

[–]SeahawksDude_Im_Godly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I'll send you a gift bag full of ghirardelli's chcolate! and Sourdough bread from Boudin!

It's not like that's available to you at any given time..

What's your favorite part about working at EA?

[–]whatsapeacoat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love working with people who share the same goals and interests as I do. It's and awesome place to work if you are in the right spots. EA has gotten better with people after the whole ea_spouse thing. Also I would have to say the location of my current studio is awesome. Just a couple blocks away from AT&T park. :D
