While we're speculating...

I speculate that the positions listed will be allowed to experiment and refine their ideas and talents by using JumpGate as a testbed. For instance, the web developer will work on a billing system for Jumpgate, and work out all the bugs and pitfalls before going on to development of some grand paying game. Ditto for the others.

I'm not getting my hopes up or anything, but I think it's completely reasonable to expect new graphics, a new billing system, a new economy, destructible buildings, a new "leveling" system, AI controlled factional ships (for convoys and such), mining drones, and of course, a Craptor redesign.

I'm holding out for the the possibility of Ham Sandwich's for all pilots on duty.

The problem with the iHAM is that you can only use proprietary mustard.

I speculate that some poor sap who loves Jumpgate more than money, or has a real job and no life has volunteered with Themis to GM Jumpgate. Therefore, despite the uncanny accuracy of my original speculation, it appears as though "Themis" is still GMing Jumpgate

Do you really know more than everyone else, or do you just like to pretend you do?

My magic 8 ball said I should consult a fortune cookie. Hate it when that thing passes the buck.

Ambro is doing 8-balls. That explains a lot.

To sorta get this back on topic...The ONLY way Jumpgate is going to increase in numbers is by putting the game back on the shelves.
